Project Life ~ Week 3

And here I am again today posting another week of my Project Life. I told you, I am determined to get my postings caught up!

To say I am loving this project would be an understatement. I can't believe how much it has transformed my memory keeping. I still love looking through my binder and previous weeks and seeing little things that I had already forgotten about. That's what its all about.

Moving on, here is my week 3 spread. 

This was a fun week! I actually have two inserts for this week. I had so many pictures that I wanted to use so I just added more inserts! Hey, this is my life that I want to capture. When I was fussing about having to use another insert my daughter replied, "Mom, why does it matter? It just shows you have a great, full life!" Wow! That's it! Why worry about how many inserts? If I've got things I want to remember, I don't want to have to look back on my computer to find them....include them! I am quickly realizing I may have three or four volumes of Project Life for one year, and you know what, I'm perfectly ok with that. I am getting the memories down and saving the pics to enjoy for years to come!

This is the left side for this week. It included pics of my niece, Madi, pics of hubby, text messages and our favorite tv show. I love keeping these things down because I know in just a few years this will all be obsolete and will change drastically. How fun to look back on that!

This is the right side spread.  Includes stories of scrap night, times with hubby, favorite everyday items and food.  The chevron bag with the picture of the banana bread, has my favorite recipe inside on the shipping tag! Won't have to worry about every losing that. (And if hubby sees I posted a pic of him getting a hair cut...man, will I be in trouble! LOL)

Here's the first insert. A night out with our kids! We love spending time with them and are so thankful they like to be with us! We have a blast together!

The back of the insert. Very simple.

SECOND INSERT: Used a baseball card page protector. Perfect size for adding many photos and filler cards. I love to use this size and use the center pocket for my title of the insert. I did this on a later week as well which you'll see coming up...

I also used these cute little packets from the Brighton store that we received when we went there. One is holding the receipt of our purchase. I just hole punched these and popped them in the page. If I had it to do over, I probably would not have hole punched them and just popped them in a page protector. But hey, it's done! Sometimes you just gotta be ok with it and get it done, right?

And here's the back of the second insert. Such a fun shopping day with my sister in law and my daughter Ashley, and of course, Miss Madi! Love that I'm getting these little things captured!

And here's the full open spread with the inserts. Isn't that just lovely? I love opening the binder and seeing all the great things that make up life in a week!

Thanks again for popping in! I'll be back with week 4 quickly!
