And these are the {Resort} Changes of our Lives ~In Memory of JungleCruiser <3

Hi everyone!!!!

I was wondering why the thread was so quiet, LOL.

Ok, so now I'm thinking of 2 WDW vaca's next year! One during Sept when we like to go and one for my bday in May, the "BIG" 3-0!!!! So, decisions, decisions. If we did both trips we wouldn't get to stay at Poly for either. I just need to work out some #'s to figure out what would work.

Some of the mods are great too!! Price it all out, look at discounts, and save, save, save

Hello to all of you lovelies.

Janet: Thanks for sharing the pic of Anna and your DS. Very lovely girl. Sorry for all the hurt everyone is going through; I know the hugs are only "virtual" but think of them as real...

Virtual hugs are MUCH appreciated!!!

Wahoooo for Pas and her gorgeous princesses! Thanks for posting those pics, Janet.

Here’s another one, the girls living it up in Grand style!!

Janet - thanks for another great pas picture!!!!!

So I had the AP rate added to BOTH of my Feb resies I have them back to back so CRO has not caught on that I am double booked, lol! Ah the life if an RC'er! I was disappointed with the rates, I was hoping for more. It only turned about to be about $10/nt savings over the visa/GP Rate, but I figured $40 buys us a QS meal.

Saving is ALWAYS good!

2 trips vs 1? Even though you might not have the Poly, you will have 2 trips to look forward to! and a Birthday trip will be awesome!!

As Melissa pointed out, there are some other nice options with the mods ...and pricing depends on the number of days for each trip.

OR you could look into renting points to stay at an Epcot resort in May for F&W ... 'course that means no RCing .... BUT it would be a great location with easy access to Epcot for F&W ... and having the Boardwalk ... all good for celebrating your Birthday!!

I am hurting tonight ladies I guess maybe I am doing too much. But this makes me nervous for Disney in 2 weeks. I am doing Thanksgiving at my house so you know I am not resting next week. I need a miracle right now!!!! Dr said 4-6 weeks but for some silly reason at week 3 I was hoping for less pain.

Awww I'm sorry you are feeling bad.

Don't overdo it with Thanksgiving! Maybe you could just do the turkey and have guests/family bring sides pot luck style. I'm sure your loved ones would understand!

I didn't even have any excuse/reason but when I started hosting the first thing I did was tell everybody what to bring Nobody is overworked and everybody gets to relax and enjoy the day with family!

Hope everyone's day was a good one.

I am so loving seeing all the pics of Jeanette's beautiful princesses

Melissa: please take it easy....and yes, allow everyone to bring something. You need a break

So sorry that you are still in so much pain, it is hard to not get caught up in he festivities this time of year. When we were all in the same place for the holidays we always shared the load, please don't hesitate to ask the guests to help...after all it is Thanksgiving

 

[babyberger]

Thank you everyone! We are usually on a cruise for Thanksgivibg but DH was missing it so much we opted to stay home this year. We would normally go to my parents (and I would cook with my mom) but with my recovery they are coming to me. DH has emphatically said my mom can only cook things he doesn't eat, lol! She is not a bad cook by any means, but I managed to inherit the cooking gene and everyone prefers my cooking. DH and DS know that they are shopping and lifting duty. I may only be cooking for 7, but I will have enough food for 27!!! It is our favorite holiday and I do love to cook and bake, I just wish Disney wasn't the following week!!

Janet: Thank you so much for posting the updates on Jeanette and the girls. They are so precious! Looks like they're having a great time!

Amanda – did you ever talk to DH about the additional WDW trip

Yes! I was finally able to sit him down last night and go over my evil plans. If all goes accordingly, we will back in Disney Oct. 12th - Oct. 19th! And we'll do MNSSHP again. We are trying to trade some time we have with our Hilton timeshare into a DVC property. So, basically, I just have to wait until they call me with an availability.

I'm so sorry to hear that you're not feeling well. I'll be keeping you in my prayers that your pain will subside soon. Hopefully, Disney will take away any lingering pain for you.

And I was so sorry to read about your DH's company. That's so crazy! Praying that whatever is best for your family will happen soon.

That's a great idea!! I'll have to look into that. I definitely want to stay near EPCOT. It would just be for a short 3 day trip.

Melissa... so hope you are feeling better today.

I agree with IHeart and others... please do NOT over extend yourself for Thanksgiving!! Here's a plan, let DH cook the turkey (and maybe your older DS? (I assume you have one already ... if not, can you buy it cooked? Many grocery stores around here are open and you can order one). Then ask you Mom to do something that even DH will be able to eat ... maybe mashed potatoes?? Pumpkin Pie? (hey even the store bought pumpkin pies are great ... Costco makes a good one!).

Rolls, corn ...stuffing ... can you manage to sit at the table and do this? your kids can help by getting the ingredients and bringing them to the table. Do you make a sweet potatoe dish? Or we have salad too... something that you two younger can help with certainly.

Let the kids set the table, and even more importantly... leave the CLEAN UP to the MEN!!!

Then you can relax on the sofa with the REMOTE until the men have finished the cleaning up!!

Hope everyone's day was a good one.

I am so loving seeing all the pics of Jeanette's beautiful princesses

Sheila, your trip is SO soon!!! So excited for you!

Janet: Thank you so much for posting the updates on Jeanette and the girls. They are so precious! Looks like they're having a great time!

You're welcome! They had a great time at Universal and at the party last night ... here a castle pix from last night.

The girls... Bree and Kate ... slept in today.

for your October plans!! Amanda, good luck with trading your timeshare.

That's a great idea!! I'll have to look into that. I definitely want to stay near EPCOT. It would just be for a short 3 day trip.

Great! Happy you like the idea Look into it now for renting points as May is 6 mos away only.

[Missoutandabout]

Hello to all! Happy Friday, lovely ladies...

Melissa: Please take it easy. We need to have you in one piece so you can give us reports on your trip.

Janet: Yaaaay another update. Lovin' the pics.

Jen: Those ADRS look GREAT! How's the man-flu DH doing? Hoping he didn't share his germs with the rest of you!

Just picked up some more things for Thanksgiving. Seems to have sneaked up on us so quickly this year.

Oh you are the voice of reason!!!! Especially with the dishes DH and DS know they are helping and the little ones are happy to assist. I looked over my menu and decided I need to cut back and will let DH decide tonight what he wants to give up. He diets most of the year so this is a big cheat day for him, but I just can't do all his favorites this year.

I am taking it easy today. Dishwasher needs to be unloaded so the sinks full of dishes can be loaded and laundry is sitting in the dryer. I am waiting for older DS to get home to do it all and it is killing me!!!!!!! I am not good at being an invalid.

Glad you're trying to take it easy ... but are you sure you're not a nurse, too? Bad patient, bad patient! (Funnily enough, I have all of those exact same things to do here! I have not a single reason why I'm not doing them though. Unloading the dishwasher is my absolute least, LEAST favourite chore ... ever. Once kiddo gets tall enough, that's her first real-deal chore. )

Hiya Linda!

I love your plan! Now, will you purposefully forget something to torture him? Our shops have been absolutely crazy since the weekend.

Just had to go pick up DS from school (got DD while I was there too). He was completely melting down saying he wanted to be dead. Funny thing is how his therapist called this morning and said how happy and loving he is. Somedays Autism sucks!!!! DISNEY TAKE ME AWAY!!!!!
