About Sweet September Holiday Special

So because of the boom from August Alphabet Set, Brad and I decided to continue on with Monthly Themes. After days of brainstorming between the two of us Brad found this awesome site, this site has a whole bunch of wacky and special holidays in September.

The name of the game is...each day is a different holiday, (listed below) you can participate in that days holidays by picking one or several. If none of them catch your fancy there are "week" holidays in September, (listed below) you can also do one of them for a photo, and if NONE of them (Day holidays or Week Holidays) September is notorious for their Monthly Observances. So they too will be listed and if you don't like the daily holiday, or the weekly holiday, hop on the month train and see what you like there. Or if you don't like any of them...participate when you want and have fun with it like the alphabet.

I counted about 159 different "holidays or observances" so thats a lot of ideas for 30 days of September. Some days are silly but then there are some days that are well deserving of a photo, take a look at them and pay tribute or celebrate... Salami Day.
