Sometimes, we wish a day would last forever, and that we never forget those days. Some examples of treasured memories are your bridal shower, your wedding, and many others, to be sure. I have wedding books that I keep to help my relive those special days over and over again. The photo wedding book of my wedding shower that my sister and my loved ones put on for me contains highlighting moments in it. It was a fantastic night, and there are plenty of photographs to prove it. I have shots of all the crazy stuff we got into that night, along with some of how gorgeous-looking the décor of the party was. The pictures we have really show just how outrageous that night became . Some of the exotic male dancers we saw posed for a couple of shots. They knew how to work the crowd. That is definitely a night I’ll never forget, that was the first and only time I’ve ever been to a place that had male dancers. They may not have been in Playgirl, but they were definitely worth seeing.
I though the perfect thing to keep my moments was a memory book. There were an awful lot of photos to fill the pages. Actually, I had to get two of them to hold all of the pics. I ran out of space in the albums before the pictures were all filed. On certain pages in one of the picture album books were places for the guests we invited to write their names down. We had my first initial and my husband’s first initial flanking the initial of our last name on the cover of our personalized memory books. The ribbon made of satin and the special fabric made the album have a very classy touch. There are also refill pages available if needed, and we certainly need them.
I made sure that I had books to hold all my memories of every important event in my life so far. I don’t throw out my keepsake memory books, so I’m sure I’ll accumulate more and more. Right now, I have my bachelorette book, my wedding book and my baby shower books. I have a little girl that’s turning three next week and a little baby boy that is only one year old. Since we knew what we were having each time, I was able to order a pink book for her and a blue one for him. Their first step and christening and so forth are in the books. I also keep their birth certificates and footprints in their baby memory books along with several pictures of their beautiful little faces. I also put an invitation in the shower books and wedding photo book too. There are picture galleries with fewer photos than I have in my closet.
I intend to keep the memories of those wonderful days alive for the rest of my life, and I plan on keeping my memory books in the closet, no matter how much my husband keeps complaining. Of course, now I’m going to be shooting home videos on a camcorder that I recently purchased, so I’m focusing on making space on some shelving in the living room. With all the videos I plan to record and all the picture albums and memory books I’ve acquired, not to mention all that I intend to aquire, I’ll probably have to make more room in other closets around the house. Well, a person needs to be able to go back in time every now and then, that’s just a part of who I am. These years ahead are really important to a mom and I don’t want to miss out on one minute of it.
