Sitting here thinking about the past year and looking forward into 2014, I find myself pondering: "What did I accomplish in 2013?" I didn't make a Steelhead trip, I didn't tie as many flies as planned and I didn't fish as much as I wanted. I did however get to watch my girls grow and grow closer as a family. Actually, now that I really think about it, they both grew quite a bit. We made two trips to Disney, a trip to Anaheim and a trip to Orlando. While in Orlando, my youngest (1 yo at the time) learned a new word..... Mickey! Now it's her go to word. Any time we're at home and just sitting around not doing anything it's always Mickey, Mickey, Mickey. My oldest (3 yo) is quite a little helper. She loves to help dad make breakfast, do the laundry, dust the house and feed the animals. They both are growing up so fast and I don't like it. Plus we are expecting our 3 child in late April and its going to be a little boy!

Also last year we found and adopted a Bernese Mountain Dog. She is an amazing dog and I look forward to have the opportunity to take her out fishing with me. Over all 2013 turned out to be quite a fun year. I wound up accomplishing quite a bit! But the best thing about the past year is I grew closer to my sweetheart of 6 years! Without her I wouldn't be where I am today.
I know I promised some tutorials in 2013 but I got swamped with getting things started for The Wyo Angler. Things like updating the blog, creating a Twitter account, creating a Youtube channel and creating a Vimeo account. In 2014 I'll be putting together some tying tutorials and "tips and tricks" for around the vise and on the water. I am looking forward to a great 2014 and hope that you have a Happy New Year!!
