How I did it: When my daughter comes up for Christmas she always asks me if there are things around the house she can help me with while she's there. This year I saw the pile of photos and decided that would be a good project for the two of us. It was fun looking through pics together and the task went much faster with two of us.

Lessons & tips: Throw out all those mystery blurry photos that you are saving because they might be important. Decide how you want to organize things. We organized some things by event (family reunion) and others by family or category (pets).

Resources: One that I didn't have that would have helped and I am eventually going to purchase is a photo album that can accommodate larger size photos.

I also realized that I might want to scrapbook the photos at some point so that the backstory is there for future generations.
