Our final day of celebrating Christmas this year fell on the day after Christmas with us spending the morning with hubby’s family.

I love how all of the cousins are looking at the camera with the exception of the littlest.

That girl!

December 26th~

Earlier in the week I had found this little iron on gem from Sara at Confetti Sunshine and knew it had to be included in my album.

My bag of coal~

Not to mention I made several to give away. He he.

I simply used supplies I already had at home including left over Studio Calico fabric bags and Avery Dark Fabric Iron On paper.

I think they’d look better using the regular Iron On paper, but they’re still cute.

With our Christmas celebrations over and my mini album turning out to be not so mini I thought it was the perfect time to end this year’s album.

Especially with my desk looking like this~

For my cover I used a Christmas image I believe was originally from a Jessica Sprague email from last year.

My cover~

I added a bow from one of our Christmas packages and a few sparkly chipboard hearts.

And with that I have packed up all the Christmas scrapbooking supplies for now and can actually see the top of my desk again.

What kind of mess should I make now? He he.

I used~

October Afternoon December Story Kit, Ali Edwards December Daily Kit, Pretty Little Studio For You Image, Heidi Swapp Christmas Paper Pad, Various October Afternoon Christmas Collections, Webster’s Pages, Simple Stories Snap Album & Page Protectors, Jingle Thickers, Papertrey Ink Twine, Jingle Bells, Wink Of Stella, Acetate, Enamel Dots, Sprinkles from the Papertrey Ink Make It Now Market Kit

I’ve tried to list most of my supplies, but if you have any questions please ask.

Christmas morning…

There’s nothing quite like it is there?

Especially with young children around.

The excitement level at my parent’s house on Christmas Day was barely contained.

And I loved every minute of it!

December 25th~

So I decided to use a picture of all the cousins together making funny faces for this day.

Since Santa seemed to think all of these children were on the Nice List and visited them, I included an image from Pinterest as well.

Both pages together~

I can hardly believe how quickly December has gone by.

And I do believe someone in this house has already started the countdown to next Christmas.

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

Especially at our house, because we were at the movies. He he.

With Christmas Day falling on Thursday this year it meant I had to work on Christmas Eve.

Which meant our normal Christmas Eve plans with Travis’s family got bumped.

Which also meant we had a free night.

So, we headed to the movies.

I started with another printable from Pinterest, because it was just too cute not to use.

December 24th right side~

I had to include a selfie of Holden and me in our extremely stylish 3D glasses.

And I slipped our ticket stubs in as well.

Pages together~

In case you were wondering the Hobbit was fantastic.

Luckily Holden received the first two movies as a gift, so we watched those Christmas Day and the day after.

Now I’m anxious to run out and buy the Fellowship of The Rings trilogy to watch too. Hmmm…

So you know how you politely ask your teenage children to do one little teeny, tiny thing for you…

and guess what happens?

They forget.

Sigh.

Travis and I were pretty much house bound this weekend with the littlest who has a horrible case of the sniffles.

Of course, we’ve taken turns getting the Big Kids where they need to be.

Since caroling has been on the calendar for a few weeks I thought for sure the Big Kids could take a picture of two for me to include as today’s December Daily page.

That would be so much better than the pile of used tissues that I’ve been surrounded by.

But, they didn’t.

So, I made go outside our house and pose.

December 21st~

I also made them sing for me which was hysterical since neither one likes to sing. Ha!

I bet they remember next time I ask for pictures. He he.
