Long Overdue...

So it's been a year.  A whole year since I've blogged.  2011 was one of the best years I remember.  So many adventures, so many trips and firsts for me.  So why didn't I blog about it?  I like to tell myself that it's because I was so busy living "the dream" that I didn't have time to record it.  But I know that isn't true.  I've come to the conclusion that I was waiting for THE POST, the one everyone including myself has been waiting for.  The one I see on all my friends blogs, facebooks, etc.   The one that announces to the blogging world of friends and family and strangers that something big is coming... Someone is coming.     But they aren't.   At least not yet for us.  And I've decided I can't wait to record our life until then.  Life rolls along with or without the changes we long for and pray for.  And though it isn't the life I'd pictured in days past, it is still one I'd like to record and remember.   So I'd like to attempt at least a couple of catch up posts to retell the wonderful stories of our 2011.  As soon as Justin can get our home computer fixed so I have access to all our awesome pictures.  Lets face it, I can't remember much without pictures to remind the order of things.  :)
