Day in the Life October 2016: Photos

Hi friends!

I’m a bit behind, but today I thought I’d  share my Day in the Life (October 27th) photos with you all here. If you follow me on Instagram (@kristina.proffitt) then you’ve seen these, but I like to get it all documented here on the good ol’ blog as well, so I’m going to share them today and then am hoping to finish up my pages this Thanksgiving weekend when I’m going to do A LOT of documenting and creating. I’m looking forward to it!

Ok, so the day of documentation was a different kind of day for me because we were actually coming back that day from a little family getaway to the Smoky Mountains, so some of it was us traveling, but I didn’t care. I wanted to document the day exactly as it was and so boring or not – I got it all documented and actually really loved what I captured at the end of the day. I decided to go with the whole take a photo EVERY hour during the day – it really simplifies the whole documentation process for me and is doable. I’ll probably continue to document that way every time I do Day in the Life. I love it!

7:21 am | Packing up our hotel room and leaving the beautiful Smoky Mountains this morning. The past two days have been good for the soul. Ready to be home though.

8:02 am | See ya, Smokies (view from the hotel balcony).

9:13 am | Michael went into a Starbucks for me to see if they had any Smoky Mountain “You Are Here” mugs that I collect. Not even sure they make them, but wanted to look just in case. No luck. Snapped this photo of the kids in the back while we waited.

10:07 am | Stopping for some gas in Harriman, TN.

11:18 am | Had Michael take this photo for me as we were driving down the road. Almost home.

12:52 pm | Made it home and picked up Maggie from her vet’s office where were was boarded. She was happy to see me.

1:36 pm | Brought home a little souvenir from the mountains of East Tennessee. I love a good Dr. Enuf every now and then. Opened it up and catching up on emails. Felt good to unplug a bit.

2:50 pm | Washing blankets and clothes from our trip.

3:42 pm | Jack is helping Michael in the backyard pick up some straw that covered the new grass that we are growing. They are so cute together.

4:17 pm | Michael just got back from Target and bought me a new pizza pan. I must be getting old because I was super excited about it!

5:28 pm | My favorite after dinner dessert right now – Yasso Greek Yogurt bars in chocolate chip cookie dough!

6:41 pm | At Target and seriously loving these succulents. I know I can’t kill these!

7:12 pm | Hitting up the Kroger for a few things: raw cheddar cheese, kombucha and a couple of organic frozen pizzas for our pizza pumpkin carving party tomorrow night.

8:18 pm | I look a hot mess and am exhausted, but when my sons tell me to take a picture with them, I get in the dang photo and you know what? This is probably my most favorite photo of the day despite how imperfect it is. :)

9:12 pm | About to tuck Caylin into bed and she had to show me her Beanie Boo collection one more time (she recently added two to her collection).

So, those are my photos from my Day in the Life documentation back on October 27th! Just goes to show you that no matter what you are doing in a day – there are things to document and you might be surprised and capture some real gems! I just love this project. If you want to know more about Day in the Life, you can check out Ali’s website HERE. You can also search Day in the Life on my blog here and see what I’ve done in the past.

I’ll share the pages I create soon! Gotta play some major catch up this holiday weekend! ;)

XO!
