Top 12 of 2012

It might be an overdone topic (and potentially an odd topic for someone who almost never posts…maybe I will get better in 2013, since I have a grand plan to stay away from Facebook and I think that alone will give me a couple of extra hours in the day), but here I am with my 12 favorite photos from 2012, listed by month. 

January – my sweet kitties.  I actually took this on 1 January 2012.  Pretty neat.

February – we went home in February for a very busy four day trip.  I am so glad I got this picture with my Granddaddy!

March – my nephew, Tyler, came to visit and we explored many places, some new, some old.  This was taken at the National Aquarium in Baltimore.

April – ROMA.  I cannot believe I haven’t done a post (or a series of posts!) about our trip.  I did a lot of journaling while we were there, so I have it documented, just not online.

May – in May I was fortunate enough to go to Texas for work (a job that really had me depressed…something I had never known, but I just could not get happy there) and while there I took a side trip to Austin to see Rachie!

June – there may have been more significant events in June, but at least four days in June were devoted to painting this buffet (and lining the drawers with lovely maps) so I thought it fitting to include this.

July – Joshua and I turned 29 and I like this picture of us.  We are doing 30 right and living it up in DC.

August – this was our first month in the tiny apartment!  We explored our not-so-local (DuPont Circle) farmer’s market and found a new love!

September – Mama + Paul came to visit and we captured this photo of the Old Post Office right outside of Del Frisco’s.

October – the last day of October found me at the Supreme Court listening to Oral Arguments and loving the building.

November – we saw the super talented Carrie Underwood at First Mariner Arena in Baltimore.  Joshua took the amazing photographs!

December – I have yet to edit the photos from our trip home, so this one will have to work.  I experienced a DC tradition by going to the Capitol Building to see the lighting of the Capitol Christmas Tree.

Overall, I am glad that I got out and did something every month (many of my excursions are not listed here) and took some beautiful photographs while I was at it.  Looking ahead at 2012, we will go to the Presidential Inauguration, celebrate our 30th, and attend what I know will be a beautiful wedding.  I am so looking forward to all of that!
