Julie,
I had one friend from Gaithersburg---it was a brief friendship, but fun while it lasted! (That sounds bad, it was a girl I was friends with during college. We went separate ways after college and never kept in touch.)
I am the same way with events. When I'm taking pictures, I might have 15 good shots of, say, my son playing with his truck. I'll pick 5-10 good ones, and do a spread. I do like repetition in layouts. So yes, you're right, I have more good pictures with digital than I did with film, because you can fire off 200 to get those good 20!
Even though my pages could pile up, I keep my family book at about 60-70 pages. The photos languishing on my computer are going to have to be printed and slipped in an archival album with no embellishment. My husband really wants to see the pictures that don't make it in the books.
I do everything strictly chronologically. That used to drive me crazy when I did paper scrapping, because I used albums that weren't top loading, I couldn't move the pages around.
