Haha, don't tell my fiance that! I mentioned maternity insurance the other day and he had a deer in headlights look!
Oh how I'm glad to know that's not just my DH

Did you put the downloaded fonts in your Fonts file folder in you Control Panel file folder? I am semi-computer dumbed down... I cheated and used google. Found ya this: Font Help
HTH!
Here's another website that offers a pretty user-friendly basic Disney font: dafont.com. We should all share our scrapbook pages! It may be another fun way to pass the time til vaca!!
Ohhhh I love this idea a lot!!! I'm only on Day 3 (19 pages) of an 11 day disney vaca! I better getting movin'!
Hey Jen! Caught your reply to me over in LOVEMY3KIDDOS report and thought I'd come by and see your PTR!
I did a Minnie theme for my DD's 1st bday in July! Now I am trying to come up with a design for older DD's bday cake for our dinner at Park Fare. I know I want it to be Cinderella...
Cannot wait for our trip!!! See ya at the CBR in December!
I wanted to say I'm in too!!!
Those invites are the cutest things ever!!!!!! I made something similar to that for the bedroom doors in my apt when I worked at Disney. They do take TONS of time so kudos to you!!!
All the ADRs look great!! Are you planning a late morning or early morning breakfast at Tusker House bc in early Dec, AK will closes by 5 from what I can remember working there so if you were planning B, L, and D there it might be a lot since the park closes at 5 unless it's EMH but if your up for a ton of food, I say go for it!!!!
I saw you questioned Teppan Edo. I had never eaten there before I worked at WDW and in the past year and 1/2 of working there, I've eaten there 6+ times and my Ddad has insisted on doing that as our Candlelight meal again this Dec. If you have ever been to the places where they cook in front of you (sorry the name begins with H, so I'm going to butcher it lol), it's similar to that. When I moved back, I went to 2 different Japanese places and they are all similar to Teppan Edo. I say go for it, the steak, chicken, and shrimp are all wonderful!!
I have not done the BBQ but I hear it's not too bad. I've done Hoop Dee Do and Spirit of Aloha and both of those were fab but no characters.
Hope that helps!!
Can't wait for more!!!
Just wanted to stop by and see how you made out with the big storm this weekend?? I saw on our news that they were expecting 20 ft. waves on the Cape!! Hope all is well!
*I had a 6th grade teacher who used to always say that - "Let's Mo Vaughn!" For anyone not in the Red Sox loop, he was a first baseman for the Sox in the 90's.*
Alright, so we have done:
- Cast of Characters
- Details of Madi's birthday
- Shared our CRAZY Disney Costumes (thanks girls )
- Shared the goodies I have picked up for Madi's Birthday
- Showed off the Invites
- Discussed our ADR's hopes and dreams
- Every body got excited for being under 4 months!
- Decided to use my PTR as a scrap-share
SO... Let's go a head a MO VAUGHN!
Should We Do This or Should we Do That?
This question has been asked about a 101 things, at least it feels that way.
- Should we do Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party? Yes!
- Should we do the Candlelight Processional? Not this time, Madi's just too young.
- Should we rent a car to get to the airport, take the bus, spend the night before in Boston? This remains unanswered. I did have a friend offer to drive us at 4:00AM , but I just can't trust that she'll follow through. We have reserved a rental car that we can pick up at home and then drop off at the airport, this is looking like it will be our least expensive option.
- Should we do Fantasmic? I think I am going to hold off on this one this time around. Again, I just can't see waiting in line for over an hour (even if we did the dining package) to see a show Madi could potentially be scared of.
- and don't get me started on the ADR "Should we/shouldn't we" 's!
Now We Gotta Do This!!!

***WOOHOO - Just got interrupted by the UPS man!!! My Oriental Trading order just came in, along with Madi's gift from my Mom! ***
If there is anything that I should add or that I may have left out - please chime in! And soon I will be able to post our day-to-day plan. I'm crossing my fingers that hours are posted promptly on the 1st! Let's hope!
On a side note - we went to an outdoor (seaside) wedding Saturday and I was dumb and forgot my sunscreen . Now I didn't forget it, like forgot to bring it... I put it on Madi and neglected myself. My back is red, Red, RED ! And today it is so painful and itchy... I just want it to hurry up and peel - this middle stage is what KILLS me! Sorry for griping, but no one is home to complain to, so I turn to you!
Your plans look good for a 2 year old! She's going to love Playhouse Disney and seeing Mimmie and Ickey! DS was 9 months old when we saw this and he would not stop dancing
It all looks great! You should be able to get all that done at a nice pace for a little one...not too fast, not too slow! Can't wait to solidify plans with hours! I called again tonight and they said there is still nothing showing in their system for hours yet I NEED THE HOURS! Then, when we can nail it all down, we can try to make a meeting plan! BTW, glad you were not effected by this weekend's storm. I saw the story about that little girl on Good Morning America. Very sad.
Welcome aboard! Thanks! The part is just over a week away - which means I am SOOOOO close to my ADR day!Over here! Love those birthday invites--they are beautiful!
Oh man! I haven't been sunburn in a while but it sure brings up memories! I hate that stage and I always buy a peel to put on when it starts peeling to peel it off quicker!*I had a 6th grade teacher who used to always say that - "Let's Mo Vaughn!" For anyone not in the Red Sox loop, he was a first baseman for the Sox in the 90's.*
FUNNY HOW THINGS LIKE THAT STICK WITH YOU FOR LIFE!!!!
