Hello friends...I must again ask you to open your generous and loving hearts.

As most of you know, my niece has brain cancer. She was diagnosed almost 7 years ago and had surgery, chemo, and radiation. They got as much as they could and still allow her to keep her motor functions, speech, etc. She was blessed with two sweet children. About 18 months ago, she had a 'bad scan' and they started chemo again. It seemed to be working and then stopped. She's reached a point where they can't do anything more for her. It's growing and the treatment plan they started her on was starting to do more harm than good.

At her last appointment the doctor was surprised that she wasn't yet symptomatic. She will start to have weakness on the left side and seizures. Probably sooner than later. She was planning a trip to Disney next January. They strongly urged her to do it sooner. So, they are going next month.

Here is where I'm asking for your help. I will not be able to make 2 autograph books before March 15th. Would you be willing to make some pages for me?

I know they are planning a few character meals so we could just focus on those. They will be staying in Savanna rooms at AKL. (My sister and BIL are going to help out).

I am planning on using the the Disney EK Success scrapbooks, which are are 8.5x8.5 in size. EDIT - Going to be using 8x8, because I can't find the EK Success ones locally.

If this isn't an appropriate request, please forgive me being so forward.
 
Already posted on FB that I will make the akerhaus pages for both kids
 
Jennifer,

I will help....

I will do several sets for each child...

Do you have a list of characters you would like?

You tell me what you need and I will make it happen...

I will forward the list to Buffy when you know what we need for sure...
 

I'm here!! Jennifer, please let me know what you need. Do the 8x8 pages fit? I have almost an entire ABC album that I'm not going to use.
 
This is what we need:

Cassey is making a bunch of these!

Other pages? Would someone like to do something for Animal Kingdom Lodge? Or BBB? You tell me what you'd like to do.

I started a secret group on Facebook for this, if you'd like me to add you, please let me know.

As far as instructions...

Please leave room for an autograph approximately 3.5x4 (I will be providing her with card stock to get signatures) AND please make your photo mat 4.25x6.25 so she can easily just put a picture on it without any trimming. Please also either keep your mat unattached OR make your page so it can be oriented either way. They are leaving March 19th, so I would like to give the finished product to them on the 15th.

Buffy, I'm sure I could find a separate 8x8 album to fit the ABC pages if you are not going to use them. They would probably LOVE that, even if they have to share ;)

THANK YOU!
 
I will do a generic page for each park for both kids.. WDW, MK, AK, DHS, Epcot.

I will do Cinderella pages for both kids...

So, I don't mess this up..... the background measures 8.5x8.5.....

I will have them out by Mar 1...

Does that work????
 
Yes, I measured the white insert of the red Mickey album here, and it is 8.5x8.5. I plan to get a red one for Sophie and black for Ryan.

Thanks, Nancy.

Oh, Annie is going to do AK. How about an AK parade page?
 
I'm dropping DS13 off at the movies now but when I get home I'll see which pages I have and which are missing, there were just a few. It was a DIS swap and it's already in an album.

Group 3
Cover, A, B, H, I, J, O, P, W, Y, Z, back cover

Pages from Group 1
M, Q, R, S

Pages from Group 2
C. F, G, K, L, O, T, U, V

Missing pages:
D, E, N, X

I wasn't in those swaps, but, I went through my 3 ABC swap sets last weekend and I can donate pages for the missing letters--Dumbo; Enchanted; Nemo; eXcellent adventure or piXie dust or XOXO if you think those might work. Jennifer made XOXO so I'd probably choose that one.
 
Looks like the ABC book is covered by Cheryl and Buffy!!! :) If you go that route!

I will take AK off my list since Annie has that one!

Thanks for the update Jennifer! I have been waiting on family to get home.. were supposed to get 1-3".. uh, 6" later... 2.5 hours for Dh to get home... I had to drive Ds17 to work...and then we went to get his car.... I'm so over winter!!!


Ok, for my personal notes:

WDW - 2 sets
Epcot - 2 sets
MK - 2 sets
DHS - 2 sets
Cindy - 2 sets
 
That's amazing, Buffy, thank you for that. I'm honored to take that contribution for the kids.

I went to Jo's this morning and they do NOT have the albums. So, I'm going to go with generic 8x8 since I can easily get the universal page protectors. Sorry for all the back and forth.

Thank you, Cheryl, that's awesome.
 
I will drop it in the mail Tuesday morning. We are leaving for WDW Wednesday, let me know if you need anything else. We'll be home on the 24th
 
Thanks, that will be great. Have an amazing trip, Buffy.

Thank you. Nancy. We're back to the 8x8.
 
I may be overthinking this...what do you think of just leaving room for a small card? I'll give her a stack of white card stock cut to 3x4 or 4x5 for the autograph. Then she won't have to worry about which goes where?
