Fun challenge! I have never done a photo-less page and so I had to try that.

After some thought I decided I am going to make a top ten list of DD's favorites from each trip the last page of all my books. Every trip she loves different things - the only exceptions being Mickey and Fireworks. It will be nice to reflect on these as she grows. Thank you so much for the idea/challenge and the chance at the prize. This page is from our September 2009 trip.

Andrea I absolutely love this challenge but I have to confess that this was the most challenging challenge for me ever! I just couldn't decide how to approach it and I couldn't make a single page work so I went for a two page layout.

I loved all of the celebrate today signs and the overall concept of finding something to celebrate every day so I used that for my inspiration. Hope you enjoy and thanks for the challenge!





Journaling reads: 10. Watching your excitement grow with every new mode of Disney transportation we took. 9. Creating and enjoying our confections at Goofy's Candy Company in Downtown Disney. 8. You and Daddy spinning us like crazy on the teacups and laughing hysterically the whole time. 7. Seeing your joy when the princess Minnie doll you "wished" for "magically" appeared in our room. 6. Trick or treating during Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party--despite the rain!
5. Getting our first family picture with the big cheese, Mickey Mouse! 4. Riding It's A Small World four times because you loved it so much. 3. Watching you enjoy your first Mickey ice cream bar. 2. The precious moment that you met your first Disney princess. 1. Seeing the magic of Disney through your eyes and finding that I love this place even more now that I have a child to share it with!

Here's my double page spread. Thanks so much for this challenge and the opportunity to win a GC. I absolutely adored this challenge. It really
gave me something as a double pager that I could put in an album to recap our trip.

Boy - it's really hard to only pick 10 things you like at Disney!!

I had the hardest time figuring out my top 10, so I chose the top ten photos I took early one morning aboard the Wonder. Thanks for the great challenge!
