2013 Photo Stats

It is time to start working on my annual family photo book.  I organize with Picasa which provides me with some fun statistics.  Here are some facts about our pictures.

Total photos taken and saved (I only delete duplicates and poor quality pictures).

• 2004:  3060
• 2005:  2174
• 2006:  2431
• 2007:  3243
• 2008:  2967
• 2009:  3069
• 2010:  5399
• 2011:  4412
• 2012:  4926
• 2013:  4090 - I am a bit surprised that we were down on total photos in 2013.  Maybe it is because we carry our cameras less since we have phones with cameras. The biggest reason is probably that we weren't as adventurous in 2013 with 4 little kids. In 2014 we have 2 extra trips planned so I expect our photos will go back up.
