I loved doing a recap of my year last year--it was fun to look back at all of the fun and exciting things that had happened over the last 12 months, so I thought I'd do it again this year! Plus, it's a fun way for new readers to get some background info, too!
{January}
~We rang in the New Year with a big group of friends
~Shared some funny kid stories from work
~Had a bunch of snow days and cold weather days off from work--woohoo!
~Started doing Piyo and loved it!
~Got Cooper on seizure meds--which was the best decision we ever made for that little guy. Knock on wood, we haven't seen a seizure since!
~Recapped our honeymoon....only about 8 months late...lol
~MG returned from being away in China for 3 weeks...and with gifts!
~We painted more trim, doors and walls in the house, and updated the door hardware from brass to bronze on every door in the house (you never realize how many doors you have until you have to paint and change the hardware on all of them)
~Started watching The Good Wife at our friend Meredith's suggestion and immediately were hooked for months
~Made copy cat Bang Bang shrimp which was a huge hit in our house
{February}
~I shared MG's and my experience going through trying for a baby, and the perspective I got from a friend's situation
~Got my new Michael Kors watch which is still a favorite of mine and worn frequently:
~Had a blate with Christy over sangria--the first of many this year
~Celebrated Valentine's Day with MG and his family in PA
~Did a Valentine's date night at Paint Nite with MG--he's such a good sport trying new things with me!
~More snow days...
~Got a haircut and a cute pair of glasses from Firmoo
{March}
~Got a new rug for the dining room:
~Made the best tasting egg salad recipe ever!
~My best friend came up for my birthday weekend celebrations:
~Got my MK crossbody for a birthday gift. Still loving and using that one all the time, too!
~Finally got to try out Yard House with the hubs
~Shared some of my favorite wine accessories
~Planned and packed for our anniversary trip to Punta Cana
Lots happened in the first three months of the year! The next three months were packed with lots of fun, too as we had our anniversary trip and the end of the school year!
Hope you liked the trip back down memory lane for this year. Next up: April, May and June!

It honestly seems like all those snow days were so long ago...I wonder if we'll have any at the start of next year haha!! Can't wait for the next half of the review!! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteLove the recap! And yes, there are a ton of doorknobs that you don't realized until you have to change them out! So daunting!

I want the bag!! My birthday is in two weeks! Crossing my fingers I get it :) Looks like a great start to 2015!!
ReplyDeleteThese posts have been a godsend as I was a terrible blogger this year!!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute post! And I agree, you really never know how many doors you have until you're in that situation! We did the same when we moved into this house and I wanted to scream! ;)
ReplyDeleteI have loved following along all year and will continue to do so! You are adorable and I'm sure we would be great friends in real life ;) gotta make that happen one day!! Xoxo
ReplyDeleteY'all have had a very just year to say the least. My husband went to Japan for a week this past year and it was so hard to not talk to him, I can't imagine him being gone for three weeks! And painting classes are so much fun! I'm glad that you were able to convince MG to do it with you!
ReplyDeleteStill loving that MK watch on you! And I need to get to one of those paint nights, they look like so much fun <3

Girl, you've had a busy but great year! Can't wait to see what 2016 has in store for you! And I'm still loving your MK watch too! So pretty! <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
ReplyDeleteholy moly you got a lot accomplished in a short time - all fun things! cute MK cross body and watch - i have two MK watches i wear nonstop!
ReplyDeletexoxo cheshire kat
Why does that all sound like it was yesterday... the painting.... but it looks so good now.
ReplyDeleteY'all had a busy 3 months! You can't go wrong with a MK watch!
ReplyDeleteI love doing this too - it makes it such fun (and easy!) to look back on the year. I love how you broke it up three months at a time - great idea! What a fun start to 2015 you guys had - so hard to believe we're about to start 2016!
ReplyDeleteI love these types of recap posts :) Your Valentine's date looks like so much fun and that watch is phenomenal.
ReplyDeleteJanuary of last year seems light years away but it's not. Good stuff in the first three months!
ReplyDeleteI can't even believe that we're at the end of the year already!! Time flies! Poor Cooper, I had no idea he was having seizures :( And now I'm off to read about your honeymoon!
ReplyDeleteI love recapping my year too. I remember all the snow days you had earlier this year...lucky! Also love all the fixing up, painting and decorating you've done over the months.
ReplyDeleteWow y'all did a lot the first 3 months! Year end recaps are the best!!
ReplyDeleteI really want to do one of those wine/painting nights with my husband but he has been resistant so far... I think I should set it as a 2016 Goal.. :-) they look like fun!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful year hun♥

What a fun idea! Love the paint job you did! Looks fab and the MK watch is so nice! Looking forward to seeing the next three months and learning more about you!
ReplyDeleteThese posts are so much fun! I love it.
ReplyDeleteI remember reading your perspective post back in February and was just in awe of the grace and gratitude you have! I remember thinking "wow, this is really someone that I look up to!". Looking forward to the rest of your year in review!
ReplyDeletethis is such a great idea for a post...love the recap of each month, it's so much easier than trying to put together an entire year at once.
ReplyDeleteI really love the paint color your chose for your walls. It looks very pretty!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful year in review. You should link this up tomorrow on the 2015 Blogger Year in Review. Here's the link - http://www.wifemommyme.com/2015/12/wife-mommy-me-year-of-growth.html or see my blog for details. Thanks for sharing on Tuesday Talk this year.
ReplyDeleteI love the recapping!! I didn't start following until later on so this is definitely fun to read!
ReplyDeleteThis is SO smart! I want to do a year in review for my blog too! I may have to copy your idea ;) It was fun to read about your year and it looked like 2015 was a fab year for you, I hope you have a very fun last three weeks of the year!!

It's crazy to think how long ago all this happened! You had a great start to the year, that's for sure.
ReplyDeletegood idea to separate your review into a few posts. i usually one big huge takes forever to put together post. i got a new michael kors watch this year too, and i LOVE it!
