What a year we had! We kept busy with lots of fun activities on the weekend, trips to our cottage in Pennsylvania and Houston with the girls, a solo trip for myself to San Francisco to visit my brother, sister-in-law, and nephews, and two trips for just Todd & I--a cruise to the Bahamas in the summer and a trip to Chicago for a New Year's Eve wedding (tonight!). Lucy started Kindergarten and continued with her second year of tap as well as joining Girl Scouts. Cece started preschool and her first year of dance in tiny tots. This was also the first year that I felt like I had it under control and somewhat together with having 2 kids!

Only downsides here was that I’m not sure if they were expecting such a crowd as they did not have nearly enough servers and sometimes it would take a really long time for service guy to come. But at Los Angeles event venues they tried to keep a smiles on their face.
