Reflections

2010 was a pretty good year. In the order of occurrence....

-We started it living in our new house that we absolutely LOVE.
-We celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary together. We were both sick, but we still had a great time in Forks getting away from life for a bit.
-David AND Vicki got married to wonderful people. It was a little fast, but they are happy and who can argue with that?
-We got to go to Yellowstone and see all the beautiful wildlife and nature around us. GORGEOUS!
-On the way home from Yellowstone, I got to stop in Billings and see one of my best friends from college. I hadn't seen her since my wedding. That was so much fun!
-We remodeled our family and dining room area to make our house even better than it was before. It feels like a whole new house!!
-We were finally blessed with a positive pregnancy test we so desperately wanted (ok, maybe just me, but Brett is excited now!) We found out that we are having a little boy. I have been able to feel him moving all around and adore it!
-My best friend from basically my whole life moved back to town (I can't remember exactly when it happened, but I have been able to spend the year with her and have loved every second of it! Also, found out that she is pregnant- a week and half ahead of me with her own little boy!)
-I was called to the best calling in the church: RS teacher which I got to do only for 3 months. Bummer.
-We finally got rid of our stove that was at least 20 years old and replaced it with a fantastic gas double oven! Love cooking on gas again. We also upgraded our washer and dryer which has been great for my back.
-Brett and I have the wonderful opportunity to improve our relationship through one of the hardest experiences of my life-me being diagnosed with gestational diabetes. We are struggling to control my blood sugar with just diet and what doesn't kill us will make us stronger right? (It is a new year, so I am trying to take a new outlook on the whole situation. Lets just say that yesterday I really didn't like my husband or this baby. I basically decided for us that this one is the only child we are having....)

So now for 2011. My ultimate goal right now? Just for Baby Huntsman and I to survive the rest of the pregnancy. I want him to arrive happy and healthy. I don't think that is too much to ask!
