My Mom will 80 in October. My sisters and I are trying to have a family reunion and create a scrap/memory book for her. We have spent this evening on the phone deciding who in the family to designate which realtives and friends to contact. I have no experience in the book details. Does anyone know of a website that would have what we are looking for? We want to start with pics of her great and grandparents, which we have, and then with her birth and follow her life with momentos and pics. We need a scrapbook that we all can have access to get the pages to put together to form this book. Since she will be attending the Assembly with me this fall, I will try to find people she has known thruout her life and get pics for the book. And yes she will be attending at least 1 J2 event with me. (Aside) Jinger, if you can help me with anything, thanks, I will be talking with Buddy and Helen and Claudette. Thanks all. I want this to be very special for my Mom.

What a wonderful gift. I don't think you could give her anything better. I hope it works out well for you and you get all you need.

I think I have some pics of your mom and my mom and grandmother. I will check. When do you need them by. As far as the book, if you have pics scanned in, there are numerous places that make memory books. Walgreens is one as well as several online places.

Her birthday is October 30. So we have time. Jinger, my Mom has wonderful memories of your Mom. She would love to hear from you. I sent her the link that TC put on here a few weeks ago and she loved it. Your Mom is special. Wish you could make it for the reunion, it will be the last of October at the Prestonsburg chuch.

I believe shutterfly.com may have what you are looking for. The books turn out beautifully and they send them to you all finished. I do not know, but I assume multiple parties can have access to this project at shutterfly.
