Next week we will be taking our first official family vacation. We’re packing up and driving 12 hours to Disney World and go to the beach for a few days. To remember the trip, the Woog and I made a journal and keepsake box for her first big trip.

I did the cover text as she collected buttons and such to use as embellishments for the week.

My plan for the journal is for us to write it in each night about what we did that day and let the Woog draw what she did/saw and have some room to add photographs for the day later. Since I’m more of a keepsake box person (rather than a scrapbook) we will add little things she gets on the trip like brochures, shells, etc.

Here’s the final journal and box:

And here’s what’s inside. Notice the Snow White sticker, she can’t wait to meet her!!

We’re all going to have a blast and I’ll show some completed pages when we get back!
