I was spoiled in 2013, with a trip to Florida for the BCS championship game (a fabulous time, but the less said about the actual game, the better); trips to California for a TACA conference and for spring break fun; a European vacation with Lauren and Maddie, my mom, and my sisters; and a trip to Vegas to celebrate Mike's milestone birthday and our milestone anniversary.
When the holidays rolled around, I discovered Mixbook, a great site that allowed my sisters and me to collaborate on photo books. As much as I love digital photos, and the convenience of pulling out my phone to show off important pictures, I still love making and looking at photo books. Part of me still loves holding a finished product in my hand.
Here is the book I designed for Lauren and Maddie:

The year in pictures
2013 lent itself to photo gifts. Lauren and Maddie had a lot of adventures to commemorate and also have freshly painted rooms, with plenty of space for wall art.
The day we spent at California Adventure may have been Leah's favorite day of the year. All of the day's activities revolved around the Phineas and Ferb Dance Party showtimes. Luckily, Lauren and Maddie were game. Leah spent all four shows getting as close to the title characters as possible. The whole cast was very tolerant.
Swim team is the highlight of Maddie's summer. Mike and I cannot take any credit for the shots of her in the water -- she has a teammate whose father shoots hundreds of pictures at every meet. I thought she should get to enjoy some of them.
Lauren is in a major photobombing phase. She deserves to have some of these faces staring back at her in the mornings.
