I had heard from a couple people of a computer program that can turn blogs into a book. It's called Blurb and I'm really excited about it. About two years ago I started typing out my mission journal to eventually turn it into a book to keep for posterity. So I began to transcribe it into Microsoft Word, intending to eventually include all my pictures with their appropriate entries. I only got as far as three weeks into my MTC experience. Now that I've discovered Blurb, I am excited again to make my book. I think it will be easier this way. I am transferring my mission journal into a blog (however, it's a private blog for now), and I am including all my pictures so there will be one concise record of my mission. I am so excited for it, however I have a feeling it will take me quite awhile because I wrote pretty frequently on my mission (unlike Chris who doesn't have much of a mission journal--how sad!).
I have also decided to make a new wedding album with this program since our original album's binding is falling apart. It also lets you add stuff from your computer (it doesn't necessarily need to be from a blog) and I'm really excited about this one too. Luckily our wedding photographer gave us all the negatives (really, they're files since it was with a digital camera--does anyone use regular film anymore?).
I think Blurb should pay me for the advertising I have done here!

Hehe! I love blurb. Although, I have started a few different blurb books and I haven't finished any of them :S
Someday... someday they will be completed...
Blurb books are so cool! Go Milla go!
cool! I heard about them too and I want to do the same with our blog. I am sure you will love it once you get. I do digital scrapbooking and so I scrapbook pages and then I have them printed into hardbounf books. I am working on an ABC's of Tessa book. I am almost done!
