A Look Back At 2012

As a new year is upon us once again its always
fun to take a look back. 

I am playing along with Ashley's 
Memories, dreams and reflections. 
Just like the scavenger hunt Ashley gives us
25 word prompts to help us take a look back
at a year gone by..




ME
At the beginning of the year the hubby and I took a little trip 
to one of my favorite cities San Francisco.




I LOVE YOU
The love of my life.




STILL LAUGHING
Trying to get a serious photo here PLEASE!!




WINTER WONDERLAND
No snow or rain here in Vegas but this is what
happens to my bouganvilla in the winter. 
Also I just really love this photo. 




BIRTHDAY
We had the best Birthday ever!




FRIENDS
Just a couple of my girlfriends 
I try to meet up with them once a week!




SPRING FEVER
Nothing says spring like a bright beautiful flower!




TRAVEL OR VACATION
Had lots of fun on this trip to Cannon Beach, OR.




I WAS INSPIRED
My girlfriend Becca made big changes this year by moving to Seattle.
She is Loving Life..  I am hoping I feel the same when I make big changes this year.




SUMMER DAYS
You have to do this hike in the summer because the
water is way too cold in the winter. 
Narrows in Zion National Park.




A DAY IN MY LIFE
Whether I am at home or camping or on vacation
I need my COFFEE.




ALL SMILES
This photo always makes me smile!




AUTUMN HARVEST
This photo was in Central Park, NYC.
What a great trip!




FAMILY OR HOME
Here they are my sweet family!
Love you guys..




CELEBRATE
My Grandsons 1st Birthday.




LETS DO IT AGAIN
Definitely want to go back some day!




I MISS YOU
Can't wait till May when I can see them again. 




BEAUTIFUL




DRESS UP
Too Cute..




MACRO
Love this shot!!




HOLIDAYS
I really should have taken more photos
of family while they were here. 




MY FAVORITE
Taken from the Ship.
Another reminder of a wonderful trip.




DON'T EVER CHANGE
Still madly in love with this guy.
I hope that never changes. 




JUST BECAUSE... SO THERE...
Another shot I love..




HOPES AND DREAMS

This New year will have lots of changes for us.
We will be renting out our house and hitting the road. 
Full time RV'ers..  So excited, I can't wait. 





I just wanted to say
Thank you so much for all the support and
and encouragement that all of you have given me. 
And I do hope you have a Happy and Healthy
and safe New Year ahead..

See you next year!!

Hugs~
