Chad (who is the brother of a friend of ours, and whose blog I recently began following) created 12 of 12 three years ago. I love the tradition of taking and posting twelve photos of the twelfth day of the month, so I give you my first participatory post…
8:03 am ~ The Queen contemplates the day of work ahead of her. On the plate: continue working on the castle, preparing it for sale.
8:48 am ~ The King has finished cleaning the inside of the oven. Look what a little elbow grease can do! (The stove top took a great deal longer…and a great deal more elbow grease. Thank you, m’dear!)
11:51 am ~ Most of the Princes’ games have been packed away, not to be seen again until their arrival in the Kingdom of Seattle.
12:27 pm ~ The back of the Princes’ bedroom door, portraying notes that are left outside the door of the Pirate Cantina Restaurant when it is open for business.
1:13 pm ~ The offspring of Robert the Plant, generously separated into their own pots by The Queen Mother, await distribution throughout the castle.
1:13 pm ~ Contentment, anyway. The Queen believes a Jamocha shake should be included for true happiness to be achieved.
5:26 pm ~ The Queen, sporting her Christmas Tree Socks, chats with Queen Cindy while observing the Amazing Karate Talents of several Princes and Princesses.
7:50 pm ~ The King and Queen enjoy Warm Beverages while the King attempts WiFi Connectivity.
7:51 pm ~ The Princes enjoy Animated Conversation with their Warm Beverages.
7:52 pm ~ The Queen captures Wintry Artwork on film.
8:09 pm ~ The Royal Family enjoys Classic Holiday Television.
8:17 pm ~ The Queen searches for an Interesting Photograph to round out her first 12 of 12.

Oh shoot! I forgot to do this! Oh well. It would have been a really boring day.
Glad the house is coming along!

Congratulations on your first 12 of 12. Good luck on your upcoming move. You saved the best for last I think.

Very cool. Remind me to do this in January. The 12th the kids go back to school. Loved how you included Seattle in your post and included Starbucks for added effect 😉

That is so cool, Aimee! Is it something you do on the 12th of every month?

Congrats on your first 12 of 12. Warning: they are addictive.

Welcome.

Oh, nice job! Best wishes on your move to Seattle. Not sure where you’re coming from, but the Seattle area is a great place to live.
Thanks for stopping by my 12-of-12, too. Appreciated your comments.

Good luck with the move! And welcome to 12 of 12! Sheryl is right, they do get addictive, and your month will be incomplete without a 12 of 12 😉

Sorry for being late again this month – had a nightmare trip home after the weekend away ad this week has been messed up sleeping and busy. See you in 2009! Have a wonderful Christmas and New Year!
