Celebrating a Year and a Half!

Since I haven't blogged in about 6 months, I thought today would be the perfect opportunity. Today, October 28, 2013, marks a year and a half since Matt and I got married! So let's do a little recap of what happened during this year and a half.

April 28, 2012- The most wonderful day of my life, our wedding

 
 
April 29, 2012- We honeymooned in Riviera Maya
 
 
June 2012- I got glasses and I donated my hair for the 4th time (this was my goal since 4 donations make a wig). 

 

August 5, 2012- We started teaching Sunday school to the most wonderful group of 5th grade girls. Oh how we love them so very much! (This picture is actually their first week in 6th grade, but you get the idea)
 
 
December 1, 2012- Alabama won their 23rd SEC Championship! Roll Tide!
 

January 7, 2013- Alabama won their 15th National Championship in Miami, Florida! Roll Tide (again)!
 
March 2013- I started my own business, Harper Creek Boutique, making children's clothing. I eventually had my items in three boutiques in Alabama.
 
March 16, 2013- We planted out first garden. :)
 
 

April 1, 2013- Yes, on April Fools Day we found out our lives would change forever. We were pregnant with out first sweet child. :) (The left one is the pregnancy test.  The right one was the fertility test.  Since I didn't think I was preggo, I thought I would check at the same time to see if I was fertile...ha! Big surprise!)

 
April 28, 2013- We celebrated our one year anniversary at Walt Disney World and Cocoa Beach!

 
 
 
 
 July 19, 2013- We found out we were having a sweet little girl.  The following day we had a gender reveal party and announced that her name would be Brylee Marie Franklin.



August 1, 2013- We visited Burlington, Ontario to hear about a job offer Matt received.  We got to visit Niagara Falls while we were there.


September 5, 2013- We moved to Burlington, Ontario to start our little adventure. Here we are hiking the Bruce Trail.



I only hit some highlights, but as you can see a lot happened in a year and a half for us! We are now less than 6 weeks away from welcoming our Brylee girl into our lives. I can't possibly explain how wonderful the last year and a half being married to Matt has been, and I look forward to many, many more exciting adventures together!
