    Wedding Dresses

    I know stores are starting to pop up where they sell dresses that were sample ones used in bridal salons. Vows out of Boston was really the 1st big one. You can get huge discounts on expensive dresses. Where I live outside of Indianapolis we have one and I have my 20 yr anniversary next year...

    Do I qualify for a DAS?

    Is there a link to see what disabilities qualify for a DAS? My disability is not visible. I have a Congenital Heart Defect We're planning on going in early October because we'll be there for a Conference and I know it can still be very hot and humid then. I'm already in stage 3 Congestive...

    Last Minute Trip

    If you can, stay at a Moderate or a highly recommended Value if you tolerate sleeping in full size beds. DH and I cannot. We're both bed hogs. As of right now DH and I are planning on attending a Convention in Orlando over near Universal and are hoping to tack on a few days to enjoy Disney to...

    2016 Destash - The more things you own, the more they own you

    We were a military family for 15 yrs. My husband served nearly 20 yrs and I joined him 5 1/2 yrs into his career. Not knowing what we needed from move to move, we kept almost everything. Well, he retired 5 yrs ago and we still have lots of stuff. I've been trying to get rid of it but some of...

    Where Would You Eat For Your Birthday?

    For me it's The Wave at the Contemporary. Hands down favorite restaurant I've eaten at so far and that is the absolutely 1 must-do dining experience for every trip. The 1st time we tried it our kids were 21 mos & almost 7 (he was a week shy of his 7th birthday). My kids are usually open to...

    Ohana at 8:30pm too late?

    I think the latest I've ever done an ADR anywhere is 7:30. We've done Ohana dinner 2x's and breakfast only once. You are served A LOT of food at dinner. I'm not a fan of eating late in general. If you can, try to get an earlier ADR. Shoot for no later than 6:30 if you don't want to be...

    I've never done the Wave breakfast, just dinner and have never been disappointed. If their breakfast offerings are anything like their dinner offerings, you should be fine. One of our Epcot faves is La Hacienda. Never had a bad meal there. But you have to like Mexican food for that to work...

    Starbucks in parks

    It's been 5 long and lonely years without a trip to WDW (long story including 3 yrs of getting a JD for DH). When did Starbucks hit the parks? Where are they located? Planning on going in Oct w/o kiddos while we're there for a conference. We are Starbucks lovers and proud Gold Card holders.

    Disney Food Pictures...Part V!

    I need to get around to trying the Fish & Chips. Everyone posts how delightfully delicious they are. I've been so many times and still not tried them. Love a good Fish & Chips. It will be a must do in October when it's just us and no kids.

    Disney Food Pictures...Part V!

    The Wave is hands down my favorite place to eat in Disney. Every time we go, I have to eat there. Always unique and delicious creations. Never disappoints. Looking forward to seeing what's on the menu in October if we go as planned.

    ADR at "the second worst restaurant at WDW"

    I have never tried Yak & Yeti. Not sure if we will or not in the future. Each person has a different palate. I dislike San Angel Inn and prefer La Hacienda. There are lots of people that like/love San Angel Inn. When I ate there, to me the food was bland, it was cold and my meat was fatty...

    2016 Epcot International Food and Wine Festival: September 14 - November 14, 2016

    We will be in Orlando for a convention the 7th & 8th of October. My husband and I will be celebrating our quiet (elopement prior to big wedding 9 months later) 20th wedding anniversary during that trip. Our plan is to enjoy the F & W festival for 4-5 days as we've never been and have talked...

    What's the 1 thing you have to eat every time you go to WDW?

    Top of the list is either Grey Goose or Grand Marnier slushie, Dole Whip, and a meal at the Wave. I have never been disappointed in any meal I've eaten there. Always delicious.

    Have any vow renewal brides worn coloured dresses? Help me decide!

    My husband and I are talking about doing a vow renewal in 2017 for our 20th. I'm really leaning toward a fun, flirty 50's/60's tea-length dress. Something down to right above my ankles, lace overlay, cap-sleeves and a keyhole back. Even if I have to have it custom made. And of course with a...

    Kroger 4x fuel rewards on gift cards

    I was just going to say that! It varies by state. So if you have a Kroger where you live, look to see when it starts before you assume since it seems like people in GA are already getting the 4X fuel credits and here in Indiana it doesn't start until Thursday.

    GOING CRAZY!! Ahhhhhh ANYBODY help!!

    Sounds like a total hot mess!! Luckily, I've never had to experience this. My DH's family is not really into Disney and my own family likes Disney but they don't go out of their way to take trips there. Book your trip as you planned. Let everyone know what you have chosen to do and offer...

    Do you find you save money on groceries shopping at sams club or costco??

    Yes but you have to be disciplined like others have said. I go in there for specific items such as meat, bread, cheese (I grate it in my food processor - a 2lb chunk is roughly $5 and goes farther than buying bagged cheese at the store for $3/each), eggs, tomato sauce on a fairly regular basis...

    Our Generation Doll Vs. American Girl?

    This thread may be over 6 years old (almost 7), but I believe the info is still relevant. Especially since nothing has changed as far as AG dolls are concerned. They are still greatly loved by many little and young girls. Their quality is still the same. Since I know virtually nothing...

    Adults only trip and guilt

    I never feel guilty taking an Adults Only trip. Like someone else said, I do miss my kids while I'm gone. I think it's an absolute must to have time to yourself to decompress. I have not had an Adults Only trip in over 2 years and I feel like I'm going to climb the walls soon. The reason I...
