December 2012 in Instagram

January 8, 2013 · Narrative

My creation
Wow. This one was seriously hard to put together. I’m limited to 36 photos, and I was doing fine until I got to December 24th. Through the end of the month.

Between Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Years’ Eve, and our trip to Bethlehem, the Aquarium, and Liberty Science Center… all in the space of one weeks’ worth of time … I had to make some really hard choices.

Which I consider to be a really good thing.

But it was a very full and happy month.

And that happens to be my very favorite kind.

You can see the November review here, and October, and September.

*I’m cateomalley on Instagram if you’d like to follow along.
