Thank you for visiting my blog, and a very big welcome if you have come here via the December Daily Blog Hop. This has come from a Facebook Page which is an offshoot from the awesome Project Life Australia Group - another Facebook group which is a great place to hang out and a very cool environment for sharing PL layouts.

The December Daily Facebook Group has been sharing and creating all month and a few of us have joined together to share our finished albums via this blog hop.  The hopping order is below, so if you did not start at the beginning, please make sure to check below for the link. A big thank you to Lisa Wilkinson for organising this.

Here is my December Daily:

I had so much fun with this project this year. I made some adjustments as I went along – I ended up with far more digital pages than I had originally planned but some of those were put together on planes when I went away for work (or in hospital waiting to be discharged from ED…. )

I hadn’t spent much time putting foundation pages together beforehand because I have found in the past (this is my 5th year of December Daily) that that approach doesn’t really work for me. It is the creating of something new each day that keeps me interested.

What did really work for me this year, particularly in terms of keeping me up to date, was the daily link up on Ali Edwards’ blog. I was determined to have this finished on the 26th December and this helped me a huge amount.

And the links to the individual days:

• Day One
• Day Two
• Day Three
• Day Four
• Day Five
• Day Six
• Day Seven

Thank you for joining us today! I would highly recommend December Daily as a way of documenting the holiday season. Check out this post on Ali Edwards’ blog for more information.

Day 24 and FINALLY we get some rain! Such a relief from the hot and humid days we have had recently. We popped into the shops for a couple of last minute things and then went home and enjoyed the cooler conditions

Christmas Day is here! Flynnie was so excited and had the best day. Sawyer is teething and was very miserable but luckily got some really good sleep in the middle of the day.

And that is the end of my December Daily for 2012. I will post my final week of Project Life for 2012 next week and then it begins all over again. I am excited to get back into PL after the intensity of 25 days of December Daily.

Great catch up with friends today – Elle had made the most amazing pretzel and chocolate treats

It had been raining on and off since last night (hooray!) but the boys still got a chance to play in the backyard and let off a bit of steam before coming back in for icy poles in front of the TV.

Feeling very happy that I decided to take some time off from work this year – a good feeling

Finally we made it to Stable on the Strand! Sawyer was at home with gastro today but had perked up by the time we picked Flynnie up and we went straight down there.

We met up with some friends and went straight into Bethlehem! It was great fun with heaps for the kids to do.

It is one of the nicest things that happens in Townsville.

The journalling says it all! Turned out that the gear stick had jumped out of the cable connecting it to the gears. We got it going again to get home and then Neal and a mechanic mate had to pull the whole centre console out to replace the cable system.

Love my car but it let me down today Luckily the Stable on the Strand goes until Saturday. Determined to get there….

I hadn’t planned a fully digital page for today but one of the fallout effects from Saturday night in ED is a huge haematoma on the top of my left hand which is so painful that I decided to just go digital. December 2012 has been a bit of a roll with it month all round!
