What are the highlights of your 2007?
In March to April, Matthew and I went to the Philippines for a vacation. I had a blast seeing my family again since it has been years since I last went to my hometown. And they really enjoyed meeting Matthew for the first time. He was 7-months old then. Also, my experiences at the airports and the international flights with a 7-month old baby was really eventful and unforgettable!
And of course, Matthew turned 1-year old in August.

Hi Summer, it looks like an eventful 2007 for you! – charlotte
We had a great summer. We didnt plan much to do, so we were able to relax, and do things when we wanted. We did take a few trips, one being to the beach, which was unexpected and my favorite place to go.
-
hi carey, i think trips to the beach are fun! it’s been awhile since i have been to the beach … -charlotte
May I first just say, Matthew is ADORABLE! But you probably already knew that. *grin*
The highlight of this year for me was our camping vacation to the Rockies. We went at the end of July and even though that’s traditionally the hottest part of the summer, it was cool and PERFECT in the mountains (no insects!!!) I can’t wait to go back.
-
hi karen, i’ve never been to camping but its sounds like fun. however, the thought of the cold or insects
if it isn’t coldis a little bit discouraging. i know i have to try camping though. perhaps soon. – charlotteI wish going home to the Philippines is one of my highlights,too.

After living in Florida for 2 years, my husband and I moved back to Southern California. We left Florida on February 8th and spent an incredible 2 1/2 months traveling across the U.S. We arrived home in California in the middle of April and now get to see our grandbabies almost every day.

hi cathi, it must have been a really important and stressful move! it’s really nice that your loved ones are near. i’ve been living too far away from my hometown, where most of my loved ones are. and being too far can be depressing sometimes. -charlotte

My daughter also turned one in Feb., and I will never forget our trip to San Diego.
Happy New Years!

One of the highlights of 2007 was my son’s entry to Nursery. It’s nice to see him interacting with children and doing well in school activities. He improved a lot since he started going to school.
