Happy New Years Eve :) Bring on 2011!!

What a better way to celebrate bringing in the New Year...

but with 75 degree weather...

at a beautiful park.

Cheese-dogs...

baby swinging...

and a little nature trail walking.

THIS, is what I'm all about.

It's what I love about living in a tropical area...

it's why I'm so addicted to the sunshine, I can't function without it.

(no really, I tried).

There can just never be too many, of these days. Ever.

&

I'm pretty sure this lil guy agrees....
Jordan, I promise, one day when you can say, "push me mommy!"...
I will push you until my arm feels like it's gonna fall off.
Because you deserve that.

I will always explore with you...

We will stop to see the fishies...
and take in the colors of the leaves...

We will search for the biggest birdies...

and enjoy the brightest skies...

We will get your high chair full of sand because it's just an object and can be replaced.

Nothing can replace making you happy, and forming memories.

We will take time to enjoy nature.

To appreciate life, and all it has to offer.

And when it feels like it's not offering enough...

we will remember to appreciate what God has given us.. and make the best out of every moment.

Gamma & Grampy will always be there for you too.

As will your Grammy & Grumpa Roberts.

We will visit every little peak and hideaway in natures map that we can possibly reach.

We will continue to teach daddy not to sweat the small stuff....

and he will always be able to make you laugh like no one else can.

We love daddy.

When we're feeling down, we will go outside, and soak up some free happiness.

All the Vitamin D you need.

Right outside of your doorstep.

2011 is a fresh start.

Because 2010 was sure a rough year...

but it gave us YOU. :)

And for that, we can't be mad at 2010.

I have big plans for this year.

And nothing will get in my way.

And when I feel like I want to give up...

I will look outside.

And we will leave our troubles inside.

Go play.

Be kids.

Be positive.

And smile.

It's going to be a good year.

To all of my family and dear friends...

We love you all.
