I thought it would be fun if we had a bit of a year in review post…Today I am sharing with you the most visited posts of 2012.
We had so much fun chronicling our life in photo this last year. I will definitely be using this list as a reminder again in 2013!

Normally I wouldn’t post a round-up, but this one was soooo popular. I am always amazed at how simple, simple decoration can make such a HUGE difference. I used a couple of these tutorials this past year and they were all easy to implement.

This is my favorite hot chocolate recipe. I like this mix better than any store bought recipe and it’s so much cheaper!

Instagram has become the go-to social networking app for so many of us. Make sure ALL of your readers can keep up and add a little visual bling to your sidebar with this easy tutorial.
Let’s be honest. When it comes to getting ready in the morning, I am LAZY. I love shortcuts and this beachy spray was a lifesaver this last summer! If the weather weren’t so cold I would let my hair air dry with it every day.

Each and every February we’re paid a visit by the love bugs…They leave little love notes and gifts for the kids around Valentine’s Day. We usually kick of the visit with a themed snack and the kids loved making these cookie bugs.
How to Create a Blog Editorial Calendar

Hey Kim, try it again. I was having some trouble with the back end on my site this morning and that post was showing a little wonky. I just checked it though and it looks like it’s working now!
Great list, Tauni!
Hope you’re feeling ok!

Thanks for hosting this end-of-the-year party, Tauni! Not sure how I missed your homemade beach waves spray, but I’m definitely going to try it because I love beach sprays and creams year-round! (Well, my hair does…at least I think it does!) Happy New Year!
Laura / The Shed / Pet Scribbles / Socks for Sandy recently posted..My Top 10 Most Popular Blog Posts for 2012
Thanks Laura! My hair loves this stuff year-round actually. In fact, I used it this morning! I am cautious not to use it too much simply because I think the salt is a bit drying, but I still use it at least once or twice a week. xoxo, Tauni
Great to see a summary of the year…I headed over to the editorial post right away!
