2013 in pictures


The length of time that has passed since I've last visited this blog is really awfully ridiculous. I've seriously considered deleting the blog many times, but at the request and protest of my family/friends, I've decided to give blogging another try. 
So, in an attempt to rectify myself, I'm posting a review of 2013 in pictures I've taken. Some look like postcards- but I really did take them. :) 

I hope you enjoy!

Went to Mt. Airy, aka. Mayberry for the first time! 

fractured my foot. Definitely not something I'd like to revisit at any time.

December

Said farewell to my beloved Toyota Corolla, and was fortunate to find a great deal on this great VW Passat- it's a great car!


Celebrated a great Christmas with the family in NC.

In many ways, 2013 has been a sad year...too many deaths, too many goodbyes to loved ones. It's been a hard year. Many things haven't been enjoyable, fun, or even nice at all. But with the dawn of the new year, I'm reminded that even through the not-so-nice moments of 2013, God has great things in store for 2014- and I'm looking forward to observing his faithfulness and love in new ways. 
Here's to 2014! and to being more consistent at posting on this blog thing. 

Cheers.
