Weekly Photo Challenge: Joy

Published by

on

Whether or not you celebrate a winter holiday, the years’ end is a perfect time to look back at the year-that-was and happily forward to the year-that-will-be. A time of renewal, celebration, and joy.

This week, let’s set ourselves up for a happy new year: share a photo that shows us JOY.

Michelle – The Daily Post

Joy

This weeks photo challenge asks us to share a photograph documenting a moment of joy.  The practice of recognizing and remembering small joyful moments has been an important part of our year as a family and as a result the theme of our 2013 Christmas card expressed the same sentiment.

I hope the message of peace and joy finds you all no matter how and when you celebrate your holidays and the transition to a new year.  Happy 2014 everyone!

      Thanks Sally, I wondered if I should use a summer photo for our holiday cards but now I’m happy we did.

      Thanks Patricia, I think Ryan has a great sense of style. 🙂 It’s fun to watch what he picks as a favorite each season and this hat and short combo was the winner for summer.

    It’s funny, the old end of year thing, isn’t it? But it’s nice to have the opportunity to say thank you to folks, and to look back, then forwards. I guess I’m trying to say “Happy 2014!”
