Day 339: Henry the Ape

I've had Henry the Ape since I was a teenager. Today Zaria found a fun new place for him to hang out in the fire truck basket, something I picked out for the boys' future room at a garage sale.

All day today I kept wondering why August 5th is significant-- I finally realize after the fact that it's Dad and Dawn's 19th anniversary. Happy Anniversary you two!

Day 48: Flowers!

It's a couple of weeks after our anniversary, so Jamin sort of surprised me with a belated flowering. (= I had fun putting our wedding photo place mat on the table to decorate tonight. I still need to make Jamin's card, so we're both a little late this year.

The Idea

A few months ago, I had the hair-brained idea that it would be fun to make a picture story book for my last year in my 20's. My plan is to have a photo for each day of my 29th year that tells somewhat of a story of my day. Eventually there will be a total of 365 days. Correction--it's leap year, so there will be 366 days.

At the same time, I'll be creating a physical scrapbook which will have mostly the same information, but with printed out photos.

The rules I've set:
1. Each photo needs to be taken during the 24-hour period of the designated day. This means no cheating and putting in an extra photo that sort of works for a day I have no photos for. It's OK to have an extra photo, but I'll try to keep most days down to one per day.
2. No cropping. Some of these will look like they need cropping, but I won't do it. See them for all their glory.

My goals:
1. To become a better photographer.
2. To have something beautiful and interesting to remember (and process through) my 29th year.
