Planning another magical 5th birthday

[annegirl]

We're in the teens!!​

I still can't believe how fast time is going.
Today I have been working on autograph books. Hopefully by the weekend I will have them done! I also have a movie night to post in the next couple of days.
I am starting to get that anxiety feeling that I am forgetting stuff I need to do before the trip! So I'm pretty certain that over the next few days I will be thinking Disney 24/7... well maybe I already do that. ​

Yay for almost to Disney Day!! How exciting!

 

[STLMickeyMom]

Aaacccckkkkk! The teens! So exciting! I get that same anxiety too and after awhile I get to the "if I don't have it in one of these bags we can darn well live without it!" stage.

Can't wait to see the autograph books and movie night!

 

[missangelalexis]

The teens, WOOOO!! I can't wait to see your autograph books! Ahh I hate when the anxiety starts to set in, but don't worry I'm sure you have everything under control!

Yeah I keep telling myself that too. Okay. It's not the end of the world if we get something.

I am revamping my packing list and going over everything today to make sure I have it all figured out.

WOOO HOOOOOOOOOOO

Thanks! I am kind of in shock at how fast the time is going. Only 18 more days until I can stop keeping this secret!! And I know you know how I feel!

Our recent move night was Monsters Inc.
We made monster sandwiches with chips and little frosting graham cracker doors.
We also had a treat of popcorn in a monster bucket and some Monster soda. I got the Blood orange type and that led to a lot of excitement from the girls when Mike and Sully walked past the grocers and there was a sign in the window for blood oranges.
I was going to have them decorate doors for our activity but they wanted to play Headbanz instead.

Okay everybody. I finished the autograph books last night!
I got the cover art from Patnl34 here on the dis.
She did a bunch of things for me this trip. I love how willing those who can make these cute things are to share it with everyone for free. It's amazing!
I bought the pink notebooks from Hobby Lobby for only a couple of dollars with coupons.
The covers are foam which made it a little hard to attach the cover but I used clear tacky glue.
The inside pages are thick cardstock.

The books have all of the same pages in them. And in the same order.
Most of them are embellished identically as well but a few of them have slight differences.
Here are some sample pages:

I also finished my Pumpkin hairbow for Maddy.

What a wonderful Movie night as well. Thanks for the great idea for next weekend. (I knew there was a movie on our to watch list that would be appropriate for Halloween weekend. I just couldn't think of what it was. )

GUESS WHAT DAY IT IS!!!!

IT'S SINGLE DIGIT DANCE DAY!!!

I still can't believe that our trip is so close. It has gone by so fast!

So here is what we've been doing the past week or so:

We had Robin Hood movie night. We celebrated with Root Beer "Ale" and Prince John's jewelry.

It's hard to tell in the picture but our pizza was a big target.

I got my last two pair of shoes finished. A princess palace pets pair for Maddy and a Sofia the first pair for Abi.

We had our Nightmare Before Christmas movie night with hot dog mummies, the cheetos were supposed to be skeleton ones but when I went back to the store they were all gone.. so they are regular cheetos we pretended were bones. And we had monster soda and skeleton family cupcakes.

And or course Halloween!

 

[STLMickeyMom]

love the Halloween costumes! the Sophia dress looks great!

more fun movie nights! I really want to make those mummy hot dogs--they look so fun. and great idea with the ring pops for jewels!

SINGLE DIGITS!!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ARE SO CLOSE!!!!! that is sssssooooooooo exciting!!!!!!!
