We explored the Chattahoochee.
Killer and I went for a run in the rain. She was not happy.
Killer was uber cute exploring a field of daffodils right outside our apartment.
In March, Atlanta had the highest pollen count in history. As soon as we stepped outside we were covered in it. We learned that we fortunately did not have seasonal allergies.
Thanks to all the pollen, Brad was able to take lots of pretty pictures of flowers around our apartment complex.
Killer enjoyed all the lovely flora also.
Killer swam.

We spent our last night of the year shelling pecans. A tradition in Brad's family. He quickly schooled my family on how it's done. Unfortunately I could only shell about 20 until my skin started itching like crazy, but it was fun while it lasted.
We hope your year was as great as ours! We are excited to see what 2013 has in store for us!
