As the school year wrapped up, summer began and we still didn't have the class yearbooks purchased through school. I actually spoke with the gentleman putting them together over the summer and was informed that the yearbook committee dropped the ball.
There were minimal pictures. Zero photos of 6th grade end of year activities and graduation.
In addition, since they were delivered after the kids started junior high, there was no signing of yearbooks to be had of their elementary classmates.
Disappointing, for certain.
Lucky for my son, he has a sentimental mama who is putting together his own photo yearbook from his final year in elementary school to accurately capture the year. I mean, come on, who doesn't want a picture of the best Halloween costume captured for life as part of his final parade!
Here we are nearly a month in to 7th grade. New school. New responsibilities. New memories.
Rest assured, I have decided that I will make his own personal photo yearbook in addition to the school offered yearbooks to ensure he has his own lasting memories. His wife will thank me some day. :)
I think Shutterfly photo yearbooks are a great idea for a class gift! You can order them in bulk at a discount just for your child's classroom. Such a special gift for example, for a kinder class or 6th grade class to commemorate starting and ending elementary school. I still have 3 more years before Lily starts kindergarten, but I have this idea filed away in my memory for when she does for her whole class!
I have been using Shutterfly for my photobooks now for at least 4 years. The ability to customize exactly how I want them to be is what drew me in. The quality and customer service has kept me loyal.

BOOM. Just subscribed via email, liked you on facebook, and left a comment on the Shutterfly facebook page. I freaking LOVE Shutterfly and the next book I am going to make will be a gift to a pair of friends that are engaged to be married on my birthday, October 13! They started dating back in 2007 and I have known them the entire time, even snapping some of their very first "couple" photos. Would love to put some of the photos from the past 5 years into a nice keepsake photobook for them. xoxo
