i'm back, in time for back to school

Well. It's been a loooong time since I've posted. Life got so busy that I just couldn't keep up with everything. Lately I've often thought of things that I wanted to share but just never made the time to do so. But we start a new school year on Monday and I thought, what better time to resurrect the blog! A concept in scrapbooking that's been around for a few years now is a-picture-a-day. I know some call it P365. Another brand name is Project Life (by Becky Higgins). The idea is to take a picture every day that documents your life. It can be about what you did that day, about something in your home, life, etc. While I think the idea is cute, I never thought I'd be consistent enough to do it. Today I was thinking, well, why not try it on the blog? I want to do better at journal keeping and this could be a fun way to do it. I may not post a picture every day and I may not write a blog post every day but I'll sure try. I'm hoping to do better at documenting what my children are learning/doing in school as well as other activities (Christie is playing soccer, is in YW and is starting 8th grade; Jordan is playing soccer, in Scouts and is starting 6th grade; Alex is playing soccer and is in preschool. Nathan is being his adorable 1-year-old self and I want to document more of what he is doing. So, here's to new beginnings!
