We hope you all enjoyed wonderful Christmas celebrations with family and friends. I know we both enjoyed spending time with our families and celebrating Christmas.
The ending of the old year and the beginning of the new always brings to mind the projects I want to work on this year. I am looking forward to putting together my yearly book that has all our favorite photos and shares our life in 2011. It's always a big project, but one I look forward to very much. I am also excited to start a graduation photo book project for a client. Her daughter has some great ideas for books she would like compiled to celebrate her graduation and I can't wait to get started for them!
We look forward to creating more photo book collections for you this year. We are also excited to hear feedback on how your gifts were received.
Have a wonderful end of 2011 and we hope your 2012 is full of wonderful memories as well!

The Michael Family Photo Book
Thank you, Julie, for letting me put together this book for you. I would recommend ordering this with a softcover due to the size of the book and if you know of other family members wanting to order the book as well, consider ordering them all at once to save on shipping and handling costs. Enjoy your book!

iPad and iPhone Digital Copies
If you have an iPhone or an iPad, there is an exciting new option for enjoying your photo books!
Right now if you purchase a printed copy of your book you may also purchase a digital copy for your iPad or iPhone for a very low price. I've tried it out on a few different books myself and am delighted with how easy it is to be able to open my photo books on my iPhone.
Blurb is also in the process of making your photo books available for purchase by others in the iBook store. This option will hopefully be available soon. But it's another great way to share your photo books.
I am hopeful that Blurb will be extending the digital book copies to the rest of the digital markets and not just Apple but for the time being it is such a delight to have a digital copy as well as the hard print copy of my books!

Enjoying the Fall
I had a chance to get outside with my boys this weekend and take some beautiful pictures - what a wonderful time of year! I'm also working on putting together a PeeWee football season photo book for my son to remember his first year of football. One more game coming up this weekend, and then we start on basketball next week! No rest for us! I'll be sure to add the football book to the blog next week when I get it done - I can't wait to give it to him!

Picture Hunt
The weekend is practically here! Between watching those impotant football games (go Hawkeyes!), getting some winter-prep yardwork done, and enjoying the GORGEOUS weather maybe you'll have a chunk of time to pull together those photos that you have been thinking about getting put into a book. I know several of you have ideas for books you might want to have created.
So happy photo hunting! We look forward to hearing from you soon!
