Down Memory Lane

I recently sent in 700 photo negatives from 1999-2002 to ScanCafe to have them digitized. A few days ago I was able to preview them on the internet before the discs are mailed to me. What a trip down memory lane!

My boys on middle Son's 2nd Birthday

Looking at old pictures made me realize:

My children are growing up WAY too fast

There is a reason I am tired. I've been parenting for a good stretch of years. (Gestation, lactation, recreation, education, frustration...procreation takes a lot of energy!)

Life keeps keeping on... Sunrise, sunset... Breakfast, lunch and dinner...

Real life isn't going to start "someday". It's already here, so enjoy it!

Life is good


Okay, back to ScanCafe. They scan your negatives at 3000dpi (the picture up above is only a preview so it isn't a large file). I am excited for the discs to come in the mail so I can see if I am happy with the final product. If I am pleased, I plan to send in all of our film negative and have everything digital.

I'll keep you posted...

Erin, that picture is tooooo cute!! It's so much fun to be reminded of what dolls they were, and compare to how they look now. Wow, it's gone too fast!
