a little Project Life love...

Thanks to Project Life, 2011 won't be quite the BLUR that living it has felt like!  Ugghh!  Seriously.  Having a senior in high school this past school year has been an emotional ROLLER COASTER!  Thanks for the memories Jeremy...we love you!

So back to Project Life...my last blog post was on FEB 1st my friends...my Project Life kit had just arrived.  Fast foward 5 months.  I'm still taking pictures...mostly everyday.  I'm still collecting bits & pieces from our everyday lives.  Is my album current?  That would be a negative.  Am I giving UP?  Not gonna happen!  January 2011 is completely documented in our album.  Our Febuary photos are chosen and being ordered this week & I started on the journaling this past weekend.  I'm full steam ahead.  I LOVE THIS PROJECT!

Here's a glance at what our January 2011 looked like:


I really like adding inserts into our album...here I have a page protector cut in half holding a total of 6 extra photos :)







 Next is a closeup of Jeremy's Facebook post after a disappointing loss in the league basketball tournament...


 More recently, this is what I just worked on over the weekend...February 2011.  I included an 8 1/2 x 11 insert on a child that we decided to sponsor...I wanted a way to add some journaling, so I chose to use a bi-fold journaling card.  I wrapped it around the papers so I could journal on both sides; I then stapled it once and then slid the papers into a page protector.  This also serves as a tab at the top of the page :)



Well, that is the quick update on our Project Life for 2011.  I've got a long ways to go...but have accepted that.  I love the process...documenting our everyday!

Thanks for stopping by!  Take care!
