@Maryemcd and @jillyh so sorry you guys are sick too! It seems like we're all making the rounds of getting sick, but I like to think of it as just getting it out of the way before the trip! Hope you both feel better really soon!

@JamieOak and @Maryemcd we can exchange Africa tour reviews afterwards! I'm really pumped because this is going to be my first ever Disney tour.

Actually, gonna have a few firsts on this trip! My first time seeing all the parks at Christmastime, my first Disney dessert party, and my first Disney tour. Yay for Disney firsts!

@areno79 omg I love the shirts!!!

Welp, something new came up, and I moved my 7DMT FP again so now I have no more conflicts! What's that?... Can it be?... Am I... done? OMG! I am officially turning off my TP Reservation Finder. I can stop stalking ADRs! After I make my family's FPs tomorrow morning, I can stop stalking FPs!

I am back home after a looooooong afternoon/evening of shopping. Roomie's work is having a conference this weekend, so I was running around solo. Picked up decorations for our resort window at the Hobby Lobby! Got a sheet of window clings and some battery powered snowflake lights with some command hooks to hang them. I also got some super cute Christmas themed thank you cards to use for Mousekeeping tips. I wanted to do candy goodie bags, but the cards were so cute, I changed my mind. I found roomie and I matching Mickey Christmas sweater t-shirts at the Kohl's, and I had enough coupons and reward $$$ that I got them for about $6 each. Lastly on the trip related front (because no one cares that I bought dishwasher tabs and light bulbs) I got a pack of mini M&Ms so I can have the tube for pressed pennies!

Very successful shopping day!!

I'm right there with you! Been in bed with a fever for 2 days now! I figure it's better to be sick now than 3 weeks from now Hoping we all feel better very soon! Think I'll take some cod liver oil for the weeks before our trip. Ugh!

Get better soon!

Mmm... butterbeer!
My DH didn't get the whole Harry Potter theme but he did like the butterbeer.

OMG, did you find the BOG dinner you've been wanting? Hooray if so!!!

OMG, did you find the BOG dinner you've been wanting? Hooray if so!!!

I didn't find a different dinner time, we've still got the 5:05pm I've had all along, but I managed to get a far enough out 7DMT that I won't feel like we're rushing anymore. I was able to move out FP to 7:15pm-8:15pm.

That sounds like a great solution and it will be fun to ride 7dmt at night. We have fast passes for it twice- once at night and once during they day!

Yey!!! It looks so official!! I chose purple for our bands, too. And I just ordered red for our sdfp bands yesterday! Glad to see they look nice together

Now... To really start packing I know you guys have been discussing it for awhile now, but I've just started really getting into it! I went through the girls clothes and anything g new I bought for them, ( still looks like 70s for temps or so ? )

I think I have most of the usual stuff in my list.. Baggies/ ponchos/ band aids/ charger /sanitizer/ sunblock/Tylenol/ ponchos....

But if I think of anything else that may seem helpful, I'll pass it on!!

I haven't been on as often as I like, but does anyone know of any RoL updates? Probably not still hopeful over here!!

 

[pigletgirl]

DH is the best! He came home with Pho last night for dinner.

I really have a lot of work to do and I hate not having the energy to start it all.

I really want to get our mousekeeping envelopes labeled and ready.

I talked to the teepublic people and the gal was great. She recommended we exchange my shirts for a men's small/medium. So, they should be here next week hopefully, and then I can start packing.

Just getting pumped now!

 

[Candycane83]

@pigletgirl thats awesome! Soup is the best for when feeling sick so happy teepublic got through for you! My order was just shipped so now impatiently waiting!

@rasadkowski looks like nothing on ROL yet... quickly losing hope on this but I think around 15 would be the point where I would give up. On packing, I think I'm going to start next weekend. I did last minute packing for this weekend and it did not go well. There were fails for everyone! I didn't bring my shoes, DH forgot his black socks and belt. DS pants were too big for him and I needed to pin it so it would not fall! And it still fell later when the pin popped open lesson learned! I will pack early! (Sorry for the long rant)

@chasingthtdream08 that's great you got your magic bands!!! I got purple too but would not get it until I get to Disney. So jealous of all of you getting it early

@Mal6586 thats awesome you get to stop it's nice when everything falls into place!

For those who have eaten at BOG for lunch. . .
recommendations?
in what rooms do you get to sit?
We have an 11:45 lunch on our MVMCP party day (my possible consolation meal at BOG--better than nothing!) and I can order today! ; )))

We're having light lunch on the 10th and plan to order the pork and a soup to share for DH and I. I would order a kids meal for my son and probably share that with him too I always see good reviews on the pork and soups though so I'm excited to try that!

I haven't been but dd wants to eat in the rose room. I think it's seat yourself though at lunch?
I plan on the soup and dh is going to have the roast beef sandwich and dd will have the pasta. And cupcakes for dessert!

Yes. those cupcakes sound good!!

Happy Sunday!

I had my first Disney nightmare last night. We left for our trip but forgot our magic bands. In my dream there was no way for guest services to replace then and all bands for purchase were out of stock. We were scrambling to get a flight home to get them. Consequently we loat three days of our vacation!

20 days to go!!!

Sending well wishes to everyone that is feeling under the weather.

Yes! I had the pork last trip at dinner. Assuming it is the same, is was SO GOOD! Fell apart with a fork, super tender.

My son wants "the grey stuff", which he had at dinner. I grabbed this lunch when I saw the Master's cupcake has the grey stuff on it. I don't think he cares what else he eats!
What soup is everyone getting? My DH had the French Onion, and that was really tasty, and not too salty.
