Anyone else? Thanks DISNEY4XMAS, NYPDwife, Mom2Kate-Anna and Raecheal for your input. There's nothing like getting ideas from fellow Disers.

So far, I think I'm agreeing with the navy and brown. I like the idea more and more, the more I think about it. I definitely don't think the white pair is the way to go.

Yup! You read correctly. I know that booking the castle for one meal is amazing. At least for me. On our last trip, we couldn't get a ressie there, and we'd always eaten their on each of our previous trips.

As you can see on my itinerary, we are going to eat there Christmas morning, for breakfast. Well, my DH suggested that we see if we could eat there for lunch, one day, as well. We've never done that. After looking over our schedule, I saw that January 1st would be best, and not only did they have it available, but they had it available for the time we wanted!!! I'm so happy. The menu didn't look bad.

This morning, I was watching some of those Disney Travel Channel shows. I believe I have every one of them recorded, at this point. Seeing them really made me want to leave for WDW now. So, what did I do? No, I didn't book an earlier trip. I sent away for the free WDW trip planning DVD. Now, we'll have something else about WDW to watch in 2-3 weeks!

Oh, I just had to add this. . .I was having one of my regular ladies' days with a group of my girlfriends the other day, and it was close to the time when we'd all be leaving. After I asked if anyone was blocking my car in, the husband of the one hosting this month's get together said, "Oh, that's your car! When I saw it in the driveway, with all the Disney stuff on it and the stuffed animals in the back window, I was trying to think which lady with kids might have that car. I forgot that you're such a Disney freak!" I laughed, and agreed with the Disney freak part, while my friends said, "Oh, you don't know her well enough if you didn't know that!" Then, we all cracked up.

All of us on here are PROUD to be Disney Freaks!!! or else we wouldnt spend so much time on here.....

I think I like the navy and brown also. Although I know I want the brown Minnie Janes with the pink strap. But I had to get DD her Tink ones 1st. They came into today and are so cute!!! She wont take them off.

I KNOW! Isn't it great?

I really do think I'm going with navy and brown. They seem to make the most sense. The brown and pink Minnie Janes are cute. I did think about those. Did you take a pic of your DD in them? They were such cute Crocs!!!

I know better than to give my DW any "clothes" advice, so your on your own from my end about the crocs ...

Besides - if you're like my DW - if I'd suggest "A", you'd go with "B" anyway ...

[They don't happen to have any crocs that come with jingle bells, do they? Just a thought ... ]

Well, she is COOL, so why not act like it? It's good that she's so happy about them.

Ah, a man of wisdom! Jingle bells. . .hmmmm. . .it looks like somebody should contact the Crocs corporation with a new idea. Never know.

Just wanted to say hi...I love those crocs. I'm a black fan (my current crocs on black it just goes with everything, and they dont get hot) but i think your choices are great!!! i still haven't gotten mine yet.. still looking

It's okay to be a Disney freak, i've been reading some peoples PJ for getting married at WDW now i'm in love.... They all have had such beautiful ceremonies.

I re-read your itenerary it looks wonderful, your going to have an amazing trip.

 

[Whipperwhirl]

I just read your whole PTR and everything is looking wonderful. I love how much thought you put into everything - even croc colors! I desperately wanted to stay AKL for out rip but the resort surfing (i.e. a lower price) sucked me in - we will ge there when the kids are older. Im hopping you will take lots of wonderful SVH room pictures! Subbing. Whip

I definitely plan to get the navy ones. I tried on a pair this past weekend and really liked them. I can't wait to go!!!

Welcome aboard! I'm glad you're liking my PTR. It's fun putting it together. I will definitely take tons of pics. I'm the picture taking queen!

I agree.. i hope everything is alright!!

I'm sorry that I went M.I.A. It all began last weekend, when my DH suggested that I get a puzzle, since I had extra time during the summer and it had been so long since I had last done one. So, what did I pick? You guessed it. . .a Disney puzzle. This one to be exact:

I just love it!!!!

If you know nothing about these puzzles, it's 1000 pieces and while the whole picture is of Mickey Mouse, it's made of thousands of miniature pictures of Disney related movies. It is absolutely awesome, though difficult at times, to put together. So, whenever I have had any spare time, I've found myself working on this puzzle, determined to finish it quickly. I'm coming along pretty well, too.

I've also been doing a lot of getting together with friends and family this past week, so I haven't been home as much.

Back to the Disney trip, we have been daily monitoring the airline prices and have been happy to see that they've been slowly dropping. My DH says, as well as many others, that the price of oil is expected to go down further after Labor Day. So, most likely, we won't be getting out airline tickets till then. But, we keep tracking flights to see what's the absolute earliest we may possibly be able to get to WDW. We're even entertaining the thought of arriving the night before, just so we have a full day at WDW on our first day. We just haven't decided if it's worth it yet. What do you all think?

Then, today, I made my first trip purchase!!! I got my Crocs shoes. Here they are:

As you can see, they are not Mary Janes. They are the typical style, but after trying both pairs on, I liked the roominess of these better. I decided to only get one pair, since I just live in denim, and they would go with whatever I plan to wear. If I need a lighter color, I will have my Crocs flip flops with me.

So, it was nice to be missed. I'm back. I kept trying to remind myself to come post, but that darn puzzle just kept pulling me away. On top of that, my DH and I just purchased a Wii system today. Needless to say, it's addicting. I finally broke away for a while, so I can get some computer time, but my DH is still playing! At least we know that we like it. Well, I'm off to check out all of your threads. I promise to be back soon.

 

[njdisneyfreak]

Well, I have checked in with a bunch of PTR, and now I'm off to play some more Wii and do more of my puzzle.

Just caught up again. I really hope we "run" into each ohter while we are there...I need a zebra dome eating partner!

I love your daily plans. I am so far behind! And I haven't repeated a person yet for ADR changes, but my day is coming I'm sure. I wonder what kind of notes they put on the computers about us??? I am sure we provide their lunchtime entertainment!

Hi! I'm glad you stuck in there and were able to get caught up. I'm going to have to hop on over to your board to see what you've been up to. It looks like we're only going to be a day apart. Don't worry about being further behind than some people. We all plan differently, and as a teacher, I have breaks like the one I have right now, where I can do more. As for the entertainment we must provide, you definitely have to wonder!

As for not repeating with the ADRs, at least there's Christmas morning. Are you joining all of us that morning at the MK, before it opens? I've never done something like that. Should be pretty cool. I just have to convince my DH to walk over with me, to where everyone is going to be.

 

[njdisneyfreak]

How much longer do I have to wait!!!! Some days are just harder than others. I would just love to skip right over the next few months, so we can head off for WDW already. Ah well. . .the time will go by quickly. Right?
