Tangled Thoughts

January:

Mr JD was born.  I asked Amanda to join me in blogging.  I took a picture everyday that month.  She wrote her first post.  It was very.  VERY cold.

February:

Was a busy yet fun month.  Dad and I left for England and met up with mom who was already there.  Met Mr JD, and spent two weeks there together, and then mom and dad went home while I stayed.  It was awesome fun.

March:

David, Amanda, JD and I all went to Scotland.  And had a blast.  I really don’t think I wrote much about that, but the memories that come flooding back when I type “Scotland” tell me it was one of the best trips I have ever had.  I had a heck of a time trying to get home.  I started “Whats Cookin.”

April:

Was my birthday!  I drew some cartoons that still make me laugh & reflected on some past times.  Amanda wrote about carrot cake, and apparently we had some sun!

May:

Was mothers day.  And a seemingly quiet month as we soaked up the sun.  Amanda went cold turkey on the internet, and wrote about her adventures without it.  I wrote a post or two on a few deeper thoughts.

June:

We had two birthdays!  Mom and Amanda both turned another year older.  I took some “Pretty” pictures, and Amanda wrote a post to accommodate the unknown holiday of “6-6-12”

July:

Was our main month of summer weather here.  There wasn’t a whole lot of posting (aside from summery pictures).  We contemplated the age old question of carry on luggage only, and celebrated the 4th of July.

August:

It was my turn to face the dreaded internet issues, and I must say Amanda handled her lack of internets in May much better than I did.  Amanda, David, and JD went to London during the Olympics and saw the marathon runners FIRST HAND!  Mr JD apparently grew up.  David had a birthday (and no one blogged about him.  Woops!)

September:

The rats moved in, and attempted to take over.  Amanda defined some British words for us all, and I took some of my favorite flower pictures.

October:

Was another seemingly quiet month online atleast!  We talked about Halloween, I wrote to mom and kept up pretty much most of the month with You Capture (which was my goal last year).

November:

I posted everyday one thing I was thankful for, and while it was hard to get rolling at first – at the end I was thinking to continue it a few more months.  A few that stick out are: #5, #8, #18, #22, and #30.  I also wrote one of my favorite posts about the pickle family.  November was a thank-FULL month.  I tagged all my thankful posts here too.

December:

And then December happened.  I apparently, wrote only about plants.  And Amanda wrote three different DIY posts about Christmas styled crafts.  We got some snow, and Yoshi was THRILLED
