We did the whole shot glass thing too for a while, but we did use them. The different cities/countries did help everybody remember their shot glass for the night... that’s till you had one too many. After we moved, we stopped collecting cause we got rid of our original collection.

Don’t know if it’s cause I’m horrible at taking pictures and videos... but I get slightly annoyed by everyone taking pictures all the time at every event/occasion. I don’t think you are getting the full experience if you are constantly trying to get the “perfect” picture/video. I get it... I have a horrible memory too, so I don’t remember things either til they pop up on Timehop. But I do remember those real special meals/dishes/occasions.

As we get older, we will need to come up with a way to remember these real special experiences. Let me know what you come up with. Thinking about restarting our blog/journal... just for ourselves.

We take photos and video almost daily. But I hate posing or asking family to pose so they're usually action shots. The photos automatically cycle on our TV as a screensaver, both old and new, and we review videos with our 2 y/o when she's upset so she can remember good times.
