Sorry it has been awhile since my last post....the holidays always get me all wrapped up and I never get things done in a timely fashion. Which is why I've spent most of this morning cleaning up and trying to make my house liveable again. However I am back again today with my Tears and Cheers of 2012....a look back on the year and the events that took place. Also I am stealing the A-Z thing from over at Fueled and Aflame because it looked like fun and reminded me of the old Myspace days of taking silly quizzes and passing them along to your friends.
First off Tears of 2012:
--I attended 19 funerals this year of various family and friends. One being for my wonderful grandfather that was taken from us too soon and one for my great grandmother who had just celebrated her 90th birthday. It was a very hard year....I will miss each and every person that we lost...
--My aunt discovered that she has breast cancer. She went in and had a double mastectomy on the 21st. The good news is it was not as bad as they had thought and had not spread to her lymph nodes. She is actually doing really great, but it has still been difficult.
Now the Cheers of 2012!
---In May I married the love of my life! He's amazing and the wedding was wonderful. I am so lucky to have had all of my loved ones there....It was the first time in 30 years my Mom and her siblings had all been together with their parents....and unfortunately it was the last time as well. I will cherish that day for always.
-- I got to go to Harry Potter World on my Honeymoon. It was a complete surprise planned by my husband and it was so much fun! I am a total Harry Potter nerd and I have to say that I loved every minute of the trip! It was so awesome being surprised even if I normally hate surprises!
-- In October we found out that we are going to be parents! Due June 19th 2013, our little one is growing strong and healthy! Last week we got to see the ultrasound and baby was kicking away! Too early to know the sex yet but it made everything so very real to see the image of our baby. Also we are only having one (whew!) which is good since twins run in the family! It is so exciting that our family is about to grow...I can't wait to meet the little one!

"Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."
