Michael's Father's Day

This is what Michael got for Father's Day (besides some bicycling gear.) It's one of my favorite things we've ever given him.

Kristi,
I have a feeling that Michael will remember this gift for as long as he lives. What a beautiful family you two have together!

Seriously, you make the best gifts...all the time and effort was well worth it, I'm sure. Did you make him cry? :-)

You guys are so nice! Yes, Michael got a little choked up over it. I did too, even after working on it for hours, when we watched it together. Mason loves to watch it. I put it the CD in the DVD player yesterday and when the slideshow ended, he wanted to watch it over and over and over. It still mesmerizes him. All the kids love it. I need to make more of these!

I remeber you talking about making this for him at some point... scrapnight I think? Anyway, how did you do it? Any special program??? It is GREAT!

That is so cool! It's so weird to see Michael with hair. I'm sure he loved this. What a great idea.

Michael said...

Wow, every time I see this I feel a little tightness in my chest thanks so much!

Brenda, I forgot to answer your comment. I used Photoshop Elements 6.0 to make it. It was pretty easy, albeit a bit time consuming.

Thanks so much to everyone who took the time to watch this! I really didn't expect so many people to view it b/c it was so long. I appreciate your comments.
