Save The Date | Week In The Life 2011
Tags:Save the date for Week In The Life 2011 : July 25th through July 31st.
This year I've decided to document a week in our lives during the summer. Why? A look at what our lives look like in the summer months will be a really nice way to round out my Week In The Life album collections.
It's likely that I'll have a new design for the album this year - still in the 8.5x11 format.
I know one of the questions that people will have is what's the difference between this project and Project Life and will I be doing both? I will be doing both. The main difference for me is that Week In The Life is much more in-depth over the course of seven days. I do at least a full two+ page spread for each day with much more detailed journaling. My plan is to keep on doing Project Life like I am right now - little bits over the course of the week. It's likely that the photos might be repeats and I'm totally fine with that.
Read all about this project from both 2008 and 2010 here: Week In The Life.

I'm so glad! Last year I did it but my daughter was at college, so I'll be glad to be able to include her over the summer!

Oh I so wanna do this!! Very excited. This is a crazy insane week for me this year, so that makes it even more exciting (sister's getting married on the 23rd and my due date is a week after that!!)
Can't wait!!

Maybe if I start getting ready from now I will actually be able to keep up this year? Although there is a chance we might be on vacation then. But that could also be a good angle!

I'm in too. Was planning on doing it around that time this year as for me it will be Winter and that's when I haven't done it before. We will have a newish baby so will be a bit of a challenge- I may have to buy the templates to make my life easier.

So glad that this is being offered in the summer. Count me in! So far these past couple of months I have participated in the December Daily, Yesterday/Today, and I am almost completed with my "Scrapbook on the Road" journal. Bring it on!

This will be an interesting year for my Week in the Life project. My regional management meeting will be held that week in Burlington, MA. I am really looking forward to it because I went to college in Boston and will be able to visit some of my old stomping grounds. It will be a different perspective! Great time for this project! Thanks, Ali!

Ooooh, a summer Week in the Life...that should be interesting to experience, since summer is (typically) a different, slower pace than the springtime. Look forward to more news as the time gets closer...

I'm there! Love this project and have participated in the previous WITL's, such a cool way to document our lifes. It will be the first week of my boys summer holidays and the day after my youngest son turns 6, I'm sure there'll be lots to document!

I swear you are reading my mind. I was just wondering when the 2011 one would because I have never done a week in the life and not sure why I can't do it on my own. I guess because it will be so much more fun with other people (and motivating!). I am so there!

I've never really considered doing a Week In The Life but during those dates I'll have a one month old in the house. That could be interesting to document - those blurry first few weeks!

That gives me a couple more months to finish last years! It will be winter here in Australia, so will think about following along. I need to be more disciplined in actually getting it finished! Enjoy your holiday.
