Week in the Life – DAY 1
This year I am embarking on a week long journey into our lives by documenting our week through pictures and words. Ali Edwards is the creator of the Week in the Life project, so “Thank you, Ali”
I purchased the Week in the Life kit from Ali’s shop and it’s beautiful. The album I chose was the grey album with kit. There are still a few kit’s left (without the album) if you still want to grab one.
During the week I will be sharing photos and story ideas here while adding post-it notes to my album to help with planning layouts next week when I hit print on everything and pull it all together.
WEEK 1
Number of Photos – Sarah – 50 all DSLR | Andrew – 1 Phone
One of my main goals this week is to take more photos with my DSLR. I have been a bit lazy and using my phone. I stuffed my DSLR in my purse and took it to work.
THE PICTURES
Morning coffee and reading
Lunches for the boys | also includes chips and CapriSun
Getting one last piece of toast | do you see the construction around the window? | just keeping it real

Desk at work

THE STORIES
Why I wake up without an alarm | What the boys like to take for lunches | Team workout | Lunch with Andrew at home most days | Cub Scouts | Homework ritual | Bed time routine | Blogs I’m reading right now
I won’t write all these stories just for Monday but could be starters throughout the week if I take fewer photos or the days don’t lend themselves to stories.
So far today was manageable. I took more photos than I thought I would and kept track of my day by keeping the worksheets (from Ali) with me. I might have set reminders for the morning with my fitbit…one way or another I’ll justify the purchase.
