*2010: Read through the Bible in a year.
*2011: Compose a list of 52 qualities I love about my hubby (I listed one for every week of the year; that way, I could stay on top of it).
*2012: A year in photos.
I hadn't exactly planned on undertaking this challenge, at least not this year. After all, I'm just trying to take enough regular photos of Hunter to document his first year. But somehow, I was compelled to complete this task. A few years ago, I read about a woman who had done just that: she took a photo EVERY DAY OF THE YEAR. The subjects and images didn't have to be spectacular or indicative of major events. In fact, some were of the mundane, apparently. The point was, it was a visual record of her family's year. Brilliant!
So far, so good. There are a few photos that I never would have taken in the first place (like Leah's sandwich pizza or her stuffed lion playing food), but they capture who we are and some of what we do regularly. If I can maintain this momentum, then the end result should be fun to peruse. Granted, scrapbooking allows me to do the same thing (basically), but the only photos that make it into a book are those that warrant significance (or are especially cute). Thus, the mundane, day-to-day living often gets neglected.
So here's to this new undertaking, this new journey. Enjoy some sneak peaks of our year so far.
Dinner-time antics.
Sandwich pizza.
"No pictures, please!"
A lion has to eat, too.
Cuddle time with my babies. (This was extra special since Hunter doesn't usually sit and listen to a book.)
