December Daily Days 18-21

Happy Wednesday and Happy New Year's Eve!!! I can't believe it's the last day of 2014!!! I feel like we just did this!! The years are going faster and faster as I get older!! Time needs to slow down a little!! I wanted to hop on early and share 4 more days from my December Daily chunky mini book!! Today I'm sharing days 18-21.

Day 18: I must have been living under a rock because I had seen a lot of cards, notebooks, and other stationary items from Rifle Paper Co all over my instagram feed and found out that they're flagship store and production space is local!!! We took our dog Daisy to get groomed near the shop so we stopped by for the first time ever on our way to pick her up. I took a quick picture, which I attached to the back of our holiday card (used some strong adhesive) and snagged a business card...both while I was being checked out! Used a to/from tag from the Studio Calico 25 days class printables to type up the story! I just made it relevant to the page by covering up the to/from part of the tag!!

Day 19: One of the gifts my husband got for his birthday was How To Train Your Dragon 2. To say he LOVES those movies would be an understatement. He couldn't wait to watch it so we broke it out!! Took a selfie of me and our new cat laying on him at the end of the movie. Love this page and the memories it holds!!

Day 20: We don't have any human kids but we do have 4 furbabies. One of my favorite photos from a few years back is one of our little family the December before we lost our first dog, Apollo that following June. I am so thankful to have taken that photo!! This year, I knew with 3 cats it would be impossible to have everyone in one picture, so I suggested a selfie with each of our "kids" to my hubby and he was completely onboard with the idea!! I made sure to add the ages of each baby so as we look back we can get a sense of time. I'm already excited about doing this again in 2015 because I can't wait to see how much our newest addition has grown, considering he's only 2 months old!!

Here's how days 19 and 20 look in the album.

Day 21: Crazy Christmas Cookie Baking day!!! I hate to cook but I LOVE to bake!! This year m hubby was able to help and I loved that we were able to do this together this year!! I took a photo of the tray of cookies we kept home. The rest went to work with me the next day!! We usually keep a small sample of each cookie to enjoy!!   We made a lot of cookies and fudge...it took pretty much all day...but I LOVED every minute of it and will do it again next year in a heart beat!! The opposite side of the page is another 3x4 card from the Studio Calico 25 days class kit. I just altered a page protector so the card wouldn't slip slide around!! I ended up adding a circle label to the outside of the page, which you'll see on Friday when I share the last 4 days of this chunky little mini book!!

I'll be back later to share our New Year's Eve selfie for wordless Wednesday!! Do you have big plans for tonight?? I have to work today but I'm off in plenty of time to go out and celebrate a little! Hope you get to as well!! Until next time...thanks for stopping by!!
