I'm Back

Okay so I will be honest here.  I went through a pretty dark year last year.  I got into a dark place in addition to burning myself out trying to do too much at once.  I kind of shut myself off from everything that I could.  I am happy to say that I was able to pull myself mostly out of my hole.  I am still a bit overwhelmed with life but I am finally getting the itch to start crafting again.  Kind of take time to do something I enjoy so I can try to handle the overwhelming stuff a little better.  So remember I said I cut a ton of piecing sets a couple of years ago so I had something to do during all my down time on our vacation.  I decided to finally put those together.  That is how I am easing myself back into things.  Oh except for the most exciting news of all that I finished my very first photo album.  It is my oldest son 0-3 months.  Silly me I thought it would be his first year, but I have way too many pictures!  Anyway it is finally done.  I just need a few journaling spots and apparently I need to go re-stick some things.  I was trying a lot of different adhesives in the beginning and most of the glue squares and tape runners didn't work.  Anyway so now I am organizing pictures on my computer that I want to print out and prepping for the next album.  I am also putting together the sets that I cut so long ago.  I actually find the piecing relaxing (though time consuming) the cutting, not so much.   A couple of these I did while I was there and most of them I just finished.  Can you tell what pictures I plan to work with?
