This year, I am taking a simplified approach to document my year with a primary focus on photos instead of embellishments. I enjoy monthly memory keeping, so at the end of the month I like to select a few of my favorite snapshots to include in my album.

I’m a collector of many things: fortune cookie fortunes, key chains, seashells, 25 cent bouncy balls, but most of all inspiration. Inspiration is everywhere. You can find it in a book or online, walking outside or sitting at your desk, but my favorite source of inspiration is my own life experiences.
