Gone Camping ... a camping journal photo collage

I'm getting things done this morning. (And I'm patting myself on the back for doing it too. Ha!)

I've been having issues with my beloved iPhone. It's worked well for all the various things I like to use it for EXCEPT that for the last week I couldn't hear phone calls. Kind of a problem not to be able to make phone calls on a cell phone so I scheduled a Genius Bar appointment for Friday night (As my husband commented, some people like to go out for dinner and drinks on Friday nights - we go to the Genius Bar.  Ha!) Long story short, they replaced my iPhone and I had to restore it from a backup. Turns out I've been syncing my phone to iTunes but that's not a backup. Oops! Thank goodness I backup to the iCloud so I could restore from that.

So ... long story didn't turn out that short. (Sorry!) I spent time last night restoring and cleaning things up and looking through my reminders and sticky notes and noticed that I've had several things pending for MONTHS. One of them being creating a photo collage for my camping journal. So ... I'll share with you the photo collage I created this morning.

(FYI ... I created TWO other things this morning but I can't share the other thing yet. Probably in two weeks. Surprise. Surprise!)

1 event - 4 pages - 4 completely different styles

I made 4 scrapbook pages for our one camping trip this past summer. I just looked at them together and - hmmm - could their styles possibly be more different? Good thing I'm not one who feels that my pages need to match next to each other in my scrapbook, or really coordinate at all for that matter. I like my pages to be individual - just depending on my mood at the moment. I guess that's exactly what I got! Ha!

For fun I'll show you all four pages. Most of the pictures are taken on just one day. Yup, from this you can probably also determine that I love to take pictures! 

I love digi scrapping!

Spelunking at Mystery Caves in Spring Valley, Minnesota

Journaling reads:
We had fun exploring the Mystery Caves with the Johnsons during our camping trip to southeastern Minnesota. We enjoyed the tour, but I have to admit, for some reason walking down slippery steps and trails underground really made me nervous. I grabbed Rachel’s hand for support and she gave me a look that clearly said: “Really? You’re holding my hand?” I reminded her who rescued her from the “terrifying haunted trail incident of 2010.” Needless to say she held my hand!


Thanks Rachel by the way!

I have to say, looking back at my more recent pages, I really do seem to like multi photo pages. Maybe it's just because I have such a hard time deciding what photos I am not going to put on my pages. I always try and make sure, when we're doing something with a group, that everyone (or at least as many people as possible) are in the pages so years down the road we can look back and see everyone in our younger days! That's important, right?!

P365+1: Week 33: Camping at Mystery Cave State Park (August 10-12, 2012)

What an awesome weekend we had camping this past weekend. Mystery Cave State Park was in such a fun area. We're all talking about wanting to go back again ... maybe to camp again, maybe for a mother-daughter weekend, or maybe for a long family weekend getaway. Fun times!
