I really enjoy looking through the pictures from the past year and remembering those special moments. And then picking out which ones I will use for the upcoming calendar.  <\/p>\n<p>It used to be quite the production &#8211; I would print and bind the calendars myself (typically running out of printer ink halfway through and having to rush off to the store on Christmas eve). There were a few years when I custom made the calendars for each side of the family (with appropriate birthdays and anniversaries).  And because I was working full tilt until just before Christmas it was usually put together at the last minute (THAT part was not very fun). <\/p>\n<p>Last year I discovered Costco&#8217;s online calendar creator and that was fantastic. All I had to do was upload the photos and drag them into each month. I could even personalize with peoples&#8217;s birthdays, etc.  After I had placed the order Costco called me when my order was ready to pick up and &#8216;voila!&#8217;, the calendars were done. I did the same thing today although I didn&#8217;t bother with the birthday personalization stuff (I&#8217;ll write it in myself, maybe with stickers). And only for $15 (including tax).<\/p>\n<p>Awesome!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just about every year I put together a calendar of photos of our family.
