You met your husband at 14?! And you’ve been memory keeping since then? That’s so freaking awesome Heather! Love that for y’all. Always look forward to your videos.
I memory plan in my planner. So I take 4 pictures from the week or there are more on a family adventure and print them off on a 4x6 picture. I don't decorate like scrapbookers seem to do, but do use some scrapbook paper to set off the pictures. I have 2017, working on 2018, still need to print 2019, add some to 2020, but have finished 2021, 2022 and obviously working on 2023.
Memory keeping is almost the only time I consistently use stickers and washi. I do mine in a planner and I've been in such a slog with it over the last year, but I still love it. I have worried though that the adhesive will wear off years down the road and ruin entire years of work. I don't know if I'll do it forever but my husband loves that I do it and keeps encouraging me to continue.
Thank you for sharing this, I needed to hear it. I have so many photos and use to scrapbook the same way, but with 10 grandbabes and homeschooling- there isn’t any time to keep up with it all. Each of my boys and grandkids had their own albums. Last Christmas I gave them their albums and I am trying to do a different way. I think I found it. Thank you
I am so glad it resonated. I spent so many years feeling guilt over not keeping up with all the things. This permission granted living and doing it my own “easier” way has changed everything.
yaay Heather. I get excited when i see your vid on the feed. I also recently signed up to your patreon. WOWSI the content is exemplary, inspiring and filled with spirit.
Love this. I’ve been looking for an album and this one is perfect. I’m doing some creative journals for holidays but have decided to do photo albums for the rest of the year because it’s just too much work otherwise :)
Awesome Heather! Love your videos! You inspire me every video I watch. I'm not very savvy with social media but trying. I saw your comment jst recently about your journal when you were 8 but I didn't know how to respond. Cool that you still have it! Love you!💙💛
I get so excited when I see you’ve posted a new video! I love you! And, just when I thought I couldn’t love you more, I finally ordered and started reading “The Wild Sexy Life Chick.” I love it so much that I just ordered 5 more copies plus composition notebooks because all of my girlfriends and my mom and sister are getting copies for their birthday this year! 🙌🏼 (I also ordered The Wild Sexy Marriage but haven’t started it yet.) Thank you for the gift of this book and for all the ways you inspire and encourage! 💕

Haha yep. It’s been a journey for sure. Thank you for being here for my ramblings. 💛

It's sorta like Becky Higgins Project life. She has journal cards, albums, page protectors. She also does it digitally.
I was thinking it’s a lot like Project Life. I do the digital to upload a week of photos to my Instagram.
Thank you so much for sharing this!!

I LOVE the idea of using a planner. Just haven’t found the right one for memory keeping which do you use?

I agree. I just started ordering from FreePrints every 3 months, that way its even less intimidating
Thank you for this video!!! I needed it too.
