Dear Monday,
Let's try to be friends.
Love, Janel
This weekend was wonderful. I feel like I got a lot accomplished :) I've been working on making our home extra cute for all of the special visitors that I will have in a couple of weeks!! I can't wait!! I will be sure to take pictures as I accomplish things.
I spent a lot of time in my journal this weekend too.
It's funny how sometimes inspiration hits on overload, and when that happens, my journal pages are flying.
I went through this lovelies Flickr stream and favorited about a million of her journal pages. Her pages are my favorite journal pages ever, seriously :) I think our style is a lot alike and that is probably why I love hers so much :)
Here are some of the pages that I did this weekend!
ok and this one was totally Elaine inspired:)
and many many more!
I am so happy that I find so much love in journaling this way. It is sooo much better for me.
Let's hope today is the fastest Monday in the history of Mondays. After a weekend full of spring time weather, I am seeing flurries float by my classroom window which makes this Monday even more yuck. Guess what winter? I am OVER IT!
This week is Parent Teacher conference week which means long nights but a very short week. Only three and 1/2 work days this week :)
and then....Adam and I's one year anniversary! soooo exciting :)
Ok, lots of love to all of you!
xoxo

Your journal pages don't even look like journal pages, they look like mini works of art. Soooo beautiful and inspirational.
ReplyDeleteYou know what else is beautiful? How much you love your husband. I just think it is so wonderful when married couples are still so in love. I think it sends such a positive message to cynical people that you can be married and still super happy. At least thats how I feel about my husband and I.
Have a great day!
Oh i love love your journal pages!!! so so much!! I think I would completely totally love it if you sent me that panda poo paper... totally.. LOVE IT! lol Cant wait to see your pretty face!!!
ReplyDeletexoxo,
