It's been a bumpy couple years in our house (and probably in yours,) but 2012 was kind to us, and I'm grateful for the respite! I'd love to remember the highlights of 2012, if you'd like to come along.

I checked my iTunes for my most played song this year:

DJ Viceroy's Jet Life remix of Notorious B.I.G.'s Going Back to Cali was the runaway winner. I could spin this track for another ten years. You can download it here (but be careful of little ears, because, you know, BIGGIE.)

Lots of stitches, travel, family, and milestones. I'll remember 2012 more for its moments than the year as a whole.

I found my one resolution: support local restaurants whenever possible. It's an easy change, but one that could help your community.

Sweet, sweet 2012! We lived to see another year! (Silly Mayans . . .)

Admittedly a disaster...

Looking as awesome as Maverick, Jimmy Fallon and classroom instruments, and huge feelings of being blessed wrap up my 2012.
