Andi's Seattle Photo Book


Photo books are the perfect gift for any occasion.

Vacations are happy days which can last a lifetime in the heart. Spending a week in Seattle, Washington last spring with Bruce, Amanda, Derek and Andi has become a cherished memory. Even though I became ill the night before we boarded the plane I was determined to make the trip. I told myself it was just as easy to be sick in Washington as it was in Utah. It was easier on me to be the one who was sick rather than being with someone who was sick. (Such as what happenned when Bruce and I went to South Carolina, and then again when we went to Hawaii.) Happy times!!! Love Karen

Amanda's Smashing

One of the awesome things about Smashing is that you have one place for memorabilia that would normally get lost in a drawer, stored away in a box forever, or eventually tossed. I wish I had my school I.D.'s displayed in an album.


Announcements, ticket stubs, and invites can be tucked in with the stories which make them meaningful.


This is better than a journal- color and pictures nearly always makes the story more interesting. Certainly more vivid.
Smashing isn't anything 'new', but it does have a cooler sounding name than whatever my vintage journals (which has scraps of mementos included) of 30-40 years ago were called.
