You can make them a book at Blurb.com with family photos and stuff. Or you can make them a DVD slideshow set to music of family photos. I think there's a program that comes standard with Vista.

I've done like a photo collage for my father of pictures of us through the years with a small poem.

i did a family photo calendar on snapfish for my parents and it was a HUGE hit that i do it every year now- its even branched off to my aunts asking for one....
the first year i did all present day pics- but this year i'm doing all pics of me and my brothers when we were little- i cant wait to give it to them.

Make a scrapbook. You can make one on walgreens.com.

Re: Sentimental Gift Ideas??

I actually came up with something pretty good. I got my Bridal Party their gifts already, but i had wanted to add a little something extra special for my two Maids of Honor (without spending too much, because at this point, I'm broke.)
I ended up choosing a picture that means a lot to the three of us (it's from when we were little) and I had it put into a really unique wood carving. Not too expensive, but definitely sentimental. I know it's something they each will display for many years to come.

Here's the link, if you're interested for maybe that Christmas gift for you parents.
