I don't think I'm the only one thinking things like, "where in the world did the past year go?" or "is it seriously almost 2013?" Right? Glad we got that out of the way.
2012 went by incredibly fast. I feel like I should be still grilling out and drinking a Corona light on our back deck.
Anyway, I thought it would be fun to not only look back at what I accomplished this year, but look at some of my favorite posts I wrote for every month. If you're new around here {even if you aren't}, maybe these will help you get to know me a little better, as some of them are not just recipes/projects but personal.

Dear 2012,
It's clear I was way more busy in the summer than the other months.
And in the fall/winter? I baked up a storm.
I also realized how much better I look with a tan, so winter, could you please hurry up?
Girlfriend needs some color and stat!

You were good to me. Very good.
It was a truly wonderful, rewarding year!

Cheers to accomplishing this much + more in 2013 and thank you for another 5 day weekend this weekend. I've become quite good at mastering the art of relaxation.
Love,
Me.
PS: Starting the new year off right by only having to work one day next week...
Cha-CHING!

All of these made my heart happy - I liked reliving the year with you. However, all of these made me hungry. So, thanks for that : )

Love this! I'm working on one as well... it's so much fun looking back over the last year! Crazy how quickly it's flown by! Happy New Year to y'all!
ReplyDeleteI just started following your blog so this post is perfect for me! I am dying over that wood planked wall -- gorgeous!
ReplyDeletehi Melissa! Thanks! The wall was pretty easy and looks so different/cool :) thanks for reading!
DeleteI only started getting into the blog world in January and your adoption story is one of the first posts that I remember reading!! Too cool. :) You've had a great 2012
ReplyDeleteThis post gave me several realizations...1) I need to take more photos, 2) I need to blog more, 3) I need to get a better sense of style, and 4) I'm very hungry and wish to take on many DIY projects.
ReplyDelete:) :) :)
Well aren't we just two of a kind ;) I did this same exact post today. Great minds think alike.. obvs! So glad that I stumbled upon your blog and that we became friends Miss Katie! Cheers to 2013 :)
ReplyDeleteLove this! As a new reader I can't wait to check some of these posts!
ReplyDeleteAww love it!! :) I didn't start following you until April/May (recommendation by a friend!), so it's neat to see what all was gong on earlier in the year!! Happy new year!!!
ReplyDeleteI love this and I also had a blast checking out some of the older posts I had missed! You are so awesome. Happy New Year!!! <3
ReplyDeleteWhat an adventurous year!
ReplyDeleteWhere did yuu get that black and white striped maxi dress?
COME VISIT&GET COMFORTABLE
COME WATCH ME
I got it from Target last year, I believe! :)
DeleteHi there! I'm new to your blog and am already loving it! I clicked on the adoption link (awesome story by the way), but unfortunately all of the photos show up as question marks. I tried on two different internet browsers (I realllllly wanted to see the pics, haha) on my Mac, but both did the same thing. Any tricks you know of to make the photos display correctly? Thanks!
ReplyDeletethank you very much! I'm not sure why, but I will go right now and update them so hopefully that fixes it!!
DeleteLovin this round-up looks like a fantastic year! Drooling over all the yummy food. Feel free to link up at my 2012 Year in review party!

I just loved reading your fav posts from 2012. Your adoption journey post was my favorite! How awesome to meet your birth mom and find out you are related to your friend! Wishing you and Billy all the best in 2013!
ReplyDeleteI just recently started following you (not quite a month ago, maybe?)... anyways, I loved this, as it gave me the highlights to your past year and helped me "catch-up" in a sense :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE those veggie tacos! And your white chandelier is seriously amazing - where is it from?? You are so cute and this has been such a busy, amazing year!
ReplyDeletePS i'm doing a year in review link-up on my blog in case you have 30 seconds and want to join this post to the party :)
