Today is the last day of November for us here and tomorrow we will be going full head-on with December’s countdown to Christmas! 25 days to Christmas?! Are you excited?

I think I am. Slowly, getting excited, that is. I still haven’t gotten our tree up but will take care of it today as I promised the kids we will. Black diamond earrings will be kept in the drawers as I am going to be in my jammies all day, listening to Christmas tunes and getting into the holiday spirit.

If you are asking me if I am going to be doing a December Daily album, the answer to that would be a NO. Since it’s too late for me to actually prepare for one and I am almost certain I would not be able to take a picture everyday for December. With the kids in school and me being busy with work and trying to rest as much as I can (sick again!), I don’t want to pressure myself into documenting the season. For once, I think I’m just going to be laid back, and see what happens afterwards. (I got to do my Christmas Album 2010 in June 2011 – so, you get the picture).

However, I have some Christmas favorite kits already 🙂

I really wanted to do a 5×7 album this year since I still have my Evalicious Christmas hybrid album from 2008:

We will see, you can read about how Lynnette did hers (and plan to do hers along the way), here.

And some of the kits I am partial with:
Deck The Halls: Collection by Kristin Cronin-Barrow

KCB’s Christmas Collection ALWAYS ALWAYS ends up to be a favorite. I have used her Christmas collection last year for my 2010 album and I have been so pleased with it. (Plus her colors are very friendly with a Christmas that doesn’t experience snow and winter dont you think? :D)

Now, Dani’s kit HAS a snowman, granted. But the papers are just so yummy! Very child-like (like my kids) —- and I am guilty of ordering Christmas PJs to match THAT kit 😀

And for those who want the paper-ish look and feel, Jenn’s kit is perfect. All the tidbits are going straight into my Christmas album I can tell:
