GOODBYE 2012-------HELLO 2013






   This year we celebrated New Years Eve Lazy style..Pajamas, Movies, Junk Food, and Ice Cream (Ice cream is not a junk food(JUST SAYIN ;). What a FUNtastic year 2012 has been, cannot wait to see what 2013 has in store for us!


The Kautz Year in Review:



JANUARY

This month we got to see our "little peanut" aka the Gummy Bear for the first time. We were so excited :)
The moment we saw this picture we were in love <3






FEBRUARY
Went on our HONEYMOON in MEXICO!



MARCH

We found out that our LITTLE PEANUT was a GIRL!



APRIL
Moved into our "first house"- We are only renting but still. Ava had her own nursery we had a nice backyard, a guest room, nice entertaining living room, and of course room for our Fish tank.



MAY
We became an Aunt and Uncle to the best little Nephew anyone could ask for. Aside from being a mother, being an Aunt is one of the most enjoyable parts of my life. I love him!

JUNE
Got Avas Nursery all put together! Began Summer Vacation and both Completed our first years of teaching. I taught 1st Grade and Justin taught PE.

 




JULY
Celebrated my 25 birthday ( YES, 25...a Quarter of a century)
I was feeling SUPER pregnant so most of the time was spent hanging out at Nana and Grandpas house laying in the pool!




AUGUST
BEST MONTH OF OUR LIFE!
Little Ava Paige was born
*Justin would also like to add that we went to the FELIX PERFECT GAME ( The day before being induced)

 
 
 




SEPTEMBER
Celebrated our ONE YEAR wedding anniversary. This was also the first time we ever left Ava for a few hours. What made it extra special was Ava had ALL of her grandparents babysitting her :)




OCTOBER
First Halloween- Celebrated it at Uncle Alex and Auntie Melissas house. Cooper and Ava had a great first Halloween. Cooper was Winnie the Pooh and Ava was a Pink Panther




NOVEMBER
First Thanksgiving.
We also hosted First Annual FRIENDSGIVING at our house. All 18 people enjoyed a nice Turkey (our first time cooking turkey, and it was tasty)




DECEMBER
Another MONTH to remember. Ava's first Christmas. This was a BUSY BUSY month. We were surrounded by loved ones.
Ava also went on her first Airplane ride and visited her grandparents in Ohio. This was also the first time she met most of her extended OHIO family.



Here we are about to start a new year. 2013 is going to be a very NEW BEGINNING for our family. Many of you do not know, but soon will (either reading this, or the next time you see Justin and I) but Justin has gotten a job offer. Before I say where I am going to begin by saying HOW PROUD of him I am. He has worked LONG and HARD to get a career in sports. This job is going to show everyone his dedication, and determination to succeed in this career field. Justin will be Intramural Coordinator at the University of Tennessee. (<----YES, WE ARE MOVING TO TENNESSEE) Scary I know, but EXCITING. This job is going to open so many doors for our family. We still have a lot to figure our and a lot to coordinate but as of now Justin will be moving the first week of FEBRUARY and Ava and I will be staying behind while Justin settles into his new position. This is going to be a VERY HARD transition for our little family of three but we know with our extended family and friends love and support that anything is possible and no matter how far away we live the bonds with family and friends will remain strong. We will keep everyone posted :)


                                         HAPPY NEW YEAR! LOVE THE KAUTZS
