DONE!

Yes, they are just about done! I have been working on the kids scrapbooks forever. I still have a few things to fix here and there and a few pages to put together, but to me, they are DONE! I have Jake's life complete up until his 3rd birthday, and Kenzie's until 18 months. They are both pretty much the same day anyway! From that point on, I am planning on using Shutterfly and Snapfish for their actual "memory books" and still scrapbook the simple things like school pictures, projects, ticket stubs, cards or letters they receive, etc. I don't think I could go totally to digital ~ this is theraputic for me! I just don't think I will ever be able to stay caught up if I keep doing it this way, and the kids would end up with a million scrapbooks by the time they left for college.(Yes, I plan on doing it that long. My mom did it for me and I don't know any different!) I also have other projects I want to start. I also just got our camera software installed on the laptop after a YEAR of having it. I have been using this old Kodak version and it was terrible. So now I will have a much better way of organizing pictures. I am so happy! Relieved, too!

Glad you are not bowing out entirely! Who would stay up 'til 3:00 am with me watching stupid movies and giggling about stuff?

It is a huge accomplishment to be as caught up as you are! Be proud of those books...your kids will treasure them!
