January 12of12 - originally posted January 15th

Another year, another chance to play along with one of my favorite projects- the 12of12 Challenge.  My very lovely friend, Amy Gretchen, is the brains and talent behind this project (she'll say it wasn't her idea, but I say she's the one who rallies behind it every month, so she gets the credit.)  The idea is to post 12 photos of your day on the 12th day of the month, for 12 months of the years.  I've participated for a few years in the past, and I still love to look back and see how my life looked on those particular days.  You can take a look at a few of my previous 12of12 challenges here, here or here.  I used to use graphs and I may go back to that format again, but not today.

So, here is what January 12 of 2014 looked for us.

She's such a goofball. I have no idea where she gets it from.
