A year in photos. One of my favorite end of year blog posts. This is my 3rd year participating in Ashley Sisk’s year end photo round up (my past 2 years: 2010 and 2011). I always love wandering through past photos, and this is always like a scavenger hunt. I hope you all enjoy, and if you’d like… join Ashley!
1. Me! – What are you most proud of accomplishing in 2012? Goodness, just making it through the holidays was an accomplishment. I have never been so busy in my life! A ton of orders, blogging, life, and selling at a local craft show.
2. I Love You – picture of your husband, boyfriend, children, pets, etc.
3. Still Laughing… – I’m still laughing at these two girls. Jess and Stephanie. We stayed up past 3 am playing Mad Libs. Yup. It was hilarious… because we used dirty words. Yeah, we’re a bunch of 5-year-olds.
4. Winter Wonderland – This photo is as wintery as things get. We had one day of snow, but I didn’t take any photos. Santa screams winter time, to me.
5. Birthday – My kiddo’s 3rd birthday.
6. Friends
7. I Was Inspired… – I was so inspired by my trip to Alt Summit last January. It was an amazing learning experience, and I met so many talented and amazing people. I can’t wait to go again, and I’ll be speaking this time. Whew!
8. Spring Fever – Warm day at Jamison Square!
9. Travel or Vacation – a trip to the Oregon Coast.
10. Summer Days – a trip to NY in August. Holy hot!
11. A Day In My Life – Just another day.
12. All Smiles – 4 generations.
13. Autumn Harvest – Welcome Pumpkin.
14. Home
15. Celebrate! – A pie to celebrate a birthday.
16. Let’s Do It Again… My Napa trip was AHmazing!
17. I Miss You – My sister. She lives in New Zealand.
18. Beautiful
19. Dress Up – Halloween.
20. Close Up
21. Holidays
22. My Favorite – This is my favorite photo from 2012.
23. Don’t Ever Change
24. Just Because…So There! – My cute little Chihuahua man, Angus.
25. Hopes and Dreams – I hope for the most beautiful year, with more happiness than sadness. Lots of growing and journeys with friends. AND, an exciting year for my beautiful daughter…. who’s starting preschool in a couple days! <3

Beautiful! Loved the animated photos! Happy 2013!
Stunning shots!
Maybe this has already been covered here (and maybe I already have a sorta-kinda idea of how) but…..how did you make the animated photos in this post? They are awesome! 🙂
I made a little tutorial a while ago. I hope this helps! https://thepapermama.com/2012/05/wordlessish-wedne…
All such beautiful photos of your life!! Wow! Pre school already, before you know it, she'll be in college (just kidding..sort of ). 🙂 Happy New Year!!
Ahhh! No, not yet. 🙂
No..I know..just feels like it sometimes for me!! I still remember first days of preschool for my girls and now one is in college and one's in middle school.
I feel like I've been watching them grow up, too. 😉 Just since 2010.
I loved this post – those GIF-animations are so great! You are so talented and I totally love your vintage style!!! <3
Thank you, happy New Year!
Oh silly me….a *unicorn* hat!! :>
Hee! Happy New Year to you, too!
Love the bunny hat with cat eye glasses and your take on that li'l elf has me laughing out loud! :> Have a happy New Year!
Fun photos! So cute
Thank you!
Love your photos…especially the still of you standing in NYC, but with the hustle and bustle of others moving around you! (BTW, how did you do that?). Cheers to a great 2013!
Thank you! I have a little tutorial here: https://thepapermama.com/2012/05/wordlessish-wedne…
Great photos! You have a beautiful family. And Lincoln City! I live just south of there. Yay Oregon Coast! 😉
I love the Oregon Coast! So beautiful.
