As I look back over the past week, I am always amazed at what we accomplish in any given day. The funny thing is, I am always wanting to do just a little bit more!
Mother's Day started Week Twenty! What a great day we had. Running, regular chores like laundry and sheet changing, outside work like weeding, and then getting ready for the work week. In the midst of that we had Jason join us for dinner! What a great time we had hanging out in the kitchen.
The meal was terrific and the company, even better!
Monday started Teacher Appreciation Week here where I live. On Monday I received homemade cookies from my students. Delicious! I love the little tag that tied the bag together. We ran errands on Monday evening, so not like me. I like Monday nights to be calm stay at home nights so that I can recuperate from the day!
Not many photos were taken this week. I am really not sure why it happened that way, but some weeks just go like that! In retrospect that was probably a good thing since my photo printer has been giving me such trouble lately.Wednesday I completely forgot about my nieces' dance recital. I napped instead. What was I thinking?
Thursday I spent the evening at school chaperoning the band, orchestra and chorus students between performances. I think the hall looked great with all the instrument cases lining the walls. Finally, Friday. We were so punchy Friday evening. We were sitting out on the adirondack chairs with a bottle of wine that we finished. Giggly and silly we were! I love the photo.
Saturday brought the Walk for Autism Speaks, a bit of shopping, a meeting for Mark in Princeton and finally a trip to the Home Depot and ShopRite. I included my invitation to the summer style event from Loft. I also need to include the book that my students made for me and the program from the Spring Concert at school. So many great uses of Project Life! Ali Edwards used mostly photos this week. You can check out here post here! She always does everything with such flair, and it seems so effortless for her. I am hoping scraplift a few of her ideas and use some of my great journaling strips and bling as my schedule eases up and time allows. Perhaps a bit of organization will help also!
As usual, I am going to share my link over at The Mom Creative where Jessica has a couple of techniques for creating labels for journaling.
As always, if you are the least bit interested in Project Life, I urge you to check out Becky Higgins' site. I just love recording our family happenings this way. Takes the stress out of the process and allows me to go with the flow. Just love it!
