Ok, ok.....I know I missed day 19......but let me explain. It was Reindeer and the only reindeer I have in my vicinity I used on day
two. So I didn't want to reuse the same photo, so I opted out.
Day eighteen is giving. The best part of this holiday is giving to family, friends, and people in need. Whether it be a skill, an ear to listen, a shoulder, your time, or a monetary gift. Remember that the idea of the holiday is to be there for your family and friends always, but especially this time of year. My photo is a picture of all our gifts wrapped, included in those are monetary gifts and ones that are handmade by me! I am excited to see the receivers expression when they open our gifts Christmas morning!
Day twenty is memories. The top photo is of us, with my mom in our flannel pj's on Christmas Eve 2010. We were being silly and D was getting used to his new flash (that's why its kinda bright!) The bottom photo is D's sibling with their significant others on Christmas Eve 2009 (his sister has since married her beau!) It's really hard to get full family shots every year, but I wanted to include memories of past Christmas'.
Yesterday, for our office 12 Days of Christmas we got super cute coffee mugs with some hot cocoa attached. With the weather being abnormally chilly for SoCal...it was a perfect gift!
We also painted holiday bird houses! The office and the daughter of one of the managers sat down and painted, glittered and ate cookies together. It's kinda fun to see each others creations at the end! Mine was shaped like an ornament, and while I was painting I thought it looked Charlie Brown esq' but perhaps the birds will enjoy it. Tomorrow I will bring it home and tie it up on our balcony and see if our feathered friends enjoy it!
