It can be tricky to go back in time and reconstruct the events for a scrapbook page. However, my memory roundup routine has taught me to look through my calendars and monthly notes to easily jog my memory. As a result, I was able to put together this two-page spread about September, even though we are well into November now.

The end of the month is here, so it’s time to do a month-in-review roundup. I love to take a memory inventory at the end of the month and document it all to add to our family albums.

I share several prompt images each month on the last day of the month. I’m also including a link to my video walkthrough of how to document your life month by month and a demonstration of how I do my own roundups.

I need to remember that sometimes the simplest of projects can be the most rewarding. Our daughter Riley wanted to put together a photo book for her sweet 2-month-old baby Calvin so he could begin to recognize the faces of family members, even though he can't be around them every day. You can imagine that I was more than happy to offer my help with this!

October ends in one week and I wanted to give you a friendly reminder to think about your roundup.

Getting caught up in why you can't dive in and do something you've wanted to tackle is easy. We all do it. We tell ourselves that we will wait until we have more time, money, and energy. Then it just gets harder to start.

I’m doing something a little different here on my blog this week. To celebrate Digital Scrapbooking Day this Saturday, October 1st, I’m going to post about memory keeping each day to get us all ready to celebrate the big event!

This month is speeding by and with only one week left to go, I wanted to give you a friendly reminder to think about your roundup.

The northern hemisphere celebrates the arrival of fall on the date of the autumnal equinox. Is it autumn where you are right now? What is the weather like on this date? Does it feel like summer still, or is it starting to cool off? Are the leaves changing yet? Take a picture outdoors today and write about the conditions and temperature.
