    What a great challenge! I love the thought of grouping some days together in a layout. Thanks for the great journal books, too!

    EDITed TO ADD JOURNALING...
    I'm kind of bummed that my LO is so blurry here and you can't read it. It looked great in GIMP when I was done.
    Anyway, here is the journaling:
    December 25, 2020
    The big day is here! Everyone will be here at 3. The house is all clean, the table is ready for yummy food, and we are all excited for Christmas Eve fun and games!
    NO! I can't believe it! Someone hit Cleo. She was laying on the road and I had to go get her and put her in a box. She is gone. How could this happen? She never goes near the road. Curtis saw her on the way to the store for cat food. I'm shaking, I'm so sad. not on Christmas Eve of all days. We are all crying. It's too much.

    Believe it or not, we had a fun night. We played lots of fun reindeer themed games. We laughed so hard and the 5 of us definitely needed to do that after everything with Cleo. The
    lasagna & baked ziti was so good and Kas made a yummy pumpkin cake.
    The kids are all in bed and now it's time to be Mr. C!
    It's midnight and I'm all done and ready for bed. It was a bittersweet day.

    December 25, 2020
    It's Christmas!! I'm so very tired, but it was a great day! The kids and Curtis spoiled be with a new red truck cookie jar, navy blue vest, and slippers. Avery got me two new hats, a photo album she filled with pictures and new hair clips. The kids loved their presents and there was no arguing or crying this year! Dad and Kas came over and we had a great time with them opening presents and they loved the pictures of the kids we gave them! We made lots of appetizers instead of a big Christmas dinner. Curtis almost caught the stove on fire with the bacon-wrapped crab meat, but luckily he had me there to tell him to take the smoking food out of the oven! I took a ton of pictures I can't wait to scrap. Dad & Kad brought over some old photo albums and Mom-Mom & Pop-pop's wedding pictures for me to start scanning. What a great day!

    December 26, 2020
    Oh man, I am still so very tired! The house is full of boxes, bows, and toys everywhere! We decided to go check out the Funko Pop sale so Collin could spend some of his Christmas money. He bought 4 of them for $20. We came home and made our ham dinner and I used the mixer Deb gave me to make pineapple filling. It was all so yummy! The kids played with their new stuff and Avery ordered her new shoes she was waiting for Christmas money to get. Another fun day. We still need to figure out what to do about poor Cleo, though.

    Thanks for the notebook element and the fun challenge! I'm usually more of a "pictures and clean lines" scrapper, but I enjoyed playing with art journaling in this smaller, less intimidating notebook.

    Thank you for the great challenge and the notebook! I have definitely not mastered the AJ style (I couldn't resist a couple clusters too)! I really wish I was better at it. I envy those that can do it effortlessly :heartlub

    Thankyou for the notebook to play with. I have copied those three days from my Faith Happy Planner but did not share all the prayers I have written in the planner as they are too personal. In my planner I am using a different coloured pen each day.

    This was so much fun! I wanted to add more artsy stuff but my computer started acting up so I thought I'd better to with what I had. Thank you Kim Jensen for the template! Thanks for the challenge!

    Thank you for this extremely difficult (for me) challenge! I tried to do a "puff piece" but I couldn't bring myself to chicken out on it. I scrapped the whole thing and started over... In the end, I am happy with what I did with it. I feel very exposed, though. I am trying to care less about that. Sometimes we need to talk about the hard things, too...

    Huggles!!
