I'm so far behind on my posts, but I'm determined to keep up with what's been going on and am hoping to fit everything in before the end of the year. Why? you ask?!
For my birthday, my best friend Steph took all my posts from the first year I started blogging and had it printed into a blog book. It is amazing! She used blog2print and had it professionally done. Okay, so I got to help out a little, but it was so easy for both of us!! All you have to do is type in your blog website address, choose what posts you want in the book based on dates, individual posts, or both, customize it if you wish, make a few selections for the outside cover and VOILA! Simple! I think I did it within an hour. I was so excited about it, as soon as I sent her the link to my completed book, I started working on the next year of my blogging in 2010, made another book, called my mom and asked her to get the 2nd one for me for Christmas! Hopefully Santa was tech savy and it's under the tree!?!??!
I love having all those treasured memories in a book and reading some of the posts brought back many forgotten memories and experiences. The book is awesome and I'm so grateful Steph thought of the idea! There are tons of pictures showing Gavin from 6 months to his first birthday that it's almost like having a yearbook. We even have pictures of Gavin and Cade that we now have forever. I love that this book gives a more personal view of what was happening in our lives versus where a scrapbook would just be snapshots.
Anyways, I write all of that to say I'm very eager to try and keep up with the blog even more, to record life experiences as they happen, so we can continue printing blog books of each year of our lives. I'm excited to imagine what we'll think about this season in our lives and the memories we get to reminiscence on in 10 years. Should be fun and interesting!
So go check it out.. try it. Don't let it overwhelm you! It's a great keepsaker and something you'll appreciate having years down the road!
