Wightman 2012 in Review


January - Mark's mom joined her eternal companion, passing away 1 year (almost to the day) after Jack.
February - Paige got an iPhone, which started a chain reaction we couldn't resist.

  And Mom turned 80
 So (almost) the whole clan got together to celebrate! 
We also took our yearly trip to Lava Hot Springs!

March - Paige (finally) decided she would go on a mission. Also City Creek opened ... a BIG highlight.
 


April – Paige got called to serve in the Italy Rome Mission and the great mission shopping began!

 Also we stuccoed our house!

May – We were in the celestial room all together … AND we went to Disneyland.

 We also fit in a little trip to our favorite place - St. George!

June – Our sweet Paige left our home but not our hearts (as you can plainly see by her repeated appearance on this list!) 
With the help of wonderful neighbors and friends
we cut down our large/old pine tree.

July – We discovered the “glitter pits” outside of St. George.
 And took a drive out to the Spiral Jetty.

August – Wicked came to Salt Lake!! And we LOVED it
Plus - Courtney turned 25!

September – For the first time in 11 years no one in the Wightman household started school.

 So when Paige's friends came back to school
we had them over!
We also went to the State Fair!

October – Courtney was a Frenchman and Rosemary Woodhouse at various Halloween parties.


November – We spent a lovely Thanksgiving weekend in St. George with Mom

 And endured maybe the coldest BYU game in history - 
well at least the snowiest!

December – Our spirits were lifted when Mom had a health scare – that turned out fine! And again when BYU won their bowl game after a tough season.
We made Klejner.
Purchased and decorated our tree.
Had a lovely Christmas Eve!
But best of all
we got to Skype with 
Sorella Wightman!!! 
 It has been an excellent year over her at the Wightman home!
I am certain 2013 is going to be a fabulous year!
