The Elder Family Lodge

I've been dying to post this for you all to see, but I had to wait until I gave it to my dad before I let you all see it. I started making this for him, really, for his birthday (April 21). Then it took forever and I started shooting for Father's Day (June 15). Then, I had computer problems ... but be ye not dismayed! I was able to finish it in time for July 21. Which really isn't a holiday but who needs a holiday to show their dad how much they love them!!

This is an 80-page book I painstakingly created from pictures I've taken over the years at my family's cabin that we've lovingly dubbed The Elder Family Lodge. My dad loves this place, and we love spending time with him there. Click on the book preview to see the first couple pages.

That's so thoughtful of you! I love all the options available now for binding books of photos, journals, or doing a scrapbook. So nice. I'm sure your dad LOVED it!

A priceless gift! Your dad loves loves loves this book. Thanks for taking the time to make this for him. I should get a little credit for a few of the the pictures. But I am no where near the photographer that you are. You are amazing. Thanks again.
