2014 has certainly been one of the best years of our lives!
In March, we welcomed our long awaited and much loved addition to complete our family of 4. Our gorgeous little boy Henry is now 9 months old, and is a most vivacious, active and gorgeous little man. He is crawling at speed, and has almost mastered the art of cruising furniture. Look out, world, Henry will be walking in no time at all!
Sean has enjoyed his last year of day care, and we are sure he will miss his beautiful educator immensely. But, wise beyond his years, when Sean was asked if he will miss his beloved "Sima", he said "No, not really, you only live next door to me, hello?! So I'll still see you all the time!" Out of the mouths of babes. Sean will start preschool in the new year, and we are bracing ourselves for the barrage of new information and ideas Sean will no doubt learn and sprout.
We have had the immense pleasure of watching the formation of a beautiful bond between Sean and Henry. They adore each other and we hope they will continue to grow closer.
2014 has been a year of travel for The Hills. Adelaide/Barossa Valley and Hong Kong were just 2 of our destinations this year, where we had the special privilege of attending 2 very special weddings. The Barossa Valley provided a stunning backdrop for the beautiful union of our beautiful friends Craig and Heather, and Hong Kong was THE place to be for some eagerly awaited celebrations as Gloria's cousins Carolyn and Eugene became husband and wife. We will forever cherish the amazing love we felt during these special celebrations.
We enjoyed a small family reunion during Carolyn and Eugene's wedding celebrations, with family members from all corners of the world joining in to bask in their love. It was terrific to see so many uncles, aunties and cousins all together in the same place, and it was made all the more special to finally meet some of the cousins for the very first time!
We are now counting down the days to our next trip, destination New Zealand, to spend Christmas with Jonathan's family. This will be our first Christmas in New Zealand, and we are hoping to make this vacation a much more regular thing going forward.
We hope 2015 holds a year of special surprises and highlights for you, and you are surrounded by your loved ones during this festive season.
