2008 Year in Review (January through June)

So I have seen a few people do a "Year in Review" on their blogs and thought it was a GREAT IDEA...until I started it and realized I couldn't just pick one picture for each month:-) So here is the first half of the Harp's Adventure's of 2008!

JANUARY

The last two months of 2007 were so BUSY that we didn't do much of anything but recooperate from it all. We had Kalani come for 8 days, our 3rd Anniversary, My 31st Brithday and of course the Holidays...Lee did a great job on the house and we had an AWESOME Christmas!
Mom and Dad came with us to the 8th Ward Christmas party which was FUN!

FEBRUARY

February was an AMAZING month...we started it off by going to the Chris Brown concert. We were surrounded by Tweens and felt pretty OLD but it was fun and we had a great time.

Then two weeks later we went to THE POLICE (Lee's Christmas present) concert and it was AWESOME. I had so much fun and there were so many old people htere that I felt WAY YOUNG. I was not a fan before the concert but I am SO a fan now!
I had ot work on Valentine's Day but when I got home at 9:30pm I was greeted with this gorgeous site. I am so blessed to have such a romantic husband!

MARCH

Savannah got her Easter pictures done early and they are ADORABLE. She is growing so quickly and we were getting excited for her upcoming visit (see May/June).
Lee also started his new hobbie...AIRSOFT...and made a bunch of new friends while getting to shoot people. What more could a guy ask for? LOL
I also got called to be the Beehive Advisor for the ward. I was overwhelmed and a little scared but I was SO lucky to have a great bunch of girls to teach.


APRIL

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!!!
I love this picture of us...its one of the few that we look like each other (usually I look like Dad).
Lee and I took Mom and Dad out to Chai's Island Bistro and had one of the best nights EVER with them. We had a great time and truly celebrated mom's special day!

We also spent a lot of time with our KAYLA...she really is my baby:-)

Hanging out in the yard with my GORGEOUS Husband and my little puppy...a perfect day!

MAY

Ivana had her second child in May and he is a DOLL. Ivana and I live only few minutes away from each other but we hardly see one another! But I was able to spend some tiem with her and Isaiah right after he was born.
I organizeed a Missionary Month with my Beehive girls (and the YW). We made dinner for the Sister Missionaries then had a fireside where we learned how to do missionary work and we concluded with a Mututal activity that put the girls into companionships and they had workshops and fun activities to learn about serving the Lord. It was so much fun and totally made me miss being a SISTER MISSIONARY:-)

The HIGHLIGHT of May was when Lee flew out to pick Savannah up for her very first visit to HAWAII. Here she is with her very first LEI.
It was a dream come true to finally have her here and we crammed those three weeks with every imaginable thing we would do with her if she lived here.

Lee was in heaven and so was I...we can't wait for her next visit this summer! We get a whole 6 weeks this year and I can't WAIT:-)

JUNE

Savannah's first time at the beach!
Savannah's 5th Birthday Princess Party.
We took Savannah home to Utah and got to be there for Jessica's Baptism!

This was the best summer EVER...to have my nieces and nephews together and have a family reunion was an amazing experience and I hope we can do it again soon!
My sweet angels...Iwish I could have all of them live with me!!!
Some of our best memories were running amuck at Jonny's house. Water ballon fights, wrestling, BETO'S and lots of LAUGHING.
Uncle Lee's FAMOUS relay races are another memory that none of us will forget!



Stay tuned for the SECOND half of my year in Review...
