No, it's not a gift for me, it is one that I am giving to my friend Joe. We, my husband, Joe and I spent two weeks on vacation in upstate New York. I decided to use Mixbook to make a photo album for Joe as a memory of a great time. I ordered two of them so I would have one too.
In this time of digital photos, I usually have to be on my computer to look at memories from vacation and events. The price of the little book was very reasonable and I am delighted with the way it came out.
What do you do with your digital photos?

That is a good idea, you have all the bases covered. I do have a photo printer but I haven't printed any at home in years.

@BelleStarr I print some, those that I like more, I do not fully trust the digital world.

Mine are on my computer and yea sometimes it's a pain to look at but them I probably have 15,000 of them on here. I made a cookbook a couple of years ago for my sons and used pics from our lives it was fun doing.

I'm a memory hoarder so I hardly delete any photos that I take with my phone and camera. Hence, I prefer to print out these photos so I have a hard copy that I can take a look when I feel like it.

I think he will, I tried to use photos that will evoke specific memories. We went to Niagara Falls, took a boat ride on the Erie Canal, visited art museums, I tried to include all of these.

It is not as easy as they make it sound, I have a lot of experience with it and still, it doesn't always come out the way I want it to.

I think that is a great idea. I sometimes print them out at Walmart, but mainly they stay on my phone.
