Thanks for the comments on my scrapbooking last week.
Neet certainly hit the nail on the head as my scrapbooking is indeed a diary of day to day events in our lives. Just a little bit more that just putting photos in albums, which is what I have done since I was about 17yrs. I have 18 pre-scrapbooking era albums and I'm on my 18th scrapbook.
Cindy then laid down the gauntlet saying I should get to mid-Summer by Christmas. As I have photos printed to the end of July this is indeed a possibility. I've nearly got May 2023 in the bag...(last pages on desk)
The Bluebell Trail was at the end of April 2023, revisiting the woods we found on my birthday back in February.
May started with a First To Find (FTF) cache in my local Asda, right where I usually park too! My son and his mates in London and the King's Coronation.
Followed by more caching and my husband visiting his sister "up north"
The FABULOUS page scraps from the banners lead to a Christmas tree card and I made a 2nd whilst I was at it (Son and Husband sorted). I also made my son's Birthday card, using watercolour.
Definitely having a turquoise moment.
I did weeks 47 & 48 for my #scripture52 challenge - just 4 weeks to go now to finish the year.
Week 4 of the Bible Journaling series on Being Prepared.
1 Peter 1:13
Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming.
(expecting a bonus page today or tomorrow)
Advent starts on Sunday 3rd December so we'll be getting the tree on Saturday. Last year was the earliest Advent start (27th Nov and this year the latest).
I don't seem to have all the busyness everyone talks about, just having son home this year but everything else is as usual really.
Happy WOYWW Everyone.

Looks as if you will answer Cindy's challenge! Fab LOs. I have fond memories of a trip to Stockport years ago...do you not travel with your hubby on these visits or was that you behind the camera? I've had 200 photos delivered this week, the year to date and in total contrast to your method, just rake through them and do whatever pics speak to me at the time, so disordered by comparison!
It is truly lovely how you document your life - so many happy memories to look back on! I'm nowhere near disciplined enough to do this, but I'm planning on starting a diary/planner sort of thing, I'm just not sure how! Your other creative endeavours are all inspiring too - I can really see the appeal in bible journalling. Have a lovely week! xx zsuzsa #7
How fun of you to take it as a challenge :D But hey, I am all for getting motivated to scrapbook. One day I might find that motivation again too. We hoped to get the tree started on Saturday but the day is looking pretty full with out-of-the-house things and in-house visitors so I just don't know. Like you, I am pretty happy to have Dear Son home (-ish, at least in the UK if not in residence!) but it is crazy busy round here.
On the day so YAY!
