Tolman Top 40 Hits of Twenty-Sixteen

You know the "Billboard Top 40 Hits"? Or the "Rick Dees Weekly Top 40"?

Well, this is a similar list--except that instead of a list of top songs, it's a list of our top moments from the previous year. It's been a yearly tradition of ours since 2009! I love to reflect on the positive happenings in our lives from the recent year; it's a good reminder for us to remember what we've accomplished, and what we've experienced together as a family, too! Instead of numbering them this year, though, I separated them into groups, based on what each person decided on and what we discussed as a group!
