#365 - 2011 Project 365 Recap

This year has been pretty amazing! Not as active as last year it seems, but still pretty good nonetheless. (For 2010 recap you can click HERE.)

I started the Project 365 last January 1st and begin with this POST. It's very interesting to look back over the span of one year and see all of the things that we have done. I'll give a little recap for each month with highlights. So here we go!
January

The girls served me breakfast in bed for my 34th birthday!

I had to have my wisdom teeth pulled and cut out. Fun times!

Brian and I celebrated 17 years of being together!

At the end of January we had a pretty decent snow.

February


We attended the Right to Life Rally in Frankfort at the Captiol Rotunda.

And on our way home from the rally we got to see Brian's Dad in his office for the first time.

Brian had to travel to Knoxville for a class so the girls and I grabbed their school work and went with him!

Holly's 9th birthday!

MarchIsabella turned 1 year old! My beautiful niece and Trent got married in Arkansas!

Anna finished with reading the Old Testament. :)

April I went with Nina and some ladies from her church to the Women of Joy in Sevierville, TN! We're going again this next spring and I can't wait!!! April 18th was 8 years without her.

Anna celebrated her 3rd Spiritual birthday on April 27th!

Our niece, Roni, had her baby boy, Sebastian, on May 10th!

My nephew Kevin's baby girl, Saren Juliet, was born May 13th!


The girls were able to be part of the Battle of Richmond Living History where most of the public school 5th graders in our county came to learn what life would have been like in 1864!

We celebrated Mother's Day and went to visit Mama's grave.

The girls' scores came back good from their standardized tests that they took with the co-op. So my job is secure for a little while longer. :)

June

My nephew David's baby boy, Drake Mason, was born June 3rd.


We went camping up at Blue Licks Battlefield State Park.

We celebrated Father's Day with the world's best Dad!!!

Holly celebrated her 3rd Spritual birthday on September 17th!

Anna's 12th Birthday!

Brian wanted to set up a trail cam at his Papaw's farm for a project with the girls for school. It was a lot of fun to see the various pictures that would show up on there!

October Brian took the girls to play golf at the Par 3 course and gave them some lessons! Anna gave Papaw his painting of his pond while he was still having rehab at the nursing home. He LOVED it!!! The girls and I had our annual photoshoot!

The girls and I stopped by to see some friend's from church while they were making apple butter the old fashioned way and we were able to help!

We went on a field trip with our co-op to our local water treatment plant. Very interesting!

December

The girls and I watched the Christmas parade while they sported their new hats.


The girls did a great job in the church's Christmas play this year! Pa and Nana came to watch them!

Christmas morning 2011.We've had a very blessed year and I'm so grateful for the good times and the bad. I'm glad that I participated in this Project 365 and am able to look back at our year in detail. It is very interesting to see how we spent our year. I pray that we've glorified God in how we've lived our lives. My prayer is that we'll glorify Him even more in 2012!!
Numbers 6:24-26

‘“The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.”’
