may 2015 layouts :: pocket memory keeping / project life

I completed my layouts for May early this morning. I journaled last night and embellished a little this morning.

I'm so happy to be done!

Addy asked to put on a bathing suit in early May when it was not the time for it. It was random, and a sweet reminder that she's a little kid who likes to dress up. I had to take a few pictures. Anyway, I included two too many calendars on this layout (as I've done before). #sorrynotsorry. I love them!

I documented our Mother's Day celebration above. I included the card Jesse got for me. Behind it is the card Evie got for me. I wanted it to be something that could be read through, so I didn't put them in a protective sleeve.
This is the layout with the cards removed:

I included an insert with a few extra pictures of my girls, and on the back of the insert I included a questionnaire my girls filled out about me for Mother's Day. I scanned the originals and shrunk them to a 4x6 size to fit in my book:

On the right side (of the layout above), I included an outing with my family for my sister-in-law Sarah's birthday and below I included the Greek yogurt recipes I shared on my blog. It's 6 weeks worth. (I needed to catch up as you can see).

Above I documented my sister Jasmine's Mickey/Minnie Mouse birthday celebration (on the left). I also documented Evie's good friend's birthday "cupcake wars" celebration (on the right).

Finally, I shared pictures of our garden on the left and the first week of June on the right. I'm sharing the summer months in a separate book. I've shared most of June there. See our "summer break diary 2015" here... What I'm saying is I'm caught up!!

Send my certification of completion to the following address... ;) But seriously: !!!!
