Farewell 2016. Hello 2017.

I think it's safe to say that 2016 was one of the best years ever!  Although it was one of the busiest years full of travel, some big changes and more fun than we knew was possible, 2016 came and went and we are so grateful for all of the wonderful memories we had! 
Check out a few Highlights from our year! 
The kids and I kicked off 2016 traveling to Texas and Arizona to visit family and to present the award for the Hunter Goold Memorial Scholarship.

In February our sweet Hayden girl turned 2 and it was FROZEN fun! 

Frozen Themed Party Here. 
Early March Kevin and I went to Hawaii to celebrate our 5th Wedding Anniversary!  (I still can't believe I never blogged about it :( ... but I will)

In the Spring we started finishing the basement in our Lehi house, had family visit and were knee deep in sports!

In June we announced we SOLD our home in Lehi and were moving to Provo!

In July we made our second big announcement of the year... Baby #3 was on their way!

In August we welcomed you all into our New Home!

In September we traveled to South Dakota with family!

In October we were BACK at Disneyland! 

In December....  Henry Eric Ford joined our family. 

Stay tuned for Henry's birth story soon.
As you can see, 2016 was INCREDIBLE.  There was so much that didn't make the blog so prepare for a few catch up posts this year because they were just too good not to share! 
We can't wait to see what 2017 will bring us and hope you'll stick around for this years adventures!  

New Year. New Focus.

Happy New Year.  If you're reading our blog for the first time, then Welcome!  If you've come back to follow along our adventures for another year with us, Thank You!  We have been truly blessed over the last 5 years to have had so many awesome followers, and we are so grateful for the opportunities this blog has given our family.
I thought I'd start the new year with a re-introduction to the people behind FordOlogy.

We're just a little family of four living out our dreams in Utah County, and we're so excited that you've come to join us on our journey.
This year we are going to gear our lifestyle blog more towards our readers!  We want this to be a place you can come for inspiration!  You'll still see the things you love best, like our travel posts and DIY kid friendly activities, but they'll now be written to help you with tips, tricks and how to's so for your family!  We hope to bring you more collaborations for products and places we know you'll love. We'll be introducing a few weekly and bi-weekly features.   We'll also be featuring Vlogs, sharing recipes, kid crafts and parties, holiday celebrations and throwing in some budget friendly fashion finds for the whole family.
