The Wonderful World of the Wessel's: January 2011

Happy New Year! Because I am such a slacker when it comes to blogging, I thought I'd give the 2010 year in review!

January 2010
-Quiet, snowy month
-Sister Angie turned 28 years old

February 2010

-We got 14 inches of snow on Valentine's Day

-After all of the snow we bought a Yamaha Grizzly four wheeler with plow (a little late because it never snowed again that season!)

-At the end of February we had Angie's wedding shower and I was almost not able to attend because I had the worst stomach flu I've ever had

March 2010

-Pa'Paw Rick turns 60 years old this month!!

-Uncle Steve's also celebrated his birthday this month!

April 2010

**These pictures are not in order because I HATE BLOGGER. I can't get them to move around. I have two resolutions this year. 1) Take the SLR Camera class at Great Oaks in the spring and 2) find a new blog platform!!
