I will have to copy some photos and grab them from my mom since she has pretty much all of our family pictures back home. I've been meaning to get a copy. I will keep that in mind. Thanks!

Make them a photo album with captions. I picked up an 18 or so page scrapbook style album (a little smaller than 8 x 11) at Target that each page you could slide sheets of paper or pictures (I printed off 5 x 7s at the Kodak kiosk at Cub Foods) into. For Father's Day one year I made a "What I Learned From My Dad" album with stories and corresponding pictures. For my parents 40th wedding anniversary last year they took us to Mexico so I made one with pictures from the trip. I've also done a Christmas gift one made up of pictures of my husband and me from the previous year with a little story about what was going on in each picture. As parents go, you can be pretty well assured they will treasure it, and the work that you put into it.
