Would love to make something up like that for my upcoming trip after I do my ADR's on Tuesday!! Love all the extra magic tips, very cute!! And I didnt' know many of them, so thanks!!!!

 

[princess&her4princes]

You are organized! Great planning page. I like how you did it with the colors.

I never realized ther were so many fun little extras you can find around WDW.

Funny voice over....

 

[meanmom121]

I love your spreadsheet -- Great planning Mom!!

Fabulous voice over - You might just have a Disney career in your cards

Thanks for all the little extra Disney "magic" Can't wait to have my kids try them - what am I saying? I can't wait to do them myself

Hug Jason for me, He's given me some great advice on my HWY 90 drive home I'm planning

Hey everyone ,

I got up this morning at 7am & made my sisters ADR's
We were very lucky !! We were able to get most of our adrs at the same time with only 3 of them within 25 mins apart.. so we are happy with that ...

So can you tell i'm Sooo ready to go...

so here's My planner

Ok so I'm always looking for extra magic at disney to show my kids..
here's a few we are going to check out..
1) On the riverboat ask the CM if you/your children can be the "Captain" for that trip. The kids get to "Steer" the boat.
2)Telephones in the stores along Main Street. Pick one up and you will hear a conversation.
3)Just by the Indiana Jones show, there are some crates hidden in the bushes, which are marked 'don't open' - go ahead & open them!
-Again, Near Indiana Jones is a well with a rope in it, pull the rope for a surprise
4)Find the dog nose which is near to the garden hose in the Honey, I Shrunk the Kids playground in Hollywood Studios, put your hand into the dog's nostrils!
5)-In the shop next to Pizza Planet in DHS you’ll see several large wooden packing crates. Try lifting the lids of a few of them
6)Haunted Mansion—(1) After riding the elevator/stretching room down, as you walk to the cars, there is a lobby with a desk and lamp. On the desk is a dictionary that is turned to the word death. This is not easy to see since it’s supposed to be behind a barrier, but go ahead and look because nobody is there to stop you....or is there.

well that all today till next time I will leave you with Jason & I doing the voice over at MGM enjoy...

I love your planning spreadsheet. Would you be willing to email me a copy? Also...the picture that you made of your family with the mickey ears...would you be willing to make one for my family as well?? It's me (Stephanie), my DH (Jeff), DS (Jeffery (10)), DS (Jahlil (5)). I know I am asking a lot! I just love that picture. If you can't make it, can you recommend someone on the DISign boards that can? Thanks so much for your help!

That small suction on my wallet just turned into an industrial strength vacuum!!

We think we figured out the pricing for homeschool days. It will run about $250 if we do everything we can in 2 days. They have 2 courses for 3rd graders, one at The Sea in Epcot, the other at Hall of President's at MK. They each last about 3 hours, and they sound like fun for the kids. We are attempting to do creative accounting to pay for the extra stuff.

Here's more info on Homeschool Days.

I do creative accounting once a month at bill time
So cool I had no idea they actually had classes for the homeschool days . I thought it was just a way for all the homeschoolers to get together - Doh, blond moment

What made you decide to homeschool? Just asking because this was something we considered in the past but were advised against it because my son has dyslexia.

 

[princess&her4princes]

WOW, that's great, good for you for taking on homeschooling!!! And extending your trip! I can't wait to see what you end up with for ADR's...more planning, yay!!!

ps- thanks for the link to your itinerary planner, I'm going there now....

 

[bentleygirl22]

The disney homeschooling days sounds so cool .Everyone we have talked with has loved it .. So we knew we must go, & with this being the kids 1st year homeschooling and us being there that week already we knew we needed to add more days so the kids could go..
Jason has wanted to homeschool the kids forever, but i wasn't sure, Well this year we really started talking about it alot So we started reading up on it & talking with a few people that homeschool. James & Alexis have always tested higher then their grade level, So we figure homeschooling them should excel them even more & that is our goal.

WOW, that's great, good for you for taking on homeschooling!!! And extending your trip! I can't wait to see what you end up with for ADR's...more planning, yay!!!

ps- thanks for the link to your itinerary planner, I'm going there now....

Nice plans... Sounds like we will be at MK together on the 16th, at Epcot together on the 17th, and eating at Le Cellier that same night (What time is your ressie for?)... How funny is that... We only had 1 major change to our plans since I posted last time... We decided to upgrade to a preferred room at CBR for this trip instead of staying at Pop like we originally planned...

 

[bentleygirl22]

Hey you guys just a heads up that the online Adr's is up and running
