Okay, that step took up the whole first year of scrapbooking. As I do... I made a whole bunch of work for myself. It is still a good idea, I just didn't realize the bite I bit off. Hmm. That is another common theme in my life.
Well, I was determined that this year I would finally get my wedding photos out of that box and back into an album and I am making good progress. Working on my wedding album when I have been married over 36 years. Go figure.
Speaking of genealogy... they will be releasing the 1940 census in April. My grandmother will be 102 this month and this means I can now find her all the way up until she is 30 years old. It is a little unsettling to realize you can out-live privacy policies. This is also the first year I will find my parents in the census, although they are both gone now.
Okay, back to work. These pages will not make themselves. Words to the wise: do not wait until your children are teenagers to start organizing your photos. I had to ask them to help me figure out which one of them was in some of the pictures - LOL!

I think I would need to start with a margarita or a big glass of wine before tackling that stack of photos! Good luck - it is a fun project.
Ha! This looks familiar. I believe we have even more in common than we thought...smiles...Renee
I have done photo albums since the kids were born, so luckily don't have a daunting task like you have. Good luck - so much fun to page thru a finished album and remember all those events and such.
I never did jump on the scrapbooking bandwagon. Every time I thought about it, I would look at the boxes and boxes and albums and albums of pictures and become too overwhelmed! I would like to do an album for Shylee though!
Anyway, kudos to you for working on your wedding album!
Um, what Annette said.
:-) ...boxes and boxes of photos here. How I love digital photography now. :-)
As always, amazed and inspired by your productivity.
Oh, that looks like fun!
