That sounds like a wonderful scrapbook. I don't know if you have kids yet, but a good way to collect things for scrapbooks is to have a basket or box for memorabilia. I have an Indian basket in my living room that I use to save movie ticket stubs, and cards and whatever, and then when I need little bits and pieces to accent a picture- I can pick and choose from what I have- and of course make little notes about the things. Good scrapbooking also has a strong journal component (imo).

Wow! That sounds like a great scrapbook!
I have a small wooden box that contains a lot of my favourite bits and pieces from the past -- old letters from friends going right back to when I was around twelve. Lots of old photos. Letters from my favourite art teacher from high school who wrote to me after I moved to a new city. Once in awhile I get feeling nostalgic and get the box out and read through a bunch of the letters and look at the photos. Unfortunately, quite a lot of my friends have crossed over, which is a bit sad to think of as I read their letters which seem as though they could have been written yesterday. Anyhow, I sure am glad I never tossed any of these little things out.
