January: Start of 2012, My sisters 21st birthday (new Years baby), 2 special little girls birthday, my first hair cut in over 3 years! Yep! Wow! But I really felt like I had no time for it
February: Tax season craze! The people in costumes were always stalking us on the bus. We went to Seaworld opening day. We fed the dolphins! We turned all our family members into Bacon. Leap year (always great to get an extra day) and celebrated Valentines day!
March: Spring Break! See munchkin leaping off the floor playing with water, St.Patricks Day! (lots of green)
April: We had a great Easter! Check out my Easter basket cupcakes I made. I also made my own cascarones and rice krispies eggs! Sadly most of the month I had a horrible Bad ear ache that closed my ear and made it sound like a muffled hum mixed with ringing and pain and endless Dr appts! I spent so much time with my ear against a pillow.
May: Aquatica at Seaworld had its grand opening and of course we had to be there to check it out! Mothers day, SOL (Seeds Of Learning) classes ended and we had a party at the San Antonio Childrens Museum to celebrate a good year (Thankyou to the museum for this amazing free kids program)June: First official day of summer (Although in Texas it feels like Summer most of the time) so we had a lot of fun in the Sun!
July: We saw the fireworks at Seaworld 4th of July. Sadly I stepped on a nail when I was walking outside in my neighborhood and had to get a shot and antibiotics. It made me stay in alot the rest of the month so I could heal.
August: Went to The San Antonio children's museum Free day with Sid the science kid (KLRN kids sponsor), My dads bday, We went to the Witte Museum to see the Darwin Exhibit which was amazing! (Thankyou Maker Mama for the Giveaway) and I officially started blogging (whoo-hoo)!
September: We started going to Play and Learn this fall, We went to the Witte again! We celebrated Grandparents day, started our alphabet journey. We went to Seaworlds Howl-0-Scream
October: We went to National Night out and Munchkin even got to take a picture with Mayor Castro! We went to Howl-O-Scream again, We went to Chalk it up for the first time and loved it. We got lucky to go free to the Botanical gardens and we saw the dinosaurs! We had fun at Treat street and Coffins on parade on the Riverwalk. Had a spooky Halloween! Most important of all we celebrated my munchkins 4th bday!
November: We went to Dia de los Muertos events and the Diwali festival of Lights. We went to Seaworlds Christmas Celebration, celebrated my birthday and my brothers. Had fun at The San Antonio Childrens museum. Got in the holiday spirit when we went to see Santa on the Riverwalk.
December: We went to the Zoo to see Santa deliver presents to the animals, We went to the San Antonio Museum of Art for a special book launch, Survived the end of the world again, and had a Beautiful Christmas! Now getting ready for a New Year!

DeleteI loved getting to read your year in review. I can't wait to read your first haircut in three years post. I haven't had a haircut in at least 8 months and my hair has some major split ends but I never have time to get a haircut.
ReplyDeleteThankyou! I actually didnt start blogging until August so I dont have a blog for my first haircut.
DeleteLet me give u the gist: grocery shopping I see they have a hairsalon inside of the walmart we're in and my hair was beyond control so i get haircut (first in over 3 yrs) I dont rush her. i tell her one length around and when shes done I trust its fine since its her job to cut hair. i have a kid crying and I need to get the groceries home so i say ok thanks pay, pick it up and plan on washing and blowdrying at home so I can play with my hair. I get home put away food then look at my hair and want to cry! it looks like a hack job! It was in so many crooked lengths as if my son had cut it. I have to get scissors and try to trim it. I only told 2 people since I was so embarassed that i hadnt payed attention to my haircut after so long of waiting! But now Im telling you. Pay attention when getting a haircut!
Hey there! I just wanted to thank you for linking up to It's Freakin' Friday blog hop! Hope to see you next week! :)
