Out with the old...in with the NEW!

I am having serious trouble believing that it is going to be 2012 in only a few short hours.  O.O

So many amazing things happened this year!  It's been amazing!!!!  My year in pictures, and then my New Year's Resolutions will follow. ;)

In the very beginning of this year....The Lakehouse Forum was just getting off the ground!  :D  Now we're 92 members strong, and growing!  :)

I opened my blog in Mid-Late January of last year.  Only 20 days until my Blogoversary!!! :)

I've read countless books, gotten more into the Star Wars Expanded Universe, read and published my own Fanfiction, and written a novel.  All this year.  0.0

My Love for Star Wars has grown by leaps and bounds, and has been joined by other fandoms such as:

Indiana Jones

How To Train Your Dragon

Johnny Tremain <3

The Muppets...technically I was already a huge fan, but it's a new phenomenon now!

Pride and Prejudice...thank you Ley. 

TRON: Legacy

A Very Potter Musical 

Wicked!
