Two years ago, I launched Memories, Dreams and Reflections for the very first time. It was an instant hit. As 2012 comes to an end, I thought it’d be great to bring back MDR as a way to remember and reflect on days past…and dream of our future through photography. I hope you will be inspired to once again take a walk down memory lane with me and share your favorites moments from 2012. Feel free to write as much or as little about each photo.

1. Me! – picture of yourself (you don’t have to show your face). What are you most proud of accomplishing in 2012? 2. I Love You – picture of your husband, boyfriend, children, pets, etc. 3. Still Laughing… – a moment you’re still laughing about now…tell us a story. 4. Winter Wonderland – a picture that reflects Winter. 5. Birthday – share a birthday picture (your own or someone you love). 6. Friends – a picture with friends (this could be your friends or your children with their friends). 7. I Was Inspired… – could be a picture of your inspiration (person or thing), or inspired by… 8. Spring Fever – a picture that reflects Spring. 9. Travel or Vacation – a picture taken on vacation or on a recent travel experience…even if it was only a few miles away. 10. Summer Days – a picture that reflects Summer. 11.

The beauty of “Memories, Dreams and Reflections” is that you don’t really have to photograph anything new, but share photos you’ve taken all year long. Want to join us? Here’s how:

Grab the button above and feel free to share it on your blog.

Sign up by adding your blog to the linky below – everyone is invited! You can sign up through the end of the year and visit other bloggers who are joining the party.

Start going through your 2012 archives and select photos that represent each prompt (or take a few new photos).

Feel free to write as much or as little about each prompt as you’d like.

Feel free to post more than one picture for each prompt if you think it’s necessary (I will likely only post one picture per prompt). If you don’t have a picture to represent the prompt, skip it…participate as much or as little as you’d like.

If you use any photos that are not your own, please provide a source.

On January 1, 2013 I will post a link-up. You can post your collection of photos at that time.

Have fun!
