RemARKable Blog Tour - Memories

Welcome!  Wasn't Nancy's post awesome!
The past two weeks have been exciting, stressful and memorable for our family!  I haven't written about it on my blog, however if you follow my facebook page you know that last month I hosted a baby shower for my daughter.  It has been an exciting time for our family.  "Oliver" was due next week on March 19th, however he made his debut on Feb. 23rd- three weeks early.  His arrived via an emergency c-section as he was in distress and we learned after his birth that my daughter's appendix burst. With an extended hospital stay for both mom and the NICU for Oliver, I am thrilled to say they are both home and doing well!  Our theme this month is about memories and we certainly created lots of those the past 3 weeks!  I am sharing a Project life spread I created for my daughter of Oliver's birth.

I found this photo tray in my craft room -

I knew it would be perfect!  It has 6 - 4' by 6" openings.        


                                                       

This came together quickly ...I picked a few photos I wanted to use, some Project Life cards from the Little Moments Set , and some pieces from the accessory pack. Best part is when I'm ready to create a new spread each of the 6 cards will come out and go into a Project Life Memory Book! 

Don't leave those photos on  you phone or in a box- Project Life will help you to preserve your memories!  Just need to journal so that Oliver will know about his first 2 weeks!
