So I'm really proud of myself - I managed to make it through my 2011 scrapbook by the end of 2011! This NEVER happens!! I did two layouts per month, using free monthly templates I found - I already ordered it and got it in the mail yesterday and am SO happy with how it turned out!! Soooo... check it out!
I had a great first week back to school, am SO looking forward to visiting Andrea in OKC next weekend, we have several "game nights" with friends coming up, and I signed up for the Color Run and the Hot Chocolate Run in February - so 2012 is looking to be a pretty good year so far! I'd like to come back and re-cap the end of 2011 (for myself more than anything), but we'll see. I don't want to get into the habit of feeling blog guilt when I don't post something I meant to (or for several months for that matter).
Oh! And for my 2012 scrapbook aspirations, I got THIS!
I'm so excited!! I wanted it last year, but it's "purpose" is to be one of those 365-day albums... where you take a picture everyday? And I just knew I wouldn't follow through with that. However! This year I was looking into it again, and it totally doesn't have to be like that. You can make it whatever you want it to be - 365-day, once a month, whenever you feel like it, or when you have a special event to remember... I'm not sure why I needed "permission" to do it like this, but seeing as I'm a rule-follower, it seems I needed someone to tell me, "yes Jenny - you can do WHATEVER YOU WANT with it - it's okay." So I'm taking the whole "whenever you feel like it" approach to it, and I'm really excited. I highly recommend it - it's super cute, ridiculously easy, and you can make it as easy/cookie-cutter or creative/original as you want. And it's all coordinated, so you can put pages together really fast. LOVE!!
Happy 2012 everyone!!

Cool!! Is that what you're bringing to my house next weekend? I can't wait to see it! Your scrapbook looks amazing. I can't believe you are already done with it! I think I need to be in more pages this year though. Starting with next weekend. Yessss.
umm... I don't remember saying I was bringing a scrapbook (shocking, I know). Do you mean the completed one or the new one?
and I totally agree, and thought the same exact thing as I was uploading it - not enough of you and me for sure!!
I believe there has been a mistake. I don't see pictures of the sporting event (gasp) I made you attend.
I'm pretty sure that made your july worth living.
