It was at the Carpenter Center, real close to the new house.
Awesome! Michael asked me where the new house is and I am thinking near Park Estates or Bixby Knolls? Love the LBC.

I'm here! Sorry about the Mom's Panel but yay for a consolation trip! I'm so excited for you! Jill in CO

I don't know about snow! I was in Kansas City all weekend and no snow when I got home tonight.

It's in Park Estates. We considered a place in Bixby Knolls, but (and this is silly), there was no Ralph's anywhere nearby. This was a serious problem! We ended up with the place in Park Estates even if it backs up to Bellflower Blvd.
You went and started a new PTR. Glad I found it.
Sorry about the Mom's Panel.
Looking forward to the next update; and to see how you and Alison coordinate time together. Just remember.....contrary to your belief, Olga's wing of the house is MINE!
Checking in. I am so happy that you get to go on this trip.

I think there's room in Olga's wing for the three of us. I'm small, I don't take up much space.
We'll have 2 park days and then play days so really, whatever works for Alison.
Olga will only have a Queen size bed. The room is pretty small!
I don't think you've posted your days yet, but we are having dinner out there on the 20th, so we will be out there. Also just about any day will be fine for me. Unless Fran has an ulterior plan for moving that I don't know about. She's usually good about letting me have time with my DIS friends.
Sounds like you were smart and did both of your wait lists as single nights? I'm not surprised, that vastly increases your chances of it coming through but major SCORE!!!!!!!!!
I had similar luck today, we've changed our April trip to be 1 night in a studio and 4 in a 1 bedroom as my parents are coming. I was shocked to see there were still 1B's for all of easter week. Of course the 5 studio nights I let go are already gone. Good news about all of this is it means that we can still have a lovely Easter Dinner in the villa (or breakfast depending on performance schedule) and probably hit church as well since my parents will get a car.
I like the dates you picked MUCH better. Yes it will be crazy but there is something about being home on actual Christmas (versus traveling!) that supersedes all of it.
UGH on missing 2 days. The E's will miss 2 in Jan and while there usually isn't a ton the first couple of days after break I really REALLY hope Evan gets his act in gear so I can feel better about it. I don't think it will make or break a thing but still.
Awesome that you get to go for the holidays! And I agree going before Christmas is a better time. PHXscuba
Congratulations on the wait list!!! I like your pros/cons list for options 1 and 2 I wouldn't want to drive on Christmas, much better to be home and relaxing. I'm so excited for you guys!
I'm feeling rejected. Right now I share with a BIG black lab and a medium sized Springer Spaniel when Michael is away. I'm used to the fetal position. Tell Olga to move over!
So what size Villa did you get? I can totally see why your wait list came through. It's the 30 day time line for us locals to cancel their waitlists for a whim of staying on property.
I hope the next one comes through as well!
Sharing works for me.
