| January 2011 |
2011 began with a trip to the beach, the frozen, cold beach at Indiana Dunes State Park for Jeff's birthday. Who says you can't go to the beach for your winter birthday?
 |
| February 2011 |
February we were back to the dunes area to attend a special wedding.
 |
| March 2011 |
In March, a teenager was born! I have to say he is not your typical teenager. He is a fine young man who has plans to use his giftedness in big ways! (Watch out Microsoft.)
 |
| April 2011 |
The last day of April, we headed out on our first camping trip in our new-to-us camper!
 |
| May 2011 |
In May, we were back to the beach. This time we could stay awhile.
 |
| June 2011 |
In June, for Father's Day we camped near my father's home. It rained, but we kept dry in the camper. Thankfully, we were able to swim one day in the fun pool.
 |
| July 2011 |
In July, we celebrated Grace's 12th birthday in Chicago!
 |
| August 2011 |
August found us beginning 4th, 6th, and 8th grades. Surprisingly, we did not go camping in August.
 |
| September 2011 |
But, oh in September, we were back and enjoying spectacular views!
 |
| October 2011 |
Trevor turned 10 in October. Jeff and I also celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary. I also had a birthday in October.
 |
| November 2011 |
There was much to be thankful for in November.
 |
| December 2011 |
And much to be celebrated in December! 2011 was a great year and I thank the Lord for His faithfulness to us.
Happy New Year!

Beautiful review of your beautiful family!
ReplyDeleteHappy 2012!!!!
A pretty great year!
ReplyDeleteUpon reading your wonderful round up for the year, makes me think I must get cracking on my roundup.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoyed your night out on New Year's Eve.
Couldn't help noticing your mention of your 17th wedding anniversary in October, we celebrated our 17th anniversary in November!!
Super review Jenn. I was just going to do a review & goals post, but yours will make mine look not so picturesque. :) I see a camping theme running through your 2011. Wow, I forgot that you just started using your camper in April...it seems like you have had it for 2 years now. It looks like it was a great year for you all. May God Bless your 2012 all the more. ♥
ReplyDeleteI think I miss some with my slow internet! I didn't realize you had a camper. I knew you went camping, but didn't know that! We got a pop-up camper back in August. We enjoyed 2 trips to state parks this fall. Love it! Can't wait for spring...actually I'd love to try a at least one winter trip. Not sure if that will happen; maybe late winter.
ReplyDeleteGreat review of your year. Blessings on 2012!
What a fun list to read. Sounds like you had a great year. Can't wait to see more of your camping trips this year. :)
ReplyDeleteLots of smiles in 2011! That beach looks so inviting especially today!

ReplyDeleteIt looks like 2011 was a really nice year for you all, and I hope that 2012 is just as blessed!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful year! Are you going to go camping as much this year? Praying blessings on 2012! ((HUGS))
