Today is PE day, and my middle child just got dressed in his exercise clotehs and running shoes and is running laps through the house!

What? That only happens on PE day in your house? I thought kids only came with one mode...run. ;-)

Have you ever had Minnesota Soup? My daughter couldn't say Minestrone...It came out Minnesota. Now I have to take a picture of her with the leftovers so I can scrap the story!

Kids come up with funny things... My son couldn't say chopstick... He kept asking for stocks tips.

So I wanted the BOYS to be interested in scrapbooking and set each of them down in front of the boutique. Quite surprizing what they were interested in.

Darn! Thought I had it right to the crunchy brown crust but it was a bit scorched.

Wish I had a picture of it...but the moment was too fleeting. The kids informed me they were playing "clean out the sewers."

So I was curious...my photo lab charges twice the price for an 8.5x11 as it does for an 8x10....I wondered about the photo books...those all seem to be 8x11. Does any photolab/printer print 8.5x11 size reasonably or is this size exclusively for the home printers?

I print from home because it is convenient and cheaper. Because of how my printer works and how easy it is on ink, it costs me in the neighborhood of 60 cents a page - not including the price of the printer (of course). But I have to have a printer and I always get good ones because I like to print out photos and stuff on it. I like the prints to match my screen so I'm pretty careful about what I buy.

scrappingsimply.com - they print their matte prints on Fuji Crystal Archive photo paper. I've ordered from them and love their prints.

Lulu does 8 1/2 x 11 photo books, but not individual pages. Depending on what your doing and how much you're paying per print, it might be just as cheap to do a book from them. I've printed my calendars through them and they have great quality. I haven't done a book though.

Just got my pictures reorganized. They've been tangled up ever since we moved and I was using the laptop instead of the desktop. So now I'm ready to get some more stuff to scrapbook all the pictures that I forgot I took!

As a new Den mother for Bears...does anyone know of a way that digital scrapbooking could be used for the boys' acheivements or electives?

Well, they could build posters about something they've learned? Like basic first aid? I'm sorry, I don't know anything about Bears, I'm assuming it's like cub scouts?

Do they have a geneaology badge? Or one that would be easy to photograph and document?
Nov 17 2010 09:00 AM
Yes, Cub Scouts. They do a minimal family tree, and tell a story about a family member. They can earn a genealogy belt loop and pin, but that's the only things I came up with initially. That's what I use it for :) But now I'm thinking on these lines, they do have art and photography so maybe something in there might be benefited from my learning here at ScrapGirls. Thanks for your ideas.

Is there a forum for types of cameras and recommendations? Mine is about done for.

Thanks, I'll look there. I thought it was just for techniques so I hadn't looked there.

If you don't find a topic already posted you can start a new one asking about what type of camera you are looking for.

Will PSE9 stop crashing my Win 7 system? I have PSE8 right now.

It crashed min P
C too. I had to take my computer into the shop and have it reformatted. It wasn't all PSE 9's fault, but trying to install PSE 9 was the straw the broke the camel's back.

So it doesn't sound like upgrading to PSE9 is a good idea right now, huh?

How long does it take to burn a DVD anyway?
Oct 01 2010 07:31 AM
Oct 01 2010 07:57 AM
It depends on how much data you are burning. I've had photos take several hours before!
Oct 01 2010 11:16 AM
Yeah, a slideshow Movie for GGma...took 5 hours! Didn't expect that.

Do they always have to wake up after you get them settled for the night?
