If God is in the details...

...then He is most definitely not in my scrapbook! (But if he's in me, he'd better like enchiladas... I seriously had them for lunch today). I was working, working, working on Kari's wedding scrapbook and neglecting my own, and now it's caught up with me. She got married last summer, which means I worked on her book for nearly a year, which means I neglected my own book for nearly a year, and Patrick is barely over one year anyway - I am seriously behind! So I got back in gear and printed off a whopping 210 photos from birth to 16 months, PLUS I sorted through other old photos needing a home (our extra wedding photos, Joe's sister's wedding, Kari's extra wedding photos that I stole [thanks, Kari!], the wedding of the girl next door that I barely even know, etc etc) and new photos of old things (like Joe's dad as a child) from my MIL Debbi (thanks, Debbie!), meaning I have roughly 400 photos to scrapbook before the next baby gets here in 5 months. I will be a BUSY BEE, shall we say! Now there will be a serious lack in off-the-charts creative detail, but I DO plan on getting all those photos down and scrapbooked so I'll have a clean slate in November. I can only imagine that with a new baby right before the holidays plus another sweet neice on the way, I'll be bombarded with a whole new pile of photos! I would just ditch the scrapbook and slide them into a pre-made album, but I realised that scrapbooking is one of my great loves and my biggest creative outlet at the moment (and a perfect outlet with kids to scrapbook), so it wouldn't make sense to give up. Next time I'll just try to keep it to 100 or fewer pictures at a time!
