A Very Scary Merry Birthday Celebration!

[weezy26nm]

8 Months from today we will be flying to Florida !!!!! Ya I'm just a little excited. This will be my 3rd trip. The 1st being in 2006 and the 2nd in 2010. Ok let's get this party started. We want to overlap Halloween and Christmas and we just happen to have a birthday in the middle.

Therefore the when:
Oct 28 - Nov 11, 2012

Just a couple of weeks ago I put a deposit on a 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom pool home about 15 - 20 mins from Disney. I'm super excited about this. Hopefully it is as nice as it looks in the pictures and not just a grassy knoll on the side of a hill (which is what my DH said it will probably be) As I'm sure you will see (or from my previous unfinished TR) he is not the most positive person you will run into.

The who:
Me: Nancy 46 (will be 47 just before we go on this trip)

DH: Darrin 46 (will be 47 in April)

DSister: Debbie 49 (will be 50 in Aug)

DD: Nicole B 25 (will be 26 in Sept)

DD Nicole B's DBF: Zach 26

DSD Nicole M 22 (will be turning 23 on this trip, Nov 9)

DS Taylor 14 (will be 15 in April)

Congrats on your PTR.

I was looking at your schedule and it's impressive that you have everything planned. But, since you are going during the ultimate crossover period of the year, for WDW, I didn't see an EPCOT Food & Wine day.

Is this on purpose or just not planned yet?

 

[Skeleton Jack]

Well well well what have we here? I hope you all are looking forward to my parallel trip report letting you know what weezy (mom to me!) leaves out Do I not get to be involved in planning now that I don't live at home??

 

[FairestOfThemAll]

I love the pics; they all seem to be taken in WDW. It's funny how the girls are almost all pictured with props (inside stores or under umbrellas) and the guys had to be caught with food. All families are the same, aren't they?

Sounds like a fun trip!

 

[FairestOfThemAll]

A very fitting question for you to ask, Skeleton Jack.

 

[silverhaze269]

I have to say, Howdy neighbour! And congrats on your upcoming trip! I'm planning a trip pretty much exactly the same time as you and your family are, which I think is pretty cool. What are the odds, someone else from NS, going to Disney at nearly the same time, and is also on the DIS?

Anyway, happy planning!

She snuck in this PTR without me even knowing! The nerve!

I guess I was so worried about Halloween and Christmas, I never even really thought about that. Might have to look into it

Don't worry us girls like to eat too

I never thought to mention it to her as I didn't think I really had anything all that exciting to say yet LOL Plus I have to be careful not to reveal any of the suprises!!!

That is amazing. Where in NS are you from? Congratulations on your trip as well.

 

[Skeleton Jack]

I'm from Halifax I'm jealous of you guys getting to go to the WWoHP ...I went last May and it was fantastic! Have you been there yet?

Yes we went in 2010, except for DSD Nicole M. So this will be her first time and she is a Harry Potter fan.

From what I've read, if you want to meet a character at the MNSSHP you go right to that area and get in line.

That's really exciting! It sounds like you guys are going to have a blast!

I am excited for her to see it!!! FINALLY! Someone who can TRULY appriciate it with me

You need to change your ticker, Nicole is 22 and Darrin will be 47 tomorrow.

 

[weezy26nm]

200 days!
I went back to work Monday, so it is cutting in to my Dis-ing time.
Waiting for November hours, for Be Our Guest to open and the Wishes Dessert Party.

Wahoo for 200 days!

I'm hoping the hours will be available next week...I'm keeping my fingers crossed and trying to wait patiently

From what I've heard, I feel like if BOG is going to be open in October, they won't release ADR's until mid August...that's what happened with the two new restaurants in Epcot last year. I guess we'll have to wait and see though

 

[weezy26nm]

and now Taylor will be 15 tomorrow. which reminds me I'll have to change my own.

 

[weezy26nm]

Tomorrow will be the 6 month mark for us it's also my son's 15th birthday I've been back to work for 3 weeks now, thus the disappearance from here. That and the fact that there is really nothing happening trip wise. I do have a tenative schedule now that park hours are out:
