For the last two years I have been doing a December Daily Album, a scrapbook of each day in December with a photo and some journaling. Here are a few shots from our December so far.
December 1
Pulling out our holiday book basket and discovering our old favorites (again). Lennox screamed "I remember this book" over and over again.
December 4
Gingerbread Extravaganza at the Jacksonville Historical Society on a field trip. Amazing. Next year we have decided our school needs to enter one too.
Later that night
Listening to Polar Express on CD and reading along in the book before bed. Love this book. Never loses it's charm.
December 5
Christmas in Avondale with friends. A talk with Santa to tell him what we want for Christmas (a Transformer and a Trio Castle).
Getting giddy in the middle of Avondale after a long night.
December 6
Baby Jesus in the Batmobile. Lennox has a play nativity set. Apparently this how Baby Jesus likes to ride :-)
Decorating the Christmas tree the same day. Lennox had to wear the entire Christmas ensemble to decorate.
His section ended up being very crowded.
December 7
Lennox's favorite ornament keeps getting swiped from the tree for playtime.
Look at those dirty little sleeves after a day at school.
December 10
Visiting Santa Claus officially. Same Santa we have seen for the last five years.
He LOVED his shirt and tie.
Then a trip to Kuhn Flowers for the Christmas display.
December 11
Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom. Cold and rainy, but we had free hot chocolate all night. Lennox loved the parade and fireworks and took a trip down Splash Mountain for the first time.
December 12
Ice! at Gaylord Palms. It was 9 degrees in here. So amazing. Lennox has been talking about this for days. He told us he told his teacher and his friends all about it at school.
Then a late night at Magic Kingdom, Buzz ride and more Splash Mountain.
December 13
Jaguars vs Dolphins with the family.
And very tired during the walk back to the car.
More to come. December is always such a busy month. I love capturing the little and big moments as we get ready for the big day!
