So wonderful! Loved seeing the pics and hearing what you did in 2008!
What a fun way to recall the year! I love you guys, you're just all so darn adorable! :)
What a cute idea! And these photos are so cute!
I LOVE this post! It's like a Christmas letter but so much cooler! You go girl!
Looks like a great year! I love the idea of documenting the whole year with pictures.
I agree with everyone else...GREAT IDEA and ADORABLE PICS!
I just have to say you are a really good blogger and I'm jealous. I love all the pictures and your great ideas. I'm so lazy about posting pics on mine... and you are so good at conciseness. (Me? Not so much... I can't even leave short comments!) BUT... That's okay because God loves me and made me the wordy woman that I am - even if I like your blog better than I like mine. : )
So what I really mean is good job!!!!! : ) Keep up the great work. : )
