PM me your address and I'd be happy to send you one! I don't think I can send a rum umbrella drink through the mail though!
You could always send a picture of a rum umbrella drink I guess, Ill just have to close my eyes and imagine it! lol
It doesn't look like there is too much left to do!! Great job! But...I agree! It's so much more fun when you are making them for vacation!!
The boys had some great ideas for gifts!
I'm seeing mostly green on that list, Missy! Good job.
Your list looks great Missy!!
I am a list person too, and of course make my daily to do list every morning!
I'm excited that you're going to do a little countdown!! I can't wait!!
The memory I want to share IS from WDW though, and if you've read any of my other reports, it may be a familiar story. 
Anyway, my grandpa and I were VERY close! I still remember visiting him from college and he would slip me a $20 bill and say all secret-like, "Don't tell your grandmother!" He was a hoot! My grandfather lived to see Jeff and I get married in 1992, but sadly passed away from a severe stroke and heart attack in 1994. It was a very difficult time for me. 
He rode with my Gram (who loves roller coasters) and I and I'll never forget the look on his face when we got off the ride. 
He was shaking his finger at me and saying, "You tricked me! Never again, Melissa! Never again!!" He tried to be mad, but I don't ever remember really seeing him mad. He just laughed and kept saying it all day...."Never again, Melissa!" It was something we laughed about for MANY years after that trip and one of my dearest memories of WDW and of my grandpa. I don't have a lot of pictures of that trip, but I have this one that I keep on my desk all the time. You can barely see us, but we are there in front of the fountain. I'm not sure if this is at Epcot or if this is somewhere else in Florida, but it is definitely from that trip.
What a wonderful memory you have of your grandpa! My mom is so afraid of roller coasters so getting her on BTMRR last year was a challenge...even though she wanted to ride it for the boys, she was so scared!! We ended up sitting right behind her and my father and I don't think I have ever heard her laugh so hard. She loved it!! Such a great memory! Seriously though....so much stuff has to wait until the end so it's great that you have almost everything else done already! That picture definitely looks like the Epcot fountains! It's funny how you look like you are both dressed for different seasons! He's in long sleeves, long pants, you're in shorty shorts!
Thanks for sharing Missy!!
I'm excited to hear how you like the new and improved Space Mountain!! This was our first time riding it so we have nothing to compare it to but we had so much fun!!!
Your to-do list looks fabulous, Missy! So much is already done - now you can just coast to the end when it's time to leave!
What a great memory you shared!
You're gonna love the new Space Mountain! It really seems darker and smoother and the glowing stripes that used to be on the cars aren't there so you really feel ALL alone out there in space since it's darker! I really enjoyed it! Plus you can get a ride picture now!
Can't wait to hear more memories!!

I'm wearing a jacket so it must have been cool, but those shorts are something else!
After that, I had grocery shopping to do. I had just enough time to swing home and put away groceries before I had to head out to my hair appointment at 3:00. I love my haircut, by the way! I'll try to post pics later....I'll need Jeff to help me take a few good ones! Then....home to work on house chores and get dinner ready before I had a meeting last night at 7:00. Needless to say, there was no time to DIS. So sad! 
Anyway, Susanna (the little girl) loves Aurora and had asked Jonah to bring her back a picture and autograph. Too cute! Well, of course, Jonah being all boy, really didn't want to stand in line to see the Princesses, but he LOVES Susanna, so he did! (Lucky for me, because I wanted to see them too!) 
It will be different to experience it without the kids and, as much as I will miss them, I am so looking forward to being there with Jeff.
For those of you who have followed my other PTR/TR's, you know that I live my life by a list. Each day has a to-do list.....whether I'm going on a trip or not. But....the trip to-do lists are obviously the most fun!!
that is a pretty impressive "DONE" list
I'm actually a little sad that I'm not doing a big 10 Days to Disney countdown this trip. It just seemed silly when the boys would not be joining us, but I admit, I'm sad.
Sadly, I don't think I'll ever get the boys to wait in line to meet the princesses. I love it!! It's always what I look most forward to on our trips!! 
YAY! Only 5 Days left!!!
The pictures of Jonah and the princesses are so sweet. Your right though, it probably won't be happening again any time soon. Well, maybe when he really starts getting into girls and he may be sneaking off to see the princesses then.
I love love love walking down Main Street and just taking it all in. The beautiful sight of the castle, the pretty hanging baskets, the guys holding the bundles of balloons and, like you said, the smells. Ahhhh!
I love the 10 day countdown too...so glad you are sharing special memories and the things you are looking forward to it
The story of yo and your Grandpa is so sweet....some of my sweetest memories of my late Papa were from a special vacation he took me and my older sister on back in the 80's
Can't wait to re-live more meories w/ you as the days get smaller to leaving
J~
Ahhh...what a great memory to look back on!!! The pictures of Jonah and the princesses are adorable!!
I agree...there is nothing like walking down Main Street!!
I can't believe you only have 5 days!! I think a dance is order...don't you think?
