(posted by Emily) For today's post, we are throwing it back to EuroAdventure '14 ! The pictures we typically post on the blog are iPhone shots, and most of of our camera photos go unshared, except on Facebook. Today, we wanted to share some of those lesser seen photos with you. Enjoy!

I love that these pictures reflect those same attributes! --E&R

(posted by Emily) Guys. Shutterfly books are my latest obsession. I knew I wanted to make a photo book from our EuroAdventure trip over the summer (read: because the physical scrapbook from the 2012 Olympics trip still isn't finished) and last week, there were crazy deals on the Shutterfly site. Photo books were 50% off, and shipping was free if you spent more than $39.  The book design software on the site is easy to use, and allows you to customize your book in any way you could possibly want--change the page colors, add stickers, add text, etc. To take full advantage of the sales and the free shipping, I ended up creating two books--one for our summer trip and one for our Maui spring break trip last year, too.  It is fitting that today is a Thursday, because our photo books are out on the USPS truck for delivery (yes, I am shamelessly stalking the tracking info) this afternoon. It will be a very happy Throwback Thursday, this week! In order to share my joy with...
