My Picaboo Book arrived!

As I said yesterday, (I said a lot yesterday) I was waiting on my book that I made from our trip to San Diego. I have been wanting to do a book for forever, but let's face it, I am great at getting started but lousy at completing a lot of things, actually more than I am comfortable with, which has been a life long battle with myself.

But when I do complete something, it is usually fantastic, even if I say so myself.

I found out about these books a few years ago when we are on vacation in Cozumel. Met a really nice couple and they were telling me how they put their scuba diving adventures into a book. I thought scapbooking, but they said no, an actual book, with front cover and spine. No way! Well I got home and quickly looked up the sites they recommended. I have them all, Snapfish, Picaboo, Adorama Pix and a few others that I don't remember.

So, again, the start is good with them all, but sit after a while. I have been working and reworking on my trip to Europe for two years and there it sits.

But when The Pioneer Woman put in for a giveaway for Snapfish, I thought why not, I am going to San Diego and what a perfect opportunity to get off my butt and do this!

So, I came home and got onto Snapfish and started the book and ACTUALLY finised it! Now, comes the heartache, the server was way overloaded it and it would not accept it! For days I tried, until I got aggravated with it and went over to Picaboo and did a book over there and FINISHED it! I EVEN ordered it and paid for it, too!

I like Picaboo better than Snapfish because of the different backgrounds, cover of the book, and the different number and placement of photos.

So, here ya go, these are just a few pictures of my first book! What a priceless gift to give someone. If you need some help, I'll be more than happy to assist you anyway I can.

Mother's Day is Sunday, so it is too late, but what about Father's Day? Graduation? Fourth of July get together? A family reunion? A birthday? A girls get together? A bride's journey from her engagement to her wedding day? See what I mean, you have a camera, you have a book!

Let me know what you think, I love this!

Excuse the nails, oops! Construction NEVER ends at my house
