We brought in 2019 in Bryant family tradition: game night till midnight! Lanie and I played the original Super Mario Brothers 3 on the Classic NES. Lanie stayed up until midnight without a problem. We noticed there was a huge difference between our new neighborhood and old one. Usually we have to stay inside and beware of the gunshots. Thank goodness our new neighborhood was NOTHING like that. It was quiet and peaceful except for a few fireworks in the distance that quickly stopped.
2018 seemed to blur by faster than we realised. What did 2018 bring for us?
A big event was Lanie turning 10 years old!
We also celebrated Justin's 39th birthday.

Easter 2018 Lanie got to wear makeup to try and hide a black eye she got from getting smacked with an Easter bucket during a egg hunt earlier in the week.
June was BIG month. I got diagnosed with Intersitial Cystitis (painful bladder syndrome). I was put on some meds for it that made it worse so I stopped them shortly after starting them.
We also moved across town. We needed the move. It was also very hard at the same time.
Lanie got to go to church camp for the first time. She had a blast. She also got to ring the bell after dedicating her life to God. We are so proud of her. The sunday after camp she was baptized. That day she got to take part in her first Lord's Supper.
This was the first year we got to spend 4th of July with my Aunt and Uncle. Sadly it was because my cousin had been in the hospital up here and they had to drive up here to be with him. We also had extended family the Webbs and Siaz's with there.
For my birthday on July 21st we went up to the mountains for some light hiking then swimming.
In August Lanie started a new school. She was nervous at first but is now loving it and has lots of friends.
In September I started having allergic reactions for no known reason. Hives, swelling, and just anaphalaxis. We still haven't figured out what's going on. We're currently doing more testing.
In October I got a Cricut and started new crafts.
Halloween brought our annual Halloween Party. Lanie dressed as a fortune teller for the party and a vampire on Halloween.
On October 25th Lanie and I were in a car accident. We got hit by an uninsured motorist. It totaled out my car and left me with a broken rib. I was out of work for a month while on a weight limit from my pcp. I'm still having pain every now and then, but back to work as usually.
In November Lanie got to go to the state capital and a train museum for a school field trip.
December 1st I was wrapping gifts and Ozzy decided to lay on the wrapping paper. In return I thought I'd try wrapping him like I saw someone do in a YouTube video. Mind you I figured he'd instantly run away. I was wrong. (Don't worry he wasn't harmed and he loved it. He even took a nap before deciding to get out)
Lanie had a speaking part and a singing solo in the church Christmas play.
For Christmas Santa brought Lanie a painting easel. We had a nice calm day at home.
The only goals I have set for 2019 is to finally find answers to my migraines, allergic reactions and fibro pain. 2018 was really hard for me medically and I'm holding hope that 2019 will give us answers, treatment and relief.
