Lots of counting down happening around here. Lots of talk about Santa and where he is coming from and when and all that goodness. It’s been fun to have a simple calendar on the refrigerator that Simon created at school for marking off the days.

Simply beautiful! We are doing the counting down here too!
So cool to see another post from you so soon. =) How do you like those jumbo stamps? The see-through-ed-ness on the block stamps seems really cool, never seen that before.
p.s. Your DD releases today are my very favorites so far!! Especially the Photography Word Art and Crumpled Notes! ***** =)
Your album is great Ali. I love the stamped page.
You are the best blogger! I just love to check in and find you made time for us again. Such fun. I’m having such fun working on my book, and am so excited that I’m actually keeping up with the journaling each day. Your book is so wonderful and I always love to see your photos. Can’t wait for tomorrow. Mac
wow, what an adorable scrap book! for some reason i had no idea that there were only 12 days til christmas… wow!
Ali you are such an inspiration, I have scrolled down and read all the comments you have added about this journal I love it and if its ok with you I want to pinch your idea to start a journal from the 24th Christmas eve.Thats when we load up and go to the beach for the holidays.I want to capture each day my parents are coming and they are in their eighties this could possibly be the last holiday we all share together and I want to record it all so Jack has this wonderful history for when he is all grown up ,to look back on .We have this gorgeous big caravan right on the beach on the east coast of the north island in nz a little place called Pakiri we call it heaven………
Have a wonderful Christmas Ali I hope simon gets all that he wishes for and good luck with your next big adventure baby no:2

My girls love making a paper chain to countdown the days. It looks sooooo long in the beginning and it’s so fun to watch it shrink.
I really love all your December Daily posts. But this one I especially LOVE those words you stamped in cranberry. I am going to go buy those right now! Thanks for including the link.
