But of course, despite all of that, there were still many good moments. Here is the photographic evidence--everything that didn't fit into another blog post story but that I still don't want to forget. Here's hoping next year is a bit less eventful, but every bit as sweet.
This was the day we found out Chris lost his job. When your boss tells you to take a hike, you take a hike.

What else can you do when the snow looks this inviting?
When Danny went to Dalton's birthday party, they hardly knew each other. Now they are besties!

Ready for summer camp!

Took this picture to preserve Aaron's apropos window art. Realized later that it also shows how badly neglected our lawn was when we returned after two months in Indiana!
Of all the summer camps the kids got to attend, Farm Camp was definitely their favorite.
Jill was all tears the last day of Farm Camp when she had to say goodbye to her favorite chicken, Daffodil.
