Month In Photos: June 2013

 

I decided to post a monthly photo collage here on My Organized Chaos.

The challenge is to sum up the entire month in just a few photos, highlighting the best of the month, with the month and year stamped on it.

My neighbour {who is also a FAB Alberta Photographer, by the way} has been doing this for a while and she prints each months photo, and makes a ‘year of photos’ album. Cute idea, right? {she got the idea here}.

While I do post Wordless Wednesday photos, I thought the album idea was a fantastic one. I have been slacking on making photo books lately {I usually do one for each season}, and thought that one-pagers like this might be easier to keep up with. So thanks April! 🙂

June marks the end of school and the start of Summer holidays. Camping, playing outside and enjoying the time spent together, doing anything and everything. The first part of the month seems to be a whirlwind with so many activities and end-of-the-year events in the schedule. 

Now, it’s shifted – just as busy yet more relaxed and carefree. Here’s to the start of Summer 2013! Cheers!

    1. If there’s enough interest Randa, I will! That would be fun!
      Get one up in the next couple of days and link back in the comments here. I’d love to see!

      1. Wait, did that come across as bossy? I mean IF you do one, which you should, let me know.
        ok, that’s still bossy … dammit, just do it! lol

  1. what a great idea, I might have to do this next month. I agree, June has left me exhausted!

  2. I don’t know if I’d be able to get it down to just a few pictures! But this is an awesome project. Love your pictures! What a super fun June!!

  3. I love how you mixed in some black & white photos. I really need to start doing a lot more photo taking, and honestly buy a better camera to preserve our memories better.

  5. I like the idea 🙂 Breaking it down into a smaller ‘chore’ might make it easier to keep at for sure 🙂
