I received my SnapFish Custom PhotoBook just last night after ordering it on Thursday afternoon and I just have to say I am very happy with it.  My family loves it!  I chose all the pictures that we took the day we went Apple Picking because most of the pictures came out really nice and it was a really fun family day.
