Saving Vacation Memories....

Vacations and trips are such important family times.
I think it is so vital to get those pictures off of digital cameras and digital storage and  into some type of format that can be enjoyed...be it a mini-scrapbook, picture frame, shadow box or photo album.
After all, if the pictures aren't enjoyed, then why do we take them?
I love having family pictures displayed in various ways around our home...it's important to me and my family.
I made this mini scrapbook  {just 14 pages} to remember our family trip to Florida last year for Spring Break.
 The shared family times on the beach...
 day trips to interesting places...
 family dinners...
theme park adventures...
 beach fun...
 and more beach fun.
I leave this little scrapbook on a side table in the living room. Visitors pick it up to peek through it and the kids pick it up often and talk about the fun we had.
I love that!
I would like to be around in 100 years time to see if families have lost generations of family photos because they were left on digital storage, never printed and never resurrected...left to live their life on obselete technology and then die a quick death...like the floppy disk.

Do you make a point of printing your pictures often for your family to enjoy?
Do tell! Inquiring minds want to know!
