Bella Boxes quilt square close up
Each year is made up of moments. Most of them flow together in a swirling river that winds its way through the days and weeks. It is hard for me to discern individual events when they are in the past, as I am often looking forward to what is coming next.
My photos help me remember the passage of time. With the way my computer stores my photos I can be reminded of the order of things have happened.
As I reflect on the year I am reminded of some of my favorite moments.
Here is a look back at 2011 in photos.
