My parents have been asking for wedding pictures for well over a year & unfortunately, I just haven't taken the time to make them copies. A friend of mine works for Creative Memories and I purchased some digital scrapbooking software from her last fall, figuring I'd make them an album. I love how scrapbooks look, but I don't have the time or the patience to put one together-- the software gives me cute layouts and I just drop in digital pictures, then have the pages printed once I'm done.
So, to tell my parents, I decided to make a scrapbook of our wedding pics, with a nice surprise at the end. I finished the pages last night and they're being printed today. I'll present the album to my mom when I see her tomorrow afternoon! (From there, I'll ask her if I should go home with her on Sunday to tell my dad in person, or if we should just call him.) We have a fantastic girls' weekend planned in Greenville, SC with tickets to Wicked on Sat night!
I apologize to anyone who has seen some of these before-- I posted some of the pages back in October on our first anniversary!
