Job well done, the room looks great!

 

[HeatherLassell]

Sounds like a good time to me - I should trade places with them

You're a braver woman than I am, bathing suit shopping makes me

Wow, great job! That looks fantastic, Heather!!!

lol I agree. I'd be happy just having "summer holidays". All that time rushing to be an adult...someone should have just told me that there is no such thing as summer holidays and I might have slowed down! lol

I actually ended up with 2 different tankini tops. Gotta keep the belly covered! lol

Thanks so much!!! It was hard work cause the room is really long. I have a HUGE blank wall that needs pictures...just gotta figure out the arrangement.

your room make over looks awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you!!!!

Thank you very much! It's a CIL colour called Florentine Blue. I will also take a new picture of it with my professional camera instead of my Blackberry! lol

Hi Heather!

Thanks for the link to your PTR!

I'm not sure whether I'm really late to the party, or if you just started super early! Well at the very least, you are much closer to your vacation than when you started your PTR, that must be so exciting. We've only had our vacation booked for a little over a week, and I'm already excited at how the # of days are declining

Very exciting that you're staying at POR, I think that's such a beautiful resort. Can't wait to hear what you all think of the royal rooms!

You're pretty late! lol I've already been writing this for (395-71) 324 days!!!

I can hardly wait for this trip!!!!

Hey Heather. Just stopping by to say hi. Of course I havent completely read your PTR but I did read some. I found it interesting to read your schedule since we are there the same time. We'll be in some of the same parks on the same day.

 

[silverhaze269]

I'm also checking-in pretty late in the game, but at least I showed up ! All thanks to the FB group of course. I haven't read much of your PTR yet, but hopefully I can get caught up this weekend. I'm already excited for you guys though!

Thank you so much! Thanks for stopping by. I sure love that FB group! So much fun! I am sooooooooooooooooo excited for this trip! I think I'll get back into it when the kids come home. Right now I'm STILL home alone and it sucks! I need my 3 monsters to come home!

I'll have to remember that. Who knows I could end up seeing you at the airport too or at MOA the night before. :lol: I'm not stalking you, I promise!

haha That's awesome!!! So you're gonna be at MOA the 28th? lol Now I'm gonna be looking for you! What time is your flight to Florida? Ours was noon but now it's 9ish in the morning!

 

[nene0182]

Yep, we'll probably get to Minneapolis around 7 or so. We still need to book our hotel for that night. Our place leaves around 8am on the 29th

lol So it is quite possible we're gonna see each other then! That's cool! We found a hotel that is about 15 mins away from MOA and the airport. We booked a suite the first and last day of our trip and by doing that we are allowed to leave our cars there for the whole 12 days! Saves us from having to park both cars at the airport for that time!

It was actually a Canadian Dining Offer only available at www.disneyworld.ca It had advertised dates so I just started our vacation one day early (yay more disney time!) and they extended it for the whole trip. So always make sure you're watching that website on the "special offers" section! Or here on the DIS. There is a Canadian section of the forum if you haven't been there yet!

Thanks!! I'm enjoying reading your post.

Sweet! Thank you and if you need help with anything on the DIS don't be afraid to ask. I'm here a lot. lol

 

[HeatherLassell]

OMG I've lost my mind or I'm just really enjoying this trip thing!!!

I JUST booked a trip to Disney Land for next fall just before the kids will start school again! I didn't want to take them out again and it seems like we're getting SUPER hot weather in Manitoba now anyways.

This one is going to be a COMPLETE surprise from the kids!

Oh lord it's gonna be soooooooooooooooooooooooo hard to keep my big mouth shut!!! But Ava keeps saying how she'd love to be surprised!

So after my WDW trip I will start a new PTR for the DisneyLand trip because it's going to be the only place I talk about it since my 14 year old is on facebook so I can't post it there!!!
