What was the best blog post you wrote this year?  What was the best post or blog you read?

It was back in the summertime. I was sneaking into VOX while at work. I somehow came upon this post by a woman who described in great detail having to pee while stuck in a traffic jam. She and her husband were driving into the US from Canada I believe. She talked about considering all of the options she had as far as peeing in the car: a box of kleenex, various newspapers and magazines and a mans pee jug that her husband had. She talked about taking her jeans off and putting them back on three times before she finally decided she HAD to go. She talked about how it felt like an out of body experience. It was REALLY hilarious! She said she asked her husband what to title it after they got home and she wrote it and he told her to call it "Some crazy lady pee'd in my car" (or something to that effect).

If this sounds familiar to anyone or if anyone has this in their favorites could you please post me the link? I thought for sure I had saved it but it isn't in my favorites. If anyone read it they would remember it for sure. That was DEFINITELY the best blog post I read this year.

What's the best photo you took this year?  Show and tell!

Same as most people, there's no way I can pick just one. AND since today is my ONE YEAR VOXIVESARY it's an excellent opportunity for me to summarize a great year of VOXING and PHOTOGING! So here goes!

 

I love this picture I took of Hailey, my Mom and my two nieces on Thanksgiving. It was a full body shot but I cropped it to a sort of banner size. To me it kind of looks like the promo shot for some new drama show. My Mom as the rich, bitchy, intimidating matriarch and her three, beautiful, but spoiled Granddaughters LOL!

 

 

 

 

I love this picture of Jessica feeding Alex that I took on Christmas Eve. My sister was taking pictures too but after I had already snapped this totally natural shot she was telling Jessica to look up and smile. I like mine better because Jessica is looking at Alex so lovingly while she feeds him. It's a beautiful Mother and Child photo.

 

I love this picture I took of Alex with the Christmas teddy bear. He looks like a little baby doll!

 

 

These are my two favorite 'stills' from Christmas. I had such a good time fixing everything up and then taking pictures!

 

 

Michael and Alyssa working on the tangled lights. I enjoyed watching them as they giggled about who was pulling on which strand. They were really cute so I just had to snap a pic of them.

 

I've really had a blast this year taking pictures of food. It's something new for me that I just started doing when I joined VOX. Here's a few of my favorites:

 

 

 

 

 

Wow, I would definitely have to say that parades and football games were a big part of my life this year. I went to many and took lots of photos. Here are some of my favorites from this year:

I've also tried my hand at taking pictures of nature subjects this year. Here are a few of my favorites:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My fur babies have also been excellent subjects this year.

 

But I would have to sum it up by saying the best pictures I have taken this year have been of Hailey AFTER getting her braces off and her bridge done. It fills my heart with joy to see her smiling with confidence, especially after all we had been through with her teeth. She's always been a beautiful girl and she deserves nothing less than a beautiful smile!
