A Baker's Dozen from 2010

Today's You Capture assignment was to post your Ten Favorite Photos from the past year.  What an assignment!  I have spent the last three nights poring over my photo files, trying to narrow it down.  Alas, I can only narrow it to 13 (or so), which I think is pretty good considering that I probably took a few thousand photos this last year. I was amazed at how many there were to go through! It's also amazing to see my pictures pre-photo class compared to after.  I wish we could do our vacation over - the pictures would be so much better this time around...

Anyway, in no particular order, here are some of my favorites from the year:


This is our newest family member, Fiona.  She's adorable - which is a good thing - because she's a feisty little monster, bullying our other dog. 
But how can you get mad at that face?



The girls, asleep on our vacation.

One of many dead trees in my picture collection.  It drives the family crazy, but I love them.  There's just something about their strength and the way they're still standing, still reaching for the sun, still beautiful in a totally different way...

Braden laughing, one of my favorite sounds ever. 

Scene from the Durango-Silverton Narrow Gauge Train.  Every minute of the 3 1/2 hour ride was gorgeous!

My man, Willis.

Annie, the girl who loves me above all others :o)

Meatball.  'Nuf said...

My favorite model...

My Uncle Ken and his newest grandson, Jackson. 




So there you have it...  I can't wait to see what the next year brings!
P.S.  The baker can't count.  Oops...
