Thursday Thoughts - School Daze

I have been all about preserving memories lately.....   preserving that family time....   preserving that ME time too!   And I have been "waxing nostalgic" because my baby twin boys started Big Boy School when they entered the doors to elementary school and their separate Kindergarten classrooms.   

I have no doubt that they will do wonderfully in school that I really want to preserve THEIR memories -- the memories that they are now creating outside of the realm of 'home'!!!  These are the times that their little brains really will be able to remember when they are adults.   I do remember a good bit of my Kindergarten year - the classroom, my friends, the playgound, the lunchroom, and yes, even my teacher.    So, how important is it to keep papers, artwork, report cards, and awards???   To me, it is paramount.    BUUUUUTTT, it has to be easy.

Also, I have been scrapbooking my family's memories since my oldest was born.  Again, paramount (oh yes) for me.   The ultimate and the necessary.....    Ok, but I have a confession..... I have recently transitioned all THREE of my boys' books from the traditional paper, stickers, die cuts, and other embellishments over to digital.   ANNNNDDD I love it!   I figured that since they were boys, the printed, skinny, sleek books are the way to go.   Again easy AND a time-saver!   However I do crave the feel of paper and the manipulation of the pieces in traditional scrapbooking, so have not given it up completely.   My family book is done traditionally.    Anyway, enough of my rambling....

Since I have streamlined my scrapbooking, I wanted a way to streamline a way to keep my memorabilia.....

sooooo, check this out!   I LOVE IT!!!   Easy, peasy!!


I found it on Someday Crafts!   Oh, so cute!
