2 Princesses, a mom and Grumpy-1st Trip Final Thoughts

[MaryAz]

Wow...I haven't even looked at the calendar for our trip. I am so out of it. I still can't get myself to start packing yet, either. Our house not suitcases.

Your 1st day looks so great. Makes we want to go find out whats going on while we are there and start some kind of a plan!!!

Um, I think you have a little on your mind right now with the move,packing is so daunting..

Thanks I am so excited, am trying to come up with plans for day 2 now.

 

[MaryAz]

Your first day plan looks great! I really hope we can make it to the Dole Whip meet. I have been to WDW multiple times now and I always tear up when I cross under the sign and when I first step onto Main Street. I also tear up when the girls have a magical moment with a character (like the sweet conversation Ariel and Lindsey had in 07). These are the things that make me come back year after year to spend my hard earned money.

On a side note, a certain package went in the mail today and should be delivered by Saturday. There's a special surprise for a super-cute birthday girl in there in addition to the other goodies we've already discussed. Lindsey thought it was very cool to pass down her dress to another princess-in-training .

I hope you guys can make it too! I am really hoping that Jeff gets the same feeling so this will be our first of many trips.
Oh boy, a package you are to sweet to include a surprise for Avery. I am glad Lindsey was ok with passing down the dress. I will have Avery send her a note with a pic when she gets it.

Hi Mary Az Great plan for Day 1 especially the Dole WhipMeet!!! See ya there !!!

Yep, we can't wait to meet you!

 

[MaryAz]

Hi Mary! Congrats on the dress and on the EXTRA DAY!!

Looks like an awesome itinerary!

Thanks so much, we are way excited!! Thanks for doing all the work on the shirts!

Hey Mary! Are you getting one of the EPCOT DIS meet shirts? I haven't decided yet what to do...we're spending most of the day at AK....

 

[MaryAz]

Lindsey would love to trade. Maybe Lindsey can show Avery how to ask the CM's and ease her into it the night of the Spectro meet or afternoon of the EPCOT meet if we don't make it to Spectro. Sometimes a big kid showing how it's done makes it easier. Just a thought..no pressure.

I think that is a great idea! It would be more special for Avery I am sure that having Jeff or I do it. And I am sure she would feel "like a big kid" SO fun!

Hey Mary! Are you getting one of the EPCOT DIS meet shirts? I haven't decided yet what to do...we're spending most of the day at AK....

Yep, I am getting one for each of us. I think I told you that I am having custom AK outfits made for the girls so they will wear those at AK then change right when we get to Epcot for the meet. Jeff even said he would wear one. I plan on multiple clothing changes each day cause they have so much cute stuff and Cayley is messy.

Ooooh what kind of outfits are you having made? Custom outfits sounds really fun. Josie is messy too so if I buy the shirts I will have to bring it with us and change because she will look like a trainwreck by 3pm. I really like the shirts though so I was secretly hoping you were buying one.

I am part of the Dis Big Give group-I do not sew but do "pixie dust" One of the ladies made these awesome outfits for one of the Wish girls. I saw it, pmed her and she is making them for the girls. A pillowcase top and skirt with all kinds of animal prints on it. I am so excited.
I love custom shirts and stuff. I am also a sucker for the $5 Target holiday shirts.....

I tear up just thinking about it, can't imagine how bad it will get once I get there! The girls reactions are what really is going to get me!

The outfits sound so cool. I can't wait to see pics. I'm a sucker for the $5 shirts too. Sometimes I go back after the holiday and buy the shifts 50-75% off for next year. My girls are so small that I can buy ahead.

I almost forgot that you have family coming in today. Hope everyone makes it in okay and that you have a wonderful weekend and birthday party!
