Monthly challenge - look at your events this month

Are you like me?  Do you have all the intentions in the world to get things done, but they end up escaping you...and then you spend the day before getting things done that needs to be done.  While you are doing that, you have phone calls, or school work, or house work, or someone spills something you need to clean up...you get the idea!  Spending a little bit of time at the beginning of the month to look at the events you have in your life will certain help you in the long run.  Your challenge today is to look at the events you have coming up, for me...this includes birthdays galore! 
I am planning on making a mini album for my mom...8 x 8 in size, where each of her children can put their favorite picture in it, and memories of her.  It is designed to be special for HER.  Now, this is where I will tell you...when you plan something, make sure you plan for the unexpected too.  In my case, it was my sister that was the unexpected...her husband has a daughter from a previous marriage, Logan is considered Allisons, just because she is Grants.  When I designed the album in the first place, Logan didn't get added to it.  After speaking to my sister, the basics of the album didn't change, but the inner workings of the album did! 
Also keep in mind Easter is here this month, are you planning on making cards, pages, or albums for the event?  I will have fun mini albums in an Easter theme on the blog this month...  It's a wonderful month of fun ideas...so get all your stuff put together in one area, find something to keep it in...and lets get started!
