Saying goodbye to 2011

Well, tomorrow will officially be 2012 and like everyone else, I've been thinking about 2011.  Here are the events of what made 2011 memorable for the Walkers.  In no particular order....

1)  We finished wood paneling/Wainscoting our living room and redecorated it to be French parlour, complete with 2 wingback chairs and a settee that I reupholstered myself.  (I took a 6 week upholstery class, so it looks legit.)

2)  I graduated (finally) from Brigham Young University-Idaho with a Bachelor's in Communications with minors in English and Business.

3)  Aaron turned 30 and had a guy's golfing weekend to celebrate.

4)  My sister Emily came to live with us for 4 months on her off-track from college while she was working in Sacramento.

5)  We celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary.

6)  We went to Disneyland with Aaron's side of the family.

7)  We went on a 2 week Mediterranean Cruise to Rome, Greece, Turkey, and Egypt.

8)  In our ward at Church, Aaron has been serving as a Ward Missionary and I have been serving as the adult Gospel Doctrine teacher.

9)  Aaron and I both got promotions at work.  Aaron is now a Tax Manager and I am the Lead Orthodontic Assistant.

10)  We have started and almost completed all of our paperwork for adoption through LDS Family Services.

11)  We attended my sister, Heidi's wedding to Aaron Gillming.

Wow!  I guess we were a little busy this year.  It's nice to look back over the year at all the things you've done.  It makes the year memorable and makes you feel like you accomplished something.  Here's hoping 2012 is just as good!  (Did that feel like a Christmas letter?  Hopefully not.  LOL.)
