As the end of the year rolls around, and the new year is in sight ... it's time to think about the annual calendar. It's a bit of a two for one, as we need pictures for the end of year slideshow as well. Some upload to dropbox, others share a Google album. Some pictures come via text, others are collected from social media shares. Collected, organized into themes, making sure each family is represented in each monthly collage ... add one to each of the birthday ages and anniversary celebrations. Place the order in time for Christmas delivery.
Then ... preserve the calendar collages on the blog. A sneak peek for anyone who happens to check the blog before the Christmas Eve party (where the calendars are distributed). No big surprises ... the usual themes. Snowy pictures in January, red/pink/Love for February, Easter is in April ... lots of costumes for Halloween/October. Birthday pictures sprinkled in. Like last year, a little "family cheat sheet" just in case anyone can't quite remember names of cousins and other new additions (only two this year, two January babies). Check out the family collages HERE.
While this is a calendar for 2026 ... it's really a reflection on 2025.
Remembering the past year while planning for the future.

Note to self ... don't fill the whole page with the image, to bleed off the edge, pull back a bit leaving a white border. The image is slightly smaller but then the coil binding doesn't cut into pictures, and the hanging hole won't be in anyone's head ... oops, remember that for next year! Sorry top row!
