Happy New Year everyone! Hard to believe it is the beginning of a new year!
Last year was a tough in many ways so I am glad to see it go and am looking forward to a better 2012 :) I have the trials of 2011 to thank as I they made me grow in character, grow as a person, and caused me to reach new levels of patience and faith in a sovereign God.
Amidst the trials I was able to enjoy some special moments like my daughter's graduation from grade 7 and her earning the Citizenship Award, a great week of camping with friends, a fabulous two week vacation in Alberta visiting family and friends, and some wonderful quality and quantity family time (one of the things I hold nearest and dearest).
In addition, I wish to thank all of you for your support and comments throughout 2011. Your friendship and comments were all greatly appreciated and were often the ray of sunshine I needed in my day. I look forward to a wonderful 2012 with you :)
In closing, I thought I'd take a walk down my card making memory lane as many others have also done. Here are each month's favorites for 2011 (along with a few doubles as I just couldn't decide LOL).
