On the Twelfth Day of Christmas...

... My true love gave to me 12 drummers drumming, 11 pipers piping, 10 lords a-leaping, 9 ladies dancing, 8 maids a-milking, 7 swans a-swimming, 6 geese a-laying, 5 golden rings, 4 colly birds, 3 French hens, 2 turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree!!!!!

Merry Christmas everyone!

Some of you may think today is the twelfth day of Christmas, but actually it is the FIRST! Somewhere along the way we all thought the last day of Christmas should be Christmas itself, but originally it was the first day, with January 6th being the final day of Christmas, and twelfth night! So if you wanted to celebrate the twelve days, but thought you were too late to the game, well good news, you can start today! As for me, I'm signing off on this topic, of which I only skimmed the surface. I hope you all learned a little something along with me. Merry Christmas y'all

Xoxo,
Kjersti
