Bye Bye 2012






 Here is a questionnaire I have seen going around in the blogging world....

1. What are you most thankful for? In 2012 I am most thankful for my handsome husband and beautiful girls. I am very thankful for My Mom and My husbands grandmother who both were by my side helping me when I was so sick with hypermesis. I am so Thankful for all of my family who have just been by our side. I am thankful that I have a home, food, and we are able to live a beautiful life.

2. What were the highlights of 2012 for you? Of course the number one highlight for us was EMERY ADDISON being born. My pregnancy was not so easy, but oh so worth it. Emery is just so amazing I'm completely  in love with her.  Also watching Coraline grow another year older as truly been amazing. She is such a blessing to my life. For some reason, my birthday is really sticking out to me,Nikki made me a birthday cake and we had a very simple dinner .. perfection.

3. What are you hoping for in 2013? For 2013 My prayer is to not live another day feeling like I'm not living the life I'm suppose to be living. I want to grow as a wife,mother,child of God. I want to look back at this year and see an improvement in who I am. I know in my heart I need to make changes in my life and My prayer is to have the courage to make my dreams come true.

4. What were some of your favorites of 2012? (Clothes, movies, songs, TV shows, ) My favorites of 2012 Clothes would be my Old Navy Rockstar black skinny jeans. My favorite movie is Red State although this movie came out in 2011 I didn't watch it until 2012 and I really loved it. My favorite TV show would have to be Grimm This is not something I would typically be into but for some reason I really love it .. kinda freaks me out sometimes lol. My favorite song is ":Stay,Stay,Stay" by Taylor Swift. I also Love instgram! I have a bunch of favorites but I plan to start blogging all my favorites every Friday so I don"t want to give them all away.

5. Who was God to you in 2012? (and if He was nothing to you - please be honest. You don't need to give Sunday school answers. I want to be able to pray that He will be something to you this year!)  God was/is comforter, refuge and encourager to me.
