Organising memorabilia

I'm doing our family tree and my Dad had loads of newspapper cuttings from his days as a musician, along with photographs. I've kept them all in a ring binder inside plastic wallets and arranged them in some sort of order with details about them written on the same page.
I decorated the front page with a lot of musical scrapbook paper and images.
Did much the same with the rest of the family history stuff .
I've yet to sort out my own photos in some sort order, holidays, places we've lived and so on.
I do love to have my photos in an album of some kind but I've so many now, trying to find anything specific is a nightmare.
