Favorite photos of the year....

This week over at Written Inc. , the theme is favorite photos of the year. This is one of my favorite themes! I enjoy sifting through all the photos I've taken and remembering certain events, or places in the pictures that I may have forgotten. And I love looking at everyone else's. Because favorite pictures often have stories to tell. Here are a few of mine throughout the year:

If I absolutely had to chose only one picture, this would be it. But it doesn't have to do with just the picture itself, it was the meaning behind the picture. This particular day was spent exploring with the family and we found this during our adventures.

This picture because of the memories it holds. Memories of loved ones past, of joyous times spent there together and the hope that more memories will one day be made there.

The next three photos I chose because I tried really hard to slow down and appreciate the little things around me this year. There is so much beauty hidden in our everyday lives. These were a few I came up with.

 The last two were my favorite fun ones. Just fun pictures of my siblings (and it helps that their both gymnasts!)

Praying that everyone has a happy and blessed New Year!!!
