I could have filled this with hundreds of pictures of the past year! Time goes by so quickly. I am looking forward to the New Year - 2013.
I heard a great quote last night, "Our only purpose is to love." It is so true, all the rest really doesn't matter. So, my new year's resolution is to love more and not worry about the rest so much. Here is to wishing everyone a Happy New Year!
