Advent Calendar

I'd been really wanting an Advent Calendar this year, so imagine my surprise when I pulled out all my Christmas decorations yesterday and discovered this one I made last year -- which I had totally forgotten I even had! And since yesterday really began the countdown, it came just in time.

I know this came as a kit, a countdown of how many days until Christmas, but I decided to make it a pictoral one, using some of my favorite Christmas photos. You know how they get put away in albums and you hardly ever see them? What a great way to be able to view them at least once a year! When family comes over on Christmas Day they love looking through all the old pictures.

(I tried getting these in order with the 24th being the first one, but it was just not worth the trouble the way Blogger works.)
