WOW! You are doing awsome on this project!

Julie said...

I love this. What a great idea!

This project is AWESOME. I especially love the photo collage pages. A day condensed. I'm glad you included your red shoes. I'm finding that a pair of shoes you like make a difference. I love my slippers with bows on the toes. I think I'll do something similar for my scrapbook. Cup of coffee, baby in exersaucer, painting the bathroom. You always have great ideas.

Your doing a great job so far. I love the way your doing your album. What kind of album is it? I love the pictures your taking.

Nathalie said...

I just came over from Ali's blog and I am LOVING your album!!! Love the full size photos in there, the way you're journaling with your handwriting... it looks so cool! I am going to check further on your blog if you already mentioned the "making" of your album but if you haven't yet, please do share!

I love the way you write about your boys and your life, I feel like I almost know you!
Hope Dave is soon 100% again.

Dave said...

WOw!

Thanks everybody!

I am using thick cardboard pages left over from an old album I made a while ago.

For each day I am trying to get:
*a shot for each person in our family and a description of their day or of that photo
*a collage of objects/places/people
*some full page photos
*assorted paperwork from that day: school papers, mail, prescriptions ;)

Heather said...

Cat said...

I love this project. It's too bad Dave doesn't appear in any of the pictures...
I love the way you use your own handwritting. It will make a great souvenir for the boys!

Please post the album cover when you are finished! :)

Love your work.

Dave said...

Cat, he'll be in there! Don't you worry. Today was the first day this week that taking his photo was an option. I thought the sick-in-bed shot would have just been mean! ;)

Dave said...

"I made it in!!!!!!!!!! "

ok...I can't figure it out. You got me. How did you make it in? I don't see it.

TARA said...

You make the kind of stuff I love. Love it, love it.

sally calligan said...

This is a great example. I have wanted to do my own, but I want to make it simple. Your way is terrific. I am loving doing this project myself.

Your project looks fantastic! I love the mix of photo sizes you are using - the combo of the collage and the full size pictures looks amazing. I also love the journaling, and how you are doing a section for each person - such a great idea!

"ok...I can't figure it out. You got me. How did you make it in? I don't see it."

Well, that just completely ruined my sense of distinction. Dang it!

Read the writing on the page.

A hint: It begins with an M.

Take care, Anja

Dave said...
