Christmas Photo Countdown Calendar - Day 1

Note: I'm totally copying this idea, but the blogger suggested it so it must be ok. I got the idea from the blog Mila's Daydreams. If you haven't seen it you really should check it out. The pictures she creates with her daughter are just so dang cute. She makes me wish I had at least a single ounce of creativity, but unfortunately I don't so which is why I'm copying her.

I'm not normally one who is excited about Christmas. Yes, I like it, but its not my favorite holiday. I think it comes from all the years while I was growing up that everybody put Christmas decorations up before Thanksgiving. It gave me the impression that no one really cared about Thanksgiving. For most people its not really a big deal, but considering I was born on (the actual day of) Thanksgiving it really urked me. Although my birthday was a little different this year (I made it into a birthday week celebration even though Todd didn't agree with my decision) there were still many people that had decorations up. To try to enhance my holiday mood which might be hard pretty hard I'm going to try to do a photo countdown calendar to Christmas.

I have a couple of disclaimers I should make you aware of:
1. It might be unusually harder to get me in the Christmas spirit considering we are temporarily living in Little Rock, Arkansas. We have a very slim to none chance of getting any snow during the winter. For those of you who know me snow is one of my favorite things!
2. I may not get the post up on a daily basis, but my goal is to at least take one picture per day leading up to Christmas. Depending how it goes maybe I'll extend it to New Years .... but no promises.
3. Even though the intent of this is to put me in the holiday spirit some of my pictures may not have anything to do with Christmas (See Below).

Day 1: My two sweet boys taking a nap. Todd had a long day at work and Cowboy in general has a "hard" life.
