Happy New Year!

We would like to wish everyone a healthy and happy new year!

May 2012 bring you peace, love, and happiness.

We are anxious to see what 2012 has in store for us. We have a feeling that it is going to be another great year for our little family.

Here is a little re-cap of 2011 - the ups and downs.

January - Brooke went back to school to pursue a nursing career

April - Adam's career changed slightly by becoming the new K-9 officer for Wright Co

June - Clarion got hit by 12-14 inches or rain in a short amount of time - flooding almost all homes and businesses, including ours. We lost everything in our basement.

August - We took Harper to the Blank Park Zoo in DSM

September - We celebrated Harper's first year of life!

October - We went on our first family visit to the pumpkin patch in Fort Dodge

December - We chopped down our first real Christmas tree as a family and the remodeling of our basement has finally started

All in all, 2011 was a great year for our family! Mostly because of an amazing little girl named Harper, who we get the privilege of calling our daughter! Because of her, we KNOW that 2012 is going to be awesome!

We are going to start 2012 on a good note - a little R&R in Mexico for Adam and I! We leave in 2 days!!! Check back next week for pictures from our trip and from the Bachtle Christmas that we will be having tomorrow!

Have a great year!
