60 days... just 2 months, YAY!!

I love that dress! I'm sure we'll need to go to Target one more time before our trip, so I will have to look for that dresss!

I only wear my Croc flip flops at Disney. They are so comfy, and the one day that I wore my sneakers because of rain, my feet and legs hurt! I loved the capris flip flops, but then they didn't have them, so last time I got the Crocband flip, in 3 different colors, and love them too. Only had one strap rub me on one side, but that was it out of all 3, just that one flip flop.

I see they have 15% off today, for Crocs birthday.

I've worn my Mary Jane Crocs to WDW in the past. I don't wear sneakers unless I'm working out (which is to say, hardly ever, LOL!) and the MJs worked great, but I want something different... I may have to go check out the Crocs sale!

I'm gonna have to get a list together of things I need to pick up before our trip, but I have a little more time as we have 89 days to go.
I need to find some comfortable footwear to wear as well. Really wanting to go with flip flops of some sort, but not sure. I made the kids wear sneakers and socks everyday on the last trip, but would like to find something cooler (as in temp, not as in the look) and comfortable for them.

I know my DDs wore their Crocs on our first trip... DD10 may have worn her sneakers and Crocs on our last trip. I like that the Crocs will dry fairly quickly if they happen to get wet on a water ride.

60 days should go fast, especially with the summer to enjoy!

Wow, sixty days is going to fly by!!!

60 days... just 2 months, YAY!!

I have a feeling these next 2 months are going to pass quickly!

Those dresses are gorgeous! I love the t-shirt too, there's so much Disney merchandise in the stores just now, I found a really cute Bambi shirt in Asda (Walmart) the other day that I just couldn't resist

As for footwear, I am a huge fan of trainers/sneakers and socks. I know a lot of people find them too hot but I just can't imagine anything else being as comfortable for walking/climbing into rides. I am taking two pairs of Skechers with me, though I'm breaking with tradition this year and taking one pair of sandals too

I saw a "I *heart* Minnie" tee at Target... would have been the perfect compliment to my "I *heart* Mickey" tee, but they didn't have one in my size

But I just ordered a cute tee from the Disney Store... can't wait for it to get here so I can see if that one fits!

- new pair of shoes to wear in the parks DONE

I ordered a pair of Orthaheel Tide flip flops... and they arrived today!

The footbed is a bit strange... it says to wear the flip flops for a bit at a time in order to get used to them. But so far I really like them! Very comfy. I've read nothing but good reviews about them, and they seem to be great for people who suffer from plantar fasciitis, as I do. In fact, so does my mom and she ordered a pair of these to try for herself.

Hopefully these will work!

Love the new flops! Keep us posted on how they're working out for you!

And for 60 days!!!!

 

[MARsMama]

Those flip flops look great, I'm anxious to hear how they work for you. I also suffer from plantar fascitis.
I worry about crocs b/c they are so slippery when they're wet, but I might go ahead with them anyway for the kids.

 

[TanzUnited99]

on it being 59 days to go!!! Your trip will be here before you know it!

Yay on most of your list being complete and I love the new flip flops! They look soo comfy.

So far, I am liking the flip flops. The info that came with the shoes said to wear them for a little bit at a time, as it may take awhile to get used to them. I've just been wearing them around the house for a little bit throughout the day but have yet to have any problems! They're really comfy.

It's that time again... here's another random WDW photo, this one from our trip last October:

Me and my DH (Shane) in front of Spaceship Earth​

Our DD10 took this photo... she's becoming very interested in photography (just like her dad!)
