#Lifeables - Memories Captured. Lifetimes Shared.

My family and my Husband's family both live in Texas.  His family is in San Antonio and mine are in Houston.  There are days where we miss them like crazy - especially around the holidays, birthdays, when Omar was born and when Duke graduated Kindergarten.  It's always a challenge showing off the hundreds of pictures we take, the funny things the kids say and the adventures we go on because the majority of our family aren't social media savvy.  It is really frustrating trying to explain to my parents that they need to check out my blog or if my sister can log into a social networking site to show them the latest pictures of the boys... 

Lifeables is a new, secure free service that automates the entire process of capturing, sorting through, organizing and displaying our family stories.  I tested it out and really loved how fast it filtered through my Facebook, Twitter and Instagram content.  (I can't wait till they add Flickr!)  The Twitter integration is a huge deal to me because I'm always tweeting things Duke says and wondered how I would be able to find those gems again.  More importantly, I love how easy it is to understand and navigate.  I can actually picture my mom signing up for an account and checking up on her grandsons.  Lifeables puts everything in one place and I can categorize and customize the content however I want - by each child or in virtual scrapbook collections.

Lifeables makes it so you can keep your child's story private or shared with family & friends which is really important to me because there are certain moments and pictures that Chris and I reserve for family only.  Lifeables is made by parents for parents and they get it.
