Project Life 2012

I love looking at everyone's Project Life and a lot of my Facebook friends ask what the project is so instead of sending everyone to someone else's blog I decided to show off  Last weeks and I will be posting it at Jessica Turner's Project Life Tuesday. So if you want to see more then just mine head on over there every Tuesday watch the links fill up.

To give a little back ground information on this week, my niece decided that she wanted to spend her spring break with my mom, dad and myself. It was kind of a last minute thing so I decided to dedicate the entire week's layout to her. I interviewed her and used a lot of her pictures from her camera. 

 

In the picture above you can see a picture of her fort, a chair full of her stuff, we had lunch at the Big Boy, Papa giving up his big boy bed so that Peanut could sleep with my mom, and a shot of Peanut riding her bike and you can see Papa's arm in the back ground.

I added a couple of inserts. I used a 6x12 plastic and cut a 12x12 sheet of card stock in half to print a bunch of questions I could interview her with. I took the one of the free printable from Becky Higgins and customized the Teen Life Story to what I wanted. I did ask some other questions but over all I used what had already been written.

 Here is another insert. I used Design F and cut off a row. You can see a lot of Peanut's pictures. Some are from me, but she went wild with her camera.

 More Shots from Peanut's Camera.

 I did have my mom and dad do a little bit of the journaling. They wrote notes to Peanut and I pretty much summed up the week.









From this week I learned that $50 is well spent to give an 8 year old a camera. While I have a ton of shots of nothing, I do have some really great shots that I never would have gotten because I wouldn't have handed over my camera.
