Number One Reason to Blog...

THIS!
Introducing my 278 page blog book spanning my actual blog from 2007 to 2009 with additional emails and pictures going back to July of 2004 when Bekah was born. How awesome is that!! I now have an amazing compilation of our family history since our family started. I am feeling a little bit giddy about this. :) I made the book through blurb dot com, a website that can "slurp" your blog into a book format and then let you tweak it to perfection. Yay yay hooray! THIS is the reason to keep a blog!
On another unrelated note...this morning I got Beau out of bed, took off his shoes (his braces), carried him downstairs and then finally got a good look at his face to find this:I mean this: (what a ham, he wasn't in the mood for a picture this evening...oh and the band aids are just for fun. He has owies on his knee but wanted the band aids to go on his arms)EEK! I think he got bit by a vicious mosquito last night right on his eyelid. His eye isn't red or even the slightest bit pink...he just looks like Quasi-Beauto. It hasn't bothered him at all, but Rus keeps wanting me to give him drugs because it's disturbing to him. Hopefully tomorrow it's better. (Bekah getting in on the action, much to Beau's pleasure).

That book is so cool! Just a couple days I was mentioning to my mom that I might like to make a book out of my blog posts!

Where did you go to make your book?

I did a book from the same place. It really is fun to see and remember everything.

Yay! I'm so excited about your book! I still need to finish my 09 book and it's already almost the ens of 2010! yikes!
So sad for Beau :( I hate those super vicious mosquitoes!

Yes! The blog book is the best. We've got two so far...make one every year. We're going to have volumes of family history before we know it. It's funny because I didn't think of that when I started, and I often think how terrible I am about journaling (which I am), but the blog sure is better than nothing! Good for you!

P.S. Poor Beau!
