I read about this a few weeks ago here and decided to do one this year. I ordered a 6x6 WRM scrapbook album with the protectors last week. I just got it and am looking at pinterest for ideas on getting started. I did take my 1st picture this morning  Anyone else doing this? |

I'm ashamed to say I still haven't finished last year's album, but I LOVE the idea of focusing on my blessings instead of my worries so I'm making notes and taking pictures for it again this year. I want to use one of the mini albums I already have to cut down on cost so I just need to commit to a size so I can actually begin the scrapping part.  |

Yes, first time for this project. Got my cover page done (8x8 postbound album), supplies assembled and a few pics taken. My first page is concerning my love for hot tea, and how thankful I am for my early am cuppa! Gonna be a combo of fluff and serious!

I'm going to BLOG about it and also post my gratitudes to social media. I'm not sure if I'll make a 'project' with the final list - maybe a layout or some PL pages. I started a [HASH]30DaysOfThankful group Pinterest board and would love to have some Refupeas join in and Pin! Or just swing by and check out the board to be inspired in whatever project you decide on |

I put part of my book together today! We have 10 people in our family and each one is going to take three days of the month to do a page.

I'm going to do this. Took my picture and need to do my journaling. Still not sure what album I'm going to use, but I want to keep it small.

I did it last year. It was eye opening, especially to hear DS's replies as to why he was thankful each day. However, it consumed too much of my time.

Last year I focused so much on taking a picture that I limited myself to ONE thing a day to be thankful for. I decided to do it differently this year. I've had a horrific month (DD22 moved out and is struggling, a huge financial set back, our beloved golden retriever was hit by a car and killed, and now my wonderful co-teacher has had it with the corporate BS and is quitting) so I'm doing a list everyday of ALL the things I can think of to be thankful for. I really feel like I'm in danger of not getting through this next bit, so I want to try and balance my perspective. Scrapping as therapy... that justifies my stash, right? |

I like the idea of making a couple of pages for the month of November. Wouldn't hurt to get the kids involved; especially the teen boy!

Yes, I got started on mine! I don't know what the "official" way of doing it is, but I am using lined Project Life cards with very little embellishments. I am going to see if anyone who comes over will join in--my aunt was the first one to write a card!--but I'm still writing one every day, and so is my mom. We're putting them together for a whole bunch of pages of Thankful!
