Blog-o-Rama, Day 5: Paper

Paper… wow! So much is made from paper! I thought about money, but that didn’t really inspire me. I thought about posting a pic of my marriage license, but that would require me digging through my house to try to locate it… nah, too ambitious for a Sunday afternoon. Then it hit me. I’ve done a ton of scrapbooking in the last fifteen years. So, I decided for this prompt that I had to post a pic of something I created from paper. Something that means quite a bit to me. In fact, the item I chose is one of just a handful of things I would grab if I were forced to evacuate my home in a hurry.

It’s Jillian’s scrapbook.

She has more than one, so I would have my hands full in an emergency situation, but photos are like little mini-memories. You just can’t get them back once they are gone. After much debate, I finally settled on two pictures. One is a Favorite Things layout from Summer 2008, and the other is a Life’s a Beach page from our Spring 2008 Hilton Head Island vacation. I couldn’t decide between the two of them, so I hope you’ll indulge me and enjoy them both.
