Fun stuff Tracy!!

That's so cool Lynette!! I'm excited you're liking the hybrid album for this!!

I got my photo for last night edited and set up with one of Ali's overlays. Naturally I left my point and shoot at home after last night, so I don't have the photo for the 1st done yet. The 2nd is going to be a journaling day about why I'm doing this project. Today, I don't know yet. Hoping to get the boxes out of hte attic and start decorating

You could journal about one of you memories of Christmas from childhood and how you want to carry it on, or do something different

You could journal your Christmas playlist (if you listen to a lot of Christmas music this time of year?) lyrics to a Christmas song you like, album art, anything.

Scrap about the 'it' item you're shopping for, mounds of sales flyers that come this time of year

Scrap about something that 'smells' like Christmas to you

Write about one goal you have for this Christmas season

I wasn't excited about Shimelle's prompt for yesterday, it had to do with Christmas cards and we don't really do cards here, so I took some photos of a couple of my favorite decorations and wrote a little bit about each one, why I liked it, where it came from, etc. I called it Christmas Details.

You could journal about why you're making the album, what changes might happen as the years pass, what's different from the season now vs when you wre a kid, what you hope to make christmas like for your kids. If you have your Christmas cards done, stick it in there for hte page and write a letter to yourself (you can punch the holes in the envelope and then keep the card inside it so it's interactive/hidden away).

I did something like that last year except I made a mistake and wrote about how I had never done cards before but I thought it would be fun to do them for the first time that Christmas. Well my MIL saw the layout since I'd posted it on my blog, and for months after (seriously, till March at least) she kept bugging us about what had happened to the Christmas cards I said I was going to send out.

The sad part was I actually designed them and had them printed and everything and then I got sick and never had a chance to send them out in time. So this year I just decided to avoid the topic all together.

Thanks for the idea, Lindy! I was scratching my head trying to figure out what to do for today and this is the perfect prompt!

I'm worried about this happening next week. This week is packed full of things, but the rest of the month is kinda slow. So, any ideas would be great!

here's mine from the 4th. I skipped the 2nd because I need some pics, but I'm chugging right along
December 4th, Katie Gets Crafty! I bought katie a few kits from Michaels to make some crafty things for Christmas. Last night she made a fun foam nativity scene, and a beaded angel ornament that quite honestly, I think would have been too hard for ME, but she persevered and finished it, even though she got frustrated a time or two.

I don't think we have an SSD one. I've just been uploading to the Daily December and JYC ones.

I got nothing done this weekend. Nothing!
I'm hoping to make lots of progress tonight though. And this morning the sunrise was beautiful so I snapped a few shots of it between the houses across the street before we left for work. Hopefully they came out decent

Well I'm keeping notes on the blog and taking lots of pics, but the album is nowhere close to even assembling.

LOL, I'm caught up to day 3, but taking lots of notes and pics and also doing journalling on my private journal at www.livejournal.com

I was afraid of this happening, but I decided not to stress about it, I'm so busy enjoying living this month, that if I don't stay caught up it will give me something to do during the january blahhhs I always have. We were so busy this weekend with parades, visiting nursing home, sleepovers and practicing/doing the hanging of the greens ceremony at church. I will probably be able to get pretty caught up tomorrow and Wednesday night.

I'm loving doing my Christmas journal. This is my third year now and I'm taking photos of all my pages and add them to my blog.
