project life 2012 : weeks 41 – 42

December 7, 2012

And I’m almost caught up! These weeks are from November 4-7. Next week I hope to share the rest of November and then I’ll be on track. It’s almost like two full spreads because I included a 12 x 12 insert. I really like this side. It’s neutral but graphic. I stuck in the ticket I got when I voted (they weren’t handing out stickers), a picture I adore of David and our nephew Lucas, a random one of Meredith at my mom’s, and the photo of my book of lists, because I launched the project that week. This was my favorite pocket, describing our weekend morning routine. The days of the week are cut out from a Paper Source…

project life 2012 : weeks 39 – 40

November 26, 2012

Be prepared because I might just be posting every day this week. Apparently I have a lot to say. Today’s Project Life episode comes from the weeks of October 21 to November 3. It’s not immediately apparent but I actually included an insert for Halloween. On the left we have a photo of our single fall decoration, a couple of Meredith’s “trial run” costumes, a celebration at the nursing home, and Lauren & I out and about. By the way I like the weekly quote cards, but they are totally random at this point and I don’t know if I’ll keep them up for next year. Here’s the insert I was talking about: I just wanted to get a few…

project life 2012 : week 38 (our kansas trip)

November 19, 2012

This is from October 14 – 20, which was entirely taken up by our road trip to Kansas. I think this week was the easiest to put together because I wanted it to be almost all photos. Since it wasn’t a sightseeing trip – we basically just hung out at our friends’ houses – I didn’t need to journal much. For the date card I used a photo of the typical Kansas landscape outside my friend Ellen’s front window. On this first page I included a few pics of the journey, Ellen & I + our girls, and one of Meredith in motion at a library story hour. The journaling card on this page sums up the whole trip. On…

project life 2012 : week 37

November 12, 2012

Still catching up on Project Life! For awhile now I’ve been combining two weeks into one spread, but since I knew I’d want an entire spread for our week’s trip to Kansas I went ahead and did a whole spread for the week before that too. And thus we have October 7 – 13. I love that I’m keeping it simple now because I finished this and another spread in a single naptime one Sunday. (Funny how I measure my life in Meredith’s naps now.) There wasn’t too much to journal in this week because it was just a normal one with some everyday photos. I had one pocket to fill so I turned to my list of good things…

project life 2012 : weeks 35 – 36

October 31, 2012

Happy Halloween! I procrastinated on finding Meredith’s costume this year, but when I stopped by Old Navy yesterday they had a fish costume in the perfect size on sale for $6 so my laziness has been rewarded. We are going trick-or-treating with my nephews this evening so pictures are to come. In the meantime, I’m getting closer to caught up on sharing my Project Life spreads with you! Here we have September 23 to October 6. Think back with me. Another simple layout – I am finally getting into my groove. I just need to remember to take more pictures! One of my best friends, Megan, came to visit briefly and the picture I placed right next to the date…
