Thank you
Eileen for giving me this idea to do a pictorial recap of the year!
What lovely reminders of the blessings of 2023!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angela. Yes, it was a year filled with many blessings. I hope that 2024 will be equally blessed for us all.
DeleteWhat a great year! Love seeing your photo recap.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sharon. :)
DeleteWhat a wonderful year!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jozien. Wish you all the best for the new year. I checked your blog on New Year's Day, but didn't see any new posts. I'll check your blog, later tonight. :)
DeleteLove the year in review photos!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Anne. :)
DeleteI really enjoyed seeing your year in photos and I enjoyed seeing Dancer's year in photos too, a double treat :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you Eileen. :)
DeletePlenty of good food and good memories! Love FD xx
ReplyDeleteYes, definitely. It was a good year, overall. :)
DeleteWonderful photo recap of the year. You certainly had an abundance of harvests from your garden.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mary-Lou. Yes, I did have an abundance of produce from the garden! I was very pleased with what I was able to harvest. :)
DeleteThat was fun and shows how important the plant world is to you.
ReplyDeleteThank you, June. Yes, the garden loomed large, didn't it? :)
DeleteThat was neat to see all the pictures and remember with you the interesting things that happened in your life in 2023.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Bushlady. It was fun to look back and see what I had going on each month. :)
DeleteI enjoyed the photo trip through your year. Lots of wonderful memories of a good year.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Debra. Yes, it was a good year, wasn't it? :)
DeleteYour year was filled with blessings and positivity. If you're anything like me, it's not until you look back over the year that you realise how much you have accomplished and enjoyed. Have you worn your lovely sweater? Xx
ReplyDeleteYes, Jules; it was a very good year and just how good it was, was brought into focus when I reviewed it. :) Yes, I've worn the sweater and it is nice and comfy (and warm, too).
Delete- after floating around your blog to different dates, now I can't remember if I responded on this one or not. Oh well, if so then you hopefully won't mind reading another response. lol
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed seeing all of these pictures from the year. Yes, lots of wonderful colorful food which is always nice to look at.
I forgot about your blue and black block sweater so it was nice seeing that again.
And of course all of the Dancer pictures as he makes his way through the calendar.
LOL, well, yes, you did comment earlier, Debra, but, that's OK. I always enjoy reading your comments. I'm glad you enjoyed the year in review, both Dancer's and mine. :)
