A Summer Wedding and a Disney Trip CANCELLED, HELP DECIDE WHEN WE'LL GO IN 2011

[mickeystoontown]

It looks like ya'll had so much fun dress shopping. Your dress is stunning and you look wonderful in it. I think you did a good job picking out the bridesmaids' dresses because I like the second set too!

Hi Pam!! I feel so out of the loop as I haven't been on the boards this weekend. I had my H1N1 flu shot on Thursday and I felt like I had the flu for the entire weekend! Maybe the 2 aren't related at all, who knows. Also, I had set my Dis subscriptions up for instant email notification, but I haven't gotten any of those, either. What's happening???

Anyways, I absolutely love your dress and you really look beautiful in it! The bridesmaids dresses are gorgeous, too!! I had purchased my dress on ebay, but now I don't know. I spent $53 on it and I love it, but it's about 2 sizes too small. At the time I bought it I was steadily losing weight and now I'm not. Granted I can always re-sell it and do something different, but I really love it. I'm still up in the air about that one!

We had our engagement portrait done on Saturday and I should have the proofs sometime this week. Oh my!! So much to do!!!! I still haven't been able to get on the Honeymoon Registry to browse, how about you?

Well, good luck with both Lizzie and Sam. Ugh! What a week!!!

Ugh..the dentist!! NOT FUN! I wish you the best of luck!

Oh, thanks! I am not looking forward to it. We'll be there at 9:30 tomorrow morning!

Thank you! We did have fun and are all happy with our dresses.

Oh, that stinks about the flu shot. I do hear that a lot of people don't feel well after them. I don't know, we don't get them!

Ooo, engagement portraits. That sounds like fun! I hope you're going to show us when they come in!

Thanks for the luck, Sam will need it tomorrow!

So Lizzie's hearing appt. went ok. She did show mild to moderate hearing loss in both ears, but they also said she had fluid in both ears. They want me to see her pediatrician and see if it's allergies or he wants to start her on a decongestant to clear that up and then they want to retest her. They think her hearing may be fine once the fluid clears up. I hope so! Maybe she has allergies and always has fluid in her ears. That would make sense, cause the rest of us all have asthma and allergies!

As for Sam, well, we know how her appt. is going to turn out tomorrow But.... she is excited to have her first tooth fairy visit

I think tomorrow we'll do a calm Disney night. We'll see what's on for movies, nothing big, but enough to get Sam excited! I'll tell them I booked the trip and we'll make our countdown calendar! We'll make it a little "spooky" because of MNSSHP!!!! Oooo, I can't wait

AND OUR RINGS OUR IN! Manny didn't realize he had a message on his cell phone from a few hours ago, and it was them! But now i'm calling and there is no answer, so I think we're going to have to wait til tomorrow!

 

[Victoriasmom98]

That is sooo exciting about the rings!!! It's too bad Manny didn't realize what the message was or you could have had them photographed, uploaded and shown to us all by now!! Yes, I know --- it's all about us Disfriends!!

Keep us posted on Lizzie. Hopefully it's something as simple as allergies. Oh, I meant to tell you I love your save the date cards. That's not something I'm doing......Lord knows I've been talking about the wedding so much that everyone in North America must know by now!!! After reading everyone's posts on QSDP vs. DDP, I am now confused as to what I want to do. I just think paying OOP for the TS meals I want would be more expensive than getting the DDP upgrade. I don't know.

Thanks! Ya know, the funny thing is that, that is exactly what I was thinking too. Oh my god, I gotta get them rings and get good pics so I can post them here. That is sick

Oh, how I love my disfriends!!!!! We are the only ones who understand each other's sick obsessions to make tshirts 8 months in advance, make our packing lists 7 months out, have every day planned out to a T at 6 months out, start packing at 5, getting really restless at 4 months to go, daydreaming about Disney and getting nothing else in life done at 3 months out, getting extremely upset and are ready to leave at 2 months and then having everything waiting by the door and ready to go at 1 month cause everything else is done. WOW SORRY, JUST GOT ON A ROLL THERE Kinda like that 5 golden rings christmas song!

Just wanted to tell you that I just did the registry. It was FUN!!!! They asked me for my Disney reservation number and some general questions and then I got to it!
I put a bunch of stuff on there. The resort, the park tickets, Typhoon Lagoon, Disney quest, mini golf, the photopass cd, the Wishes Cruise, surrey bike rentals etc... you get the point. Everything I want to do while in Disney is on there! Not that i'm expecting the whole thing to get paid off, but I figured i'd lay it all out there

I think besides that I will register at Target for a few things, but just a few things, this way it will give people who want to bring a gift to the shower an option other than donating to the Disney trip! But, I, along with my bridesmaids will be stressing that I really want the honeymoon paid off!!! THEY ARE IN ON IT, DON'T WORRY!!!

 

[mommytothreeboys]

Very cool about the registry! I didn't even know that was available!

Can't wait to see the rings!

Good news about Lizzie's ears...hopefully it will all clear up and will be nothing to worry about.

Thinking of Sam today as she goes to the dentist. Lots of Pixie Dust!

 

[3princesses+aprince]

Thanks, Missy!!


We did very good at the dentist today! Sam sat on my lap and was very nervous at first, but their dentist is so awesome. She just let him do what he needed to do and we were out of there in 15 minutes! Now she has her tooth in this nifty little container and it's ready for the tooth fairy tonight!!! She's very happy that it's over. I think it was worse worrying about it all week than it actually was.


Also, I was thinking...... Ugh, i'm always thinking about this damn trip and changing things! I'm really thinking about Suite and how that would be really nice instead of two rooms and when I asked Manny, he said he'd really like to try the suite too. Oh, I don't know! It does sound good to have the fridge. We won't really need the microwave, but in May we sure did wish we had a fridge for our refillable mugs and all of those applesauces and grapes we had left over from all of our meals. So, that would be nice!

Now, Janine and Ann, we can still have our dismeets, they just won't be at the POP pool if we go with All Star Music.

I posted a question about the buses at All Star Music on the resorts board. I stayed at Movies and being the last resort we didn't pick up at other resorts on the way to the parks, do you have to make stops before the parks at the other resorts? Or is that just on the way back?

Also, instead of 8 nights, I may cut it down to 7 because if we're driving we are taking an extra day to do that at the beginning and end of our trip. I really don't care how many days of school my kids miss, because I think family vacations are invaluable and much more important in life than anything else, but Anthony will be in 8th grade and his mother isn't the happiest about missed days of school. So, I think for everyone's happiness we'll go for 7 nights. Which is fine with me when I think about it cause, I have no idea how much of the trip will be paid for with the honeymoon registry and how much i'll owe in the end. So that will cut costs just a little!

ok, well that's that for now!!!!

WE'RE GOING TO MAKE OUR COUNTDOWN CALENDAR TONIGHT!!!

 

[Twoboysnmygirl]

Pam, what are your dates again??? We're at ASMU family suites from the 25th-Oct. 2! I went back and forth too, not on the hotel, b/c I really want to try ASMU, but on the rooms! I couldn't decide and finally I think I've settled on the suite. It's 200$ more, but Rey and I will have our own room!

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.........I'm feeling so abandoned!!!!!!!!

 

[Twoboysnmygirl]

Ann, I think you should move over to ASMU so you don't feel abandoned!!

 

[mommytothreeboys]

Hooray for a successful Dentist visit! My son would like to mention that the tooth fairy pays better for teeth that have to be pulled! He had one pulled last year and has two more coming out this week. The tooth fairy may just go broke!

 

[Victoriasmom98]

Ann, I think you should move over to ASMU so you don't feel abandoned!!

I would, but I hear the buses are just a mess and that it takes forever as all of the all stars share buses! The price is the same, so that wouldn't matter....oh thanks Karen!!! I now have to think of something else.....but Pam is not certain she's converting to ASMU........man, oh man....if I would just not overthink this whole thing I'd be all set!!!!

I should take this over to your PTR, but I won't! I have read many reports that the buses are great! Apparently they don't share during busy times, just in the middle of the day, and since there are less people at ASMU, you actually wait less than at POP! Think about THAT!

I understand though, we will most likely have a car b/c Rey will have to drive Dylan down, so I'm not terribly worried about the buses anyway!

My dates are the 19th to the 27th!!! We will there for 2 days together!

Oh, no, don't feel abandoned, i'm not sure yet anyway!

Ann, I think you should move over to ASMU so you don't feel abandoned!!

LOL

Oh, yes, the tooth fairy does pay more for teeth that need to be pulled! Sam's waiting for Disney cash!

Oh, we didn't have a problem with the buses in May. So i'm not worried about that, I was just wondering what order the buses picked up and Music is 2nd, and Movies are 3rd, but we never got picked up in the morning with the bus already half loaded, it was always an empty bus. It's just the stops on the way back from the parks, but Music is the 2nd. Even with Movies being 3rd, it wasn't a problem. Those resorts take 2 minutes to get to the next.

Whew! This is quite the debate we got going on here. I wonder what Janine will think!

I'm not sure though, I really do want to stay at POP, I just want the Suite! Gosh, I wish they were at POP!!!!

GUESS WHAT!!!! Manny just went out to get the rings!!! Oh, boy, I cannot wait. First i'm going to go show his parents!!!! My Mom has already seen pictures! Then I promise to take pictures of them both tonight and post them here! We were all going to go get them ,but Sam's novacaine started wearing off a little while ago and she wasn't feeling to hot. So he just went. I gave her some tylenol and now we're doing much better. That damn tooth bled all day! I'm glad that is done! Now, I have to keep telling her to stop jumping all over the couch! Kids are crazy!

Also, Manny's parents just gave me today a list of family members that I have never even met that they would like to come to the wedding! Ugh, I need to go get some more save the date cards. I'm going to go to Michaels and just pick up a boxed set and print them at home and get them out this week. So, we may have a bit more people than originally expected!

 

[Victoriasmom98]

yay oh yay!!! We're gonna see the rings, we're gonna see the rings.....I'm sooooo excited!!!!

PAm, I love all of the dresses! Yours is beautiful-- the fabric looks so nice and summery! I also love the girls' dresses-- perfect for the fourth of July! Are the girls going to get cute flowergirls dresses??
Sorry to hear about Sam's tooth troubles! Disney cash should MORE than make up for it, though!
