Yes, I am planning on rotating a page of this with a line or two of the wedding sampler I am working on, so that should break it up a bit

I like the idea of thinking of it as a marathon

Oh my goodness, Faith, you would not believe how many castles I have been in! When we lived in Scotland, my parents drove us ALL OVER to see all the castles, ruins, cathedrals, etc! After we lived in Scotland, we lived in Germany for 2 years and we did the same thing there. They really wanted to make the most of our time overseas, it was such a great experience! Each time we visited a new place, my parents would buy me a postcard so I have an extensive postcard collection of all the places we went.

what a project g'luck

I was able to get a lot done this weekend I finished the first page and half of the second page. After I finish page 2 I'm going to switch off and work on the wedding sampler a little. Here is a progress pic of what is done so far:
