Wow, can you guys believe that an entire MONTH of 2013 is already behind us?! I can’t believe how fast time goes by. Does that mean I’m getting older?

The Photo a Day project has been a GREAT way for me to capture and document/journal my every day life through pictures. I even got them printed into a book for the months of November (our first challenge) and December. And I plan on printing January’s too. It makes me feel good because I feel like I’m journaling (which I am admittedly not the best at with paper and pen) – but in a fun way that I enjoy – through pictures!

Are you ready for FEBRUARY’S challenge list? This is a couple of days early, but it will give you some time to start thinking (if you’re a plan-ahead-type).

For those who have been participating and sharing on instagram with the hashtag #hiyapapayaphotoaday, we have had so much fun looking through your images. For those of you new to this, here’s how it works: Each day there will be a new theme. Interpret the word or theme however you’d like. You don’t have to have a fancy camera to do this project. I use my iphone. It’s just a chance to get everyone out taking pictures!

You can post and share your image wherever you’d like – your Facebook page, your blog, Twitter, Instagram, etc. If you do post them to Instagram with your iphone or ipad, be sure to tag them #hiyapapayaphotoaday. That way others can go look and see your photos! (Through this project, I have come to LOVE Instagram! It’s been SO MUCH FUN seeing everyone’s #hiyapapayaphotoaday hashtagged posts there! I’ve even made a couple of new friends!) Don’t stress if you miss a day – the point of this is to have FUN! Just try and jump in the next day.

This isn’t a contest. Just a fun way to get everyone out and capturing their world. It’s so fun and makes you more aware and really stretches your creative imagination.

I can’t wait to see what you all come up with during this “month of love!” XOXO
