Man! I just caught up on a bunch of pages of your PTR, and I couldn't figure out why there was no "multi-quote" button. Then I go to post a reply, and I realized I wasn't even signed in!I hope I can remember everything I wanted to comment on!
----------------------------------------------------------------
Evidently I missed a page or two early on. Thanks for posting that link to the Josh McNeil story. I had read about most of those things, but not in that much detail. I will have to pass that link along so all my fellow VOL fans can feel better that the "snake" is gone! LOL!

I love all of your Disney Store and Alumni Hall purchases! Ever since I read about Becky taking her girls to the Perfectly Princess Party, I am dying to take my girls (who are WAY too young, but I still want them to go!). I am going to keep an eye on the calender, and I'm going to probably make a point to take them to something. I am going to be taking a sewing class at Jo Ann's on Cedar Bluff at some point, so maybe we can make a day of it, if I can get the sewing class and Disney Store events to happen on the same day.
I SO need to get back to Alumni Hall. They have the best stuff. You remember that dress of Sarah Kate's that I told you I really liked? I saw one almost exactly like it at Cracker Barrel this weekend. It's that orange and white striped jumper (almost a seersucker fabric), with an embroidered "T" at the bottom, on the left side, I think. The best part? The diaper cover has "GO VOLS" across the bottom! AH! Cuteness! I have no idea why I didn't buy it. Yes, I do. They didn't have a size smaller than a 2T, and I need my girls to match! Caroline is just getting into 2Ts, but Ella Kate (great minds name their kids Kate!)is just in 3-6 months. I would have bought a 9m or 12m if they had it, but I guess all they stock are toddler sizes. I'm going to have to go back and buy it, though. I can't stop thinking about it.
Cracker Barrel had a bunch of great stuff. Generally they just have all super country stuff, but this weekend, I could have spent a ton! And probably would have if my DH hadn't been with me.To make this really long Cracker Barrel story more Disney-fied, they had a book that was like a princess encyclopedia! It had all the princesses listed, and all the different facts about each one. I'm thinking that it needs to be in Caroline's Easter basket.

Yay for CBR! I hate that your cutting the WDW portion of your trip short, but at least you'll be at the beach! You'll be combining my 2 favorite vacations!
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I am typing this from my Macbook, and I will tell you that there are very few things I love more. I would sleep with it, if people wouldn't think I was too loony. I LURVE it! The only thing that would make it better? If it was pink!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I have the VB laptop case in Pinwheel Pink (I also LURVE pink and green!!!). I think it's a little on the small side, but other than that, it's great.
Whew! I think I did it. Well, I'm sure I missed something, but my mind is too tired to think anymore.
Cracker Barrel is sooo dangerous! My MIL used to work there and everytime I would go in there I would pick out like 5 things for her to buy with her discount. My entire kitchen is decorated in stuff from Cracker Barrel!
That stinks that they didn't have the dress in Ella Kate's size. It sounds super cute! I fell in
with Macs when I was in college b/c that's what we used in all of my Education courses. The next desktop we buy will definitely be a Mac! Yes, I am super excited to be combining Disney and the beach! DH is pumped about it, too. He is more of a kick-back-and-relax type of vacationer, so he is really looking forward to that portion of the trip. I think it will be refreshing. Give us some time to recharge our batteries before driving home.
You'll love CBR!!Sounds like you are doing our trip from last year... We always visit DH's brother & family when we are in Florida. We fly in & out of Tampa, spend a weekend with them, go to Disney for a week and have them join us for the last weekend at Disney. And last year we did all that at CBR!
I need to go read your TR from last year. Sounds like it will get me prepared for our trip!
Hi Julia! Just finished reading your PTR. Your kids are soooo cute! Yay for CBR and spending time with family. My brother lives in Orlando and we try to hang out a night or two when we're at the world. We've stayed at CBR twice and loved it. It's a beautiful resort and you are sure to enjoy it! If it weren't for the 40% code, we'd probably be staying there again.
Sorry to hear that your little ones are sick. My little one has asthma and had RSV at 18months. It is such a nasty virus. I hope the kids are much better today.
Hi! I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed CBR! I tried to convince DH to do the Poly with the code....he would rather have the gift card.
Next time, though...... 
The kids are doing a little better now. DS has asthma also, and we've been using his inhaler a lot the past few days. He hates it, but it helps him SO much. I'll be very glad when the sickies are gone!
I can't believe how far behind I am. First, I hope Dakoda is better and that Sarah Kate stayed healthy.
Second, woooooo hooooo on a new computer. I love my laptop. I had a desktop for years and now that I have a laptop I don't want anything else.
Third-------ON CBR
Thanks! SK ended up getting RSV, too.
They're both still pretty sick, but hopefully will start getting better soon. I am SO excited about the laptop! I've been wanting one for years.
102 days for me -- 96 for you!!!
LOL about another change in plans. I'm having trouble keeping up. 
It sounds like we do have an awful lot in common! That is really cool that we will be in the same parks on the same days! I bet we will pass each other at some point. If you see me, give me a wave!
