Since we are all recovering from shopping, wrapping, cooking, eating and eating some more, Ashley from My Front Porch Swing and I thought we would host a nice easy link up so everyone has a chance to relax.
Just create a post with 12 words or 12 pictures… a little year in review. Pick a word for each month of 2011 or a picture for each, or a 12 word sentence that sums up the year or a 12 picture collage, as long as it’s easy for you to put together and easy for others to read.
Sound fun?
Link up will open today and close January 2nd.
Hope you will join us, we look forward to remembering the year with you!

Man – I’m bummed I missed this. It would have been so much fun!
That’s what I get for not keeping up with my feed reader!
Nicole @MTDLBlog says
So my YIR is a little bit wordy…and I still want to do just a simple picture version, but I’d miss your link up if I waited for that, so I linked up my wordy-post. Great idea for a link up!
Amy says
Jeez…sorry to post so late, I didn’t think I was going to finish in time! Thank you for hosting and I look forward to checking out everyone’s Year in Review.
Elaine says

Missional Mama says
I somehow posted with just one letter above, feel free to delete it.
I wanted to say that my post is a year of favorite posts. I hope that works.
I am new to your blog, so nice to meet you. Happy New Year!

Patty at A Day in My NYC says
Thank you so much for the great link up idea. I was wondering how to wrap up 2011 and I enjoyed looking through pictures to do it. Happy New Year! ๐
Kelly K @ Dances with Chaos says
I really wanted to capture the year so I cheated a bit and did 12 collages, one for each month.
I love the thought of being able to click on one post and get a glimpse of the year, because each photo sparks so many memories.
Great link up you two!
Sarah says
Mines 11 but close enough. Ha ha!
Nicole @MTDLBlog says
Great idea! I need to get back into the swing of things and join in….here’s hoping I can get my act together in time! Happy New Year!
JDaniel4's Mom says
I had such fun looking through old pictures! Thanks!
Varda (Squashed Mom) says
What a great idea, Jessica, thanks so much for hosting! Something I could handle even with my exhausted vacation-mommy-brain. Although due to the forementioned, I misspelled my name in my linky link (missing the “e” in squashed) and forgot to check until it went up. Sigh.
Hope the last few days of 2011 are wonderful and relaxing – Ha! OK, wonderful then ๐
Jessica says
This sounds like it will be a lot of fun! I can’t wait to link up!
Practical Parenting says
so fun! Now…to get motivated…
Jessica says
This is MUCH easier than making and shipping cookies :).
angela says
Oh fun! I think I’ll work on this tonight!
Gin says
Thanks for the great idea! Just finished my post and submitted my link. Have a great new year!
Kristin @ What She Said says
I was thinking about doing one of Mama Kat’s writing prompts and choosing a favorite post from each month this year – so, 12 links. Would that work?
Of course, I make no promises as to whether I can get ANY post up at this point. I’m currently experiencing post-Christmas brain mush. ๐
Jessica says
12 links is perfect and I totally get the brain mush, we tried to make this require the least amount of brain power possible. Hope you had a great Christmas Kristin.
Shell says
Love this idea, girls!
Barbara says
What a great idea!
Jessica says

Galit Breen says
Such fun! Love it, ladies!
Making It Work Mom says
Sounds like a great idea!
Life As Wife says
I wasn’t planning on blogging until after the New Year but this link up is so perfect…
Jessica says
So glad you are thinking about joining us!
