Happy Monday friends. Did you all have a lovely weekend? Mine was the perfect combination of fun and catching up on some to-dos around the house. Saturday evening I went to a tapas party and had the most amazing peach Sangria. It's so refreshing on a warm Summer evening--I must recommend it if you're hosting a little soiree of your own this Summer.
Today it's back to planning some fun, Summer kiddo activities. My daughter took quite a liking to the weekly journaling she did in class this school year so, I thought it might be fun for both of us to keep a journal and chronicle our adventures over the Summer. After seeing Pam Garrison's awe inspiring work, I am completely smitten with the idea.
Fun, right? I don't expect ours to be nearly as cool but, I love this free flow, coloring outside the lines approach to journaling and I think my little one will too { + it's a really good excuse to look for cool notions that we can incorporate into our books }. How about you...have you ever or do you currentlly keep a journal?

what a great idea, and such great images...xo
Great seeing you this morning!
Yes, I keep journals. I love capturing my thoughts and dreams on paper. My favorite journal was the one I kept while traveling Europe. I brought colored pencils, a glue stick and scissors with me. When I was on a bus or train I would cut out brochures, ticket stubs, or anything else I'd collected. The pages became a jumbled mix of writing, doodles, and art.
Have fun capturing summer!
I love peach sangria! White wine sangria is my fave.
really lovely! each page is like little pieces of art!
I kept a journal almost every day from age 9 to 27. I oddly stopped a few days after meeting my husband.
I like to think it was because there wasn't much left to dream about.
These are beautiful....I wish I kept a journal as beautiful as these. It would be nice to have to look back on.

I'm instantly enthralled and determined to start my own :)
I kept a journal for six years and stopped all of a sudden... but these are so lovely I am inspired to start again!!
I am so inspired by these journals, too. I kept journals for years but didn't include art, though I'm an artist. Seems like the perfect medium to dabble in.
BTW, love your blog:)
What an inspiration these are. I can feel some journaling coming on!
