May:

- We threw a Cinco de Mayo party!
- A song I wrote was performed by Sky View High School Choir
- We had to cancel all of our Anniversary plans because of my morning sickness... which landed me in the ER.  Fun :)

- Right after we went and cheered as the Aggies were awarded the WAC championship trophy, Carson Brock Taylor was born 11/25/12!!!! The most incredible day of my life :)




December:

- Heather got home from her mission!  We got to see her on her layover at the airport in Salt Lake!
- We spent Christmas with the Thompson family in Salt Lake.  It was wonderful.



We brought in the New Year with a relaxed, fun celebration with just us three at home.  Pigs in a blanket, Martinelli's while making resolutions, and of course, a Mt Dew drinking game!!




So all in all, it was a great year full of ups and downs but ending with a bang!  We are so happy!  Happy New Year everybody!  Here's to a great 2013! :)
