1. Ringing in the New Year with friends
2. Visiting St. George often
3. Quick trip to Hoover Dam with my lover, Mom & Step Dad

6. 4th of July traditions
7. Frehner family reunion in Mesquite. Perfect!
8. Visiting with Jake's Oma while she was here. It was her last visit ever and I threw her an "un-birthday party" & she loved it. She's amazing.

13. Thanksgiving in St. George with my side of the fam
14. Hearing my other set of Grandparents are moving to St. George. Cannot wait for them to be close
15. Texas vacation with my girl's & Hawaii vacation with my bestie. Something I'll never forget!
16. Spending the holidays with our families and friends
17. Having a VERY understanding and supportive, amazing, selfless husband through all of the good & the bad
18. Concerts with my FAVORITE people. Limo rides, front row seats & nights I will NEVER forget.

{Lows of 2011}
1. Learning I have severe Endometriosis
2. Having a horrible surgery to help clean up the Endometriosis
3. Learning that I may not ever have babies because of the Endometriosis
4. Putting my super understanding and amazing husband through hell & back while I dealt with emotions, medications & other issues. I'm very lucky to have him.
*Stupid Endometriosis anyway, way to put a damper on my year*

More highs in 2011 than lows. I'm extremely happy about that & feel so blessed everyday to have the family and friends that I have. As if I didn't know what was important in life before all of these tests {I call the lows tests because I'm sure there is a purpose. I just don't know that purpose yet}, I now really understand what's important in life. I'm blessed to have the life I have. I have it pretty dang good. Here's to good news in 2012 for the hubs & I!!!
PS- Don't ever forget to tell those you care about just how much they mean to you....you never know where life will take you.
