grace aloud

I love to scrapbook—digitally.  But sometimes I have trouble deciding what to make pages about.  We don’t have kids yet, and our life together mostly consists of school—which can be pretty boring!  But I read a good idea to do an album called “Encyclopedia of an Ordinary Life.”  It’s based around pages that have subject matter for every letter of the alphabet, in order, like an encyclopedia.

I think this would be an interesting book to put together—how fun would it be to read something like this about your mom, or your grandmother?  Here is the list of things that I came up with last summer… Can you tell I sometimes have ideas for projects but no time to follow through??  I think all of them still apply though…
