Project Life - My Own Version

I've been thinking about joining the band wagon for a while now, but the cost of buying the Project Life System was a little over the top for me.
 About a year ago I started collecting different formats of 8 1/2 x 11 photo pages and during my Christmas shopping, I found an album that I really liked.
So I've joined the minions and have started my PLMOV (project life my own version).
I'd like to share with you what I have accomplished so far, it's only 2 weeks worth, but I've found that I love getting back into the "sport" that originally got me thinking more seriously about photography.

My opening page
 Our family photo from our end of the year family dinner.
All my boys and both my girls~

Week 1
Most of you know Dream Boy & I brought in the New Year from a hospital room.  Our very dear friend's helped us celebrate & smuggled up some sparkly beverages (left page).
I spent my spare time that week making slouch hats, starting a "selfie" shot journey and taking photos of Son #2 & his girl (right page).

Week 2
 I love participating in Scavenger Hunt Sunday over at Ashley Sisk's sight.  One of this week's prompts was "backside" (top left).  On Thursday I went to dinner with 2 dear friend's from school.  It was Towanda's birthday! (bottom left).
Self shot #2 (bottom right).
Sunday of that week my older sister was installed at church as a deacon, Monday I went back to school - so it was bagels for breakfast and packing my lunch.
Dream Boy & I finished off the week at our favorite little local Italian place - we each had a Stella (my beer of choice) and split a pizza & the most amazing piece of tiramisu!

Thanks for taking a peek and I'll be back next week with this week's journey!

Keep it up...this is fun. And I have no clue as to how to add tabs on a blog...something I have wanted to do for awhile.

What a lot you've accomplished. It will be so much fun for you to look back and realize what was happening when.
