12 on the 12th | January

I'm excited to finally be doing this project! Last year whenever I would see Amy M. posting about her 12 photos on the 12th of the month I would always wish I were doing it, but would consistently forget. I guess 2010 is my year. Thanks, Amy, for reminding us and for providing the template to simplify the process!




1. making lunches
2. Eva's breakfast
3. trip to the Orem library
4. my drink of choice (not necessarily cherry, though)
5. Eva eating 2 licks of a candy cane. She's always finished after that.
6. working on a photo project with my Paris pictures
7. making chocolate chip cookies
8. thank you card from Jill
9. doing puzzles with Eva
10. cutting carrots for dinner
11. Max doing geography homework
12. reading my new book in bed, a delicious way to end the day!

I wish I had taken a picture of all of us watching the season premiere of American Idol. The end.

I love what you captured. It really does tell a unique story to have all the photos put together in little squares. I'm loving this.

We went to the library too.

Jill said...

I love how yours turned out, give yourself a smack, why did you tell me it was ugly...as if!

I'm so delighted that my good mail label made it into your day!

What is this Paris photo project you're working on? How can Eva be done with a candy cane in two licks?

I see Max is still making sure his homework is perfect!

Elizabeth said...

I loved doing this too. Love your choices.

These are good. Your green mixer has me smitten. And I love that carrot sauce recipe- I make it about once a month!

Oh my gosh this is the awesomest idea ever! I'm hopping right on this bandwagon.

Also, I'm with Eva. I spit out those peppermints that restaurants give me all of the time.

Okay, I've gotta go post 12 pictures.

Love this project!!!! I will totally try and get my act together for next month...

Michelle said...

I want Eva's breakfast - I don't know why that looks so good. I love the frog and toad picture - still one of my favorite series!

Becky said...

I always love your photos and this is no exception--great collage!

Charlotte said...

That sounds like a perfectly lovely day! And ending the day by reading a book in bed is pure quintessence.

Such a delightful look into your day! I love this idea. I'm trying to decide if I can take it on or if it is asking too much right now.

So little to do, so much time.
Strike that.
Reverse it.

Love your green mixer! And seeing how meticulous Max is with his homework. I never think to bring my camera into the library. Must remember next time!

Miranda said...

I really have no idea what you are talking about not liking your 12. Your photos are always beautiful Michelle.

Marie said...

What a great idea! Such pretty pictures, Michelle!

As the daughter of a veteran Kindergarten teacher, I nearly fell off of my chair when I saw Max's coloring. That is the stuff that dreams are made of. Be still my heart.

Denise said...

I love this idea and really like how both yours and Jill's turned out. I really would love to do one myself, but alas, perhaps at another time in my life. . . .

Geography homework is so often coloring homework and it drives me a little crazy as time consuming but I don't value the educational benefit of it.
I wish I could read the title of your book!

Barb said...

Duh, you linked it in your list.

Amie said...

I am doing this too. EXCEPT I don't have Photoshop so I did it in Publisher. Ya... I like the look of yours much better but I didn't want to miss out. I am looking forward to flipping through all of them at the end of the year.
