January's prompt: how did you end 2012?

First, a heartfelt round of thanks to Sandy Snowden, who has been moderating the Ideas of Inspiration blog for the last three years.  She has left large footsteps for me to follow in!

The prompt for January is simple -- how did you end the year?  Please post a photo or two of something that you did in the last week of 2012, and use the label "end of 2012."

I was fortunate to spend the week at the beach in South Carolina.  Some of our fellow vacationers built a snowman (or more correctly, a sandman) and a beach Christmas tree out of palm fronds.
