Looking Back on My 2012

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Now that 2012 is officially gone, I wanted to take the time to look back on what a great year it was. I decided to go back through my archives for the entire year and pick out my favorite blog posts. I really changed as a person a lot this year and so did my blog. I can not thank everyone enough for following my little blog and leaving me sweet comments all the time! It motivates me to keep going. Thank you.

I probably picked out way too many links to share, but I hope you enjoy reading some of my old blog posts!
You may want to get a cup of coffee or tea and stay awhile...
