I know that December can be a busy, busy month but it can also be one of the best months of the year! Every year I try my hardest to slow down and enjoy December but before I know it it’s the new year. This year, I thought it would be fun to host a December Photo of the Day Challenge. Every day throughout the month of December I will take a picture with Instagram {feel free to follow me there too!} and I’ll share my picture here on my blog. I was going to have a linky attached to each day’s post but I that became confusing so I’ve added a linky to this post so that you can link up your photo of the day that you’ve published on your blog. My goal is for this to be a reminder to myself, and everyone, to slow down and enjoy each day we’re given. Sure, the lights will inevitably get tangled but what a beautiful picture it would make! : )
If you feel up to sharing your photos with me but don’t have a blog, feel free to use the hashtag #EmbracingDecember on Twitter or Instagram! I’d love to see what creative pictures you come up with!
Doesn’t that sound like fun? We can get a peak into everyone’s life, support each other’s blogs, and most importantly take time to enjoy our family and remember the real reason for the Christmas season. I hope you’ll join me!! Come and link up below!

Wonderful, I’m so glad to have you!!
Would you mind if I used the picture above in my daily posts?
No, I don’t mind at all! 🙂
I’m doing this … I used your graphic but linked back to you. OK? http://carolfoltz.blogspot.com/2012/12/december-photo-day-challenge.html
That’s completely fine! Don’t forget to link up your first day’s post here: http://embracingbeauty.com/2012/12/01/december-photo-a-day-2012-day-1/ Thanks for joining!!
I would have to be much more organized than I am to be able to participate in this!
Aww ok. Maybe we’ll do another one next year. 🙂
What a fun challenge! I doubt I’ll remember to take a pic each day but maybe I’ll manage a few off the list, LOL!
No problem! You can participate as little or as much as you want. This is just for fun!
Aww, Ashley! That photo is adorable. I am a little (ok, a lot) behind on my holiday decorating. What a fun photo challenge. I doubt I’ll remember that photo a day but hopefully I can get a few in!
Yea, feel free to participate as little or as much as you want. This is meant to be fun and not another thing you have to check off your to-do list. 🙂
I love photo a day challenges! I’ll try to play along when I can!!
Oh great! I’m glad to have you participate! This is the first one I’ve done but I’m pretty excited about it. 🙂

What a great challenge! I want to do one of these too!
I’d love to have you join this one if you’re up to it!
This would be super fun, But ughhh..I have so much going on.
I understand completely, no pressure!
Now that I’ve got my new camera, I should be doing this–hopefully I can link up at least some of the time!
Ooh, new cameras are so much fun! Yes, I hope you’ll link up when you can!
I love these challenges. I TRIED to do it back in January but failed so bad at keeping up with it. Maybe in 2013 I can try again
I’ve always been intimidated by them too so I understand. 🙂
What a fun challenge!
Thank you! I hope you’ll join in!
I just realized I am doing a different one…maybe last year’s? I was wondering why somes days mine were different than others on Instagram! LOL Will start doing this one as of tomorrow!
Oh, I’m so sorry! We had a bit of a mix up in the beginning but we’ll be going by this one for this year. Sorry!!
No worries..it’s all in fun and embracing December 🙂
Yes, exactly!! 🙂
