Blog Book On Its Way!

2008 is complete! My blog book is on its way. I am so excited that I have finished this little project, and I just had to share. It really wasn't that hard, I slurped everything into the free program I downloaded from the internet, repositioned the pictures the way I wanted and fixed some of the typos, other than that most of it was all ready done for me.  I have so much more journaling in this book, compared to my scrapbooks, so that is a big plus. The only downfall is it's not as cute. Oh well, our 2008 family scrapbook is done, and that is a lot more than I can say for 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007!

I'm interested to know what program you downloaded. I'm getting ready to do mine and thought I'd found a pretty easy route as well.

How funny-mine will be here this week sometime! I can't wait to get it! Although, like you said, it won't be as cute as my other books it has SO much more journaling of our every day lives! If it turns out I am ordering one for each of the kids too!

Congrats on the accomplishment. I can't wait to see the finished product. I love your blog, so I'm sure the book will be just as great!

I was looking at using blog2print.com. It interfaces with Blogger and Typepad and will upload your entire blog in 1 minute. All you have to do it pick the cover and cover pic, etc. I think my year plus 4 months was going to run between $60 and $70 to have printed. What was the cost of yours on Blurb. I'm all about paying the least amount possible. :0)

Lainee,

I am so glad you posted this! I have been wanting to do a book for each year as a form of scrapbooking/journaling too. I know what you mean...it has way more info that what I put into my scrapbooks. I'm with everyone else...tell me what program, price, if there is a limit to how many posts, etc. Info PLEASE! I totally want to do this. THANKS!!
