A review of 2012

To close out 2012 I had thought it would be neat to do a review of some of the year.
I'm always slow at things and many blogs that I read did the same thing in a more timely manner than I!  I really enjoyed the photo collages a friend did so I decided to go that route.
(Sorry to be a copycat Susan!)

• Julia sharing her birthday hat & backpack with Isaac
• Sweet siblings holding hands on our morning walks
• Isaac is hilarious when he sees beggar weeds on anyone's clothes!  He will not rest until he has picked the very last one off.  :)
• The 5 monkeys enjoying Isaac being big enough to sit with them at the table for breakfast
• Showing off their cookie flowers from a school project we did
• Mercy & Isaac sit beside each other in the truck, they often hold hands and it is so precious!
• Isaac wanted to help the big kids bring in the trash cans one day
• Caleb & Isaac playing in a load of rocks that my dad had for a project he was doing

Praying you all had a blessed 2012!
