Week in the Life : Sunday Photos + Words

Simon must be a Backyardigans fan?? My kids are Tarzans a lot!
Thanks for the fun week, can't wait to see your finished pages and get started on my own!

Thank You so very much Ali. I sincerely mean this. I had tons of fun taking photos all week. It was a really eye opener, especially going through them and to see all that I took, I love all the pics. I miss my camera today too! This is a great idea, and I can't wait to develop them and get started. You are a true inspiration and a "Gem" for letting us into your home and life.

I can't BELIEVE I got through the whole week! I just took photos whenever I could and wrote a sentence here and there. It happened to be my daughter's birthday on Sunday, so it was a great week to document! Yippee!

I've loved doing this project. The week was actually very "atypical" because of a home emergency, but I'm really glad to have documented this challenging time in our lives. I don't know how much of it I would have captured otherwise...
Anyway, thanks for the inspiration. And I'm also wondering--would you share the pumpkin muffin recipe? They look amazing! (And one more request on top of all those above can't hurt.) :)

Hi Ali,
I really love the idea of an album for 1 week. I just started school and I am sooo busy. I started to work on taking pictures and journaling, but I realized today that I completely forgot to work on the album for about 4 days (no fotos, no journaling). Do you think a page without fotos would work, too?
Love your daily pics.

Hey guys - that pumpkin recipe can be found here (I find a lot at allrecipes.com): http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Pumpkin-Muffins-II/Detail.aspx

Hi Ali,
The divided page protectors seem so hard to find. I called Scrapworks corporate office today, and if I heard them correctly they said they have discontinued the Anthologie line and the page protectors. I am so bummed!

i want to say THANK YOU. you motivate me to get off my pregnant bum and do this... tomorrow is my last day to collect all info and i am so excited. i do have one question, i am ALMOST 34 wks prego, i want to be in my pix but i'm huge... and... i feel unpleasing to the eye... should i include myself? just wondering... thank you for the inspiration

Divided Baseball Card page protectors: I found them at my local Office Depot and they were the Office Depot brand. Hope this helps.

Gotta try Dunkin Donuts Pumpkin muffins, HIGHLY recommended...
SECONDLY,HOT MAMA! Hope you feel as good as you look. You must be wearing your regular jeans.

Thanks for helping us through the week with all your photos and inspiration! I just finished looking at all my pictures. I deleted a few blurry ones but am ready to print them and get started on the album. This will probably be the hardest part for me so I decided to go with a "recipe" of sorts. Maybe it will help others who are stuck on this part. My album recipe is from a Simple Scrapbooks special issue called, "Album Shortcuts." Each two page spread has a collage of photos and a journaling block which I thought would be perfect for each day. The pictures are different sizes and fit together for an 8 x 8 album. I haven't done tons of albums so I thought this would give me a good starting place. I didn't want to bogged down on the layouts---I wanted to make sure I could actually finish this since I had such a great time documenting our week!

could you give us the recipe for those yummy looking pumpkin muffins?? my son LOVES pumpkin anything. ;)

Look at you with the wooden hangers! =)

Could I please get your pumpkin muffin recipe?
They look so yummy.
I want one.
Thanks,

you picked a hectic week for me so I have decided to let it span over the two weeks of school holidays and just accept that I am missing days of photos.
I'm gathering though, sorting out a format and size I want

Ahhh marble tracks, we have many pictures of the cool things that can be built with marble tracks around our house too! Thanks for sharing:-)

I have really enjoyed this past week and reading your blog and your journey. I will definitely be doing this now that have have completed it.
I would love for you to post your recipe for the pumkin muffins. They look delicious.

Hi! I'm so inspired by your "week in the life" project! I'm definitely going to do this some time soon! Love it! Have a super day! :)

Hi Ali! Love all the images you've been sharing; they were a true inspiration as I joined you on this creative journey. I finished taking pictures for the week and am now gathering supplies; I really love your idea to use baseball card holders! Thanks for all the inspiration, Ali!
Oh, and any chance you'd be willing to share the pumpkin muffin recipe with us?? Please :) They look yummy!!

Hi Ali~
Quick Q... Did you literally just cut and paste your lists that you were posting on your blog? Little to no adding or editing? Just curious about how you completed that part of the project.
Thanks
April
