As I write this blog post I just said goodbye to Conor who is heading back to Gainesville. Yesterday I took Pierce to the airport at the crack of dawn to head back to Chicago. You might think this gets easier rather it seemed even harder. Yep, I broke into ugly cries. We had three great weeks together - we celebrated two birthday's (Christmas Even and New Year's Day) as well as Christmas and New Year's.
I really wanted to be fully present while they were home. As a result, I did not capture as many photos as I would have liked. I did capture important pieces and have been working on my Project Life - Hello December album.
I love this smaller album (6 x 8) and the Variety Pack Photo Pocket Pages provided a nice assortment of layouts. If you have not tried Project Life it is the perfect time to start. The concept is to document not just those special occasions rather all the everyday moments that create our lives. I love that concept.
While I am still working on journaling and adding embellishments to the pages I wanted to give you a bit of inspiration to get YOUR Project Life album going.
I began my album with Thanksgiving - isn't that when the holiday season begins? I will add photos from our holiday parties as well.
Below I captured Conor's 21st birthday. It was a fun evening.
Now for a few Christmas morning pages...
The process of capturing these memories reminds me of my many blessings. While we each go back to our individual lives I have these memories to look back on again and again.
January is the perfect time to begin using Project Life by StampinUp (PLxSU) to capture the everyday. I am pledging to make more of an effort to capture the everyday in 2015. Won't you join me?
