Saying Goodbye to 2014

2014 has been a busy and great year. It has been a big year for us actually. We feel so blessed and thankful for all the events, challenges and life changes that happened during 2014. We are looking forward to 2015 though. We can't wait to see what it has in store for our little family!

Here is our 2014 rewind of events:

 

Matthew passed the National Boards. We celebrated by getting a babysitter, and going out to a fancy restaurant at the Golf Course in Pullman. 

We took one big road trip to visit all the job offers Matthew had. Our first stop was Malta, MT, next Buffalo, WY and last Powell, WY. We decided on the job in Powell. Not only were we able to get the services we needed for Ian, it was close to both our families, and the insurance was amazing for paying on the therapy Ian needs.

Ian had to go to the eye doctor. His therapist and us were concerned about his eye sight. He eyes were fine and he is far sighted, but not bad enough to need glasses yet.

Chloe turned one. We through  a big 1st birthday party for our sweet Chloe girl.

My brother Jake got called to the Virgina Chesapeake Bay Mission, and entered the MTC in August.

Ian turned 3. We celebrated with lots of family and friends. Ian's birthday was on Matthew's graduation day.

May 10, 2014, the day we had been waiting for forever, finally came. Matthew graduated from WSU with his Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine.

We moved from Pullman, WA to Lovell WY. We sure do miss Pullman and all our friends, but are so glad to have a job and a house with a yard.

Matthew started his first job as a Vet at Powell Veterinary Services with two other Vets. He is enjoying being a vet and living his dreams.

We celebrated our 6th anniversary. We were able to celebrate by leaving the kids with my parents for a few days and going to Denver. It was a relaxing and fun weekend. I sure love being married to this sweet guy.

Ian had his 1st day of preschool on September 8th. He goes to the Children's Resource Center. He also receives speech and occupational therapy while he is at preschool. He really enjoys school. Ian has also been receiving ABA therapy since July. We have Dani that comes to the house Mondays, Wednesday, Thursday and Fridays. Then on Tuesdays we go to Billings for ABA therapy, occupational therapy and speech.  We are loving how much progress Ian has made. We feel so blessed to have the services we have for him.

We love being back home where we can help with the cows. The kids really love riding horses when we trail cows.

Chloe and I were able to attend a Tumble and Tot class on Fridays for a month while Ian was in school. Chloe loved having her cousins Landon and Paige in the class too. It was such a blast.

We had a great Christmas. We enjoyed our first Christmas morning in our own place since we have had kids. It was great!

Uncle Jared married the sweetest girl Renee. We are so excited that she is part of the Asay family now.

We rang in the new year with lots of family and food. Just how it should be done. Goodbye 2014 and Hello 2015.
