Life has been so busy as of late, I haven't had a chance to update my December Daily album on this blog, so here are days 17-20.
Day 17: This photo documents the new look Sean is sporting...a missing front tooth. While this tooth was a little loose, it actually fell out due to an impromptu meeting with a tennis ball to the face. I still have to get used to this new look on him.
Day 18: We went to see Santa at the mall and we also went to Macy's so Sean could mail his letter to Santa.
I just love Sean's reaction after dropping the letter in the box.
I love this photo of Luke talking to Santa. This is his exact look when he is nervous or embarrassed.
Day 19: This is a simple photo of a snowstorm we experienced yesterday. All of the area schools were closed. Sean was staying home anyway because he has another bout of strep throat, but it was nice for all of us to hang out and watch Elf while the snow was falling outside.
Day 20: While this is an older photo, I saw this same text treatment on Minted.com and knew that I wanted to replicate it and put it in a frame for my home. I decided to add it to the album as well.
i am so impressed by how much you do...no, scratch that, i am so impressed by how well you do what you do! I loved all...especially the black and white, "JOY" photo.

Lovely pages, as always. I can't remember if you already mentioned this . . . but did you gather assorted supplies for your December album? Or have you been using coordinated products? Either way, the album has turned out beautifully.
Also, your "365 +1" sidebar made me wonder if you've seen the new "Project 365" kit at CK?

Hello my sweet friend!
I just caught up on your blog and I must say, your December Daily is my favorite I've seen so far.
I even like it better than Ali's!
It is so "you" and if I do one, I might have to copy it exactly. It is interesting but still clean and simple.
You are the bomb.
And so cute pregnant.
Have a Merry Christmas! I hope to see more of your pages soon.
Love, Tracie
