April, may and june



Now that I have gotten my photos (well most of them, forgot some on another memorycard...) I have worked on my Document:2012. Here´s the pages for april, may and june!

Elias turned 8 (and got a replica of King Arthur´s sword, which he liked A LOT, of course...) He was also baptised. Our children is baptised when they turn 8 years old.

May´s big event was having Sarah and her family here, as can be seen in the photos. I´m not sure I actually have any photos from may other than of their visit here! But we also celebrated 30 years as married.

A new grandson is of cause most important in june. But it also meant school´s out and swimming lessons for Elias.

I like this concept. It´s a doable Project Life for me. I might extend it to a two page spread for each month eventualy. I keep the month cards quite alike and I use the same cards for journaling. They are office supplies really, but they suit almost perfectly, I just have to cut them down a little bit. Washi tape and paperstripes is great for dressing them up, and then just a few something else.

Sometimes I like the backside of the paper used for the month pocket so much that I don´t want to cover it up, so I put something small in the backside pocket. Like on the april layout, to the left of the month pocket I just put a small journaling card. And the backside of the june month paper will be the same.

On thursday it´s november which means that I will start my Learn Something New Every Day-album!! Great fun! I have prepared all the pages so I will, at least most days, only do the writing. I´ll show them all to you here.

I have also prepared a Christmas album and have a box where I have put a lot of things together that I will use in it. I´m not done with that yet, there is for example no washi tape there yet... I´m thinking of how to decorate the front cover of the album and have an idee that I´m quite sure will come to life.

Have a great week folks!

Kindness


My father-in-law is a wonderful man. Do you know what he is doing for us? New stairs from the driveway up to the house. He's been working hours and hours. We didn't ask him, he just saw that we needed them.

Isn't it amazing to have such people around you? I'm so happy he's in our
family.
