Well my plan is to scrapbook them, or at least some of the special ones. I finally got them all uploaded to my computer, divided by park and resort and made copies to an external hard drive for safe keeping. Of course my hubby has been giving me a hard time about how many I took and telling me I should delete the bad ones, but I was happy that at least I got them off the camera.
I uploaded all of them by park to SnapFish, and have gone back and deleted the bad ones and blurry ones and the too dark ones. I always try to get night time shots of Cinderella's Castle even though I know my little point and shoot camera is not going to capture the perfect shot, but I did manage to get a few good ones with the castle glowing different colors and the fireworks. Not too bad with a 7 1/2 year old little boy on my shoulders!
This week I've been working on ordering some pics from SnapFish, they had a couple good specials this week I wanted to take advantage of, free shipping, a free collage and $10 credit for new customers. I ordered the Magic Kingdom pics with some prepaid credits I've been saving. And my son and hubby just started their own SnapFish accounts so they were able to get a photo book each for only $4.10 with shipping! Plus 50 free prints each WHOO HOO!!
I made Jesse's photo book with The Jedi Training Academy pics from Hollywood Studios. I'm so glad he got to do this since Star Tours has made it's last trip to Endor.
If you'd like to see the book just follow this link http://www5.snapfish.com/snapfish/projectshareewelcome/l=2035191028/p=858161284688961242/g=3833727028/cobrandOid=1000/COBRAND_NAME=snapfish/otsc=SYE/otsi=SPBKlink/
Sam got all his pics uploaded from The Great Western Expedition and I'm really impressed with the great photos he took! We bought him the camera as a gift and I'm sure it will be well used. We made a photo book as a keepsake of his trip. He also got a big 11 x 14 collage poster for free! You can't combine coupons and freebies on SnapFish so we placed two separate orders, one for the photo book and one with his poster and free credits so we managed to get some really nice mementos without breaking the bank.

I still have more pics to edit and order, I also signed up for accounts at Shutterfly and York to get free prints, so I guess I will have to review them all and see whose service, prices and products I like best. I will let you know the results. I did go ahead and preorder more prints from SnapFish for myself and Sam, since we both have lots of pics to order, they had prints for .08 each and I'm pretty sure thats cheaper than printing them myself even though I do have a nice HP Photo printer. I am still not convinced that the pics I print will last as long as those from a professional service. I just can't risk my memories of my family fading away. I was sorting through some photos the other day and came across some baby pics of Jesse that I had scanned and printed and they were horribly faded compared to the professional one and it was the exact same picture!
