Time to roundup December
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.
Use year-end news stories for your memory keeping
I love using the end-of-year news recaps in our memory albums. The headline recaps and top trend lists make journaling super easy and give my pages historical and cultural references to keep them interesting. Be sure to grab some screenshots at this time of year and pair them with your own memories to create a meaningful record of the year.
December will soon be over
December is ending in eight days, so even though Christmas isn’t over, I wanted to plant a little roundup reminder in your mind.
Surgery Day
When I injured my ankle in June of 2021, I never expected to be still dealing with it eighteen months later. But, unfortunately, I've reinjured it so often (and apparently broke it somewhere along the way) that now I can't walk on it at all. You can read more about the whole story and the surgery in this post.
Adobe Photoshop Elements 2023
I review the newest Adobe Photoshop Elements program each year when it is released in the fall. Unfortunately, this year, the release hit the same weekend as our Family Fall Fest, and with that and everything I’ve had going on with my leg, I haven’t gotten around to sharing my thoughts here yet. My apologies! I hope this will be helpful for you now as you prepare to purchase holiday gifts and get ready for a new year of creative projects.
Finished my November roundup
I love getting my roundup done right after the month ends. Feels so good! November was a good month overall. I finally found a doctor who could give me some answers about my foot issues. We had some nice family time. We enjoyed the space between Halloween and Christmas. We don't celebrate Thanksgiving in November (we do ours early in October) so it was nice to have a low-key month.

Documenting Magical Memories
I was so excited to get my new Simply Magical collection up in the shop, I forgot to post about it here on my blog! There are so many ways to use the supplies in this collection. I can’t wait to see what you create!
November is on the way out
Thanksgiving is tomorrow and December is only a week away. The holiday season is here and I want to be sure to keep up on documenting everyday life before it all gets too hectic.
