So I've been a bad blogger. But, it's for good reason. We're moving into our house this weekend and there's been a lot of action around here. (Name the Christmas movie that quote came from ;)!)
So M learned to be a plumber. He's a real man now.
He and my Dad have been plugging away putting trim and molding in our bathrooms among other things. Manly activities.
Then I got a new mailbox! So cute. M put it up for me. Again, M being a 'man'.
And I had a little visitor yesterday. My favorite-of the baby variety!
But at the end of my day of touching up paint and waiting for security people to arrive among other things-I set up a few things in the corner of the dining room with all of the boxes.
And I did a few December Daily pages.
December 3:
I did my first full page picture.
My best friend's sister is having a baby and I'm so excited for her. Her baby shower was on Saturday. I used a tag for a little embellishment and added some pics of her and her mom and all of us on the phone with my bf who is in Ottawa and had to missed the shower.
December 4:
I left the pocket page plain here because my pattern paper was pretty busy. Just a little embellishment there.
My mom started decorating the house on Sunday evening. It's the first time in 4 years I've been around to help her get the house ready. It was nice to slip back into old traditions. I used a Polaroid to matte my photos and found the perfect chipboard embellishment.
December 5:
I spent the entire day on Monday doing things around the house but I blasted some serious holiday tunes while I did it and thus the theme of Monday's page.
I used the whole page for the title of my favorite Christmas song- "Merry Christmas Happy Holidays" by N'Sync.
Yeah. I know. But, I love it. We go way back. So I stamped all the journaling. It took a while but I love the way it turned out. I even found some music paper for the bottom.
So I have stories for Tuesday and Wednesday but obviously the pages aren't quite done yet. Who knows when that will happen?!
It's almost Friday.

P.S: that quote is from 'Home Alone'. You know the part when Harry is at the McAllister's house as the cop and speaking to Kate, the mother. He's says 'there's a lot of action around here'. It's my favorite movie.
Congrats on the new house!!! and Im loving your DD!!! love all the details!
ReplyDeleteI was listening to an online, Christmas radio station and they played that N*Sync song- I swear I had to hold myself back from running upstairs to grab my hairbrush to use as a microphone.... hahaha Man oh man, N*Sync and I go waaaaay back. =)
