That sounds awesome! Very cool idea!

I was spanked and grounded as a kid but to see something like that is something I don't wish to see.

That reminds me: I had this Japanese roommate in college, and one day we got to talking about childhood discipline. I told her my dad used to spank me on the bottom, and she was horrified! She said her father would never be so disrespectful, he would strike her across the face!

i am sewing our costumes i got my DD done but have 4 more boys and mine and Dh still .. i have to do one a day.

 

[Alex2kMommy]

we are doing that also but there is alot i do not understand, do they do this every year?

I think it just started last year, but it's been very successful so I think they will continue and expand it.

Cool! I scrapbook, too, but am not very good about keeping up on it. In fact, I still haven't finished the album from last September's DL trip.

Me too!! I'm addicted to glue dots and double sided tape!

i was thinking of making custom autograph books for the kidlets..

Last year I brought 4x6 pieces of cardstock for autographs, then when we got home I scrapped the autographs and character & kid photos into personal albums for the kids. I used the CM 7x7 album, but am not very happy with how small the pages were. (I'm used to 12x12, and trying to fit a 4x6 photo and 4x6 autograph onto a single page didn't work out so well.

Not sure what I'll do this year; Maybe the 8.5x11? I want something small enough that even DS3 can manage it on his own. I guess part of the problem too, is that we met sooo many characters last year!

 

[spongemommie05]

thank you for that info .. we bought a ticket for my 2 yr old oh crabby patties....

 

[eatmypixiedust]

That sounds fun to make your own autograph book. It's extra special that way.

 

[Alex2kMommy]

I wonder if you could sell it? I guess the nights closest to Halloween sell out quickly, so there might be a demand for it.

 

[spongemommie05]

i never thought of that the date we are going is the 25th

Have you looked in the Craft section of the DIS for autograph books? Some people have done beautiful page designs and posted them for others to print. I didn't have a color printer until last weekend, so now need to go poke around over there to see what I can print!

They also make cool Disney designs for t-shirts (for printing onto transfer paper), and some people will even customize them for you!

Hey, it's the ultimate compliment, right?

That should be every scrapbooker's motto, "Scraplifting is the ultimate compliment!"
