I can't believe 2013 has come to an end already? It seems like we just rung in 2013 and here we are about to ring in 2014. I hope 2013 brought you many blessings this year.
David and I got to do a lot of fun things this year. Including concerts, and trips, and just fun things around here in Omaha.
In January we went to go see the National Figure Skating championships. That was so much fun. It was nice to see something up close in personal that I normally just sit and watch on TV.
In February I got to experience my very first every circus. I felt like a kid along with all the other kids. It was so much fun.
In March, I went to the Winter Jam Concerts of 2013. I got to see 10 Christian artist all in one concert. It was a lot of fun. I got too see Toby Mac, Jamie Gracie, and New Song just to name a few. It was a PACKED House. The most people I have seen in one location.
In April, We went to go see the Newsboys with our friends from church. I have to say this was my favorite concert all year!
In May my parents visited from Alaska for a week while they were here we went and walked the pedestrian bridge here in Omaha and was able to stand in two state at once.. It is always nice to have family in town. I really truly miss having family just miles away like when we were in Alaska. Family is the most important thing to me. David also went and visited his dad and brother in Portland at the end of May. I am so glad he was able to go see his family too.
In June David and I celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary. Its crazy how fast time flies when you are having fun. We celebrated by going to dinner at a restaurant that was located on a lake which was absolutely beautiful. Also in June our agency puts on a huge fundraiser called Sand in the city where they build giant sand sculptures right here in downtown Omaha. Its great!
In July David spent a week at our youth Summer camp with our church called Super Summer. He talked about that for months afterwards so I guess he had fun. I also got braces put on in July. We also spent much of the summer at the lake on our paddle boat.
August was a crazy but very busy month. The first weekend in August David and I got to go experience the US Open which actually took place right across the street from our house and then I flew to Ohio for a weekend to celebrate my grandpa's 80th birthday and then on the last week of August David and I flew home to Alaska for two weeks.
In September I got somewhere along the lines of 14 inches off my hair and donated it to Locks of Love and I also got to shoot my first gun ever.
In October I went to Vala's Pumpkin patch with my friend Amber's family. It was my first time going to the pumpkin patch and I will never miss a year again!!
In November my aunt and uncle and cousin Timothy came and visited for Thanksgiving. It was so nice having family for Thanksgiving this year.
And December sadly I had to make another trip to Ohio. My grandpa went home to be with Jesus on December 1, 2013. His service was wonderful. He had full military honors and my dad did his service and did a wonderful job too. When I got home we had a Feast at our house with all our friend from church it was alot of fun. We even went and had a Bonfire in 18 degrees.
So as you can tell our year was full of fun and excitment and I can wait to share this with our child one day. Whoever the Lord chooses our child to be will be in a family that like to have fun. I hope you guys have a BLESSED 2014 and we want to thank you for taking the time to stop and read our blog and pray for our adoption. Maybe 2014 will be the year you get good news. Please continue to pray and keep Christ first
Love Always
David and Bekah DeHart
