I am one of those moms who brings a camera everywhere just in case the perfect picture opportunity arises. I take thousands of pictures every year, documenting everything that happens to our little family. This year Josiah turned 5 and started kindergarten while Liam, on the other hand, turned 3 and can recite the entire alphabet! They hit so many milestones and grow up so quickly that I don't want to miss a minute or forget them. Unfortunately, my mom and dad, or Granny and pop as the kids know them, lives three-hundred miles away from us and doesn't get to visit much. However, I have found the perfect gift for them this holiday season: a photo book from Shutterfly!

This is such a great way to show, step by step, how much the children have grown and all the fun experiences they've had this year. We have given photo books for other occasions in the past and they are always a hit with grandparents. My mom-in-law sits hers out on her coffee table to show off her grandbabies. I know my parents will enjoy looking at all of the pictures and it will make a perfect keepsake, something they can cherish for many years to come.
Will you give photo books to family and/or friends this holiday season? I love Shutterfly's photo book program. It's easy and there are so many options for backgrounds, themes and styles. You can customize the book just the way you want it. The process is not only easy, but fun! I love making photo books.

Seeing the "grandma" open the photo book is a great memory of watching my mother-in-law look through books of photos of her grandchildren that she truly cherishes! These books make SUCH great gifts! :)
I have multiple favorite styles from the photobooks on shutterfly.com--I like the classic baby boy, bright and bold, and our family story books the most! It would depend on what occasion/person I was ordering for :)

We just moved away from family (and grandma) this past year so that really hits home for me :-(
I like the baby's firsts book
I lost my grandma a couple months ago whom I wasn't super close to but this reminded me of going to her house when I was little and how happy she always was to see me.
