Blogging about the Blog!

I don't have a lot of hobbies. Most of my time is taken up with working full-time and being a full-time mommy and wife. But the one thing I really enjoy doing and that I try and make time for is blogging. I like being able to share what's going on in our lives with my friends and family who don't live in Memphis, but most of all, I want to document as much as I can so that Case and Emery can look back one day read all about their lives (from my perspective).

It's basically electronic scrapbooking, which is perfect for me because I don't have the creativity or the patience to keep up with a "real" scrapbook. However, I'm the kind of person that prefers to look at pictures and read stories in hard copy format rather than online. So....I've found the next best thing to a "real" scrapbook. Blurb.com. Thanks, Rachael for blogging about it! It's a software you download that assists you in turning your blog into a bound book. It took me a couple of days over the holidays to get 2008 done, but it arrived in the mail last week and I love it!! It turned out so great. I still have 2009 and 2010 to do (not sure when I'll get the time), but I plan to make a hard-bound book out of each year.
