Default It's Done!
I uploaded Dec. 31st last night at midnight and finished the cover page and title page this morning. I am so proud of it!

49 pages capturing our month. I must admit that I was in tears as I read the title page to my dh this morning...realizing I had completed it.

Thanks for all your wonderful comments and support along the way! So glad we were able to share this! And if you want to take a look, I've uploaded it to Shutterfly.

Congrats, Katrina. You have made one beautiful book. Love how you put the pages where Ian meets Santa on the train at the beginning. I have loved all of your pages all along but to see them together in one book is just so powerful. I am sure this is one book that will get looked at over and over again.

It's absolutely magnificent. I love the uniformity about the pages, but they're all so different. Bravo Katrina, Bravo! What a gift you have.
