Project Life | June 2013

          Welcome back - I'd like to share my Digital Project Life for the month of June with you today!  Take a look at all the beautiful cards that I was able to use and the multitude of pictures that I've included for our family memories... 
           The first week of June was a busy one (Figure 1):  we had a school field trip to see the floating Rubber Duck display in Tsim Sha Tsui at Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong.  It's a 4 story rubber duck!  What a fun experience for the kids.  In addition, the girls had their gymnastics competition.  So much fun to capture them with their friends and 'in action' during the competition.  Congratulations to Annabelle for earning a Gold Medal in the floor competition and a Silver All-Around Medal.  What an amazing experience. 
          I loved using the Persnickety Prints Chalk Cards camera typography in combination with Becky Higgins gorgeous Honey PL cards.  We had a wonderful week and our cool underwater photos show how much we love our pool time!!!

          The second week of June was all about Vacation Bible School (VBS) - we finished preparing our props and worked on our photos to send with our books for the children in India.  The Persnickety Prints Chalk Cards came in handy again - this time paired with one of my favorite fonts: sidewalk chalk.  Some of the super ideas for photos this week:  a picture of Annabelle cuddling her baby doll, her Mandarin class in session - using playdough to write Chinese characters, and typical breakfast...  some of our everyday magic (Figure 2).

          The third week of June (Figure 3), our VBS Sundays continued - and I captured some fun photos of the relationships between the kids and their crew leaders.  I continued to use the beautiful Becky Higgins Honey PL cards - I love the primary colors.  This week we were all over the place:  VBS at church, grilling out with Dad, daytrip into Central HK, football awards, Aqua Luna junk boat trip, and squid fishing!  Amazing week in the life...

          Our final week of June, we said a lot of good-byes...  the twins graduated from Sunshine House Kindergarten and we packed up to travel to the USA for 6 weeks...  During this process, I was able to capture some awesome contrasts between the modern DB ferry boat and the antique Bounty ship - amazing (Figure 4)!  A wonderful, busy month for our family.  I love that PL is capturing some of the details that might be lost otherwise.

           Hope these photos and collections help you as you capture your memories.
