2011 has been a roller coaster. We started the year off with me in a new job and finally falling in love with Birmingham. We settled into an incredible group of friends, were forced to say goodbye to them in June, found out we were expecting in August, and when that was all said and done, realized we were both a little more homesick than we thought. It's been 1 crazy year...definitely more challenging than we anticipated, but I cannot imagine a better partner to go through these ups and downs with me. With 2011 ending, I can honestly say that I cannot wait to see what God has in store for us in 2012. In a few short months we will be welcoming our child into this world. What could be a bigger blessing for the year than that?! (Plus a big tax break! ;)
