She even forced my Dad back to the shops because she had forgotten grapes and she HAD to have grapes! Why? We made a point of NOT eating them.

I took photos wrote notes made several pages was gonna catch up and do more but life got in the way! Especially once dad got admitted to hospital I just didn't feel like doing anymore! I still have 'my christmas' all piled up in the corner I think I need to admit defeat and clear it all away.

I've done a December Daily type album the past two years, but 2011 I just wasn't inspired for that type of project either. So glad you've captured the good, the funny, & the not-so-good of your Christmas.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04650193963974000786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2120354805323523792.post-86567290423057791332012-01-17T12:55:48.133+00:002012-01-17T12:55:48.133+00:00I think that's a perfect plan - and it's a...I think that's a perfect plan - and it's a beautiful page.

I am pinning your page for sure! And I totally don't understand how anybody has time to journal Christmas while it's happening. Something else can't be getting done - at least it wouldn't in this house.Susannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01769556455551856486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2120354805323523792.post-71939330488657982652012-01-17T00:17:55.946+00:002012-01-17T00:17:55.946+00:00I finally finished mine - but I was not happy with...I finally finished mine - but I was not happy with my format this year either and struggled to get into it.
