For those of you who follow me on Instagram (or Facebook since I also post my Instagram posts to there) this post is going to be really redundant. I print out my blog posts and put them in a binder as kind of a family journal/scrapbook, and I want to be sure that some of my Instagram photos are included in that as well. I include some in blog posts that were about them, and sometimes I take a picture with my real camera at the same time that I take a picture with my phone, so I'll try to leave any photos that have already been posted out of this. Hopefully my memory serves me correctly. Here we go...
