Finally finished them... seemed like more than 54 pages... but that's how many are in here:

very nice layouts Debi
some great pictures

[Debbie J]

Wow! You did a very nice job and now have a wonderful collection.

[nchoney]

Thanks! We went to see all those glass sculptures, so I still need to do a cover page. Next year they'll have a huge display of Chinese structures that are illuminated at night. Looking forward to seeing that!

Debi great LOs and wonderful photos.

What a project!
Ditto what they've all said.
You should be very proud of them!

[nchoney]

Definitely proud of them... having fun with these big batches of photos. That pretty much fills one of those American Crafts albums... so I'm guessing the zoo photos will fill another one. But... that's why I bought the albums, right? To fill 'em up!

So... Zoo next... then on to some more big stacks of photos!! Yay!!

[Laurie]

Those were beautiful. Well done!

Wow, they are amazing! I can't believe you scrap that many photos.
Did you scrap all that you took or were there more?

[nancine]

great layouts! I love the photo of you and your camera and the camera background paper... I will have to scraplift this from you!

Marianne.... there were some duplicates that either Peggy (mom-in-law) or I took that were either too close or were blurry, etc. but otherwise, I scrap 'em all... normally it's just Helen or Peggy spend time looking at them... but I still have fun scrapping them all... even two years later

After going to our local Elizabethan Gardens repeatedly, though, I find that I take fewer photos... so my next group of those to scrap will be much smaller than our first walks through.

This batch was from the Norfolk Botanical Gardens and was a special walk through to see all the glass sculptures, so I wanted to make sure I did a layout of all the ones we saw.

I'm sure when I actually start scrapping our trip to Arizona, I'm going to be more particular about what photos make it onto actual layouts.... the others will just go in pockets - hopefully the pockets they're currently in. LOL

Nancy.... I like that one, too... I'm glad Peggy caught that photo. I think I used someone's sketch for that too... the paper and that border strip were fun... I had recently found that border strip at Tuesday Morning and had to buy it just for that photo!

Thanks, Debi, for explaining. I wondered if this was your Elizabethan Gardens.
