Project Life 2013: Weeks 42 & 43, October 14th - October 27th

It's the end of October, and three years in, I am still LOVING this project. I love that Project Life allows me the freedom to just slip photos in and tell the stories. I love that I can make it fancy, or keep it fairly simply, and that I finally have a spot for memorabilia. Thank you Becky Higgins for designing Project Life.

Now that I am all caught-up for 2013, it is just so much fun. No more hours and hours editing and selecting photos, I am now down to one hour a week tops for all of that. This includes photos I edit and print out for layouts as well. It usually takes me about an hour to put together each of my spreads, but this week it took two hours for each spread (I put it together with friends and there was lots of talking involved, so no complaints from me.)

Week 42: Fairly ordinary week around here, I finally got a picture of one of the doe's that likes to hang out in our backyard. I love that this has become a regular occurrence this fall. Lots of photos around town, an Instagram photo I fell in love with, pics of Isabelle's school, and part of a bag from World Market. Aren't their bags just the cutest?

Week 43: A little bit of a different spread for me, only one picture is of a family member, and yes the teenager actually cooperated for a photo. The rest of the photos this week are birds, other nature scenes, and food. I love that Project Life allows me such awesome flexibility like this. Saturday was a dream day for me, full of lots of bird pictures and I was so excited that they cooperated for their impromptu photo shoot.
