2011 Status Recap

Below are all my Facebook status updates for 2011. Feel free not to read them. It's always interesting to look back on the year. It's amazing how little I updated things some months. And I neglected to post some things (I forgot to announce Addisyn's birth!)but I guess that's okay. If you compare this list to last years, it's really short.

Happy New Year!
