Cindy at My Romantic Home is hosting a "Year in Review Blog Party", and has asked us to make a mosaic of some of our favorite pictures that have been posted in our blogs in 2008!! I thought it was a wonderful idea, so I've gathered some of my favorites, and as you can see there's a lot of pink and a lot of roses in there...!!! I started my blog less than a year ago, and I have to say it has been an incredible adventure, as I have been touched by so many people!! Bloggers are truly the best, and I appreciate your visits and comments immensely!! Thank you all, and I truly hope you will stop by and visit again soon!
I had so much fun making these mosaics that I decided to make another one featuring pictures from my all time favorite posts...!!
From left to right, top to bottom:
3 - London Calling!
4 - Bermondsey Fair and Portobello Road
5 - LISBOA
6 - Day trips and a visit to a flea market
8 - Sixteen years...

ReplyDeleteThat's me saying hi, it has been so long since I saw you I didn't know if you knew I am now bilingual... (not really) I love the pictures, I would enjoy doing that but...alas my laptop is dead and that is where the pic's are... I guess I could copy them from the blog... Never thought of that!
Well, I hope you are having a great time not sending kids off to school. When do we get vacation?
Love you!
