I got Monday & Wednesday’s pictures off of the internet by just googling the events. I wanted to include pics that people took and posted, b/c social media was such a big part of getting info out so fast. There were updates almost as fast as things were happening, especially later on in the week during the police shootout w/ the 2 brother bombers.
Monday ~ Who: Boston Marathon Runners
What: 2 pressure cooker bombs went off today and they killed 3 people & injured 264. It was crazy to see how many pics were immediately available thanks to social media.
Where: The Boston Marathon Finish Line
When: 2:59 pm EDT
Tuesday ~ Who: Mom & Dad & Autumn & I & The Scouts
What: The theme for Mom’s Scout meeting tonight was “Soaring With Scouts” and she made this hot air balloon & clouds & butterfly out of food. We helped her make the airplanes.
Where: The kitchen table & church building
When: Tues 4/16/13
Wednesday ~ Who: 15 people killed more than 160 injured

Thursday ~ Who: Virginia M, Ashley K, Melanie M, Mom & Me, Jessie & Mary J, Kylie & Karri D

Friday ~ Who: Matthew N, Ben D, Gabriel O, Chance W, Peyton D
What: We went to the Dallas Zoo on a field trip. I liked the giraffes.
Can I just say that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this card? Autumn’s adorable 6 year old handwriting just makes me smile. I need to include things like this more often in my spreads.
Saturday ~ Who: Papa, Jackson, Autumn, Andrew & Aunt Lexie

Nice pages. Love that you pulled stuff of the internet to show what's going on and that you included a journaling card from Autumn--so perfect and so her.
love the fact the kids have written some of the inserts
