My dad is turning 70 years old on March 25. He and my mom have asked us not to buy them gifts for birthdays and holidays anymore--they say there is nothing that they need. I didn't want the occasion to go unmarked, however, so I decided to make an album for him. It started with a free write exercise, just putting down what I thought of when I thought of my dad. Now I'm looking through old photos (that he conveniently gave me on CD's a few years ago!) to find pictures that match the memories. I don't know how many I will get to by March 21, when we celebrate....

Just think of all the information about that time in history that is conveyed in this photo! Your dad will be so pleased....I know I would be. I think you've settled on the perfect gift for his 70th. I hope you share all the pages.....it is a trip down memory lane for me, too!

This is perfect ... love it! I'm making a book for my parent's 50th Anniversary (this June), with not just pictures, but memories of me and my sisters growing up with them. I've been asking my sisters to send me their memories/stories/tid bids (anything) and they just don't seem to get it. I may have to show them your page ... it's so much more than the pictures, isn't it?! Your dad is going to love this!
