This was FUN!

Last time we went to Disney World, the big thing was getting autographs from the characters. There were kids everywhere with their generic blue books and pens waiting in line to get a picture taken and have their favorite celebrity sign their book. I have been searching the web for something a little bit different to take this year. I finally decided to try and make our own personalized books.
Charlie loves anything really....he watches Disney every morning. I couldn't decide on to do a generic MICKEY MOUSE or to do a more "boy" themed book for him. I held up these stickers and he grabbed them and put them in the cart. WOW that was easy!
Now the girls were a little harder....they are a little to "old" for princesses. I could do a mickey mouse traditional black, red, and white? HUMMM...what to choose? After standing in front of numerous mouse ear stickers, I decided to just forgo the traditional mickey mouse and focus on girly!
I thought this was fitting for Ashley...and it matched her room!

I had thought about doing them the same colors, but then decided to change the look all together for Katie. Her favorite color is blue, but sadly they didn't have a blue book. I opted to get her a purple book instead and the ribbons looked so good with this bright paper.
It felt really good to have a project to "work" on today, and now that they are finished I can put them in my suitcase. One less thing I'll have to pack in a few weeks! (not looking forward to packing for 4!)
