365 Project (so far...)

Back in 2009, I did my own 365 project because I had read about people doing it online and I wanted to see if I could actually take one picture every day (for an entire year) - well, I did 364 days of the year (only missed one day completely!) and it was a blast...everyone enjoyed seeing it documented in the album and especially when the year was over - I love going back through and looking at all the photos!

I took a year off in 2010 and I'm back full-force in 2011! I decided to purchase a Project Life Kit that Becky Higgins created so that I would have no excuse not to journal since it came with all the journaling cards! I purchased the red one (back in November/early December) and in mid-December she launched a turquoise and amber option (I'll save the turquoise for next year!) - I love the red because I've seen other bloggers do it so much and I do love red - I think it looks really good! Here is a picture of the album itself:


This is the first page - it's fun to start a new project like this - wonder what it will look like when it's all done!


Here are just the first few pages of the album - it's fun to journal every day (and I try not to get behind on journaling because it is hard to catch up!):





I try to print pictures every couple of weeks because it's easier to keep up with - but sometimes I just journal along with the day and wait for a coupon code from walgreens that is worth it!
I like documenting our lives like this - it's really fun to look back even on the last few weeks like "wow, those have been fun memories!" Now if I only I could get up some energy and scrapbook my NYC trip with Corey - that is the next project!!
