Topic: Birthdays
Back to doing these in order, now that the Grand Canyon trip is done. I don't really like to do layouts about myself, but since we're encouraged to, I try to do one every year with my birthday pictures. I also don't like pictures of myself, but I was having a good hair day this day, so it's okay.
The Panorama stictching function on Photoshop Elements 5.0 (which Nathan gave me for Christmas this year) is AWESOME.

Journaling: "My 43rd birthday. Aaron reading the wrapping paper - Nathan upholds the age-old tradition of wrapping gifts in the Sunday funnies. Nathan gave me the American Idiot CD by Green Day, and my parents gave me an ASU sweater (luckyfied , since the Devils beat UA this year) and a Michael's gift card. 11/21/05

(Oh, I remembered that when scanning, I have to tell my scanner not to "correct" the colors. But bulky items on the pages are going to make some shadowed areas anyway. So it's never going to come out looking exactly lifelike.)
