Project Life, Weeks 10 & 11

Hi y'all!

Here are my weeks 10 & 11 of Project Life.
Left Side: This week saw a visit with my old Primary School Best Friend, Kerry; Mum and Dad came to Playgroup & I included a photo of the crayon drawing Jai did inside of Papa's Birthday Card. It was so cute, cos he drew it then he immediately said "Neigh!!" when he looked at it, cos he thought it looked like a horse. His first identifiable drawing! Now that's something exciting to include in PL!

 Right Side: A visit to our fave park- Blaxland Riverside Park at Homebush; Granny and Papa dropped in again; we played Basketball with our work friends, Jaimeson was properly decked out in his Jeremy Lin jersey (the most famous Asian Basketball player in America). He looked so cute!




Week 10 of 2013 was also the week we found out we are having another baby! I made this cute little insert page for the album, by cutting down a 12x12 pocket page protector (the same shape as the left side of Week 10's main pages). I included 2 pics we took while taking the test, then on the back side I wrote a little about how I was feeling at the time.
It's so important for me, that I keep real-life stuff in my album, I don't sugar coat it or write fluff that isn't how I was actually feeling at the time. I don't care what other people think about it, or if they are judging what I write, I wrote it so that I will remember exactly how I felt at the time! I'm keeping it real!

 Week 11: LHS- this week was Jaimeson's Baptism! So to include lots more pics I made a 6x6 inch collage of pics for the big pocket. I usually decide what pocket to use the week before, so for the following week I'm stuck with whatever layout/design page protector I have chosen for the previous week (in this case, I chose a 4 pocket 6x6 page protector for the RHS of Week 10, cos I knew I would have lots of pics to include from the Baptism, and lots to write about!) It takes a bit of juggling to get it right, and not end up with unusable pockets the following week, but I do still like using all the different shaped pockets, and I will probably keep it up for as long as I'm doing PL! I think it makes it a bit more interesting!

I also included Jai's Baptism invite in one of the pockets, which I was so happy to do! Otherwise all the invites just get lost in a drawer somewhere!
So you can see there are lots more Baptism pics on this page too. Plenty to include!

How is your PL going?  I'm going to BigW to get more pics printed today, then I will be TOTALLY up to date! Such a good feeling!!
Happy Weekend!
