It would be awesome if we could make something work. The danger in the 4-nighter is that it's Monday-Friday, which almost necessitates weekends at WDW before and after, then things spiral out of control (well, at least that's how our May trip came to be...) I wouldn't want the land/sea 4-nighter to end up costing as much as just a 7-night cruise. My original thought was to only get Christmas party tickets (no park tickets or APs), then just enjoy the resorts and Downtown Disney the rest of the time. Oh, and Trader Sam's.
But I think it would be really hard to be right there, knowing there are new attractions open and such, and not go to them (thinking of the Frozen ride, new DHS stuff, new AK stuff, whatever is open by the end of 2016).
$2600 for 4 people isn't terrible (well, for a Disney Cruise, I mean). What room category is that? For reference, our booking on 12/5/16 with the 10% discount is about $2350 and that's a Category 4B (same as last time, just across the hall, since we loved our room but the other side has the island views). I wonder if I can reserve more than one room with the onboard booking discount?
I wish these cruises were cheaper! (well, and that my standards weren't so high - I am kind-of intrigued by the magic portholes in the interior staterooms, but the cheapest one there, with the discount, is still about $1900 - a bigger room, better location, and a verandah might be worth $100/night to me). Oh, one bonus of the December cruise that I didn't realize when booking is that it's one of the Very Merrytime cruises with all the holiday stuff.
Anyway, I'm babbling - let me know if you find any deals!
That's hilarious. I told Izzy this tonight and she was very thoughtful for a moment, then smiled and was like, "Her should have Doc McStuffins too!" (I'm not sure if she was referring to you or Aria on that).
It's ironic, as Izzy was actually massively disappointed at the unveiling of her cake because it was inspired by looking through our cake person's Facebook feed and seeing this one:
I told Izzy hers would be smaller and different, but it took her awhile to accept this little one:
(It was still WAY too much cake for our little gathering!
)
Interestingly, we actually do have a little Doc figurine - I found this one on clearance for like $2 during Target's last big toy blowout:

You're welcome to borrow it.
I hope you enjoyed your non-Doc cake.
