Happy new year! Here is a recap of our 2013
In January Maggie reached the 6 month mark. She was still willing to be a prop for Will’s toys at that point.

In February we vacationed in Cozumel. Maggie really enjoyed the local cuisine.

Things were a little cooler in St. Louis in March… no swim suits required here.

In April Amelia completed the St. Louis Read, Right, and Run Marathon, her first organized run (1 mile), with a finale that included thousands of students from around St. Louis.

In June Amelia, Vera, and Will went to Iowa for Gramma Camp, or Grandparent Camp like Will likes to call it. Maggie and I took a short road trip to hang out with Helen and Faye for some hot weather fun.

Summer wouldn’t have been complete without a trip to Green Lake, WI in August with lots of Spencer extended family.
In September we were back in the swing of school, soccer, and juggling activities with three kiddos.

October is Will’s favorite month of the year because he can celebrate his birthday, and it’s harvest season. He turned 5 on the 14th and let me just say, October lived up to his expectations yet again!

We took advantage of another beautiful St. Louis fall that took us through November. Bikes are really the best way to travel as a gang at this age.

December was full of holiday adventures, including a trip for Amelia and me to Washington for Papa Mike’s 60th birthday, a post Christmas trip to Iowa City, and New Year’s with the Pantazis crew.
