2011 Review

For a total of 14, here's the recap of countries we visited in 2011 (an * indicates a country we visited for the first time this year; for Gavin, all of them were first-times):
Of the above, some of the highlights include our March trip to Paris for Jacob to run the half-marathon. It was a great trip, and Gavin's first trip anywhere. We also really loved our trip to Estonia, Finland and Russia. Tallinn, Estonia remains one of our all-time favorite destinations.

We also had a wonderful visit to the USA visiting family in August. Gavin got to meet all of his cousins and aunts and uncles.

Another huge highlight was visits from family. Both sets of parents visited in January/February, which was wonderful.

Our brother-in-law Adam visited in October. And, of course, we just finished a great visit with Jacob's brother Jared and his wife Ashley earlier this month. We had such an amazing road trip with them, and we overall just loved spending time with them. (Also, they should be on magazine covers. Just sayin'.)
We both agree that the #1 highlight of 2011, no contest, has been getting to know this guy...

I love Gavin (cute pics of him). And what an awesome accomplishment to see all of those places. Hopefully one day I'll be able to say the same.
