Well I must admit I'm not feeling very Christmasy right now. Don't know why although it could be my mom won't give me a rock for Christmas  . I've been thinking that a Christmas carol just might get me into the Christmas mood but not just any Christmas carol. I know there is at least one version of the rockhound 12 days of Christmas here link but it just didn't get me in the spirit so I thought I'd ake my own. But then I thought heck why do all the work when there's a whole forum of creative and crazy rockhounds who could help with this project. So I am asking for help to make an RTH version of the classic Christmas song The 12 days of Christmas. I'll start at day one and the next person will do day two and so on and so forth. At the end I'll post the song in it's entirety. Anyone up for the challenge to spread a little Christmas cheer? On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me
A rock underneath the Christmas tree. Who's next? |

. I've been thinking that a Christmas carol just might get me into the Christmas mood but not just any Christmas carol. I know there is at least one version of the rockhound 12 days of Christmas here link but it just didn't get me in the spirit so I thought I'd ake my own. But then I thought heck why do all the work when there's a whole forum of creative and crazy rockhounds who could help with this project. So I am asking for help to make an RTH version of the classic Christmas song The 12 days of Christmas. I'll start at day one and the next person will do day two and so on and so forth. At the end I'll post the song in it's entirety. Anyone up for the challenge to spread a little Christmas cheer?
