Top 7 of 2014

I started this post on NYE, but stopped because what I planned on being my Top 10 of 2014, turned into my Top 7 things. We truly had a great year, sure we had ups and downs, but overall we had fun with friends, family, at the beach, exploring new places, at the garden, in the pool, on hikes, etc.
So my TOP 10 ended at TOP 7 and that's okay!
On NYE we were all in bed before 10 (YES!!) and I do not regret it!

Around the New Year people usually complain about how it was such a terrible year and they hope the new year will be better, and they can't wait to leave that year in the past. Yeah a lot of junky things seem to happen, I mean out of 365 days the odds of bad days are pretty good and I have been thinking a lot about this the last couple weeks, So that's why I wanted to highlight the good of the year..

My Top 10  7: (not in any particular order)

1.News of another baby. This was some of the best news I could ask for. We were anxious for this babe to get in my belly.



2.Going to Disney World and numerous trips to the Ocean. Owen had such a good time on the trip to WDW, and it was nice to get away with friends. Every trip we took to the ocean we had friends with us, friends make trips so lively! I love friend trips!

3.Visitors. We didn't get to go to Idaho this year but we did have some wonderful company! We had 6 sales people stay with us this summer. My sister Sara and her kids came, my mother came, and Davids sister Kim and most of her kids came!

4.Completing a Whole30. I know people are tired of hearing about Whole30, but I am so glad that I learned about it, and committed to it. It has helped my health so much.



5.Preapproval. We recently got preapproved to buy another house. I am really excited to have my own home, but the looking process is frustrating! Let's hope this house hunt goes faster than our last. One of our friends here just got their Realtor license, so things are starting to kick into gear and I am really excited.


6. Truck. I know this sounds super lame to have this in my TOP, but David got a new work truck and I get to drive it when he isn't. It has been SO nice. Our old car (which I love) didn't have a heater and it has been so cold this winter, I would die without the heater in the new truck!

7.Baby L. This Fall one of my friends had the opportunity to take a teaching job at a local University. She worked 3 days a week, so Owen and I got to tend to her sweet boy the whole semester! We love that little guy so much!!

Maybe I could throw it #8? I am glad Dave never brought Roaches or Bedbugs home (my worst fear), and that I have lived bug free this year!
