Do you have one.........

[jstbcuz]

For those of you that scrapbook.......do you have one scrapbook for your disney trip or do you make one for each kid? Do you just add to it or do you do a new one each trip? Is it divded a certain way......characters, rides, character dinners, etc?

I'm trying to decide on how to do mine. Your help would be appreciated.

i dont have any kids, but i always do one scrapbook per vacation that i do. i take way too many pictures to keep adding to one book.

this time around im doing a chronological book... airport, mickey expres, SSR, DTD, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, OKW, Magic Kingdom, and then MGM. and somewhere in there incorporate all the shopping we do, food we eat, and maybe even some of the other non-fun stuff, like the studying we have to do (college students)... *NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT!!!*.

Im ending my book with a typed up day-to-day description of what we did!

HAVE FUN WITH YOUR BOOK!!!

I have yearly books and vacation books. In my one vacation book I have a Niagara Falls trip, 2 Las Vegas trips and 3 WDW trips. I started a 2nd vacation book for my most recent trip in January. I haven't yet but I think I plan to add a page in the reg book saying we went to Disney and go see the vacation book.

For my WDW pages, I usually theme them by park or occasion. I have character meals and parade pages that are mixed parks, but I usually have at least a page for each park highlighting some of the things at each park. When we went in Jan, the holiday decos were still up, so I have pages just for pics of the decos from all areas. I've also added a resort page(s) and special dinners like Hoop de Doo too.

On the last two trips we only took my son, but on the previous trip we took my stepson too and I didn't separate the kids at all. We didn't really take many pics separately, so it never crossed my mind. The vacations are for the whole family, so the scrapbook should be too.

I also write memory stories/trip reports. I take notes at slow points while on trip (we had to wait to be seated at Ohana's for an hour once, great time to update notes). Then when I get home I write the whole story, helped along by my notes and pictures. Having a digital camera is wonderful for that immediate memory jogging, plus everything is in order and dated! After the story is done, I eventually print it and keep it in the vacation book as well, in their own pages with some stickers and embellishments.

One per trip

I find that I take so many pictures that I can fill a book each time. I usually group the photos together by park and then have pages for the non-park days as well. I also like to use the maps as background as well as any other printed literature I pick up along the way

Can't wait to make my next book for my first ever holiday in the parks!!

I am one of those scrappers that only scrap a small portion of the huge numbers of pics we take. I buy a small photo album-usually at Disney--and put all my pics in there. Then I scrap my favorites. I add to a Disney themed scrapbook, starting with a page about the specifics of the trip--dates, flight memories, resort we stayed in, etc. I used to do a book every trip, but I found I was taking some of the same pics over and over.

I do one WDW book for each trip. And an autograph album too separately, with pics and autographs. I did a 12x12 WDW book for 2004, then did an 8x8 for 2005 (WHAT was i thinking!!! I won't be doing THAT again - couldn't fit it all in!) and planning on a 12x12 for 2006.

I do one book....... but I do a double page layout in each of the kids books of the trip.

I do a separate family album for each trip because I take a lot of pictures.

However...I also scrap each trip in each child's album (I have 4 children.) I don't do nearly as many pages in the kids' books (probably 10 pages per book), but at least when they leave one day with their albums they will have these memories with them.

I separate the pictures first by park...then I put them in chronological order according to where we went first, second, etc...then I separate them into logical themes (Pooh pictures, Mickey/Minnie pictures, parade pictures, etc.)
