VLOG; What I'm thankful for

Who is this person? I am again linking up with House of Rose for her weekly Stop and Smell the Roses Vlog link-up, where you stop... and smell the roses. And tell us what you're thankful for this week!


Disclaimers
-Four minutes long.... I'm a talker.
-I say um too many times to count, and too embarrassed to admit.
-I again look like I'm on fire on my still shot.
-Check out my amazing editing skills.... improving by the week..... I'll be a movie maker before you know it.
-I get distracted easily. Wouldn't you?
-Which in turn... I forget where I am at... easily.



www.walgreens.com- have made 10+ books from here
www.blurb.com- in the making

800-1000+ pictures per book
150 pages
8.5 x11 hardback
awesome quality.

Walgreens has deals going on often, however, you have to check back every week to find the BEST deal. If it says 30% off photobooks though, that means photobooks up to 20 pages. Anything over does not get discounted. However, when they have 50% off all gifts , this will take 50% off your total order, regardless of the amount of pages. So be aware of the wording.

I highly recommend to anyone. Like I said in the video.

Happy Wednesday! Now go make a video and link up with House of Rose!

p.s. who else hates listening to themselves on video. awkward.

  4. I LOVE your photo books! I did one for Gracie for 0-3 months and planned to do one for 3-6, 6-9, etc. but I haven't put them together yet, I'm such a slacker. I'm impressed with your initiative =)

  5. So glad you're sticking with the vlogging. You're definitely getting the hang out it and sounded more like I would expect this go-round.

  6. I love blurb.com! I have the blog printed in a book every year from there and it's awesome!! Your picture books look great too! I think it's super important to keep the memories printed! My hubby hardly has any pics from his childhood and I hate it! And funny you say that about the "voice"....because all of my old co-workers tell me that my vlogging voice is different than my real life voice??? They say, that's your "phone voice". Ha! I think you sound adorable!

  8. I love the picture books & just started doing them. I use to scrapbook but I came to find that it takes way to much time to do. So I'll be making photo books for the girls. I made my book with mixbook.com. I'll have to check out blurp.com & Walgreens

And I am definitely going to have to check out blurb.com because in addition to picture books, I really want to get my blog printed!! Thanks for the rec! And don't worry...my voice sounds totally different too. I hate it when I watch the video back! Ha!

  14. I love picture books!!! I love having my memories printed and they look pretty on a coffee table, like you say. I always use MyPublisher and I'm really happy with everything I have ordered from them.

  15. I'm a new reader, so HI! I have done picture books from snapfish.com before and they are forever sending me half off coupons. I usually only spend about $50 per book and they have a similar amount of pictures/pages. I really enjoy photo books over albums.

  16. I love your picture books! My family used to print out photos but we haven't done that in such a long time. I'd love to have our memories in a more tangible format than just digital files!

  25. I still didn't imagine your voice sounding like that! Not that there is anything wrong with it but I just imagined something different. Isn't it funny how we do that? :) Also, you should look into the camera. Not at the screen. :) Pretty please. :)
