As 2011 comes to an end, I love to go back through my photos and take a mental "snapshot" of the year.
My friend from Hawaii posted a good quote recently about pictures, saying that,"You never see the hard times in a photograph, but that's what gets you from one happy snapshot to the next."
Sure life has it's ups and downs, but being that New Year's Eve is fast approaching, a little rosy retrospection never hurt anyone! Let's take a little snapshot review of my past year:
