January: I turned 24 and started the year off another year older. I am suspecting that after this year I will stop getting as excited for my birthday considering I am starting to actually get old, but until then, I will still count down until the 13th and make sure everyone knows it is my birthday month and week! I at this time lived in Hutchinson Ks, and was supporting a lot of Hutch community college women's basketball games!
February: Mainly I did a lot of traveling and watching basketball. I enjoy being at all the games wherever Keith is at and being able to cheer on his teams. I was also able to get back to MNU and watch my brother's team play.
March: This month was exciting! Not only more basketball, but a regional championship and a National Runner up came to the Hutchinson Lady Blue Dragons. During this time, we had a true blessing become a part of our family. Baby Reese was born and joined older brother Cade and parents Matt and Jana to this world. She is a doll and one of the most perfect babies I have ever seen!
April: Keith turned another year older ( I wont mention how old he is getting) :) and we were able to head up to KC to enjoy a Royals baseball game with many friends. It was a relaxing trip that didn't deal with watching any basketball!
May: What a relaxing month! I did not have much of anything going on and it was so nice to be able to just hang out and return home to see family and friends whenever I needed/wanted to go back.
June: I found out in June that Keith would be taking a new job in Monroe, Louisiana. Of course at the time, I thought this was the end of all time. I had no idea where to go or what I was supposed to do! He did a lot of recruiting and we enjoyed his last couple weeks in Kansas. We enjoyed playing (or trying to play) lots of golf!!
July: We started off with a bang (clever, huh?) with a 4th of July party back home with many of our friends. It also counted as a going away party for Keith, as we moved him down to ULM the following week. I spent a lot of time back home between work and the weekends. At the end of July, Cindy, Lukas and I got to make a trip to Omaha and enjoy a great couple days with Christy. We had so much fun just getting to hang out as sisters again all together.
August: School and basketball had started for Keith, and I was continuing to live in Hutch. I had met some great people there and enjoyed having BBQs and co ed softball games every week!
Septemeber: This was the first time I was able to go see Keith and I flew down over Labor Day weekend to spend some time with him. I set up two places I wanted to visit with, just to see if maybe someday I could see myself down there. As you know by now, I got offered a job and I was heading South.
November: so many things to be thanful for! I was starting to feel more comfortable around Monroe and traveled to Dallas for the first basketball game, as well as the TCU vs KSU football game where I met up with lots of friends to enjoy this time. I was able to fly back for Thanksgiving and spend time with a lot of family.
December: I had been waiting for this month for awhile! I didn't work much and I did a lot of vacationing! I went to Hawaii and enjoyed a nice beach week! I returned home to the rest of my family and had a great Christmas! I saw many people and enjoyed the relaxing time. We also had a great time ending 2012 with some great people! Happy New Year!
As I look back on this year, I am so thankful for who and what I have in my life! I have had many wonderful opportunities and blesssings! Thank you all who were apart of helping me get through this year and look forward as to what is to come!
**I know this technically goes into 2013, BUT my sister Christy was proposed to on New Year's to an amazing guy that we are all very excited to be joining our family! Many plans to come in the next couple months!! Congrats guys!!
