You guys. 2013. It happened. It happened in a marvelous way.
We arrived in Le Sueur, Minnesota on December 31, 2012, and started out the
brand new year in a brand new place. It has had its challenges, but they have
been mustard seeds in comparison to our yoga-ball sized blessings.
Chesley continues to work like a mad man to keep our lives
up and running. He worked many 18+ hour days this summer, and always still had
a positive attitude when he got home. He even still had a positive attitude
when he would wake up before 4:00 the next morning to start another long day.
Can we just bottle this positive energy already? We’d be rich. He got more
flight time than last year, and is so excited to be a full time pilot next
year. Finally! Three year old Chesley’s dream comes true!
I am still momming it up around here. Bein’ a mom. I have a hard time finding grown up things to
do sometimes, but building blocks and Bob the Builder will have to do as pass
times for now. The baby and I spent a full three months in Utah and Idaho this
summer while Ches was working those crazy hours. I did have some elderly women
in my parents’ ward concerned about my marriage after such a long trip, but we
managed to stay in love, and the trip was a treat. With Chesley being gone so
much we were right where we needed to be.
Maverik grows and grows and grows! In both stature and
personality. He is busting at the seams with it. He doesn’t say many actual
words, (mama, daddy, and Bob), but he jabbers nonstop in his own little baby
words. He loves to throw, and we are
constantly blocking our faces and flinching away from projectiles. We are
working on clearing up the rules on what can be thrown safely and what draws
blood.
So, we raise our glasses of non-alcoholic sparkling white
grape juice (it’s the best kind) to the passing of another wonderful year. We
hope the Spirit of Christ fills your Holiday season. Loves from the Lewis
family.
