Printing the Images from your session CD......

I know I have had a few of you ask, where I print my images ???
I will be totally honest with you, I used to be a complete and totally beleiver in Walmart!!!
It was quick, and they looked good!! Or so I thought........
While I was still trying to decide which lab I was going to use, I decided to get a few made at a couple different places. The 3 I chose, were Walmart, Shutterfly & Mpix.
Now unfortunately I did not document the horror that I saw in the difference in those photos, but I did find an article, that could SHOW you.........Follow the link below for a full diagram of what your prints will look like, in comparison to the original image on your CD.

Where should I print my photos?

I am a HUGE fan of Mpix. They have never done me wrong. ALL of my images have come to me as perfect, crisp, clean, full of detail images, which is EXACTLY what I am looking for in a lab!! It doesn't hurt that there prices are great as well :)
So please, even if you dont have me print your images for you........PLEASE consider the difference in these images before you print!!!!

Please let me know if you have any questions!

Thanks
~Liz

~ Winter Sleigh Ride ~

On Saturday we got invited to go on a sleigh ride!!
 
 
When we arrived we got to watch them hitch up the horses!
 
 
Let the ride begin :) Genesis was so excited, she got to ride on a sled behind the sleigh!!
 

Just as our ride was nearing it's end, we got to see an AMAZING sunset!
 

There was such a rustic feel to everything out there!
 


 
Genesis especially LOVED the tire swing :)
 

Once the ride, exploring and dinner were done,
we spent some time around the campfire with friends!!
 

I can't wait to do it again!!
