Week 4
Here I've captured pictures that I probably wouldn't scrapbook about typically, however, they are important milestones in our everyday life... A scripture artwork that Annabelle created at church, a picture of the twins first school bus ride, and the bible study that I began that week. All important things, but not something I would typically scrapbook. Other bits & pieces: Hong Kong city streets at dusk and the taxi line... items that 20 years from now it will be so interesting to see and remember!

I love the saying on the orange card above: Part of cultivating a good life, is celebrating the little things. - Becky Higgins. SO TRUE! One of those "little things" is this beautiful doodle drawing by my daughter - age 7. I took a photo with my iPhone of her drawing and uploaded it to my computer so that I could include it in this week's memories - I love the doodled curls in the girl's hair and all of the flowers and stars - so sweet!
Next, for January, Week 5 - I tried to capture something about each person (including our Golden Retriever!) I realized that I had mostly focused on the children's activities in the first three weeks and I wanted to be sure to include the adults also!
Week 5
There may only be a few more years of 'snuggle' pictures - so I try to capture them every chance I get! She is a Daddy's girl through and through. In addition, I captured one page of the iPad apps that the kids are loving this week (yes, I do mean this week - since they will want to download something else new next week!!!) and Annabelle's song that she wrote. We have to record those things for when she is a superstar :)

Finally, as the gorgeous green card below says: Love these everyday moments! That's what I've gathered together for the second half of Week 5... swim lesson, monkey bars at school, Rosie and her best puppy friend, J&J on safari day at school, and John with his friend at football... all-in-all a wonderful week. Also, a few digital stamps were used to personalize these cards and two flags were created for a small journaling note.

I hope you take some time this week to capture the everyday things!
