Mirror, Mirror
My blog is published! My friend, Andria, told me about a website that converts your blog into book form. The day she told me I went home and uploaded years 2006 and 2007 (it will only hold so many pictures) and immediately got started. I had so much fun doing this....it was my crack for 2 weeks straight! I worked on it at nap time and after the kids were in bed at night. I completely ignored Spencer while I worked on it because I was totally engrossed! You can add, delete, arrange, change, etc. each and every entry to your liking so I played around with everything and tried to get it exactly how I wanted it. I didn't realize how small the book was going to be until I had it in hand and it made the pictures super small inside so the next years I do (I will do all of them) I will make the book much larger. Often the program would hesitate on me or lock up a few times, which was frustrating and I made a few typos (yes I spellchecked) but they were not caught before I published it but all in all, I think I did a good job for my first time around! I am very proud of it and will gladly show it off to all who want to see it! ha! Ella Ann loves it because the years 2006-2007 are all about HER! We read it at night before bed and she thoroughly enjoys it. It was fun to look back and read about our lives a couple of years ago and seeing older pictures of Ella Ann. I can't wait to do 2008 and eventually '09!
Here is a peek inside.....
