Working On a Scrapbook


Scrapbooking  is hard work
Revisiting adventures
Worth the time it takes

~~~~~~~

Since we started traveling abroad in 2015 I've postponed working on gathering these memories.  It was a big mistake.  I should have started right away when we got home from our first trip to Italy  

My first mistake was not keeping a journal on the first two trips.  So those scrapbooks were more difficult to organize.  But that is what I've done on the next three trips and so far with this scrapbook it's been much easier.  So, I'm nearly finished with Scrapbook3.  

So far I've completed trip to Italy I and France.  It's really a lot of work but I have to say I've enjoyed reliving the journeys.

Thank be to God!!

Cathy

    My blog is my scrapbook, and I can relate to your comments about the 'hard work'. I haven't really kept track, but I am guessing that for a single post, especially the ones documenting a trip, I invest about 8 hours … it is worth it to have a lasting memory that can be shared with others!

    It is so nice to make good memories. You can then re-live them more than once.

    God bless you.
