Any Disneyland fans out there?

Today marks the 100th post on my blog!  Time flies when you're having fun!  And speaking of having fun, do the letters in my name look familiar to anyone?    



Our family goes to Disneyland every year on or around my nephew Timothy's birthday.  The last time we were there, I thought it would be fun to take photographs of each letter of the alphabet and turn it into a scavenger hunt game for Timothy and Trevor to do on our next visit.    

Here's what I made for Timothy:

 

And here's Trevor's:



I made these using the collage feature in Picasa.  I LOVE Picasa.  It is simple to use, has tons of features, and is totally free.  To make the collage, I simply selected the photos I wanted, resized them, then arranged them how I wanted on a black canvas.  A simple crop and it was done. 

Timothy is such a Disneyland mega-fan that he will probably be able to identify the location of every letter within ten seconds of seeing this post.  How many can the rest of you identify?

Since this is my 100th post, I decided to celebrate the milestone with a giveaway.  Would you like a Disneyland name collage with your name or the name(s) of your kids?  I'll let random.org pick a lucky winner- just leave me a comment!  I'll announce a winner on Thursday.

Looking forward to the next 100 posts!

    We are going to Disney World in August - my son Jared's first trip! My Mom (pat B from Scrapbook.com) shared your blog with me and I love it! Haven't been around for 100 posts, but will be around for 100 more!

    Congrats on your 100th post. Considered me entered for a collage. :) I can't wait to try to figure out where they came from on our next visit.

    Congrats on 100! We have Disneyland passes so we go quite often, but some of these have me stumped! This is such a cool idea. Many years ago I took pictures of different little details of the park (like a window in Toon Town) and made a Where in the Park? book for my cousin. We are such Disney fans!
