project life week 4

This is a week late, but we had a super busy weekend last week and I didn't get a chance to put this together until Sunday night. Then I started my new job on Monday and didn't have any daylight hours at home to photograph it. I thought I'd just double up this week, but then I got busy again and haven't had time to get to week 5 yet! Let's just say I'm grateful for the simplicity of this memory-recording system right now. I am already a little behind, but I know it will be easy to catch up.

Week four had the US Army Band Tuba-Euphonium Workshop, which Chris played a big role in hosting and organizing. He was really busy all week and I didn't get to see much of him, but it was great because so many of our friends from college were in town for it, including Chris's professor.

This week was fun contrast to the previous week, because in week 3 I had a lot of fun putting a lot of embellishment and detail on each slot. This time, I was crunched for time and put it together really quickly with primarily just photos and label stickers. To me, that's the coolest part of this project: I can do whatever I have the time for, and not worry about making everything super complete and artistic.

Here there's a screenshot of an iPhone game Chris and I have been playing, a picture of my temporary tattoo for the week, a tag from an online purchase, an business card from an awesome store I found, and a photo at the Marine barracks where I volunteered for a few weeks.

The conference had lots of good photo opportunities, so I decided to use a 6x12 divided insert to include extras. I really liked doing that and I'll definitely be looking for more opportunities to use extra pages!

The second page has a ew more conference photos and some journaling about the conference, a photo of Margaret's quilt, some fun wrapping paper from a gift Chris received, a few photos from a nice lunch we enjoyed, and that pretty pinky-purple picture.

One month of project life complete already!
