Well, here's my favorite shot from 2012. I don't know that it's my best technically. But it illustrates best what I feel about the year behind us and the year ahead.

For us, 2012 was a year of many things. Accomplishments, milestones, old and new friendships and laughter -- lots of laughter. It also was a year of losses, some sadness and some burdens we take with us into the new year. This photo from my collection says it best for me: tattered, battered and torn but never defeated. I wish everyone a very happy 2013.
