			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have this long list in my journal entitled, <em>Things to do pre-jack</em>.  Now, I don&#8217;t know how long we&#8217;ve got until he&#8217;s here, but I&#8217;ve been making these things a priority.  Celebration is in order because I have been able to cross off number 8: wedding scrapbooks.  (Wedding photo albums are still on the list!).  I have posted my favorite pages from them on <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/smilinglaura/sets/72157614308740429/">flickr</a>, but these are my super-ultimate-favorites:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/smilinglaura/3306044047/" title="wedding planning book by xoelle, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3402/3306044047_cefeaf132a.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="wedding planning book" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/smilinglaura/3306040203/" title="wedding planning book by xoelle, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3534/3306040203_2c043dc6ff.jpg" width="500" height="303" alt="wedding planning book" /></a><br />
From our wedding planning book.  We started daydreaming/planning in it when we got engaged, and used it our entire engagement to manage guest lists, plan reception menus, design wedding attire, organize calendars and family phone numbers, and just basically keep everything in one place.  It&#8217;s now this beautiful record of the planning  of our wedding, including the ideas that we didn&#8217;t use!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/smilinglaura/3306048097/" title="wedding card album by xoelle, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3547/3306048097_e3ec9fa77b.jpg" width="500" height="424" alt="wedding card album" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/smilinglaura/3306045213/" title="wedding card album by xoelle, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3530/3306045213_27a8327cca.jpg" width="500" height="425" alt="wedding card album" /></a><br />
Our wedding card album.  I got this fabulous handmade album from <a href="http://flyleafbooks.blogspot.com">flyleafbooks</a>, intending to use it as a wedding album&#8230;but it&#8217;s perfect for this.  All of our well-wishes together!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/smilinglaura/3306050395/" title="bachelorette party scrapbook by xoelle, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3398/3306050395_e882d91a8c.jpg" width="500" height="444" alt="bachelorette party scrapbook" /></a></p>

My bachelorette party scrapbook!  I created this one using the wrapping and boxes from the presents I received.  The cover is from a Victoria&#8217;s Secret box (from my sister, she&#8217;s the best!).  I used my binding machine at home to keep it all together.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/smilinglaura/3306892642/" title="honeymoon scrapbook- Epcot! by xoelle, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3660/3306892642_a9e181ce5d.jpg" width="500" height="492" alt="honeymoon scrapbook- Epcot!" /></a></p>

<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/smilinglaura/3306891422/" title="honeymoon scrapbook- Cinderella's castle by xoelle, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3590/3306891422_5a401a6f1e.jpg" width="500" height="458" alt="honeymoon scrapbook- Cinderella's castle" /></a><br />
Pages from our honeymoon scrapbook.  This one took me two full nights of scrapbooking- probably a total of 15 hours.  Yikes!</p>
