2012 Overview

Ok, so 4 hours later I think I can do this....thankful for cel phones and my two youngest to help their mother through this.  Ok, so the year overview.  March we started with a broken foot that took 3 surgeries and the summer of in a boot and rehab, and one knee surgery...completing in Aug.  We Moved Christie from Arkansas to Oklahoma, Beckie from home to Texas, and Kel moved herself down the street from their house to a new house in Hurricane. Dad helped Lindsey move into our house from Idaho Falls.  We had the blessing of a wild crazy summer with the kids and introducing Bernard all 197 lbs. to our house and Tiger.  This of course was after Beckie lived with us and Rio, her dog and a new kitty Dusty were intragated into the household.   Mom Mills passed away, had some extremely special times with her in the end....so grateful.  Beckie and Marques, Dad and I went to Yellowstone....had a ball.  Moved Lindsey out and to California, well she moved herself, and now Dad and I are back to us.  With the Door opening and closing so fast this year, we don't know what to do with ourselves.  I did not go back to work, thankfully, and am traveling with Dad now, good to be with him, most of the time.J/K.  Oh and I I made a trip to christines house.  For November we have gone to Christies house for Thanksgiving and Bec and Marques and gang came up for a wonderful dinner and days together.  Then we drove home to Texas with them and spent the rest of the weekend.  Grandpa and Brendon enjoyed Train Time, and our little Anni man, well she gives us all a run for our money.  Then we flew home for 4 days and then off to Denver for a business trip.  While there we were able to see a pro NFL football game, the Denver Broncos, that was an experience.  I wish I got paid for jogging around the field and catching a ball.  We also saw Richard and Dev for one evening and Gregs Family and Shellys family.  Then last weekend we went to Kels house for dropping Christmas Presents off.  We took the kids to a live Nativity, where they thought that it was funny because the camel did not like Grandma.  I did not like her either.  Home for this week doing final prep for Christmas.  It is much different without the kids around.  We miss them.  Have all 14 stockings hung on our matel, but Santa is lonely.  I am going to check in with this weekly, so hang on for 2013.
