***1st Week of December Thread ADR Plans, Park Hours, and dealing with Pop Warner***

I'm going to gain so much weight on this trip! :rolleyes: But, I want to eat everything!

So i just spent $200 at Hobby Lobby for friendsgiving and our trip. That's almost as bad as Target or Costco for me!
 

Hey all! I've been lurking in your thread for awhile now because y'all always have the best information - not to mention a great, supportive atmosphere :) I thought I'd introduce myself and jump in since I don't have anyone IRL to share my excitement with... MIL, FIL, DH, DD6, DS9 and I are heading down from 11/28-12/12 and staying at AOA in a Cars Suite. DH, the kids and I have been to DLR several times, but this is the first time to WDW for all of us (well, sort of, FIL recently let it drop that when he was in HS marching band they performed in the opening day parade at MK!)

:welcome:Your kids are a great age for their first trip to WDW. My boys were 6 and 8 when we took them for the first time. We had a fantastic trip! Enjoy!
 
Okay. We paid off our trip and cancelled DD's pirate cruise. It's coming together! Next: day by day sheets with adrs, fp, and touring plans!
Woooohooo for paying off the trip!! :cheer2: we're all slowly getting there! By the way if you don't know yet, Gap is having their family and friends event and they have 50% off! I just got DS more stuff today including an Olaf panama set he's already wearing now :rotfl2:

Ok, I'm working on my little pocket cheat sheet. I need to update the holiday snacks with the new announcements and such, but what do you think? What am I forgetting?

OMG...GREAT idea!!! I am definitely using that table idea and laminating it!

Girl...you're gonna be living in a refrigerator box if you don't stop buying clothes! :rotfl2: You're as bad as me!! :teeth:

Oh yes i saw this. It was very dangerous. I got DS a ton of stuff including some Mickey socks and a super cute deer sweater and shirt for his Santa pics this weekend. I found a few things for me and DH like jeans and tees for good prices. Plus they're giving Gap cash to use at the end of the month which i hope to use towards a new pea coat for the winter. I have a few packages I'm waiting on then this weekend I hope to get to the mall to get DS some new shoes for the trip (his little feet are growing so fast). That's been my focus the past few days. What still needs to get purchased to pack.
 
I don't remember who it was on here who was intrigued by the idea of a Jungle Juice slushy somewhere in AK. I think someone on here was excited by the idea of it! Lol. Well anyway, I was reading the DFB 2016 Holiday Ebook and it's at Mahindi (formerly Harambe Popcorn)
 
:hug:
I haven't spoken to my sister in like 5 years. we are the only two siblings, have never been close, and she was awful to me during my divorce. When she first heard about it she called my now ex and said "I don't care what my b**** sister does, you are always part of the family." Which might even be a reasonable response if someone had asked her to take sides... but no one had. She basically took it upon herself to take his sides when no one even made it about that. We had a fight about it and she told me that she could not support something that was a bad decision... she "tells it like it is." Whenever we have argued before I was always the one to go crawling back to her and apologized 100% because of course everything is my fault... for the sake of peace and family unity. Well I did not do that this time and hence we have not spoken. She got custody of my parents in the divorce and I haven't spent a holiday with my family since getting divorced. My parents are EXTREMELY wrapped up in her life (they are over there several times a week, do her laundry, care for her kids etc) and there is just no room for me. I'm not asking them to give up being where they really want to be for holidays and they have never offered. That's why I've been bumming... I figured out my vacation time for the rest of the year and took off the week between xmas and new years also but it just makes me so sad to not even be welcome with my own family.

But honestly I don't miss her. she was a toxic force in my life and I don't miss the drama, the hate, the anger that she spews forth on a constant basis. But it is a little hard feeling so alone in the world. I don't spend holidays alone, I spend them with BF and his family... and I see my family a day or two after or maybe for a couple of hours on xmas day between times they are at my sister's house for xmas eve and xmas day dinner. just doesn't feel right though.

It's tough. It doesn't really bother me except around holidays and the 2x a year my parents come to visit my son here when my mother is on the phone or texting constantly with my sister.

OK - I am 17 pages behind, but I absolutely have to respond to this before I go on @Lisa F ! Here's a big hug :love: You seem so kind, genuine, intelligent, articulate and such a caring great mom! I have to say that your family is really missing out!!! Makes me so sad when family treat each other this way!GRRRR! I have a sister who's daughter hasn't spoken to her or any of her siblings for 3 years (incidentally she is the same niece causing me such a headache right now with my mom's affairs). I just can't understand how family could treat family this way. Disagree, argue and get over it! You are family! So glad you have your son and your BF's family! You now have this (DIS) family too! Just remember it is THEIR problem - not yours. Just keep being the kind person you are!
