Thank you to Yahoo! Mail for sponsoring this post about staying connected. I was selected for this sponsorship by the Clever Girls Collective, which endorses Blog With Integrity, as I do. It wasn't just the fact that I was outside of Canada on my own (with Greg) for an extended period of time that made the trip to India, Paris and London so memorable, but the fact that my mom and brother kept in touch with me via email throughout the entire trip. Five years prior to that trip, ...

Top 5 Ways to Capture the Memories {Guest Post}
Time passes very quickly, and one of the most rewarding things is to be able to look back on a life well lived, and time well spent. There are moments in life that are especially memorable, moments we want to remember and relive.

While posed ones have their time and place, candid is the most "in the moment" one can be. This was even something I considered when choosing our wedding photographer - they had to be good at candid shots and that needed to ...
Capturing Memories in the My Story Memory Book from Glow Baby Review
You can capture the memories and store keepsakes all in one spot—the My Story memory book from Glow Baby. This book has a gorgeous hard cover and tons of quality pages for chronicling your child's life. The integrated band keeps everything together, neatly. I really like the material of the cover, and the quality of the printing of the words/footprints. All the little drawings and certificates your child receives and creates—they can be put in the slot in the pages. I plan on giving this ...
Snapily Helps You Capture the Memories
I prefer to send cards in the mail to my friends and family for special occasions, rather than e-cards, but sometimes the selection out there is limiting. True, there are hundreds of greeting cards out there to choose from, but as far as personalized cards go, there are few options.

All you need to do is upload 2 photos to Snapily and place your order for an animated ...
