I remember AWAY back when I told you it's go fast- last summer it was before the Little Mermaid play. See, you're already only a month away!!! I don't know about you, but it went incredibly fast for me!!!

I have to keep telling myself that now- for our trip!!

Neat video- THANKS!

I know... we're just missing each other. We won't be checking in until very late Friday night and I think you're leaving Saturday, right?

I do have to say that I didn't realize it was truly October - despite the calender, despite the weather - until I realized your trip was THIS MONTH!

This year just FLEW BY!

Have a great time in Disney, this MONTH!!!

Hi Kathy

sorry I haven't got a bit behind....

back to your comment several pages ago about traveling w/ the kids and then eventually as Grandparents....Matt and I see that too in our future, and truly was one of the reasons why we bought into DVC...I certainly see trips w/ all 6 of us, and then maybe just a few of the kids and then alone and then come full circle like you said. We were explaining this concept to the kids the other night after dinner, how many trips we have in our furture...and they were mesmorized by it. Kinda hard for 2 10 yr olds and an almost 7 yr old to think that far ahead...

now back to your trip....

less than 30 days...how exciting!

still loving the flashback pictures and just loved all the ones from LTT w/ the characters how fun! I guess I may be one of the few Disers who actually enjoyed eating at LTT w/ no characters maybe it's becuase we never ate there before? either way, we enjoyed it and would dine again.

Can't wait to hear the rest of the last minute spooky planning! Your trip being less than 1 month away means my trip is getting close to just 1 year away

PS will be sending you a personal update soon concerning Margaret

Actually we are leaving Sunday - but Saturday is your party day and we are going to Epcot/CRT and DTD.

Hi Jaime!

The year would fly by when you're so busy planning trips to DL, WDW, Disney cruises.... etc.

Geez, I just realized I haven't been by your reports, either. I am sooo behind with everyone..

Have a great time in Disney, this MONTH!!!

Ya-hooty!

In a way it's comforting to know that WDW will always be a part of our lives, isn't it? Honestly, I can't imagine using my points to travel anywhere else!

Awww. I don't see us doing any parks on party day... that's too bad! I'm trying so hard not to "over-plan" but there's so much I'd like to do...

Loved the LTT pictures!!!

Hip Hip Hurray and an Argh, Mateys for your trip being THIS month!!!!

Hi Kathy!!

I love all the old pictures you are posting! They are adorable. I can't believe how much bigger the kids are!

Sorry to hear the tooth has taken a "bite" out of your wallet! And Billy's bus trouble... I'm glad to hear things improved - I hope that has continued.

I'm enjoying your blog but I can't bring myself to join Twitter. I have a hard enough time keeping up with the DIS and facebook. When I read that Tour Guide Mike was on Twitter I said something outloud like, "Oh now Mike is tweeting too - I don't want to tweet, how am I going to keep up with all of this??" and Zachary started cracking up telling me to tweet! (And he started tweeting like a bird!)

I can't believe you are going this month!! Reading about your MNSSHP plans brings back a lot of memories for me of our October 2007 trip.

Hey Kathy,

BTW...not to hijack your thread but...since Julie sort of brought this up a couple of posts back...I just got a form to sign from the school nurse...double checking that David's only medical issue was Asperger's Disease......Eric had to talk me down for 10 minutes because my first impulse was to go off on the nurse (really because I was upset-how can I trust her to take care of him if he ever needs to go down there?...if she doesn't even know what the name is?)...

Just wanted to comment on this one...
Sorry you had to deal with that Patricia!! And coming from the school nurse...

Check out this site I just discovered... you can actually get GPS coordinates for Hidden Mickeys!!

I'm not on FB for the same reason; I joined Twitter because the tweets are short and sweet!

Thanks for checking out the blog, too!

Oh how fun!! We just started geocaching (using the gps to find "treasures") all around the world (though we've just gone as far as the next town over). It's so much fun. This looks like a similar type of adventure - without the box.

 

[mousescrapper]

thanks for the link....

Matt should get the biggest kick out that...he like Amy mantioned above really likes that kind of stuff...I guess one more thing to add to the packing list...GPS...

 

[eandesmom]

That is very cool! I need to try and remember that for our trip. So many things to try to remember for a trip so very far away! The E's would love that.

 

[jordanyosh]

GPS?Really?Wow. We definitely live in a different time nowadays.

That does sound like fun!

It's sounds like such a guy thing, doesn't it?

Start your list of lists!

GPS?Really?Wow. We definitely live in a different time nowadays.

I just got the biggest kick out of it... imaging using technology to find HMs! Reminds me of those guys you see on the beach with those geiger counter-thingys looking for loose change!

Now that's just cheating

You may have the coordinates, but you still have to look for those babies with your own two eyes!

I agree Kathy.

I've been surfing all over the web lately and picking up all sorts of info!

(Tricia says that "surfing the web is, like, so OUT, Mom!")

But, you all know what I mean!


So, you're trying to figure out how to get from here to there or from there to here on property using Disney transportation? The folks at Our Laughing Place have got a service called "Transportation Whiz" that can take the guessing out of your situation:

As the old saying goes, what will they think of next?


Whoops, almost forgot pic of the day:

Here's me and my best bear at Pooh Corner in Downtown Disney...
