book 'em!
In November, the Oprah show and snapfish.com collaborated to give away free photo books! I took advantage of the offer and had one made up. It is a fabulous product and it's so fun to see my pictures in print - I never print pictures! I used pictures from the year and added little quotes throughout. The book is 20 pages with a hard cover and most photo printing places offer them now for around $30, I think. I definitely recommend giving photo books a try! So much easier and faster than scrapbooking. Here's a little peek at the one I made...

oh how did I miss that Oprah? such a great book. I never print pictures either... isnt that strange? I used to print so much when I was using my point and shoot... im a dork your book looks awesome
Love the book! I made one for Sam for his birthday about all the things he did in the year before. It turned out cute. I think I'll do it for all of the kids for their birthdays!
Heather, you crack me up! Sherri, great idea to do one for each kid. I'm kinda tempted to do these as baby books since I have sucked at them (and don't even have them for the twins!)
Love your book Jen.. I made one through with the Oprah promotion. I didn't get creative with the background pages... just used black and white but still turned out cute. My mom was here when I got it delivered, she tried to steal it so I am not going to make her one for her bday. :) I think they are great gifts...
PS... love your last page, that is one of my favorite sayings ever.

Only a photographer takes pictures of her photos ;) Just kidding! If my pictures looked as good as yours, I would invest in a photo book!
