Today I'm joining Jessica from
Four Plus an Angel in a look back at 2011. The challenge was this:
Just create a post with 12 words or 12 pictures… a little year in review. Pick a word for each month of 2011 or a picture for each, or a 12 word sentence that sums up the year or a 12 picture collage, as long as it’s easy for you to put together and easy for others to read.
I chose photos - some are my favorites because I think they're great photos. Others are my favorites because of the memories - the people and places. Here is my 2011!
 |
This is one of my favorite photos, ever. I had just gotten my Canon Rebel for Christmas, and this was the first photo that came out of my camera that absolutely wowed me. |
 |
I don't take many self portraits. I love this one. |
 |
My family. |
 |
Happy. |
 |
For Sam's 5th birthday, I took him to the Science Center to the Star Wars exhibit - no Danny, just a special day for him. We had so much fun! |
 |
The boys and I spent 18 days in New Jersey with my sister, Lianna. She is awesome. They had a lot of fun. See? |
 |
Love. |
 |
My cousin Emmy visited from Philadelphia and I love this shot of her and my sister - two of my favorite people. |
 |
He is just so happy. |
 |
Well, not the best shot of Sam's face (haha) but you can see both their costumes, and they're holding hands! |
 |
The boys on Thanksgiving. |

This one is awesome because it's just how life is - the kids are distracted or wanting to go, go, go, and I'm trying to get a nice little photo. I love the look on my Mom's face, amused at both me and my 3rd attempt at the photo and at the kids. |
