My seven-year-old daughter’s First Communion was yesterday. So of course I took a bunch of pictures. She looked so beautiful!
Afterwards as we were enjoying brunch back at our home, the usual joke came up about how I always take a ton of pictures, but no one ever gets to see them because I’m over a year behind on ordering prints. Right now I have 2,104 photos in my “yet to be ordered” photo folder and I haven’t even downloaded my pictures from yesterday! I guess they have a point.
But who has time to put pictures in photo albums?
I used to, but not anymore. Not with three kids, a growing at-home business, a part-time job outside the home, my kids’ full-time extracurricular schedule and double digit loads of laundry.
That’s why I was thrilled to learn I can create photo albums at Snapfish.com where your first 20 prints are FREE and you get 4×6″ prints as low as 9-cents! So instead of ordering hundreds of prints and having them sent to my house, where I’ll leave them on the kitchen counter or shove them in a closet until I get around to putting them in photo albums (which at this rate will be never!), I can have my photos sent to me in photo albums with captions for less money than I usually spend ordering prints and buying albums at Target. (I usually spend $10 on a photo album and .19 cents to print each photo for a total of $29 for an album of 100 photos. An 8×11 photo album with 20 pages from Snapfish.com starts at $19.99.)
This time saver is perfect for me and anyone who wants their pictures in photo albums, but just doesn’t have the time to sit down and do it. I haven’t even started my fifteen-month-old daugther’s baby book yet, but here’s what I think about that!
