Once again, its that time of year where the kitchen table is rarely used for eating as I completely covered it in my December Daily (DD) things :) If you are new to DD, click here for tips to getting started. So this year i've used a kaisercraft 6x8" album to document all my things in. And to do something a little different, I put all our thumbprints on the back cover, turned them into reindeers as a way to watch the family grow each year. Below is my foundation pages, i've got some in pockets and others just as is. Remember you can add as little or as much as you like to each page, its completely up to you. Alrighty, with that said, here is the rest of my album (product list is below) enjoy! front cover title page day 1: getting out the decorations (just before gastro hit....) day 2: our big, colorful chrissy tree, we all decorated it this year, yep kids included and boy did they do a great job! day 3: meet our little mate wally (our family's take on elf on the shelf), he gets found each day and moves the tick on the stocking to how good the kids have been. also love the filler card ty made for me to put in the album (right photo, top right). day 4: making our gingerbread house, i finally got around to ordering a gingerbread house cutter set and it worked an absolute treat. the kids did a great job of adding the lollies to it (needs a bit more i think :) day 5: 11 years married today...awww... day 6: my favourite christmas ornament this year, a specail treat from the hubby. day 7: church christmas carols (little drummer boy was A M A Z I N G, no singing just drums) day 8: trying a new recipe for dinner - jamie oliver potato gratin with roast chicken day 9: ty having his last transition, getting all ready for prep next year day 10: coopers cold school christmas carols day 11: ty's kinder concert, including dress ups, singing and actions too.... day 12: celebrating our friends wedding down at the beach day 13: enjoying a lovely 'kid-less' free morning breakfast day 14: kids leading church this morning day 15: last day of kinder for a middle little guy Day 16: photo of our finished tahiti holiday wall with the edition of our photobook (below the H) day 17: just an ordinary day of watching sesame street & waving bye to big bros... day 18: and then i turned 29 +1 OH DEARY ME!!!! day 19: a trip to the city and a birthday catch up with friends. day 20: keeping it simple with a favourite quote at the moment: the little things day 21: making some baily's white chocolate fudge day 22: flowers around the garden day 23: two turtle doves - whoops i mean ducks day 24: three little munchkins day 25: christmas is here

I have to be honest michelle, this is my first time using an actual album so i have nothing else to compare it too, so i've been really happy with it. the only thing is i couldn't find the square grid album pages to go with it, not sure if kaiser sell these or not :)
