Mother's Day

For Mother's Day I made one of those photo books online.  I did this last year too.  I really like them. I take photos from the last year of our lives and put them in the book.  Each person in the family has a page just of them with lots of photos and a small list of highlights from the last year, like their grade in school, a lost tooth, or a part in the school play. After everyone's personal page I add a few pages of pictures of everyone. Some pages have themes like dance or a baseball game and others just have pictures of all the kids on different vacations.  I give a copy to my mother and my mother-in-law.  I then buy an extra copy for myself and put it on our bookshelf at home.  I use Wal-mart's photo book website, but there are lots of other photo books out there.  I don't think Wal-mart is the best, but it is simple, in my price range, and it turns out great. Both my mothers love it and I love that I have a simple photo book capturing things from the past year.  The kids love looking at them too. I can't wait until we have a bigger collection years from now.
