Best of 2016

I did a Best of 2015 post last year, and I just love looking back at it, so I thought I would do one for this year as well! We've made some wonderful memories this year, and once again, we have so much to be thankful for.

2016 was a good one. We have been blessed with good health, happiness, and the love of our family and friends. I am so humbled and grateful for all of your incredible support and encouragement this year. Thank you all for reading this blog, and for sharing in our journey.

Here are some of my favourite photos from this year:




And Brennen's school photo. He rocked it!


For me, 2016 will forever be a year to remember. We welcomed the sweetest girl into our family (see update HERE), and while we have always tried to make the most of each day, the days since her arrival have been particularly special.

We are a family of four. Andrew and I tuck two children into bed at night, kiss their cheeks, and feel an enormous weight of gratitude that they are both here. That they are safe, and happy, and oh so loved. There will be days ahead, I am sure, that will not be so blissful. There will be mountains to move and valleys to cross. There will be tears and battles and unanswered questions, but today there is celebrating. I wouldn't trade this life for anything in the world, and we are looking forward to what the future will bring!

What a gift it is to get to enjoy another year with those we love so deeply.

Happy New Year, everyone!
