2012 is almost over and it has been an awesome year!
It´s been about achieving goals and dreams coming true, hard work and lots of fun.
This morning I saw a beautiful post "A year in pictures" at one of my favorite blogs http://rowdykittens.com/2012/12/yearinphotos/.
I was inspired to do my own year in pictures. Here it is!
In January we moved to the ranch. It was a rainy and cold month. Even though we were very eager to do some ranching we spent a lot of time in front of the fireplace reading books about ranching and planning our work.
We had rain in February as well but we did a lot of riding anyway. Above is Joel and Trigger.
March had almost three weeks of snow! On the picture is Neikka and Bo playing in the snow.
April - Two friends, Marlin and Diamond enjoys the sun together.
Stella came to us in May. She came having serious aggression issues, including biting kids. She is now a loved member of our family.
In June we bought a start kit for Oyster Mushrooms at Whole Foods. After that we expanded our mushroom farm to producing all the mushrooms we can eat.
Our daughter Hayley Cecilia Northcutt is born on July25.
She´s only a few minutes old on the picture.
In August we did a lot of hiking. It was awesome to be able to be outside again.
I bought my Icelandic Horse Faxi in June but he came to the ranch September 1st.
October was a beautiful month with lots of wonderful rides.
In November a childhood dream of mine, having alpacas, came true.
On the picture Eenie, Meniee, Miniie and Moe.
We spent December in Napa. Above is Joel playing with one of his Christmas gifts.
I hope you had a good year 2012 and I wish you an awesome 2013. Happy New Year!
