I never quite "got" the lyrics to Auld Lang Syne, but that's okay...I love that tune just the same...it always brings a tear to these sentimental eyes. So, here we are...bidding adieu to another year and welcoming in a brand new, fresh and shiny one.
Not wanting to torture you with a lot of sappy reflection, I thought I'd share with you some photos of my life this past year....
