The Davis Dish, Dive In!: What A Year 2012

I don't think I could thank all the people who made 2012 such a wonderful year for us. Even though there were ups and downs there always will be and that is just how life rolls. It definitely kept Kelby and I super busy, having a two year old, buying a new home and much more in between.

I kept pretty busy as far as work goes, thanks to friends who have turned into clients. They have kept me from being bored and allowed me to help make their homes beautiful. I can't wait to post some of their homes on my local business facebook page. I love my job and can't say that enough! On top of work buying our new home has had to be a favorite this year. I love all the room we have and I love being able to actually decorate my home how I have wanted for a long time{i am a little more impatient with my own}. I also kept busy with JLM community service project Lester. I love my placement and this is my second year of doing this. Lester is just like my second family here, I have enjoyed getting know the families more. And lastly our busy little guy, who seriously can't sit still for very long. He keeps me on my toes and I think my in-laws and parents now understand why I am so...tired. I love my little man to death. He makes me laugh, cry and mad but that is how it should be! I see bits and pieces of both myself and Kelby's personality coming out in him. I always tell Kelby that the "drama king" in Lincoln is all him!

Kelby got to do some international travel this year and will continue to do so this next year. This past year he traveled to Canada a couple of times and then in October to Sao Palo, Brazil for two weeks. When he wasn't traveling he trained for the St. Jude marathon. This wasn't his year has far as time for the marathon but to me even trying to run one is a feat. This was Kelby's second, he ran the New Orleans Rock n' Roll with our friend Jamie in March. If he wasn't traveling or running he was here at home helping me work on our guest bathroom, painting, working on the pool and yes some relaxing.

Well as you know Lincoln is a busy little body. The first of 2012 wasn't very fun for Lincoln but it definitely got better. He had ear infections and then for most of February and March was sick. It wasn't until after we got back from the NOLA marathon that we found out our little guy had RSV. Yuck! Luckily for us he was only out of commission for a week, unknowingly it was probably 3 weeks. However, he bounced back and before we new it he turned 2. WHAT A CHANGE! He has grown so much this past year he really isn't our baby anymore, he's a little boy. No more baby chubs! Long legs, big feet and big kid toys and attitude!ha. I can't really pick out a very favorite time but I will say this fall was pretty fun. He now is getting the gist of things Halloween CANDY, Thanksgiving GOOD FOOD, and Christmas SANTA, GIFTS and RUDOLPH.

So here are some pics from 2012.
