I really wanted to go to WDW during Halloween and Christmas. So I decided on November for 2013 because that was originally when we'd be going back. So I begged a little and got a yes! So here are the details for our Halloween trip!

It will be sometime during the week of September 30th and October 6th..

October 6th we will have been dating for 5 years.

We hope to rent points at the Animal Kingdom Villas!

The room we wanted at AKV was booked so we went with a studio villa at Old Key West!

And we'll have to plan out our flights later.

DB just got his job in October so his shift changes a lot and we can't plan the flights until we know what his schedule will be!

Up next: Confessions

How exciting! I imagine a trip with just the two of you will be A LOT different than with a 4 yo.
My mom and I went last October and had a blast at the Food and Wine festival.

Oh yes it will be! It was so much fun to see WDW through such young eyes but I can't wait for stew to just be relaxed when we go! I am very excited for the Food & Wine festival I have a feeling we will be spending a lot of time there Thanks for reading!

Having been to WDW 5 times I have some confessions of rides I've never done..

I've never rode space mountain OR the haunted mansion in MK.

In Epcot I've never done mission space or soaring, or much of anything in future world.. before I was on DIS I honestly didn't know there was much to do here other than spaceship earth and test track... I went with my mom and brother all the times when we we're younger and neither of them did much research

In Animal Kingdom I've never did dinosaur or saw FOTLK...

& in DHS I've done most attractions that was my favorite park as a kid so we spent a lot of time there.

SO I have two up coming trips in the next two years and plan to do A LOT of new things! I am going to explore as much as I can, with including all of the items about we'll be doing I am going to

Have dinners at other resorts, also something we've never done!
Go to both MNSSHP & MVMCP!
Explore the Epcot Food & Wine Festival (I Love wine )
Stay in DVC Villas! We've always stayed values.
Take the segway tour around the world in Epcot!
Watch wishes from the Poly beach.
Visit the boardwalk (we'll be staying here in November 2013!)
Do the water parks! At least one!

I'll be sure to add more first time things and must do items as I think of them! lurking and reading all of your TR has given me all of these ideas.

Now I must put all my attention into where the heck we'll be eating for our newest trip because we only have a month to decided before the 6 month window for ADRs opens up!

 

[tutti]

I have tons of ideas and would love to eat at every restaurant but as I was talking to DB about possibly getting the dining plan and rambling on I saw him giving me a look like, this is going to be a planned planned planned trip. (Exactly what I promised it wouldn't be) So I took a step back and we looked through the restaurants together and he gave me some requests so I've decided we will have one TS meal a day and wing the rest!

His requests...
Rain forest Cafe, we ate here in DTD so I think we'll try AK this time, has anyone done this and is it the same atmosphere?
& either
The ESPN Club or Big River Grille & Brewing Works

My Request...
Le Cellier With all the great reviews on here how could I not?
Last year we ate at the crystal palace and while IDC about eating with characters I want to be in Magic Kingdom before the crowds so I am deciding between there and Cinderellas Royal Table
& I want to eat at least ONE resort I just haven't put my finger on where... Like I said in my last post I've never explored other resorts and am dying to do so! I'm thinking either Whispering Canyon at WL or The sushi bar at the Poly, IDR what it's called...

We can book our ADS Starting April 4th!

 

[tutti]

So I know we are planning on going to MNSSHP while we're in WDW in October but I am torn about a costume!

We have never been to Florida in October, how hot is it? Does anyone have any tips about wearing a costume? Postivie or negative expirences? Did you find it hot or uncomfortable?

Please help!

 

[tutti]

Will anybody read my PTR?

 

[MinnieLovesMickey]

Can't wait to read what you have plan...er not planned!

I'll be going down at the end of Oct as well. This will be my first time going out my normal May or December realms, so I'm interested to find out what the weather and crowds are like.

yay! thanks for reading! I am having such a hard time with not scheduling all of my meals for table service b/c there are SO many I love and SO many more I want to try... but I promised it would be once a day.

I am really excited to go in October, I hear the crowds are awesome & there is a ton to do between the F&W Festival and MNSSHP.

I had a dream last night that I was in WDW and didn't do anything I wanted to do! Now this is more of a reason for my DB to think I've lost my mind.

It may be because I had just got my WDW park maps in the mail but I didn't even really look at them yet, hm?

But anyway my window to plan my ADV is April 4th.. the thing is we don't know exactly what days of the week to plan for because my boyfriend gets a new schedule every two months! So I think I am going to double book and then cancel once we find out the exact days so I don't miss out!

I am also considering not getting a hopper pass, my boyfriend doesn't think we will need it but I do because it will just be the two of us we can try to get as much done and then visit another park and do more!

decisions decisions!

oh and BTW! We will be staying 4 nights at...
Old Key West!
I wanted to book this asap so we would have a nice room and we booked for the 5 days right in the middle of the week so if he gets a weekend off shift we will just need to add one more day.

Joining in! I'm also going in October! Can't wait to hear more of your plans!!

yay! thanks for reading! I'm trying to be a good girlfriend and not have too many plans but thats why I have a PTR so I don't need to tell him all of them!

My hubby actually prefers it if I plan more! The less planned the more we just stand there going "what do we do now!"

 

[tutti]

So for the past three years I have been wanting to loose some weight, while I'm not fat I am not what I used to be and at 23 I feel like I should be in the best shape of my life! So I was planning on starting during the new year but I failed so I am going to start again NOW!

My first goal is 13lbs!

I am breaking my goals into smaller goals so I can reward myself and know its possible and I am getting closer!

Over the years I have done a TON of research on diet and exercise and I know it's not good to be on a "diet" so we'll call this a "life style" change. Needless to say I love to snack and eat anything that is not good for me. I know how to do it I just need the motivation!

I hope to reach or come as close as possible to my ultimate goal before October 1st & my WDW TRIP!

Wish me luck!

 

[tutti]

So good news! I'm down by 4.4 lbs!

Other news I need to plan out all of my dining and do it by April 4th! Here is where I run into a problem, We don't know the exact days so I need to plan my meals around possible days which leaves me like 4 different combinations!

So I am going to make reservations for the 4 options and then cancle the ones we're not eating at the moment we know the scheudle we're going!!

Has anyone else had to do this?

 

[tutti]

So it was finally time to make my reservations and I've made FOUR sets of them depending on the exact days we go down!

Restaurants including...
Rain forest Cafe in the Animal Kingdom, not my choice what so ever but DB requested and it is his trip too.
Le Cellier - SO excited.
Whispering Canyon, I hope they tease DB, I printed out a ton of menu's and wanted him to select this one and he did!
& last
50's Prime Time Cafe!

I'm pretty excited, they're not the best restaurants but we didn't want to to be too formal.

 

[tutti]

93 DAYS!!! I don't have much planned as of right now because we don't know what day we're flying out yet, more to come!
