July - We traveled to Sacramento for Fourth of July, I went to Albuquerque again for my friends Bridal Shower and we heard our baby heart beat for the first time!
August - David started his Staff Academy school up in Camp Pendelton. It's the first time he has gone to a school in our 7 1/2 years of marriage and be close to home at the same time! It was a blessing and a curse all at once, I made it easy for David to be distracted from school, but so wonderful to still be close by!
September - We had a ultrasound and found out that baby Dunn is Baby Eleanor Mavis Dunn! We are having a girl! I traveled to Albuquerque again to be in my friends wedding. It was a fun 4 days visiting with her and helping her get ready for the big day! I was also able to see some other friends while in town and it was good to catch up with them as well!

October - David graduated his Staff Academy school! I was able to go to her first military graduation ever! We also made a very impromptu visit to Sacramento & Modesto to visit family. We were able to see my dad and oldest brother and grandpa, aunts and some cousins! We were also able to see David's family and cousins and uncle! Pretty good for only 2 nights! We also took a mini trip to Yuma, AZ with our friend to visit her husband who was away for work. We celebrated his birthday and just had a relaxing weekend.
At David's graduation - October 17, 2012
November - We spent Thanksgiving in Sacramento. Unfortunately, I had to work majority of the week, but it was so nice to be with family! We also celebrated our 8 year anniversary! How has it been 8 years already! We also had my brother Tim, his wife Lonita and two sons in town the week after Thanksgiving! It was so much fun and the boys are a ball of energy and kept everyone on our toes! We loved every minute!
December - We celebrated my birthday. My parents came to town for Christmas . We were able to go whale watching, the Midway, the San Diego Temple lights, catch up & bake away! We had a wonderful Christmas spent with family and our military family.
It has been an eventful year and we have a feeling it will be anything but slowing down next year! We are looking forward to Eleanor being born and all the adventures we will have with that!
