Week In The Life : Saturday

What a great tip for making sure socks don't get lost! Thanks so much for sharing!

Ali,
As many have already said before me, thank you so much for the inspiration you bring to my life. I have been following along all week and have loved the insight into your life. As I have read along I started to wonder if enough would go on in our life to document the small things, so finally yesterday I made the decision to have a go. I figured I had nothing to lose and a lot to gain. Two days in, way behind the rest of you, and I am loving the process. I love scrapbooking but am not a confident photographer and so over the two days I have taken approximately 200 photos. Because of this project I figured out how to use the timer on the camera I have had for four years.
So I just want to thank you so much for being who you are and for chosing to share yourself with us! We are very lucky.
P.S. Not only did I take on the 'A week in the life' project but I started a blog too!! A wonderful week of new experiences!!http://emilyturkalj.blogspot.com/

At first i did not wanted to play along this year... to much on my plate already, and i must confess i haven't combined my album from last year yet (all pictures glued in place already, but it's still up to the final touches!) But then it occurred to me that - being ill and needing yucky treatment for half a year now - that my completely out of ordered life at the moment deserves to be captured! Hopefully i'll live for a long time, but if not, than i won't have missed out on such a good upportunity to leave my family this very detailed document of me! I so wish my mom had left me something like this when she went through all of this too and did not make it! So i started to work (captured even my whole chemo day! http://lifeandscrapping.typepad.com/lifeandscrapping/2010/04/week-in-the-life-wednesday-day-2.html)and i love the process! Thanks for inviting us to join you!

I always feel the same way. I love to travel but I also love to come back home.
You photos are beautiful as always.

Do you get enough sleep? I do not know how you do all that you do!!!

I had to LOL with the tennis shoes. My boys would choose their shoes on how fast they made them feel. I guess all boys are the same!!
Enjoy!

We all have vary life to have BUSY life. But you show us with no matter what is going on with the life, made time to take pictures no matter what, no perfect capture..
Way you did.. all way perfect.
Thank for sharing!

In the picture of Simon at the table with his legos I can just see the reflection of you holding A in the laptop monitor. so cute!

Ali, How do you take the pictures with you in them? Are you using the remote or setting the timer?

wow! that second photo of you in the mirror is just amazing. I just love the light in those curtains and composition is perfect! TFS!

"The Morning View" is by far my favorite shot of the week. You capture images incredibly well. I need to improve with people shots, definitely.

Is that hotel as amazing in person?? It looks so great I want
to jump on a plane right now!!
as for getting home... my Dad used to quote a line from my brother's favourite childhood book, "Oh Captain Kitty", it went like this...
'we've been away
but I must say
that home looks good to me.'
it's always so good to get home.
thanks for sharing!

WOW! Your bed was so cute. Each photo was so beautiful in a wonderful.
