Looking back, 2016 has been quite the eventful year for my family and I. From celebrating two milestone birthdays to welcoming a happy and healthy little bundle of joy into our lives, 2017 was definitely been one for the books. I have a lot to be thankful for this past year.
Here are my 10 favourite moments of 2016 (in order of occurrence)...
Here are my 10 favourite moments of 2016 (in order of occurrence)...
We counted down the time as 'just the two of us' and celebrated the outdoorsman's 30th with a Lumberjack Bash (and a big 32 week baby belly).
Little miss Morley entered the world.
We celebrated my 30th with friends, family and BBQ. (It went unphoto-documented.)
We introduced little miss Morley to the family cottage - a 5th generation cottager!
Three years of marriage flew by!
We took a trip to Edmonton, Alberta (also Morley's first plane ride) to visit my sister and celebrate the wedding of two special people.
Baby girl became a mermaid at her first swimming lessons, making this water-loving mama very happy.
I was able to check diving with sharks off my bucket list.
We shared old, and started new, fall traditions, including a visit to the apple orchard and pumpkin patch and pumpkin carving. Morley also celebrated her 1st Halloween and dressed as a pretty cute unicorn.
We celebrated Morley's 1st Christmas which included new and old traditions - a visit to the Christmas tree farm, ugly Christmas sweaters and cookies for Santa.
Side note: Although extremely late, I promise a full recap of Morley's first Christmas is on the horizon.
There are many things I look forward to in 2017, including Morley's first beach vacation, a visit from our Alaskan friends and finally moving into our new home. So far, 2017 is shaping up to be a good one. Who knows what else is in store, but one thing is for sure, 2017 definitely has some big shoes to fill!
What are your favourite moments from 2016? I'd love to hear!
