dear twenty-twelve,
you were good to me. …let’s see why!
i started the year off in ITALIA with my mom. an unforgettable trip of a lifetime that i wouldn’t want to spend with anyone else.
here she is in Florence:
here i am in Rome:
We made it to Venice as well:
….and Siena and Sorrento. and ate and ate and ate. took a cooking class in Florence. fell in love with the land. and had, case in point, the greatest time! perfect start for 2012 if you ask me!
.
NEXT…march 2012. …and i stole the first hug from this certain Gossling boy who came home from his mission in Argentina…
…i went to the beach!…
.
that Gossling boy and i became pretty close and enjoyed spring together in GA…
i moved to UTAH in April and became roommates with this crazy fun blonde bombshell…
…and reunited with this blonde bombshell….
…i turned 25! and a certain Gossling boy flew out to surprise me!…
…Summer 2012, i flew home to GA and that Gossling boy and i road-tripped back out to UT together…
…long story short…that Gossling boy proposed, and we started planning a party…and our forever together…
…the DMOPC family grew…our family at work….
…the big party happened in September…(Elissa turned 26 on our big weekend!)…
…even my Grandparents came from Mexico!…
…married life began. it treated us right. then the husband and i road tripped to California for Thanksgiving to visit family…
…we had fun on the way home stopping in VEGAS with our friends, Lora & Dan Grady (who made the road trip with us! so fun!)…we pinballed and dinner dated!…
…2012 brought new friends…we are so blessed to have…
…in 2012…Gossling Farms was established (best idea ever, Michael & June!)…which allowed for a kick-A wedding reception and for this to happen….woohoo!…
…December brought family, friends, and fun as well with Christmas and New Year’s in Georgia….but that will get its own separate post. As well as a well-overdue post with more wedding pictures if I ever get around to it. 2013 in preview also to come…
so yes, 2012, you were good to me. thank you!
love, whit
p.s. – as it’s a new year…i decided to align my text to the left for Dave.






























You did have a killer year! 2013 I’m sure will have the same awesomeness in store!
