BPC Day 2: Wonder

For "today's" (i.e. Aug 16th's) Big Picture Class Challenge, we were encouraged to do a page based on the word Wonder. Further, we were told to pick one of the following for our own musings:

-Learn something new. What's something you've been wondering about? Google it, and record your findings on your page.
-Put it back on the radar. Marvel at an everyday occurrence with surprise and amazement, as though you were seeing it for the first time…and then document it.
-Embrace your inner superhero. Are you a wonder in the kitchen? At karaoke night? At your craft table? We all have at least one superpower! Document what it is that brings out your inner Wonder Woman.

I embraced my inner superhero: Wonder Woman! (Get it?!) Seriously though, I'm a big-picture, right-brained woman who finds happiness in the little things of life. My super power might be the ability to find joy. (I certainly can't fly!)

Ever since my wedding and since the best man's speech, whenever I hear the word wonder, I think of that day and my husband. The journalling tells the story. The picture tells the story too. (A friend tells me this picture perfectly sums up my husband's and my relationship. I just think it's awesome.)

This page was made digitally. I wanted to keep it simple so you can really focus on the fun. After all, life should be full of fun.

A couple of fun things of note:
1. There was a fantastic tufted, navy sofa in the pastor's study, so we borrowed it for a few minutes. If I ever find it's twin, I'm buying it on the spot--no questions asked.
2. The stuffed animal's name is Chumba and is a Kelley family tradition: each year one of the 5 kids takes him and documents all of his activities. He's a very well-traveled gorilla. Long story short, 2010 was our year and Chumba made it to the wedding.
