2011 in a Glance for the McGee's

Dear 2011,

You started out as the hardest year for me as I was still in grief over our lost baby. We decided to Take a trip to the Caribbean  but after looking at prices decided to go to Europe on our Dream Cruise the  Mediterranean Cruise!! we booked it in January!  and then got to add our family with Lance's Brother getting married in March Lance decided he wanted to be A Chiropractor and in turn started our applications to schools... April 27 we flew across the country to Venice Italy! spent 3 days there and then shipped off our amazing cruise where we got to see Italy in its finest! Rome, Pompeii, Florence, Taramina where we had the BEST GELATO EVER! oh how i miss Gelato!!  We fell in Love with Italy!! May came and we celebrated 4 years! and heard back form both schools that Lance got accepted! June Lance picked Texas. Parker University! July brought much happiness as we found out we were pregnant again. August found us heart broken that yet again we lost our baby. August  also found us MOVING! the 19th found us in Addison Texas in a cute 2 bedroom 1 bath apartment. September Lance started school and Brittany started working out!  September was a pretty emotional month for Brittany. October came and Brittany finally got a job at Dollar Tree. November came and Lance was passing all his classes and doing great in school. Brittany won a weight loss competition and got a second job at Wells Fargo.
December is here and its been a way better one than last year!. December marks the end of Lance's first Trimester in which he Passed  with 3 A's and 3 B's! which is AMAZING!! He did amazing! We get to spend Christmas in the Lonestar state this year :) just the two of us and we are excited for that but we do miss our family's sooo much!  So 2011 thank you for all the laughs they amazing Gelato and the heartbreak it has been a good tough great year. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Love ,
The McGee's

p.s.
2012 we would really like to have a baby. please let it be our baby year.
