January 2nd

Tonight is the big family bonfire at my aunt's house.  We're looking forward to it. Good food, great fun with family, watching the Liberty Bowl.  I'll take photos while I'm there.  Today is my "FOUR. FIVE. SIX." photo day.  It's the last day my girls are 4, 5, and 6 - E turns SEVEN tomorrow!  Seven!?!  It's too much to think about how quickly that time has passed. 

I'm going to try Project 365 again this year.  Last year was a dismal failure.  I did great until I got the *one* thing I'd really hoped to capture - Harrison's first steps -- and that was in FEBRUARY!  It was downhill from there. 

So, taking a cue from my friend Traci Reed - I'm going to do a theme for each day. 

Sunday - Family Free-for-all
Monday -Elizabeth
Tuesday - Katherine
Wednesday -Me
Thursday - Annie
Friday  Harrison
Saturday - Brad

I'm going to do Sunday - Saturday weeks - so I'm actually going to start my P365 for 2010 tomorrow - January 3.  Of course, my "schedule" is just a loose outline and I won't get OCD about it.  I'm also thinking about ordering Becky Higgins' Project Life kit.  If I do it digitally, the pages and photos will never see the light of day, I'm afraid.  I once heard Stacy Julian say, "Mommas, don't let your babies grow up to be pixels.  In other words, print your photos!"
