2013 has been a year packed full of adventure, fun and lots of moments to remember here are a few (okay more than a few but wow it was hard to choose)…

We had a great time building the Hobbit house for Sammie’s birthday under the direction of my fabulously talented sister, Katie who owns Numen Development where she builds cool sustainable houses out of recycled shipping containers ๐Ÿ™‚

One of my favorite pictures of the year captured at sunset on Amelia Island

Camping at Fort Clinch State park our family self portrait
Sammie and Joe dressed and ready to rock out DragonCon one of the biggest SCI-FI Conventions here in the US

An owl rock I created – Many memories and fun art were created at Art nights this year!

Our Texas summer road trip and helping out Papa and Ma at the Farmer’s Market

Mom retired after 40+ years of teaching and we did a family butt shot in front of her classroom to go with the other shots we have in front of famous places ๐Ÿ˜‰

I have a cool app on my phone called Roadside Attractions and on one trip it led us to a reproduction of the Munster’s House ๐Ÿ™‚

Several trips to the Georgia aquarium this year with lots of friends and family!

In the summer we took our troop of 16 girl scouts to Savannah to the Juliette Gordan Low house and Tybee Island!
Many “ordinary/extraordinary” moments happened in carpool this year including some fun sunrises captured

Sammie took up photography as a hobby which has been delightful to watch and help capture moments

Mom and Dad came to visit from Texas ๐Ÿ™‚

My sister Katie also got to visit several times and our phone conversations and laughter are memory builders for sure!

Orchestra events have been fun – Alex plays Cello and Sammie the Bass this year
Good memories captured around  several camp fires this year ๐Ÿ™‚

The Great Blue Heron – seen on almost every kayaking trip we took ๐Ÿ™‚
