I pledge......

...to take more photos of my family this year and DO SOMETHING WITH THEM! The "doing something with them" part has been eating at me for the last year or so as I fall further behind in creating family photo albums. (Not to mention my second child is 2.5 and there is no baby book in sight) Enter the 52 week family photo project! This is NOT my idea, but I love it! I learned about it through a wonderful photographer I follow (Brooke Snow) and she learned about it from her friend Rhonda. I have heard about the 365, photo-a-day projects, but this one fit my lifestyle so much better. I can do 1 photo a week! So I have set out to follow along with these two gals and have myself a fun little album full of memories at the end of the year.  Rhonda explains the whole project HERE. I love that she sets some rules to overcome her perfectionist tendencies, as she puts it. (wow, I relate to that!) I am already behind a bit, but no worries. At 1 photo a week, I can catch up. ;) I'll be posting a few of my photos now and then and per Rhonda's rules, I won't be changing anyone beforehand, straightening up anything or always dragging out my 5d (my rule). My iPhone will do just fine. Heck, I probably won't edit most of them.  Get 'er done. Capture the moment. Won't you join me?

The first week was photos in the car. We spend a lot of time in the car. I think a lot of moms can relate! This was snapped on the fly with my phone. Oh, and I was stopped in a parking lot, not driving!
