The DDA Trouble Free Zone

[marcij]

I just got my people magazine and all I have to say is this:

Brad Pitt is full of crap if he wants me to believe the Angelina Jolie had nothing to do with the breakup of his marriage -

Clearly if he got her pregnant less than 9 months from splitting with Jen - she was a factor - you don't end a marriage to someone and say you still love them and respect them and move on THAT quick if there was nothing going on

My sentiments, EXACTLY!

 

[Tinkaroo]

I've never been able to figure the attraction to BOTH of them. All I ever think of when I hear Angelina's name is the fact that she used to wear a vial of Billy Bob Thornton's blood around her neck. EWWW!

 

[julia & nicks mom]

and I just read a report that Jennifer's rep confirmed that Pitt did not inform Jen about the pregnancy before they told the press

what a prince!!

I know they are divorced - but seriously - he says he wants to keep a civil relationship with her and he can't bother to tell her in person - he lets her find out with the rest of the world -

I don't really think Angelina Jolie is a catch either - I think she is a skank

I get so mad when my DH tells me thinks she is the sexiest woman in the world - I would pick Jen over her any day of the week

Okay - I feel so much better now!!

I hope Jen finds true happiness -

Kate,

I love knowing I'm not the only one who thinks this way!! I never thought much of Brad Pitt to begin with (and what has every one forgoten about Jolie and the blood - ewww weird!!)

and dont get me started about Tom Cruise!! Ever since he first came into the market, I took one look at him, and said "he's got lying eyes!" HIs eyes looked like he was a liar!! So when he divorced Nicole Kidman just before the "ten year rule - ie if they stayed married for ten years she would've gotten loads more money - thanks to a good lawyer, their 9 yr + so many months was close enough!!) I thought he was scum!! (even if he did go around saving people's lives!! lol)

and the whole bit about him and scientology is ewwww factor times ten!!

oops, running late, gotta get the class out of gym!!

lol

I love the idea of printing the pages out 6x4 and then putting them in a photograph album with the photos you took fo the characters. Wish I'd thought of that actually...

I bought a small spiral spound note book and printed the pages out on coloured paper 6x4 - then I glued them to the pages of the book (it had quite think paper - cardstock do you call it?) I stuck them to right side pages so I can glue the photos of us to the left side pages.

Here's some of the pages:

The dwarfs page has the lyrics to heigh-ho written around the outside as a border.

I've got a few pms so I'll send the images out to those who wanted them

I completely agree... isn't it odd that men don't find the same women attractive that women do - when we're thinking from a man's point of view

I'd never heard that... and yes EWWWWW is just right

Clare -

These are just adorable. It would be a lot of fun to print them on 6x6 so I could make an official mini-scrapbook after the trip.

In the past, we have bought autograph books at WDW and had characters sign on the right side. I would then glue our picture to the left side. I think this would work much better.

Bev do you have photoimpact?

Those are terrific, too! Now I have some great ideas...I just have to make some time!

Thanks. Good idea about a small logo, but he is a knit shirt/Polo/long sleeve button down type guy.

So is my DH.... His King Daddy shirt was a white golf polo with the King Daddy Crown where the "polo" emblem would have been. It was about 3" wide and 2" tall. He really fought me about wearing it...but after our 3rd or 4th comment about how nice we all looked in our matching shirts he finally gave up his embarassment.
Good luck and keep trying!

 

[disneyeveryyear]

Bev do you have photoimpact?

Yes, but I am not very good using it.

 

[Cinderumbrella]

Guess what! Today, we were at the mall food court and I chose Subway over Chick-fil-a!!!! What is this baby doing to me?!!

Amy

Oh boy!!!!!!!! (and I mean that literally- my guess is that it's a boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

 

[Cinderumbrella]

Well my friends, let this be a lesson to you. Don't leave your Christmas stockings hanging on the mantel until well into January if you have a curious 5 year old. Christopher stared at his so long he thought Santa came back and left something in it. When he pulled on the stocking the cast iron stocking holder fell off and hit him in the head twice. He has a cut in his scalp and his forehead split and has a little knot. Fortunately the cut on his forehead was very small. Had it been any larger it may have required stitches. It's also fortunate that he's very hard headed . You think I would have learned my lesson after he pulled the last hanger off and broke it.

Ouch!!!!! Glad he is OK

 

[Cinderumbrella]

I used Kate's suggestion and just took the pages and a clipboard, sealed in a zippy bag. When an autograph was gotten, we would then leave that page behind. Yesterday I spent the day scrapping pictures to go along with the autograph page and put them into a book. It really looks nice.

OOOOOOOOOO! Pictures please!

 

[rosiejo]

Yes, but I am not very good using it.

Only reason I ask is that they're sized 6x4 so you'd need the photoimpact files to try and resize them to 6x6 rather than the jpegs... although I just had to split them into 3 to send jpegs by email so it could be rather a lot of emails to send the PI files...

See what you think about the 6x4s and then we might have to see what we can do

I completely agree... isn't it odd that men don't find the same women attractive that women do - when we're thinking from a man's point of view

My DH doesn't find Angelina attractive, but the actresses he does find attractive (Sela Ward, Julianne Moore, Jodie Foster) are all older women. Don't know what that means for me now (I'll be 29 this year), but here's hoping he'll think I'm still attractive when I get to be their age!

 

[Cinderumbrella]

it has been a while since I posted my pictures so I thought I would so you all could see what I am talking about

the awesome thing about these it that the characters then know my kids names and it is pretty easy to keep track of whose autographs we still need

it is funny when we see a character multiple times and they have already signed - they always seem a little disappointed they don't get to sign!! We get comments from the CM's, the characters, other guests and Julia looks at her books ALL the time - I use them as her trip scrapbook and it is just perfect!!!!

For our quick 4 day trip in May - instead of making the 6x6 pages - I went ahead and made them 4x6 - then I bought her the Happiest Celebration on Earth Princess album and put the cards in before the pictures of the character - again s he loves this book and looks at it all the time - if you think you are not inclined to scrapbook the pictures when you get home - I think this is a great option!!!!!

to make the 6x6 cards - I buy a pack of 12x12 cardstock at Michaels - i wait until they are sale or use the 40% off coupon and then I cut them into 4 6x6 squares.

I have the characters in a word table so then I make a mail merge document and get my words organized - then i merge them into a new document and go through and make sure they are all on the page - the size of the character sometimes causes the words to fall onto the next page and I make any necessary adjustments and then print -

I take a small clipboard that costs less than $1 at the office supplies stores and a bunch of sharpies (Julia and I like to coordinate the character to the color of their outfit - except princesses have to be pink or purple - for example peter pan signs in green - so we always buy the mega pack!!!) and put them in a ziploc baggie - then at night we do take out the ones we already had signed so we don't keep carrying them throughout the week - i also always print blank ones - there always seems to be a rare character we forgot to put in around or thie time the mickey one got wet and we had to have him sign a blank page

feel free to ask questions -

kate

Oh boy, Oh boy!! I know what I am doing for our next trip!! This past trip I just left blank pages in Kyle's Autograph book and stuck a picture on the blank page of him and the character, but this is SO MUCH MORE CREATIVE!!!!!!!!

Those are cute, Clare. I like the borders you've done around them.
