A Birthday Scrapbook


We just celebrated my Mother-in-law's birthday last night. And what a celebration it was! Her niece and I have been collecting letters and pictures from family and friends for the past month to put into a scrapbook for her. When her niece arrived here from Kansas on Wednesday, I picked her up from the airport and brought her to my house, where we scrapped like crazy women all day to get this put together in time for her party. :) She really loved it!

It's gorgeous Michelle! I made my MIL a birthday album too a couple years ago, and she loved it. She's not into crafts or anything like that, but she was pleased that I preserved her precious pictures and that I took the time to do it.

Your MIL is going to love this! You have been a busy girl : )

Michelle, your birthday album turned out great and no wonder your MIL loved it. Cherished memories are those things that become so important to us and to have them all together in a beauiful book is a lovely way to carry those with her.
Gorgeously put together!
