We go through a lot of days that we’d like to be memorable forever in our lifetimes. If only the bridal or baby showers that family and friends gave you , or your wedding day could go on forever. I keep these memories alive with my wedding memory books, which are some of my most treasured possessions. I have one photo wedding book devoted to the bridal shower my sister put on for me with some of my friends. It was a fascinating night, and there are plenty of photographs to prove it. I’ve got pictures of the precious decorations they had for my party and all the places we went that night, and all the fun things we did. The camera doesn’t lie: we had a blast. Some of the exotic male dancers we saw posed for a couple of shots. They didn’t have any trouble holding our attention. That was my only foray into the world of exocitc dancers, and it was memorable. They weren’t the Chippendales, but they were really great to watch.
I got some wedding memory book along with everything else I was buying when I was preparing for our wedding. We had no shortage of pictures to put in it. As a matter of fact, we had so many that I bought a pair of them, and it turns out that we needed both of them. Once the books were full, I still had pictures left over. One album had a space for our wedding guests to write their names in it. They were both lovely personalized memory books with my first initial on the left, the initial of our last name, and on the right my husbands first initial. The ribbon made of satin and the special fabric made the album have a very classy touch. We had to get more pages for them, and they offer a supply for that too.
A lot of life-changing events are recorded in my photo albums. The number of keepsake memory books I have will only go up since I hang on to them all. Baby shower books, a wedding book, and the one from that bachelorette party are the ones that I have currently. I have a little girl that’s turning three next week and a little baby boy that is only one year old. We got her a pink book and him a blue one because we decided to find out ahead of time what sex they’d be. 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.
In spite of my husband’s frequent grumbling, I will keep those albums in my closet, because they are mementos of days that were special to me. With the new video camera I just bought, it’s going to be a little different, because now I have to clear room on some shelves in the den for the videos I’ll be making. So now, with the albums we have and the ones we will probably have in the future and all the videos I plan to record, I’m probably going to need a lot more room than originally planned. Hey, a girls got to have her memories to look back on. These are the most precious years in a mothers life and I’m not letting anything get by me.
