My Family book idea

I had a groupon blurb credit I needed to use before it expired and so I came up with this little number.
It’s a book for Boston, to help him remember all of his family.  We have a lot of family who live out of state so this book has been so helpful!  When everyone came to visit for Christmas he totally knew who they were and everything.  He loves his book!
I am posting it in hopes someone can be inspired to make their own little family book for their kids!

So it starts off with Brian’s family

Then dives into the individuals with a little blurb on who they are and how they’re related

Marriage meshes our families together… blah blah!

And then you have my family

Anyway.  I got it printed at Booksmart: Blurb.  I LOVE the company and print one book per year that has basically all my favorite pictures I took throughout.  The layouts are so easy to make and you have freedom to do whatever you want.  You can even import your cutsey digital scrapbook papers!  This is such a great way to journal all those pictures and it’s quick and easy.  I still love to scrapbook, but I can only handle two layouts per year.  I’m too OCD and there are too many options!  This is just easy for me and it’s something that I can realistically accomplish.

Enjoy!

  1. Blurb books are awesome! You did a wonderful job! I love your wedding picture in front of the temple in the evening! I never see evening pictures there–it’s beautiful!

  2. Hi! I’m from Brazil, and I found your blog on Pinterest and I am mormon too!!! What a small world, even this online world! Couple of my cousins got married at SLC Temple as well few years ago! You’re beautiful! Love you blog!
    Kisses, or in portuguese: beijos!

  3. Hyla, I should have added a year- didn’t even think about it! Eh, I’ll probably make another one… in like five years! ha ha! Mallary- I LOVE YOU! Thanks guys, it was a super fun project!

  4. Abby, this is such a cute idea! I actually got chills thinking about how your kids are going to know their whole family and something about each person.

  5. This is really awesome! But I am wondering what you will do when there are additions to the family, just remake the book? Did you add a year to this one?
