I also have been keeping a box of embellishments to the side that are to be used for Project Life and that way if I have them all in one place it makes it easier and faster when I am documenting a week.
Week 33 was full of :
-Trips to the mall for fun and lunch treat for my two youngest before starting school
-Entering Sassy in a Photo contest
-Finding out my favorite cupcake company is opening very close to me!
-Weekly stop at the library
-Cute nephews
-Seeing my SIL & her Fiance before their big day!
-Getting a beauty treat for myself
-Celebrating my BIL's 30th birthday
-High School orientations invitation
I made sure to include notes behind the pictures (using tags) also if I needed to write anything extra I labeled the back and used the labels to document about what was going in the image. I find it a good way to include more information when needed.
Week 34 was full of :
-Last trip to the library before school starts
-Celebrating all the reading we did throughout the Summer w/ Ice cream treat
-Cravings for Belgian Waffles fulfilled
-Back to school laundry
-Trips to the Merry Go Round
-Coney Island
- Organizing school supplies
-Sleepy Teenager
-Mama & Sassy pictures
-Gardening
-Saying goodbye to Neil Armstrong
I like to make sure I include newspaper clippings when something happens as I did with the passing of Neil Armstrong so the children will see it when they are older as right now they might not appreciate the meaning. Also this week I got pictures from my oldest perspective as he took pictures on a trip to Coney Island. Make sure to pass on the camera so that you can have other views from other family members as well.
Now speaking of cameras how about a little something for your camera? I have an extra Camera Wristlet Strap to giveaway. Please be advised I will only be able to ship only in the U.S. and Canada
Just make sure you enter using the Rafflecopter to win as it chooses the winner :

I asked this on my photography blog but I'll ask it here as well have you let your children take range of the camera especially if you are doing Project Life have you included them in the process?

Tried giving the camera to the kids ... my son couldn't be bothered, and my daughter forgot, so ended up taking 5 minutes worth of the same pictures on two 36 exp. disposable cameras!
heading to park city for the running with the balls it should be fun!

My son constantly wants to use my camera, so ended up teaching how to use the point and shoot, then finally got him his own. I don't let him use my DSLR yet. Maybe when he's a little older.
No, I have to work-boo! And my dd starts school on Tuesday, so it'll be a fun but quiet weekend to end summer!
Just working on house projects.
Having friends over to BBQ and swimming in the pool.
My husband is having a birthday next week, so we will be celebrating this weekend :)

We're just staying home and enjoying some extra time together since my husband is off on monday

Once, when my almost 25 year old was about 2-2 1/2, he got a hold of my camera and , since he knew he wasn't supposed to touch it, he hid behind the livingroom curtains to 'play' with it. I found the evidence when I got the pictures developed! Pictures of his toes and an ear and his nose and of course his fingers! So cute.
When he was about 10 and I was starting to get into scrapbooking, I handed him those pictures (He'd never seen them!) and paper and sticky tabbies (the square adhesive tabs) and had him make that layout. It is a layout I treasure.

We just took it easy this weekend.
Going to the home and garden show
yoga in NYC
My boyfriend's sister has a birthday this weekend, so we'll be celebrating with her on Saturday, right after we stop by our local volunteer fire department to have my son's portraits made. (My grandparents donated to them, and they were nice enough to pass along the free portrait session to me for him.)
I'm a budding photographer. I have a strap but nothing this cute! Maybe I will get lucky!
I'm hoping to just veg out on the couch and gorge my pregnant self on pizza :)
Last weekend was so busy...I'm just glad to have next to nothing on the agenda!
Plan for the weekend:
Watching lots of football! My son plays in his 1st pee wee football game so we are super excited to see him play... and then Sunday is NFL!
Plus eat lots of great food with the family!
Relaxing with the family¡¡ maby a few games or fishing
We do! We are baking cookies on Saturday and then Sunday after church we are delivering them to police and fire stations near us!
