What does Christmas, Boxing Day and the holidays mean to you? How do you celebrate and farewell one year, at the same time marking the beginning of a new one?
Maybe time to catch up with friends and family for a few drinks...share presents and stories of the past 12 months, watch some fireworks or maybe just a quiet night on the couch with your favourite movie?
For me, it's about reflecting on the ups and downs of a year passed - faster than the blink of an eye - muse over how close you came to achieving those lofty goals you made way back in January....
This time, I decided to do it in pictures.

It really was a busy and challenging year. But when I look back through the photos I have, I can only be thankful of the great opportunities I was gifted. And be grateful that there always is a silver lining to the cloud. I may not have met all my goals for 2011, but I sure did have a great deal of fun along the way.
