Okay, here's an old one for me with a new twist. (Note: it was abandoned last year due to the impending doomsday that lay ahead--the big move out).
My sister gave us a Christmas journal as a wedding present 13 years ago--to use as a journal of memories through the years. I only forgot one year (it was packed in a box when we got new carpeting and I couldn't find it)... and I really enjoy reading it.
It's been fun to read the difference between the entries through the years, particularly from the time before we had the girls to after.
And now that D9 now knows where all the booty comes from, it will take on a very different flavor this year too. (Though I keep asking her to stop growing up, she won't comply )
This year, I'll read the entries aloud to the family and ask for input on this year's entry--I've previously been the one to fill in the blanks.
Maybe it's good that we don't have to relive last year all over again?
