The Grahams: The amazing year of 2008....

This past year has been crazy, fun and completely unpredictable. We had so much going on I had to sit down and try to remember it all. the first thing that I could think of in 2008 was are trip to sunriver with Ben and Brandy and the kids. We try to go somewhere every year in February and we ended up in Sunriver this year with matching condos it was a blast although I think it was the coldest it has ever been it was 1 degree the entire time... the kids had the greatest time and sunriver was pretty deserted because school was in so if I hadn't have been pregnant with the soon to be Liam we def. would have hit the Mountain with are snow boards. Be we had an amazing time just hang out and playing with the kids in the snow. Then as the year went on I decide to sign Owen up for swimming Lessons he was completely in love with it the first day. I knew he would be he is so in love with the water, We went every Tuesday and Thursday and I think I had to remind Owen a million times a week that it was only two days but he was completely in to going every day. It was so much fun we were sad it ended I am signing him up for the next class and I know that he cant wait. We still bring him back to the Dallas pool time to time and he loves it. And of course the biggest part of are 2008 was the arrival of are beautiful Liam 8pounds 3 ounces . We welcomed him on April 30Th at about 8:03. I had a really easy birth with him I actually was laughing while I was delivering him but if you were in their with Gregory you would too he does not handle stress that well but he keeps me calm because I always know he will stress out enough for the both of us. and about two weeks after the arrival of a perfect baby boy we celebrated Owen's second birthday it was the perfect day we had a cowboy party at Nana's with ponies and it was so hot all the kids really spent most of their time in the water. Summer was the best this year we bought a brand new camping trailer last year and we finally got to take it out once the weather warmed up a bit although we didn't really wait we went in the rain about 3 weeks after we had Liam. we started the summer off by making about two to three reservations a month at different camp grounds including Shasta. then we would just go anywhere that was open on the other days. We went camping so much are camper began to feel like are second home. I would have to say we are camping pro's. This was all when Greg still worked 4 days on 4 days off and we would just spend all his 4 days camping. Camping is Definitely something that me and Greg never get tired of we are extremely outdoorsy people we love it in fact Greg's dream life would to be to live in the woods around no one else in a log cabin and live off the land. I would have to say I love the camping but I couldn't live in no deserted woods I love shopping and hot baths that I don't have to boil the water by myself. and towards the end of the summer Greg convinced me we needed to sell MY quad to buy a Rhino :( but I do have to admit we have got a lote of use out of the Rhino already especially during hunting season and the big snow storm. and as the summer was almost gone we had to very big things to celebrate mom was finally done with treatments and cancer free Yeah finally!!! Me and Greg also got to celebrate are 5Th year together and are one year wedding anniversary WOW!!! We took the weekend together and had an amazing time in Hood River.
