Here is week two of Project Life.  These are very picture intensive and there is not much journaling.  I am starting to get a hang of this and adding a little creativity to my pages.

I had this post all ready to go last night and when I logged in this morning it was gone.  I have no idea what happened.  Any who, here is my first week of Project Life.   As I was putting my pages together this weekend I noticed that the majority of my pictures are of K.  There's really nothing wrong with that, but I went into this project with the thought that this would document our entire family's life not just K's life.  So in the upcoming weeks I am going to be working on taking a more variety of pictures.

We had quite a busy Christmas holiday. We started on Christmas Eve day by going to my parents house for Kalie to open dare I say too many presents.  That kid is spoiled!  She was a little hesitant at first, but once she got the hang of it the game was on!  Ripping into that wrapping paper like it was nothing.  She's a smart little one if I do say so myself.  We stopped half way through to have a little lunch, but she was back at it before everyone was even done eating.

As 2011 comes to an end, it is time to reflect on this past year and look forward to the next. I realize that this blog sits idle way to much and I am going to try to rectify that.  I am going to be doing Project Life this year.  If you have never heard of Project Life you can watch Becky Higgin's video explaining it out here.


Ali Edwards also has some great inspiration here.  I will be doing digital layouts and having them printed as 12 x 12 pages.  That way I can add them to a scrapbook and also add memorabilia and other size pages to my book.  Hopefully, if all goes as planned, I will be sharing my weekly pages every Monday.  Below are my two title pages.  The first is a 6 x 12 that will overlay over the 12 x 12 below.  When they are layed out properly you will be able to see the small page and the right side of the larg page.  Then flip open the small page and you will see the entire large page.

This is a very large undertaking but I am so excited about it.  I am asking you to please give me a little push (or shove) if you don't see me posting my pages weekly.  I may need it.  I can see myself doing this for years to come, documenting our everyday life.  The great thing about doing this digitally is that I will easily be able to make a photo book out of these for K so that she has them when she is grown.

I am working on a Christmas recap post that should show up sometime this week.

Yesterday I turned 29.  


So, in the spirit of my birthday and the new year I have tried to take a step back and look at my life.  At the beginning of every year, Ali Edwards picks one word, one little word to sum up her life for the coming year.  I have been trying to come up with a word for a couple of weeks now and one word just kept popping up in my mind.



There are so many things that I want to do in my life, so many things to do with Kalie, with my family.  

Here are my edits for I Heart Face's Fix-It Friday.
