----ITINERARY----
as promised, i'm sharing our plans with you guys. these are subject to change (as always). since we're not staying very long, i doubt they'll change very much, if at all. by the way, i pretty much let erin decide what we were doing and where we were eating and then i just decided the best times to do it! poor tara is just subject to our schedule because i didn't know she'd be with us when we made it, so i didn't get a chance to get any input from her. luckily she's okay with everything though!
here ya go.....
-friday, september 21st-
*we're leaving georgia that afternoon, hopefully by 3:00 pm, but it just depends on what time we both get off work. we didn't ask off because we could only afford one day's vacation, so we're both just hoping to skip out early!
*hopefully we'll arrive in orlando around 11:00-ish. tara's plane doesn't land until 11 (or something like that) and we can't check in without her, so we're gonna hang out at DTD while we wait.
*i made an ADR at planet hollywood for 11:45 so we could just hang out and get some late-night appetizers. i still have a $15 voucher from last may that doesn't expire until january, so we're gonna use that! we're paying OOP for this meal. and hopefully i'll be bringing some leftovers back to OKW for pregnant tara to munch on!
-saturday, september 22nd-
*wake up early and head to the poly for an 8:10 breakfast ADR at kona cafe.
*MK until late afternoon. probably get lunch at pecos bill's or casey's (or whatever else we want!) if we're tired, we'll go back to OKW to take a nap at some point.
*back to MK for 5:30 ADR at crystal palace and to watch spectro and wishes!
-sunday, september 23rd-
*wake up and head to MGM with breakfast either at goods to go at OKW or abc commissary
*lunch at '50's prime time cafe at 11:25
*break in the afternoon
*head to poly for peep meet at 4:30 on the beach, then dinner with the peeps at 'ohana's at 5:00!
*back to MGM for fantasmic
*MK for EMH til 11:00
-monday, september 24th-
*wake up early (again) and head to AK for morning EMH (breakfast probably at goods to go)
*have lunch either at pizzafari or flame tree (tusker house will be closed)
*leave around 1:00 or so...
*walk in the front door and start counting the days until our april trip!
SHOPPING UPDATE!!!
i received my first item ordered specifically for this trip today!!!! since i won't have my pack mule (also known as DH) with me this time, it seems i'll be the one actually carrying things around the parks.....
i didn't want to go with the back pack we had last time because it's kinda big. so i felt the need (of course) to buy something new. i found a cute little black bag on lillianvernon.com for like $20 and jumped on it. check it out.....
please ignore the dorky girl in the picture. she sometimes hops in my pictures and i still haven't figured that one out.....
as you can see, i put everything in there that i thought i'd need. the only things not included were my ponchos (because i haven't bought them yet) and my camera (because i was using it). i think it'll do!
and check out this back compartment.....perfect for my autograph book and my cell phone!
okay.....so when do we leave???????
by the way, i have a question for you guys. does anyone have any suggestions for carrying my mickey ears? last time i wore them around my neck when i didn't have them on and i'm afraid i'm stretching the elastric chin strap out. i could very easily attach it by the chin strap to my bag, but i think i'd be doing the same thing. any ideas???

Hey...that "girl" that keeps popping up in your pictures... has she lost weight since her last Disney trip? Or, am I being just a dope? 
i can't stand them!!! i was just to a point that i was not happy with my body and i decided to do something about it before i had kids. i know, i know.....doesn't make much sense to lose the weight *before* i have a child, but it's just something i had to do!
i think we're leaning towards having one maybe within a couple years. i don't have pregnancy coverage on my insurance because i'm self-employed. i'm hoping for a HUGE raise within the next couple of years when the circuit i work in gets a fourth judge because that'll mean i'll have my own judge. if that happens, then we'll probably switch me over to DH's medical insurance (since i'll be making more money and we can then afford for his paychecks to be less with that big insurance cut taken out) which has the pregnancy stuff and i can get off this dang pill i've been on since i was 19!!!!
that's so cute! thanks for joining in!!! i hope i can bring a few smiles to your face!
