Year in Review
This year has been quite a year for the Hughes household.
In February we found out that we were expecting & planned our trip to Paducah to tell the folks.
In March/April we headed home to tell them the exciting news. I stayed for a week or so to hang out and enjoy the time with family.
In May, we moved from the Presley apartments to north Dallas with the help of my dad, brother, Kimberlins, Parkers, and the Morris family.
June was full of doctor’s appointments and anticipation for family coming to visit.
The Anderson folks came in July while the Hughes parents came in August. The visits were fun but the weather was HOT!
In September we headed home for a visit before the baby was born. It was great getting to go home, but the plane rides at 7 ½ months pregnant wasn’t much fun! They don’t make planes with pregnant women in mind!
October began with high blood pressure & being put on bedrest, but it ended with a cute bundle of joy. Miss Sydney Kate was born on October 20th.
November we decided to be “dumb” and head home (a normal 10 hour drive with an infant and dog). The trip went GREAT. Both baby and dog were well behaved on the drive to and from KY. It was great to see family that we wouldn’t normally get to see. Letting them all meet Sydney was so much fun.
In December, we celebrated Christmas with the Anderson clan. It wasn’t a normal KY Christmas, but it was great having some down time with family. This last weekend (New Year’s weekend) we mostly stayed home and hung out as a family. It was great having Ryan home for a few days.
Our year has been full of blessings. This year has definitely been a year where the blessings greatly outweighed the trials. Our family has increased as well as our love for each other. God has really smiled on us this year.
We look forward to this next year and all the great things that are to come.
