[Becc1]

First off Happy Birthday, I hope you had a great day!

Just got all caught up, DS's baseball has been kicking my butt, 3 nights in a row of games!

Love the HP shirts! The kids are going to love them!

Another great summer movie! My favorite princess is Ariel too!

Thanks DISfriends...your wishes gave me warm fuzzies...

ADRs coming up on Sunday...actually I am going to try to book a F! package tomorrow morning for the day prior to our arrival.

The CP restaurant list came out the other day, and of course the restaurant that I wanted was not on the list GRRR...so I spent last night reworking all my ADRs for Epcot and then guess what...they added restaurants to the list...and now Biedergarten is on the list...back to plan A!

Summer school eneded yesterday! I am so glad it is over...while it went fast this year...it was also a lot of headaches! BUT I SO AM GOING TO LOVE THE EXTRA $3500 in my pay check next month...enough to pay off Discovery Cove/Universal Package (which is due in November)...but I am going to put it in the bank and hold on to it so I can book airfare as soon as KAYAK tells me it is time...still hoping to find RT flights for less than $350 (that means we need to drop about $100)

On a personal note...I am kid free and husband free for the net 24 hours...what to do, what to do!? Sadly, I need to clean house! DH left with Ab and Goo to our cabin in the mountains along with Cami. I pick Boo up from Boy Scout Camp tomorrow afternoon, clean him up, wash his clothes, get up bright and early Sunday morning make my ADRs and hit the road with him. DH does not understand why I am not coming up tomorrow as soon as I get Boo...he does not understand that I have to be online Sunday morning. Sure I could do it on the phone, but I want the online option too! Today is our anniversary...feels weird to be apart on this day!? 16 years...

Sorry you had to be apart but lucky you being alone for 24 hours! I love my kids but I could so use a day off right now.

Good luck with your ADR on Sunday, I don't blame you not wanting to be home to make them, I would probably do the same thing!

WAHOO!!! I called the WDW DINE LINE...and I ended up with a F! Package!​

I toyed with the idea last night just to skip F! altogether and went to bed deciding not to bother. This morning I woke up and decide to call just to see if I could even get the package on December 29 (day prior to our stay at WDW). I figured that I would be on hold forever...NOPE, got straight in and ended up with the time I wanted (1:30 pm) and at the restaurant (Mama Melrose). I am still not certain about this restaurant and its menu...but not to stand in line for 2 hours...I can handle it!

Now all I have to do is arrange car service from Royal Pacific Resort at USO for that day!

Happy Anniversary (yesterday!)

Good luck on your ADR's tomorrow!!!!

WAAAAHHHOOOOO for your F! Package!


Your ADR's look great! And very organized! You decided to do the dx plan right? Or did you decide to do OOP? We are on regular dining plan, but I added a couple of extra meals, but not enough to go dx.

As it stands right now we are doing OOP. We have too many credits for reg plan and not enough for dx...I still may add the reg on right before we leave for the trip so that is less $$$ to carry and budget for.

It is so NICE to be alone for awhile!!! Sometimes you just have to have ME time!

I finally got my hiney off of the DIS...thought I should get packed, finish laundry and cleaning before I go and get Boo in a few hours...BUT I GOT SIDETRACKED when I pulled out my magic suitcase (the one I hide all presents in...can't believe my kids have not figured my hiding place out...of course it is nestled into several other suitcases like those stacking Russian Nested Dolls).

Yikes it is overflowing with things I have bought and found in relation to our reveal treasure hunt (which is probably turning into an advent countdown calendar thanks to flight times), upcoming movie nights and for our trip. Thought I would share a picture...

So what it in here?

*4 Harry Potter Shirts (Boo, Goo, Mine & Abs)
*Magic Kingdom Game (for Movie Night/Advent Game...WD Birthday in December)
*Disney Scene It Game (think I am going to take that to the cabin this week)
*4 Activity Books: CARS, Sponge Bob, 2 Phineas & Ferb for the boys (stocking stuffer...or in this case bag stuffers from Santa for the flight)
*2 Pairs of Water Shoes for Boo & Goo
*Package of Plastic Storage Tubes (for Boo & Goo's pennies/quarters for pressed penny machines)
*Mickey Mouse Cookie Cutter (For Mickey's Movie Night Birthday in November)
*Disposable Camera (for Goo's bag stuffer)
*Can Toss Game (advent gift to relate to BWV)
*8 New T-shrits (matching color scheme for Boo & Goo)
*3 Safari Hats (advent gift to relate to AK)
*Water Balls (not sure what I am doing with these...pool toys?)

Gonna have to move to a new suitcase soon!

Congrats on the F! package and your ADR list looks awesome.

My DH and I have played the Magic Kingdom game before and we love it!! We use to play it all the time when I was pregnant with DS.. Oh man we would stay up until 2am playing it... lol. Once you play you don't want to stop.

Those look great. We have a lot of the same choices! Have you been to Via Napoli? My DS chose that for Christmas dinner .

Congrats on the F! package!

Happy belated Birthday and Happy belated Anniversary.

I'm kinda slow.
