Oooh I wonder if my boys would like to pin trade on this trip. I need to check out Ebay... just when I think I have already purchased everything for my Aug trip...

How did you link your PTR in your signature? Is there a link you can post??

To link your PRT to your siggy, you type in [ url= http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=##### ] title of PTR [ /url] without the spaces between everything but the title of your PTR Instead of http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=#####, just copy and paste the url of your PTR! Hope I didn't confuse you too much

Yes, definitely check out ebay for pin trading! I am going to see if I can purchase a lot of maybe 25 before our trip

I'm enjoying it! It's so much fun planning a trip for our precious kiddos. We did the Harmony Barber shop last year (it was timed perfect for back to school haircuts) All 3 girls got their haircuts...then we got ice cream

That sounds perfect...haircuts and ice cream (I may have to steal that idea )! It is fun planning a trip for the kids...but like you, I hope one day to be planning a trip for just the hubby and I and leaving the kids with grandma and grandpa!

The Main Street Bakery has those yummy ice cream cookie sandwiches that feed at least 3 kiddos....YUM!!!

Last year was DH & I's first trip anywhere without the kiddos EVER! We started having kids very young, so they always come everywhere! Plus I had such Mommy guilt, since DH & I both work full time. But I miss my DH, we work opposite shifts, so these minitrips are so valuable...however, DMIL has never had the kiddos for 3 nights...she may not want to do this again
