Generally, my scrapbooks tend to be of specific events - birthdays, vacations, or holidays - but one of the changes I want to make is to spend more time documenting the every day things that happen. I want to document who we are and what is going on in our lives around these moments in time. To do this, I must follow through with two things. First, I must be committed to doing this and staying on top of it so I don't lose any important details that I may want to remember. Second, I have to bring my camera! The second is by and large the biggest reason I don't have pages devoted to the normal things in life.
One creative idea I wish to embark upon in 2011 is to do pages that make me stop during the year and focus on the "right now". Hopefully I will remeber to do this, but as of right now the plan is to devote a page to each family member in the beginning, middle, and end of the year to focus on what our thoughts are at that time. I have yet to come up with a template of questions as this idea is still sprouting but I'm getting excited about it. On that note, I thought it was high time that I put at least some of this idea into practice! So, since our pup just turned one year, I thought I would take the time to devote a page to him and what he is like RIGHT NOW. :)
Page elements are from Jessica Sprague kit "You & Me".
