2012 is a year I would be more than happy to not repeat. We had many trials and were blessed in so many ways. David although he might not agree had the best year. He also showed us all how much he loves us and what a great dad and priesthood holder he really is! If anything 2012 was the year that reminded me why I married that man.
In 2013 we hope to:
-Have no surgery
-Camp, fish, hike and cookout on the mountain.
-See family in the valley
-River raft?
-Enjoy life!
-A vacation? To where we don't know.
-Make up for all the things we wanted to do last year.
