**December 2016 Check In!**

[lorijohnhill]

I ordered my daughters autograph book last night (Shutterfly)! We've decided to drive, since I don't like the flight prices available right now. We'll take our time, leaving Saturday evening and get a motel when I get tired of driving. I have medical issues, so driving too long of a distance can be troublesome. Then, we'll do the same on our return the following weekend. I am so looking forward to this trip! I have so much happening between now and then, the time should go by quickly.

What happened to the OP? I've not seen the list updated in a long time.

Sorry, working on it now! I read posts from my cell while nursing my 6 week old, but don't often log in on my laptop to allow for easier replies/edits.

edit: all updated in OP til this point.

Our trip is finally confirmed, so add me to the list! It will be me, DH, DS8, my mom, sister and my little nephew age 3. We will be there Dec 10-13, staying at PPH. We had to cancel our Gay Days trip in Oct, so this is a make-up trip and actually I'm more excited because I just LOVE the holidays!

I have you in the list, but I guessed on your dates, since you didn't list specific ones. I think I went with the first full week of Dec, 4th-9th. If you want to let me know the actual dates, I can fix it

Thank you for keeping this thread updated.

My son and I will be there dec 23 to dec 25, staying at park vue inn.

We are going to do 2 character meals, and take it slow most of the time. Also my son will hopefully get to the Jedi thing in tomorrow land.

 

[minnieralyks]

Not sure if I already replied to this thread. We leave in 24 days! This was a sorta last-minute trip, because we're used to planning about a year in advanced but found a fantastic deal on airline tickets and just couldn't pass the opportunity up! Within 24 hours, we went from no trip to having both airlines and hotel booked.

I missed going on ToT one last time (because I'm a chicken...) but am going to push myself to go this trip.

 

[Malcon10t]

My kids and I are taking my mom down for Candlelight Dec 2-5 (Disneyland Hotel). We then return Dec 21-Jan 5 for our Christmas break (Residence Inn Maingate.)

 

[princess_jamie]

17 days out for me. I can't believe it's creeping up so fast! I still feel like I've got so much planning to do!

 

[Tinkerbell19672]

December 6-11 PVI. So excited!!

 

[Jedi Mouse]

We'll be staying at the PPH from the 13th through the 19th; only 4 more weeks to go! We originally booked the Sheraton Park, but with the recent midweek discounts, we opted to move on property to take advantage of EMH. This will be our first stay on property, our first trip of more than three days and our fist trip on our new AP's. Needless to say we are all very excited.

 

[ddwlms]

I'm sitting here enjoying reading thru this thread and realized I never made a change here to our trip. Hubby just got a bonus and we have upgraded to the PP. (Dec 8-12)
