As we wrap up the Twelve Videos of Christmas, it is my hope that you have felt a little uplifted, a little inspired, a little motivated in some way.
For the final video in this series I hope you feel a little bit of all of that.
All photos are from our family’s 2010 Project Life.
Music is 100 Years by Five for Fighting

Love it Becky! Thanks for the year-round inspiration!
I have been completely inspired! Thank you so much for doing all of this Becky! Many blessings to you and your family for 2011. From a fellow Frederick County, MD girl!

LOVE this! Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring. I’ve been contemplating what my “one little word” should be for 2011 a la Ali Edwards and I’ve been leaning towards “live”. I think watching your video just clinched it for me
To live and truly appreciate life’s blessings. What better way to document that than with Project Life. Thanks again Becky!
SEE… this is why I LOVE YOUR STINKING GUTZ!
ah.MAZING!
crying…
love everything about this video…. wish it were my own!
-Jess
Favorite “day” by far. Thanks for the ideas and inspiration!
Thanks for sharing this, Becky. I really enjoyed catching a glimpse of your everyday life. You have changed the way I scrapbook and now I appreciate the small stuff in my own life. Thanks for being such an inspiration!
I absolutely LOVE this video. Thank you so much for sharing!
Absolutely gorgeous! I loved the pictures, the music and the inspiration! Can’t wait to start my digital Project Life project on January 1st!!
Absolutely loved the video….and so sorry it’s the last in the series! And by the way–we both have the Valentino Sheyb camera strap–love it!
Love this! Your final day was the absolute best!! Can I totally steal this idea for my own family’s 2010 slideshow “review”? It would go perfectly with my 2011 word “story”.
Thanks for everything you do to inspire all of us!!
That was a very uplifting video! Thanks for giving us more ideas on how to document our family’s lives in 2011.
WOW! Thank you for sharing. You are so right. I thank you, tearfully ~aimee
Oh, I am crying. Totally inspired. Please keep this somewhere on the website where we can easily find it….in case someone needs inspiration or a little pep talk.
Thank you for sharing and for Project Life.
Wow!!! What a great video!!! Thanks for making the everyday things in life seem not so “everyday”!!!
I’m definitely inspired by this video!!
Beautiful-SO excited to get started…I’ve got the whole fam in on it…even the Hubs
But, I HAVE to ask…WHAT ON EARTH HAPPENED TO LITTLE CLAIRE??!! Poor kiddo
Thanks for all you do,
Mandy in Phx
I was thinking the same thing…what happened to Claire???
That was wonderful and totally inspiring. Makes me want to do Project Life for 2011.
Occasionally I flip through my PL book and I’m struck by the passing of seasons (we have 4 distinct seasons here in eastern Washington wine country) and by the ordinary that became extraordinary because I captured the moment! It’s full of faces I love and things we shared. It’s been a blessing to me. I chuckle when my husband or daughter say “Take a picture of me for your daily photo.” as they go about living life. Truly amazing.
Becky,
Thank you for sharing your pictures. Very inspiring, as usual. I enjoyed the videos of December.
You are truly blessed.
Best wishes for 2011,
Susan
Wow-this brought tears to my eyes…thank you for sharing Becky!!
THANK YOU Becky! So, so inspirational! I can’t wait to start on my album … and my picture taking next year!
This video was far the BEST! Thank you for sharing it & inspiring others including me to photograph & document more of our everyday LIFE! Awesome…thank you!!
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL video!
Your amazing.
Thank you.
Totally AMAZING and INSPIRATIONAL!! Thanks for reminding us that it’s not just the big things that are important, it is the every day that is important!!
Thank you so much for sharing Becky. Have loved all your videos, but this was the best. Great inspriation for my kit that is coming in 3 days!!! Have a blessed New Year!
This is PERFECT. This is my third year of doing Project Life. Yes, sometimes taking a picture once a day is hard because you want to take something meaningful. But looking around, everything is truely meaningful to someone. I love that I can include my husband, children and pets into my project. Project Life has become such a big part of our own lives and I can’t thank you enough.
LOVE LOVE LOVE it! Thanks for sharing!
That was totally cool! I loved it so much! What an inspiration!
WOW! I love it all! I am so excited to start my journey with project life…thank you for sharing with us!
I am going to miss these videos soooo much…now you have to come up with some more to keep us all happy(as if you don’t have enough to d already!)Have a very Happy,healthy New Year!
Becky..You saved the best for last!! That gave me chills and tears. I can’t wait for my kit to come in. Thanks for all of your inspiration over the years!!! Your the best !
Thanks for all the videos! This last one was great! You’re so inspiring! Happy New Year to you and your adorable family! BTW, what happened to Claire? She looked pretty banged up in one of the photos. Hope all is well.
OK, this one got me. Thank you for sharing this and being real. Definitely played on my emotions today and brought tears to my eyes. My kids are young as well and I know this is such a short season in our lives…a good reminder to embrace each moment.
Thanks!
Julie
OH WOW…proof that Project Life is POWERFUL!!!
THANK YOU for sharing your BEAUTIFUL life with us!!!
May God keep you and bless you and yours in the coming year!
Simply….Thank you.
Thank you for sharing so much of your life, your time, your inspiration and your energy on us…people you may not even know.
Thank you!
-Michele
Girl…way to push my buttons…I’ll be stalking the UPS truck tomorrow
LOVE IT.
LOVE! Thanks for sharing and inspiring us all. I’m teary!
Awesome video Becky way to end the series!! Thanks for the glimpse into your year and the inspiration to record my own. I’m currently in catch up mode trying to finish 2010 Project Life before starting 2011 can’t wait to see my family reflected through a year all in one place.
I am still working to get everyone involved for 2011, although I did get a few oh that would make a good picture of the day suggestions this year, or a oh is this gonna be for your photo of the day.
Here’s to another great year of documenting our families!!
Becky, thank you for the inspiration… it made me teary watching it and thinking of documenting those big and small moments in our life this upcoming year… using Project Life for the first time… I am so excited to have all these moments from one year in a cohesive album with your kit! Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication!
Best video yet! Wow, I was considering doing monthly layouts in 2011, as I’ve done a picture a day for the past 2 years with P365 and PL, but after seeing your video I’m afraid I’ll miss out on many of those everyday moments that are most important. Thanks for sharing your talents and inspiration.
Becky this is my FAVORITE video yet!!!! It made me all emotional… like how I feel looking thru the last two years of MY Project Life books and seeing all of the people and experiences that make up this BLESSED LIFE I get to live!!!
THANK YOU again for creating Project Life… it is a TREASURE to me and my family too!!!
Looking forward to MORE LIFE in 2011!!
Tears are rolling down my cheeks thanks for sharing and inspiring me. 2011 goals – simplify, better photography, focus and achieve…. my project..LIFE
Wonderful……
Hi Becky – Wasn’t having the best day so far this morning, just daily stresses. After watching your video I feel inspired to document the everyday because we don’t get that time back and all we have our memories. Thank you for that reminder, I really needed it today.
I’ve never had a problem knowing what to photograph for Project Life, but you have re-inspired me and re-motivated me all over again. My favorite picture was the one with the couch cushions… my kids are big now and don’t get as excited about that type of stuff anymore. I thought I’d never miss it, but I do, now that it’s gone. Now excuse me while I go photograph my teenagers painting their bedroom
And that was my favorite of your 12 videos! To think I wasn’t going to do Project 365 in 2011. So glad I bought my kit. I only wish I had started scrapping long before I did. Happy New Year Becky!
Have enjoyed every video. Thank you so much!
Totally made me cry. Loved your video! Thanks for inspiring us to jot down the things we’re going to forget and can relive forever if we capture it now. You’re the greatest!
LOVE this! Seriously you need to come decorate my home and personal shop for clothing for me too
TFS your life with us all Becky and thank you for creating a way for us to so easily capture moments of our own stories!
So well said – Visually!!!!!! Love it
The best video for last. Loved it. One of my very favorite songs too. AND my PL was sitting on my doorstep this morning. Thanks SO much for giving us everything we need to document our life memories in one amazing box. Happy New Year!
Thanks Becky! I got six kits (6!) for Cmas gifts. This video will help me show them what the concept of PL is in a quick snapshot!!!
Tx for your perspective on life.
C.
LOVE it! Looking down at my Project Life box and am so inspired! Thank you!
I’m speechless! Your videos are wonderful! I know I concentrate too much on the big moments in life and neglect the everyday moments. Thanks for your reminder and your inspiration!!
Oh my…I am just a tearing…this video was awesome. It brought back some BIG memories when my kiddo’s were that little. Gosh it seems like only yesterday. Your family is beautiful!!!! They grow up soooooooooo fast. Thank you for creating project life AGAIN!!! It is SO doable when you work, have laundry, games, errands, bills, cleaning, AND more laundry. Thanks Becky. I am having my girlfriends over for “our” Christmas gathering that we do every year together…this just really made my day and I cannot wait to share this video with them.
Lisa…cheers~
Thanks – reminded me of the little things being important!
timeless. Beautiful. Inspiring…
I have never been so excited for project life…. as I am now…
I have really enjoyed your 12 Days of Christmas videos, but this one really touched me and made me feel so grateful for my life…big and small.
Thank you and Happy New Year to you and yours.
that was very touching. My oldest daughter is a senior in high scool, and I am cherishing every moment that she is at home with us, as I know next year she will be off to college. When people tell you how quickly your children grow up, it doesn’t seem possible. But let me tell you having an 18 year old and 15 year old, they do! One minute they are in diapers and the next off driving around and doing thing on their own. Becky… are are truly an inspiration. Thanks,
-Debra
You ROCKED it! Thank you!
I have enjoyed every video you’ve done for the Videos of Christmas, but this was definitely my favorite. That is definitely a question I have a lot – I haven’t done anything exciting today, so what do I take pictures of? Thanks for reminding me to take a look at all the little things that make up my life. I’ve really enjoyed the videos this month!
You inspire me. Big Project Life cheesy photo of me and my daughter and the box coming your way very soon!
Kim
Your video ROCKED! Thank you.
Very inspiring indeed! You reminded me that even running errands and doing laundry was something to capture, and something to cherish at the same time. Thank you for your time and THANK YOU for Project Life. It has made a difference in my life.
oh for pete’s sake…did you really need to make us cry!?!?
so excited to start taking pictures for the year ahead! you have given me a million new ideas!
thanks for sharing what matters most to you Becky!
The BEST part was the “bummer moments”. So true.
The best part was the “bummer shots” – so true.
This was just the boost I needed to get the finishing touched done on my PL! Hey, I have a question. . . I am envying the new SLIMMER binder for the 2011 PL. Is there any talk of producing a slimmer version of the 2010 binder? I promise I would recycle the one that currently houses my PL for this year in some way. I really love the slimmer version. It would be nice to maybe offer some of the items in the kits seperately, like the binder in slimmer form.
Oh my gosh, everything has already been said! Loved the video, got tears in my eyes like others, it was the perfect ending (and new beginning for those of us just starting Project Life 2011). Thank you so much!!
I loved your video!! Sure makes you realize that all your pictures don’t have to involve people.
Stephanie P – you could probably just buy the other color of the 2011 album and swap it out for the thicker 2010 one. It wouldn’t matter than the cards and stuff on the inside may be a little different in the colors. You’d still get the thinner album and the 2011 ones are being sold separately. I would guess that there’s no way they would manufacture the 2010 one in a slimmer version now. Just a thought.
Becky,
Thanks so much for letting us view a peek of your family’s life. I have to admit that this was the second year I tried the picture a day approach and I got behind and thinking about how behind I was my desire to get to it kinda fizzled out. I did take plenty of pictures throughout the year tho so I should be able to do a monthly recap of 2010…I hope…lol. So I fully admit that I was not planning on getting another PL kit this year because I didn’t want it to just sit there. But a few things have caught my attention this week: 1) I was watching an episode of Hoarders on TLC the other day and the woman on the show was having a hard time letting go of her grown children’s childhood possessions and the therapist had her repeat over and over” I cannot get back their childhood”. Now this struck a chord with me because I have a 3 and a half year old son (I’m a single mom) and I admit sometimes it seems like the bad days outweigh the good with him and it seems like I am in a hurry for him to grow up out of this stage. But that one tv episode made me stop in my tracks and look at my son (who was asleep at the time) and really thank God that I still have plenty of childhood memories to make and enjoy with my son. 2) I was really inspired by the video from MaryAnnn that you posted about her album and I loved all the memorbillia she included in her album. It reminded me about the first scrapbooks I did in college, I’m a saver so I have tons of stuff and that really gave me a great idea of where to put it all. and 3) I have to say I am in love with the color designs for this year and that the binder is alot less bulky. I have limited space to work with so for me smaller is better. : ) And wow I never leave comments this long but I just wanted to share that with you. Thanks for giving us all an inspirational place to hang out in cyberspace.
My favourite! THIS is the best form of marketing for Project Life….
Patiently waiting for my box to arrive any day now here in Australia. Can’t wait to start the new album, but even better, it’s going to feel GREAT to have a completed 2010 album finished days after the end of 2010! Great feeling of accomplishment…
Thanks again Becky
I seriously had chill bumps watching this…along with tears too. Thank you for showing us that life is made of big and small moments that are equally important. Can’t wait to start my Project Life 2011!
Becky, great video and beautiful pictures…..here we come 2011
wow is all i can say!!! i wasn’t sure if i was going to take the time to do the PL in 2011 but you inspired me to give it a try again!!! Great video!!!
Okay, so maybe it is a bit silly, but I am sitting here with tears in my eyes watching this lovely video of your precious family moments. Thank you so much for this wonderful reminder to record every little bit of our lives. The little and the big. So very, very important. Beautifully done!!
PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT!!!! I love it and how you said, “Documenting life is recognizing your blessings”…this is so true!! This will be my 3rd year doing a 365 kit and it is the greatest gift I’m doing for my children and for myself to see how God has blessed our family during the years! Thank you for helping me have the tools to make a treasure of memories for my family! Thank you Becky ♥
This is by far my favorite video out of the twelve! I, like many others have tears too! Thank you so much for doing this! Your kids are so cute!!
That video was better than any of the other suggestions about organizing or whatever. I feel inspired now to make a video of all the POTD that would summarize our 2010. I, too, have some photos of broken and spilled items; it’s truly part of our lives. This is my 3rd year doing Project Life/365. I got one for some friends and hope they like it and will use it!
Thanks for making my ordinary life something special with a Project that highlights great stuff.
That song always gets me!! Beautiful video!!! Thank you for sharing!
I love it! Thank you Becky! That was a really good tear jerker and you have a wonderful way of reminding us all about what is important in life. Here we come 2011!!!
Awesome! And if that isn’t incentive to show the importance of our daily lives, I don’t know what is! Thanks and I’m looking forward to the 1st and 2011!
Thank you! I am excited for my pl to arrrive! Hopefully today will be the day!
LOVED the video! I did PL for the past 2 years (your first one is still my favorite!) And I did get behind in photo taking and journaling. However, I still printed out and put in what pictures I did have and last night we all went through the past 2 years of photos and loved it. So even though its not finished, its better than having the pictures on my computer or in boxes! I’m seriously thinking about ordering more kits for previous years! I too love the thinner binder! Thanks for a great product! You ROCK!
yeah… beautiful, really beautiful!
i don’t do pl, but i try to scrapbook the ‘everyday’ and this has given me some inspiration! I should have taken a pic of the 3000 perler beads that were in the middle of the play room the other day! (I could always go and dump them again! only a scrapbooker would do that!)
This 12th video is so awesome, Becky. I’ve enjoyed this series so much and truly appreciate that you took time to pander to your many fans. I would love to have had PL when my own children were little, but I made gifts of last year’s PL to both my daughter and DIL so they can record their lives. I’m really a hands on scrapbooker, love all the gluing and trims, etc., so I made (took me a long time) scrapbooks for both of my adult children. I did lots of pictures & tons of journaling, creating books of memories from just before they were each born and going through their young adult, pre-married lives. They each got rather misty when I presented those to them on Christmas Eve. My POTD included 2, one of both family groups as they hovered around their spouse & parent to see the wonder of it all. I was very teary, but managed those pictures. They will be forever priceless to me as their albums will be priceless to them. You were my inspiration for taking on that task, even though you prefer not to scrapbook that way anymore. I truly appreciate all that you do. Happy New Year to you and your sweet family.
Carol
Becky- thank you so much for the inspiration. I enjoyed all the videos and look forward to more in 2011.
wishing you a joyful new year. PL ordered…anxiously awaiting it’s arrival.
oh what a beautiful video.. it put tears in my eyes.. I felt all the love through your photo’s.. and so hearing the laundry thing.. neverending!! I can’t wait to get started.
You made me cry today. GREAT video Becky.
We appreciate YOU and your efforts to make recording our lives a blessing in itself.
Thank you.
My PL arrived today! I bought two–one for our family for 2011 and one for my husband to go back and put all his mission pictures and stuff in. I’m excited for this year and creating another meaningful album. My little boy loves to look back over the year and remember all the big and little things we did. It really has been one of my biggest acclompishments this past year. Thank you for creating something that is so managable and fun.
Thank you Becky for this video – very inspiring. As I start Project Life for the first time in 2011 I was starting to worry about what I would photograph, especially with not having children. But you reminded me of all the different things I could document – a big thank you! Really enjoyed your videos
Thank you so much…this video really got to me. I have been so disorganized and haven’t scrapped in a long time. I need to..my daughter will be five in February. I have a digital photobook of her first year from Shutterfly, that’s it really! I have thousands of pics to sift through, but luckily have already marked most of my fav’s. I expect PL to arrive soon, and am probably ordering another! I intend to get myself in gear, use those kits and THEN use the years of supplies I have in my room! Your video made me feel better about some pics I even took today; like the mounds of snow piled up between the Wendy’s cashier window and pick-up window! I look forward to more of your inspiration in 2011…Happy New Year to you and your beautiful family!
I sat down to watch the last video and my husband walked in and sat down to watch it with me. We both sat in a sweet silence as we watched the simple moments that you captured. Then we talked about all the great moments we have been able to save in our project life album this year. Pictures that I never would have taken without this fabulous project as my goal. At first I didn’t think I would be able to take a picture everyday. Now some days I take 3 or 4. Thank you for an inspirational way to document LIFE at it’s fullest.
Wow! I absolutely LOVE the last video. They are all great, but that one – SPECTACULAR! One of my favorite songs, too-perfect! Thank you sooo very much for inspiring and showing us how todocument our lives. You ROCK!
Thank you for this! It was beautiful and heart warming and motivating! Thank you for all you do Becky! Can’t wait to see what we ALL accomplish in 2011!
This sooo made me cry! This is the reason I wanted to do Project Life for the first time this coming year… capturing all the little details of my family’s life… all the little mundane things that don’t make it into my scrapbook, but should. Thank you so much for creating such an amazing product and this video that should inspire me to keep going at it all of 2011!
I also cried during this 12th video. Can’t really pinpoint why but I did. Thanks for sharing your talent and life/family with us. You did a great job on picking the last video! Emotional but yet inspiring and motivating at the same time. Thanks!
amy s
THAT video makes me want to do Project Life! Inspirational!
watched it twice and cried both times. Love you Becky. You rock!
I agree – this was your best video yet, and I really enjoyed each of them. I did Project-365, then last year I switched to one layout per month, with a few extras thrown in. I think you’ve just inspired me to go back to a photo a day with my new amber kit when it arrives. I think these albums are really going to mean a lot to my daughter (now 3) and her children some day. I only wish my “Gram” had made such an album. I know it would be a treasure to me! Thank you for your constant inspiration!
wow! thank you for sharing. I have not even printed my children’s photos. I have recorded up to the day I left the hospital with my first child….he is turning six in January. When our budget gets better and husband gets a job, I am going to order this Project Life. I have been coming to your blog and watching you share about it……I want to do it too!!!
thank you!
I have tried to take pictures of the day to day things that are just life as well as the big things. In ten years will I remember that my son uses swim goggles in the tub to take a bath, yes because I have a picture of it. Thanks for project life, it has changed how I look at life with my kids. One day they will be gone, but I will be able to remember the little day to day things in life. I have a magnet board that says “every picture tells a story.” My little girl said “Mom, that is so true because every picture does tell a story.” Enjoying every “story” with my kids.
I did PL in 2009. I did not do it in 2010. I WILL do it in 2011. I missed documenting the BIG and the little. Let that be a lesson to me and all…..even if you can’t buy the kit, make your own, but document your year…you will never regret it.
My most FAVORITE video. Thanks Becky! Love that wedding photo. You were just babies!
Good to know that I’m not the only one who gets all teared up watching your beautiful videos. Looking forward to some stress-free scrapping with PL and hopefully finishing an album that really documents all of those moments in life that i keep trying to hold on to.
Becky, you and your talent are a blessing and I’m happy to”know you” out here in cyberspace.
Thanks again.
Thanks for sharing, and yes I have tears too. I am doing it this year! I thought about it lots last year, wish I would have. This is my year. Thanks for making scrapbooking exciting and obtainable again!
Becky, I can never thank you enough for introducing me to the concept of Project Life and coming up with awesome kits to make our lives easier. I am on my second year of doing this, going three in 2011. My family loves looking through the photos in our albums. I have taken photos and documented on things/events I would otherwise have missed if not for Project Life. You rock, Becky!
Wow this brought Happy tears…
Thank-you,
Paola
Inspirational Becky! Many thanks…you make me ready to go for it again in 2011!
Fiona xx
WOW Becky is all I have to say.
What a great video and Ilove all your photos of the big and small moments, now Im inspired tog et this years project life finsihed(got a bit of journalling to catch up on photos are sorted) and ready for 2011 project life
Wow! I’m so inspired!
SUPER inspirational!
It definately is the little things that are the most fun to look back on.
Even now as grown adults, my siblings and me gather around mums photo albums and laugh so hard our sides hurt and It’s not the posed pics that provoke such a reaction; It’s the caught out shots of cubbies in cupboards, my brother sleeping in the end of my bed because he was scared, muddy gumboots lined up outside the backdoor…
Happy 2011
I have never scrapbooked before. I teach, and a co-worker of mine shared with me what she was doing with Project Life after I noticed her at school every other week snapping a picture. Sometimes it was of the kids in her class, other times it was something a little ‘odd’ to me, like sharpened pencils on the counter. I never got it. I never did. Today, I get it. Seeing your video brings tears to my eyes. My family doesn’t go many places. We don’t travel. We are content to sit at home and ‘veg’ as I call it. I didn’t think I had anything worth ‘documenting.’ But, I realize now that LIFE is the moments that I think are so ‘normal.’ This has truly inspired me to start documenting my everyday life. What a wonderful testiment to my child it would be for him to look back and see his family enjoying ‘the small stuff.’ Thank you so much, Becky, for showing me what it’s all about. I am grateful.
Wow! Thank you, Becky, I have just been reinspired to be more diligent about documenting the everyday moments of life. I think this is your best video yet, thank you for sharing. And thank you for sharing your talents and encouragement with us.
Beautiful. This actually inspires me to try again- I have 2010 and the original Project 365 from 2009 partially done. I love the new kits so I may have to break down and get one. I love the video, very heartfelt and your kids are way adorable. Every piece of my life is special and valuable, thanks for the reminder!!

Love. Love. Thank you for sharing your life with us… Inspires me so much… Thank you! ~ kim
Oh no! Any ideas how can I watch this video here in Finland? I´ve watched all the other videos and loved them all and I´m sad if I don´t see this last one because of some copyright thing
(
Wow Becky… thank you so much for giving us a glimpse into your life through your photos.
Sending many more blessings your way for an amazing 2011. Thanks for letting us follow through on your
journey through this wonderful life. Blessings, Rosa
very awesome ~ as always
This is the greatest video!
Thanks so much for sharing it with us….
I would like you to share more of your Laundry Room—-I would love for my laundry rtoom to look like that!
Oh I’m all teary-eyed! I bought your original project life but never did it (but used some of the gorgeous paper in my regular scrapbooks)…I will try my hardest this year to take one picture a day! FYI- just used that dry shampoo for the first time today and I LOVE IT! Happy New Year Becky and thank you so much for all you share
The best video yet!!!! Makes me get teary eyed and excited to start project life in 2011. Happy New Year!
beautiful. you are so talented and you “get” the most important things in life the moments that matter!! Thanks for your knowledge ideas and your example!
Wow Becky, you could sell Project Life just by showing your 12th video-Awesome!!!! I’m ordering today:)
WOW. I love it. My project life should be delivered today! I can’t wait to get started. You did an amazing job recording all the “stuff” that is so important and that makes us who we are…everyday. You so made me smile and tear up a little
Wow, just wow! Thanks for the motivation and a few tears, crying is goodfor the soul. My white box comes tomorrow, cannot wait to get started on 2011!
Your video made me cry. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank-you for such a beautiful video. I was diagnosed with MS a few months ago and wanted to catalog as much of our life as I can with the future so uncertain. You really just put it into a nutshell the things that make up life aren’t just the big moments but the everyday things that make our memories as well. I forgot that for a while. Thank-you for reminding me.
I love this gorgeous video! Thanks so much for reminding me that life is every little part of what we do, where we go, who we hang out with, who we love, our stuff-all of it makes up my life. No one else in the world has the exact combination of those things and that is exactly what I want to preserve for my children and all of the future generations. Thanks for making this process so easy and fun and beautiful! I am so excited to get my first pockets filled with pictures! Love ya!
Becky,
I absolutely loved this last video. While I enjoyed each of the 12 Videos of Christmas, this was by far my favorite and a great way to finish off the series.
I have to tell you that I sat watching the video and all three of my kids came to snuggle up beside me to watch. The music drew them in, but the beautiful photos kept them there. We watched it twice and my daughter wants to watch it again as soon as I finish posting this comment! The second time thru I read out loud your comments in the video…got choked up as I said the words. Wow, can’t believe I teared up again the second time!!
Anyway, I have always wanted to start scrapbooking, but I am one of those perfectionist types that has just never been able to pull the trigger. I have been thinking about doing Project Life with your kit, but wasn’t sure about how I wanted to do it. After watching your video, I am not only committed to doing it this year, but I have decided I will do it as intended…one photo each day! Thank you so much for inspiring me to document my families everyday moments…I can’t think of a better Christmas gift!
Thank you for this inspiration. I’m almost done with my 2010 project life album and my new one is on it’s way! I can’t imagine not doing it. It is such a blessing to have our year documented like this!
This was – by far – my favorite video yet! Thank you so much for sharing. I was already waiting with anxious anticipation for my Project Life kit to arrive… Now I am more excited than ever! Thanks Becky!
Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THAT was your BEST video yet!!! Thank you!
Thanks, Becky . . . beautiful video. And definitely sums up life and the value of documenting it. VERY inspiring!! Happy 2011!
Beautiful! I love your Project Life concept. Thanks for your inspiration Becky.
Thank you so much for this video…. My dad passed away on Tuesday and this video made me cry, but in a good way, remembering all of the good stuff with him. He was only 52 and I am the oldest child at 26, the youngest is only 15. I am so grateful for my life of scrapbooking and wanting to document our lives. I wouldn’t have had so many pictures of him if it weren’t for scrapbooking and you and my mom Diane got me started at a very young age. I haven’t gotten into the Project Life yet (very overwhelmed with husband losing his job and a new baby) but I have wanted to, my mom has been doing it. Thanks again for the video…. I needed it so much right now.
That was the best video yet and well worth the wait! I loved seeing all of the different types of photos that could be used for Project Life. I feel very inspired right now. Thank you so much for sharing. It was great to see your beautiful family again. They are so adorable. Many Blessings to the HIggins Clan in 2011.
Wow! Made me cry. I’ve done POTD/project 365/Project Life the last couple of years. I have one kit, and was thinking of taking a project life break while focusing on myself for a change (I was in only a handful of pictures last year.) You just reminded me the value of project life as a family capture. I may just need to get the other kit and do it too. It will be totally worth every penny and every second spent.
Hi Becky, that was just amazing…loved it. What is the song that you have playing?
Sorry Becky, found it there, should have looked harder, you always have this information on there…Thank you again from the bottom of my heart.This video really moved me.
So I have an old Project 365 that I started doing but stopped part way through taking the pics and never even set up my book. 2010 was an absolutely wretched year for me but I’m hoping that 2011 is a better one. I came across this website while googling ideas on how to set up my binder. Thank you for sharing a glimpse of your life with us…. I am very excited to started taking pics of the joyful/bummer moments of 2011. THANK YIOU THANK YIOU
Becky,
Any chance you can post a video without the music? Due to a copyright issue, Sony Music Entertainment has blocked the video for those of us in Europe – and we’d LOVE to see what everyone else is raving about!
Happy New Year!
I just got a chance to check your blog, the past two weeks have been crazy (I’m sure that’s no surprise). This video was just beautiful!! Thank you for Project Life, it’s the best thing I’ve ever done. I started New Years 2009 and in 2010 chose to focus on my 40th year (so I’m doing May 2010 to May 2011). I’ll start my third Project New Years Day, 2012. What an experience this has been, the kits are just beautiful (I bought “amber”) and the journey is priceless!! Wishing you and your beautiful family a very happy and healthy 2011!!
Hi Becky!
Finally am catching up on my blogs and I loved your last video, beautifully done! And, I love that song but never knew the name so now I can d’load it thanks!! I’m going to do project life for the first time ! Am waiting anxiously for my Amber book to come…I am almost done with my December Daily and loved doing it so much I can’t wait to add Project Life for the rest of the year!
Thanks for the inspiration and the tools to fulfill it…have a super year!!
