2013 was an amazing, busy, challenging, and happy year for us! When I asked Colt to describe this year he described it perfectly by saying it was a year of change. Not just change but significant change! We welcomed a beautiful baby girl in January and began our most important adventure. We bought a house, a fixer upper, and are still in the process of renovating. We both changed jobs, Colt twice. He's settled in at Pierce refurbishing and building firetrucks and I'm learning to love my role as wife and mommy, or "Chief Home Officer" as I've heard it called (it sounds legit!) On top of all that we have a new home church and are on the worship team under my dad, Colt is a deacon and I'm Children's Ministry leader. We've been stretched financially because of my change to the home front and we've been challenged in our relationship as we balance being mom and dad with being husband and wife. So how do we feel looking back on this year? Tired! This year was busy and we have so much to be thankful for, but we're worn out. As we've talked about this last year we have a lot to look forward to in 2014. Now that we feel established in our roles, jobs, house and church we can kind of breathe again and embrace next years joys and challenges with renewed spirit. We serve an amazing God. We both feel ready for a new year and are quietly reflecting on all that was in 2013. Here are some highlights..

And then this to what it is now (I'll do a separate post with updated pics!)
And rounding out the year with lots of family time!
