Documenting Our Life Together.

Kryss and I have been together for almost six months now. In that time, we've accumulated a ton of notes, photographs and keepsakes together and I need somewhere to put them all. I really enjoy the idea of Project Life, but I don't know if I could keep up with it. I don't want to have a weekly deadline, I'd rather keep track of adventures and trips we take because most are completely out of the blue and our day doesn't usually start with trips climbing into abandoned buildings.
Since we've been taking trips together, we usually try to take little souvenirs from these adventures, whether it's a railroad spike from a railroad no longer in use or a piece of brick from a vacant home. I wouldn't take anything illegal or anything that would ruin the integrity of a place, just little things to keep so I can remember those times we've had together.
We have little notes we have left each other in the mornings or when one of us gets home from work. Whether it's just a silly "I love you" note or a detailed letter that includes adorable pictures and sayings, I want to keep them all. I want to be able to sit down decades from now scanning through these pages and falling in love with him all over again. In such a short time together, we've had so many adventures and I really like looking back at every single one.
I'm so envious of everyone that can properly document their lives and keep them in order with these scrapbooks. They're beautiful to look back to and just seeing others fills me with joy and a love for the memories.
I've realized lately that I am completely changing my attitude on a lot in life. I'm tired of technology and everyone being so enamored with social media. Yes.. I tweet, Instagram and blog.. but I am also trying to take a few steps back and soak up the good moments in life and the good times I experience. Whether it's a really good cup of coffee in the morning or laying in bed with Kryss at night watching a show on TV. They're so mundane but when you look back at things, they're some of my favorite memories. I'm not a huge party-goer, I'd rather a nice night in with someone I really care about. I'm not a fan of drinking or doing much of anything my peers are doing these days. When I look back, I don't want to have the thought "Man, I wish I didn't party so hard" or "Wow, I did a lot of stupid shit when I was younger." I'd rather have the nostalgic feeling that makes me wish I could experience those small, fleeting moments all over again.
So over the next few weeks, I'm going to try to get these adventures documented properly and placed in order. I'm going to keep little notes and footnotes on the sides and document the emotions and details.
I can't wait to have some of my most favorite times together in this one small book that will contain so many memories and feelings.
