My friend Janet never fails to have birthday parties for her four kids every year. I guess it is something she loves to do for her kids and at the same time enjoys doing it. Janet is so creative! She prepares almost everything herself. I am so amazed!! From the invitation to the decorations to the cake, to the giveaways to the games. She even makes the props for the games herself by putting together different stuff so she ends up not spending anymore to buy them. I told her that she should be a party organizer because she is really good at it. I admire Janet, as a mom, as a wife and simply as she is. She is one of the simplest person that I know and that is what makes her stand out. I am lucky to have met her and her family.
With her permission, Heart2Heart is sharing with you the photos from the party of Josh and Tiana last February. 
Treasure Hunt game! What a nice idea! The kids dig form the sandbox and look for the hidden treasure. There are “X” marks to give them clues. 
Fishing game! Hook a duck and win a prize. Fish the net of gummy fishes and its yours! 
Kids had their own pail and shovel to scoop up their treasure from the treasure chest. Whatever they are able to put inside the pail is theirs to keep. 
You will never believe this but even this cake Janet made herself. We went together to buy some of the treasure sticking out but she cut up the cake to make it look like a treasure chest and then she fixed it all up to look like that. AMAZING!! 
The photos above are actually pages of a book which I made with I Photo on my Mac. Of course i took the photos first then I laid them out. After which I sent it over to my friends, Chu Chu and TC Sibal’s, store, Picture Books, to have it printed. They can also lay it out for you if you have your digital photos but I enjoy doing it myself in my Mac. It took only 4 days and they even delivered it to my doorstep with a minimal fee. I was very happy with the printed book and with the service I got.
Then I gave it as my gift to the kids for them to look back at it when they are older.
It is a great way to make an album because it serves as a story book as well. It tells a story and you can share it with your friends and family.

Easy Steps to Create A PictureBook
1. Just bring in your digital pictures to any of our retail outlets. You can bring in the memory card or a disc containing the photos. You can also use pictures from your cellphone (although resolution may not be as good as a digital camera).
2. Choose a size: Small, Medium or Large. Then pick a theme for your book. Will it be Hard-Bound or Soft-Bound? We recommend using high resolution photos for the Large size.
3. Sit with our PictureBooks operator and watch as your photos are laid out into a book. You’ll be surprised, its actually fun and easy. The process can take as little as 15 minutes or up to an hour depending on how involved you want to be. For convenience you can also leave it up to our Picturebooks operator to completely lay it out for you.
4. Review and check the final book before you go! Make sure you have everything just as you want it. Please double-check the spelling and captions.
5. Pick up your very own PictureBook in a few days! It takes us 4 working days. Remember its even better when you share it as a gift! (By the way, you can also have it delivered to your doorstep instead.)If you are a Mac user, then you can already make your PictureBook at home and just send us the file.
