January- I was still living in Texas with my parents. Eagerly awaiting our wedding and trying to plan for the wedding. I don't have any pictures of this month because we decided to get married five months sooner than we had originally planned and I was busy trying to figure out all the detail. Needless to say it was a hectic month. I do have a post that I made on new years eve last year, You can read that here.
February- My new favorite month! It consisted of last minute preparations and then the most amazing day of my life. It is also the month I moved away from my home of twenty years in Texas to my new home of almost a year in Georgia. I have tons of pictures for this month but I will post a few of my favorites. I have two posts that I made that month. You can read them here or here.
March- My birthday month! Although I turned Twenty-One, there was nothing extravagant that went on. Seeing that I don't drink, we ended up going to a birthday lunch at olive garden and then had a ice cream cake from DQ! I also started working with my husband at Chick-fil-a this month. I also have a post talking about what was going on during March.
April- Easter month and the first month we visited my family since I moved to Georgia ! It is also the month we adopted Vinny, our sweet baby boy from a family! I am so very blessed for him and the constant joy he brings us.
May- I don't have too much memory of this month. I know we started packing stuff for our move that was coming up in June. We did take a trip to one of my favorite places Beaufort! The only other picture I have is of the root beer we made that month. It ended up tasting horrible and we will never try doing that again.
June- The month we moved from a apartment filled with guys to our own home. Needless to say I was thrilled. We also had a wedding shower that the wonderful people at our church threw us. We are so thankful for them and we now have a furnished home because of it. We were also blessed with having my brother-in-law stay with us for the summer to work and keep us company.
July- I have no pictures nor do I have any big moments in this month. I am pretty sure it was filled with work and spending time with Morgan and my brother-in-law Alec. I do however have post that I made from that month and if you would like to read it I have linked it here.
August- My dear husband's birthday month! Our second birthday of his that we have celebrated together. We spent the day together making steaks and having cold stone. We also made another trip to my other home Beaufort for my wonderful mother-in-law's birthday. August also marked our six month anniversary. You can read about that here.

September- We went to our first braves game together. Even though I am a raised Texas Ranger fan. I will now also be rooting for the Braves and hopefully end up going to more games next year. I also have a picture of some beautiful flowers that Morgan brought home and surprised me with that month. This month I posted about the struggles I was going through and how I made it through.
October- A somber but also a wonderful month. If you are wondering why it was somber you can read that here. It was wonderful because we were able to visit my family back in Texas for the first time in six months. We also enjoyed the cold weather by starting our first fire.
December- It was filled with tons of memories and events. Our first Christmas married!!! We bought an eight foot tree, decorated our home, and spent a whole week with my family back in Texas. I am so very blessed to have spent so much time with the ones I love!!
I am so blessed for the past year! I am so thankful for my amazing husband and my wonderful family. I look forward to what the next year holds!

And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the voice of the Lord your God
