I have a new 'find' that I want to recommend. After 9 months of blogging, I have started to wonder how I might capture all this information as sort of a family journal each year. I start wondering what would happen if, God forbid, Google/Blogger crashed. There would be no information!
Add this to the fact that I am, in no way - shape - or form - a scrapbooker! (like my sister Leah) and I don't immediately print and catalog digital photos (like my sister Leslie). [BTW Leslie, I promise to get copies of those Christmas photos to you soon!] I really wish I could be a little more like either of them when it comes to capturing family memories. However, I am not. So, the next best thing is Blogging. After that, I need a hard copy to keep.
I have downloaded the software that is on the Blurb site, and have uploaded my blog (they do it for you!) from 2007. I have also uploaded my blog from 2008 and have already started this year's book. There are tons of page layout options, and it is taking me a little longer because I am substituting hi-res photos for the ones on the blog (you don't have to though).
Anyway, I have several friends that have just started blogging - do this before you get too far! I'm so excited about seeing the blog in hardbound form! Click the link below for more info.
BLURB!

I downloaded it now. Thanks for the tip. How cool to have an actual book about your own family. By the way I love the new photo of your family on the blog.
I know! I am so excited about having an annual family journal/scrapbook.
Thank you! Lindsey took the photo - she is really good. Have you looked at Linden Tree Photography site? I have a link at the bottom of mine.
