A Pre Thanksgiving/Christmas Vacation, Our First Split Stay & Our 5th Trip to Disney!


I can't believe we are at 20 days today in our Disney countdown and will be in the TEENS tomorrow!:cool1:


:cool1:20 Days :cool1:

I am in denial to change my siggie - as well a bit upset my mickey path ticker isn't working - I don't want to have to start a new one - tink had travelled so far!
 
Hi, just joining in, what fun to read through all these pages of planning!
I am a toast and pb lover! It got me through my pregnancy when it was all i wanted to eat, it is really yummy!

I love your scrapbooks too. Very creative and what a great reminder of your trips and how the boys have grown.
 
Wow, you're getting so close! I'm jealous! We are still in the 70's for days left:sad2: Oh well, it will come soon enough!
Have a good day at the fields...you're lucky the sun is shining, here in MA it is chilly and pouring and has been all day!

Your time will fly by too and your trip will be here before you know it!! :goodvibes

It was freezing at the soccer fields. The sun being out was nice, but it didn't help that the wind was blowing like crazy. :sad2:

Hope your rain stops soon!:wizard:

I'm a little ticked off too about my mickey path tickers. . . What's up??? :confused: I checked their website and they seem to be up and running, so why are our tickers all missing?

:welcome: Glad to have you, thanks for reading! Hope you are enjoying! :goodvibes

Another warm pb eater! :upsidedow I can't believe there are so many of you!! :rotfl:
 
Well, I'm up to my eyeballs in suitcases, summer clothes, Disney pins, and tiny toiletries!!! :rotfl:

I decided I should hit the packing pretty hard this week since the next 2 weeks are going to be crazy busy.

Here's the mess I am currently contending with!:eek:

Okay, so far I have packed:

DH's DRAWERS!!! :laughing: Yes, I bought him a brand new pack this weekend just for vacation and washed them and packed them! DH's shorts, shirts, and swimming trunks. DH's park bag. My park bag, my swimsuit, and my shorts. The kids shirts, shorts, swim trunks, fanny packs, lanyards & pins, and sunglasses. The airbed and sleeping bag. Some extra clothes hangers (there are never enough at the resort). And all of our food items.

Lots more to do!! :yay:
 
I agree...just keep that door shut and don't worry about rushing your packing!! I love having all my stuff out like that!! I have that WDW Bag too----love it!!!!

I love having it all out like that too! But I hate tripping over it in the middle of the night! :rotfl:

I got that bag a few trips ago. . . I think it was something like buy $40 worth of stuff, get the bag for $10. . . Does that sound right?

I wonder if the gift shops are running any kind of special now. . . :yay:

Phew! That's a load off his mind I'm sure! :laughing: Did you remember yours??? :laughing: Wouldn't that be a hoot!

No, I didn't pack mine yet. I better get on that. It wouldn't be quite as funny if I forgot mine, would it?! :laughing:
 
Okay, so the crazy Disney dreams started last night. You know them. You all have them shortly before your trips too, right? Please tell me you do and that I'm not crazy!!

So we were in MK and going to ride BTMRR. It was just DS8 and I that were going to ride (which is weird, usually DS10 rides with me). DH was there just hanging out. There were only about 8-10 people in line. I remember taking a picture to show you guys just how uncrowded is was. :rotfl:There were no CM's working at BTMRR. You just went in and loaded on the train and it took off. Then afterwards we walked through a crazy looking door and we were in Canada in Epcot. :confused3 DH was talking to a CM and DS8 and I sat down at a table and someone brought us some pizza and corn on the cob. Oh, and our neighbor boy was there.

CRAZY, right??? Why were MK and Epcot connected? Why was BTMRR empty? Why were we given pizza and corn on the cob? In Canada? Why was the neighbor kid in Epcot? AND WHERE WAS DS10???

:faint:

:rotfl2: That's funny Shelly!! --Before my last trip, I dreamed I got off the airplane in Oralndo, and everyone was staring at me. I just couldn't understand why, until...I passed by a mirror and discovered I was only wearing my bathrobe and socks!! Apparently I had been so concerned about packing all my clothes in my suitcase, I forgot to put them on ME!! :lmao:

I later realized I probably had that dream because it was a long trip, a very large suitcase I packed REALLY EARLY, and I had been worrying about having enough clothes to wear before leaving and what I should wear on the plane! :upsidedow :rotfl:

I agree - the BEST kind of mess! :cloud9:

Uhoh...:rolleyes1 Beware of early packing, and crazy dreams that might follow!! :rotfl2:
 
No, I didn't pack mine yet. I better get on that. It wouldn't be quite as funny if I forgot mine, would it?! :laughing:
Well the fact you have packed anything of substance puts you leagues ahead of me!! I have a box to ship down Friday and that is the only thing I have completed. Right now I have Halloween costumes under lanyards, under toiletries...and all of those things are piled on top of the suitcase-not even in them!!! Ack, now that I have done all of the planning it is time for the rest of the fam to join in...instead my DD has the flu and DS is causing trouble at school.

I am off from work Friday...I will pack then...at least that's what I keep telling myself.
 
yeah...I got that bag with a shopping purchase too... I think it was $40 spent and the bag for $10...something like that! I got the afghan last year..it was sooooo cute..and we had that $200 gift card, so I got all our souvies for our family at home in one store and got the afghan!!! It's got Mickey and Minnie in front of the castle with Tink at the top. Love it!

:lmao: That's hilarious!! I'm surprised I haven't had a dream like that. I do tend to obsess about packing enough clothes!

Well it sounds like you have everything out and ready to pack anyway!!

Friday's the day - packing day!! :yay:

I hope your DD is feeling better:hug: and your DS isn't being too mischievous. I know, little boys can get that way sometimes! :upsidedow

Hmm. . . I wonder how I missed this afghan in January??? I WANT ONE!!! :sad:
 
I really expected my tickers to be back today. :mad:

I think I am at 18 days, but I am really thrown off and confused now! :rotfl:

:lmao: now that's a fine mess you've got yourself into :laughing: I love it!! Just think though, once you've sorted it you'll be on your way to disney :banana: Keep posting photos like that, it's totally cheered me up and got me excited about our trip too after a rubbish day at work :hug:

I gave up and pushed it all into a corner in my bedroom! :laughing: I'll get back to it soon I'm sure! :goodvibes

Sorry you had a bad day at work.
 
Guess what I just bought?!

Star Wars in Concert tickets!! :darth:

http://www.starwarsinconcert.com/

I found out about it from a DISer friend and looked it up and sure enough it is coming to Pittsburgh in November.

Normally we wouldn't spend money on anything like this right after vacation, but Star Wars is the kids absolute favorite thing in the world!! And it is going to be a surprise. We aren't going to tell them until that day and it is going to be their Christmas present from DH and I. So the gifts under the tree will all be from Santa. :santa: Usually they are about half from us and half from Santa. Oh, and the gifts will be half the amount of what they usually get!! :rotfl:Dang those SW tickets are expensive! :eek:

I would have preferred to go to the Daughtry concert that is 3 days before our vacation but I couldn't justify spending the money. Then I end up spending twice the money for Star Wars tickets. :rolleyes: :faint:
