Overdue Post Part 1: Life Outside of the House

I'm a total slacker. I made a goal of posting at least once a month last year, and totally failed. On the months that I missed, I said I would double up the next month and I didn't. Sue me. Part of why I haven't posted is because I've been so busy being blog worthy. So busy in fact, that I'm splitting this into a 3 part post- Part 1: Life Outside of the House, Part 2: The Not So Surprise Renovations, and Part 3: A Home for Cuddles- titles are subject to change. I'm hoping to get these 3 parts written and out before life creates a part 4, but, based on my track record, no promises will be made.

The past few months have been exciting! We discovered that Fozzie loves kayaking...

He also loves running...

Derek is a fabulous truck driver, but I am a superior go cart driver...

Our niece is quite the fashionista...

She loves the dress up box we made her for Christmas!

I drank around the world...

But mostly I just read...

...and read...

...and read.

And when I wasn't reading, I was running...

Disney Princess running costumes for Halloween!

...and running...

...and running.

That is until I hurt my foot...

Sexy shoe!

But never fear, I got back to running...

The best thing that happened in the past few months though was.... CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!

The spread at the Goodfriend Annual Christmas Brunch

Brunching!

Did I mention I did a of of reading?

Every boy goes through a homeless beard phase.

Daddy! <3

You are never too old to play with remote control toys with your brother

January was fabulous too! We got to ring in the new year together...

Happy New Year!

I went strawberry picking...

Gotta taste test while strawberry picking

I went on a '90s pub crawl!!!

Hey Arnold!

And I went on an awesome girls trip to 3 different wineries and a brewery...

Where I discovered that there IS a benefit to being an adult- souvenirs are WAY better!!!

And I had WINE ICE CREAM!!!!!!!!!

Life outside the house has been pretty busy and really awesome, but, unfortunately, life isn't completely out of the house...

To Be Continued....
