Good afternoon everyone. It is long overdue but I've finally (!) posted my ABC faith/family scrapbook album today on my blog. I'm so sorry it took so long, I'm not usually all talk. blush, blush.

I had an idea for all those using the Alphabet Path over on the Serendipity blog. I've been so admiring Elizabeth and Tracy's activities (Pinewood Castle blog), and thought, why not take all those great handmade items, at least take photos of them and get them into an ABC album to conclude the grand educational project the family is working on together. Why not?

Being that I have already admitted to compulsive addictions, here again, I will tell you I am hopeless with all my GREAT fun making family memories I hope will last a lifetime and beyond.

Perhaps I can inspire you to take on such a project, if only just for making your family something tangible to view over and over again. Perhaps. The sky is the limit with ideas for this particular project and I've linked to other websites for your consideration. I'm going to make another myself. I just decided that because I have before me my elaborate holy card collection my grandmother gave to me before she died, and I can just imagine the possibilities of doing an ABC book about the Saints around the liturgical year perhaps... My cogs are turning!!! Woohoo!!!

If you are up to something like this, please share with me, I want to know. Tell me, tell me... snicker. Feel free to email me anytime, love to hear from you.

Renee--that is awesome!! Before #4 came home, I was always one envelope within being up to date in my albums. That's when we got a digital camera and everything went amuck--as it stands, I am nearly 3 years behind, and haven't an idea where to start.

I admire your dedication to keeping the memories safe. You kids and grandkids will treasure them
