Our Year: 2013

So the hot thing to do on blogs is a year review or something like that. And I definitely can’t be left behind.
This took some work to go back and look things up and I’m not really into doing a lot of work, so read and make me feel better about the time I spent on this post.

Along with “move viewed”, I also slipped in “my favorite” post of the month too…. which sometimes is closer to the least viewed….. haha.
