My 2012 in Pictures



Narrowing down pictures to just a few to represent a whole year is a HUGE challenge.  I went through all of 2012's pictures, and made it to 42.  For those 42 pictures, you can look at the album I created on Facebook.

For a blog, though, That seems like a fairly cumbersome volume of pictures to post.  So this is my attempt to narrow down - even further - our 2012 in pictures.  The idea stems from a blog challenge.  Unlike "Wordless Wednesday" - this challenge encouraged using "captioning" (thank goodness!) and suggested picking one picture for every month.  I'm not sure I can narrow it down that far!
