It was fun to see our photographers around the globe in the holiday spirit. This is indeed my favorite time of year. Usually, my home is decked out in Christmas Spirit both inside and out, but this year is still stuck in the protective plastics and endless boxes associated with an amazing Main Floor remodel. We're getting closer...and I'm hoping to have my hidden stashes of unwrapped gifts packaged and under the tree by next week. Finger's crossed.<br /><br />Now on to our top ten, as always, in no particular Order. The artist & artist links are listed directly below the photograph. If you enjoy their work, leave them a comment, join them on facebook - send them some Love. Photography can be a challenge, and your words could be just pat on the back that photographer needs to keep learning and growing. So go ahead, pat away. It feels good.<br />Ready. Set. Here we go...</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" >ONE (Love the bokeh & the santa.

Only 2 months, it seems like a small lifetime} But...In our short 2 months, we have removed the tile flooring in the kitchen, ordered & received new appliances & furniture (all still in happy giant boxes), installed new garage doors, removed & replaced the flooring in our bedroom with hardwood, repainted the Master Bedroom, removed an entire fireplace and...now it's time for the living room.<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellenburgphotography/6185721718/" title="Untitled by Ellenburg Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6155/6185721718_b30e65f6ce.jpg" alt="" height="500" width="500" /></a><br />This weekend there was mild demolition and painting - nearly endless painting...Living room walls & the ceiling twice {Yuck! Because I always manage to get paint in my hair when I do the ceilings. Now when I look in the mirror, I think, "Is that a gray hair, or is that ceiling paint?"} We also removed the carpet & about a million staples and tacks to start the Hardwood floors. But before all that excitement could start, Mike had to lay the groundwork for his seemingly Wireless entertainment system.<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellenburgphotography/6185191435/" title="Untitled by Ellenburg Photography, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6174/6185191435_8df873ac92.jpg" alt="" height="500" width="500" /></a><br />It's actually quite impressive.

It's still too hot and too green to really be fall. But I am always hopeful. I love to celebrate that glorious first day of Fall with a morning walk and plot out the great things I'm looking forward to photographing. I took Madison with me, 2 hats and my favorite camera. It was too warm for a sweater {but I wore one anyway}, but perfect for slowing down and holding hands.
