thanks! Yea...we basically need to pack I think...maybe a few other things I'm not really thinking of at the moment.

 

[disneymom1980]

I finally got our first couple of shirts finished today. I posted pictures of them .

I have to finish the rest of our shirts and do most of our packing. We've got Girl Scout stuff going this weekend, as well as my birthday, so it could be a very busy time. I'm going to have to figure time in there for laundry as well as everything else. I'm so ready though........one more week until we leave for KC and 8 more days until we back at Disney!

Yay!!! I'll head over and check them out in a few! I think we're going to be packing this weekend b/c monday I'm cleaning the apartment, tuesday I am getting a haircut and weds I am getting a mani/pedi and thursday dh dosen't have to work unless something horribly wrong happens, but he already told them he dosen't want to be there if he dosen't have to be and they were fine by it. We have to drop perla off at the boarding place and then probably head to richmond. Although we have a afternoon flight we don't want to be worried about traffic or anything b/c its about a two hour drive so we are staying in a hotel by the airport and will just get up and park our car and go through security. Dh was fussing with shirt designs tonight...that he was working on himself...we'll see if the shirt thing happens or not. If not...like I said he told me he'd go to the shirt shop in downtown disney and make us some. I hate the time right before the trip....it makes me super stressed. Monday is last call for laundry....if it dosen't make it to the washer/dryer monday...it dosen't get washed and your s.o.l I'm not doing laundry up until the last possible second. I've been trying to wear stuff I know I don't want to take with me. I'm getting so excited!

I got my haircut today, and I think that DH is going to get one this weekend. I always get stressed about leaving something behind too.....I just hope that it's nothing important and is something that I can pick up in the hotel. I usually have a list too. I'm also trying to get things washed and then just not wear them. That's why I started packing early..........so that at least some things are pulled out of the closet.

Your ahead of the game...I'm waiting on the hair cut b/c my bangs grow super fast and I want them to be short enough for the whole two weeks...they grow like a gosh darn weed once I cut them. Dh needs to get a hair cut too! He wants me to go pick him out two ties for formal and semi formal night, but I don't want to b/c how the heck do I know what kind of tie he wants? I hate it when he sends me to pick something out that I have no idea what he wants. Like binoculars...there are like ten zillion different kinds...I put my foot down and said...will you please pick out the binoculars yourself b/c how the heck do I know what exactly he wants in a pair? And what is he going to do if he dosen't like the ties I pick? Uggg. I'm going to kohls tomorrow so I'll look, but I make no promises. At least with 60/70's we don't have to worry about frizzy hair...not that its a major concern, but that can be kind of annoying sometimes.

So, this evening dh called his mom and she said that our cruise paper work came in the mail (that is our mailing address for some reason so thats why it got sent there. I'm not sure why dh didn't change it?) Well dh wanted his mom to drop it off at his dads office tomorrow to have it over nighted to dh's office, but she is saying she dosen't want to go out tomorrow b/c the roads were bad today b/c ohio is having a lot of snow and blah blah. I told dh...its 6:30 right now...by tomorrow at nine am or so maybe the roads will be cleared? I am not trying to bad talk her, but I just don't think she should say that she can't take it tomorrow when it was only 6:30 this evening and maybe the salt trucks would be out tonight and what not. I was also cranky ( low blood sugar) so that probably had a part in my getting annoyed with her thinking. So hopefully we can get our hands on that and make sure everything is all set to go.

I tanned again today...I'm starting to get decent color...poor dh is going to need so much sunscreen so he dosen't burn at castaway cay! Don't worry I'll wear sunscreen too just to ensure I don't burn, but that sun is mean and still has a tendency to burn ya.

My shoes came today for formal and semi formal night and they fit decent, which is good. Its also good that I can walk in them! Lol. I'm tall so I never saw a need to wear heels, but the one pair of shoes I got is a pair of heels...they aren't high, but they are high enough...I can walk fine in them though. I think tomorrow evening we are going to get out the suitcases and start gathering stuff that can be packed and hopefully this weekend the bulk of the packing will be done. That would be wonderful!

Tomorrow I am planning on scrapbooking for a lot of the day...that and doing laundry. I am going to be scrapping pics from our dec disney 07' trip. Hurray! Don't get me started on the 06' pics...those aren't printed so obviously they aren't scrapped and I'm not sure why we printed 07' before 06', but we just did so thats what I'm going to work on! I'll try to post pics...don't be to judgmental...I'm still perfecting my scrapping. I think thats all for now. Oh yes, I decided that while we are in disney this time around instead of trying to go from memory I am going to write notes for our trip report and while we are on our cruise I am going to start typing up the trip report in microsoft word. Maybe I'll even post an installment or two from the ship...we'll see. I make no promises, but I'll def post when we're back on land and home safe and sound for sure!

 

[Girldreamer02]

Okay ladies and gents...we're getting down to the wire. All the laundry is done and or drying as of this evening. So everything that needs to go to disney is already packed or is drying and will be packed tomorrow! I'm about 95 percent packed and dh is...well I do believe he is about 99 percent packed...meaning basically he needs to throw his toiletries in the suitcase and he'll be in business!

We did end up deciding to make our own tee shirts...since our vacation has two parts (disney world then the cruise) we are having part one and part two tee's and when one of us wears the part one the other will wear the part two and vise versa. We went to Michaels this afternoon and ended up buying shirts there as well as the transfers since the shirts were on sale for like two bucks a piece this week! We hit that just right didn't we?! I got white and dark pink (pink is my fave color!) And he got white and black. He said he is going to do iron on the transfers tomorrow evening after work so hopefully I'll have pictures tomorrow night for ya'll! This is so exciting we've never made shirts before! We're also going to make a shirt the first night at Downtown disney and have them delivered to our resort room (dh read somewhere on the dis that you could do that so thats nifty.)

Dh got his haircut today...he was starting to look like a sheep dog so its a good thing! I'm getting mine cut tuesday and I've been tanning religiously every other day so hopefully I won't burn to bad in the bahamas. I'm also getting a mani/pedi on weds...basically just to relax a little since packing and all that stresses me out a bit. I mean who dosen't stress and why not pamper yourself a little before you go? A pre relax if you will. Lol.

Also on the disney front I am proud to say that I have scrapbooked seven pages from our December 2007 trip this week! I did four the other day and three tonight! So I'm pretty excited! I also am hoping to take pictures of those tomorrow as I will post them. I am especially super proud of the one page I did tonight...its so cute!

I think that will do it for now...I am super excited!!! We have 4 days 11 hours 11 mins and 47 seconds!

Also I've heard that the weather is going to be in the 60's and 70's and there is only one day where there is a chance of the R word so thats excellent as well since its been a little chilly here in Va!

I'll be back tomorrow night hopefully with some pics as promised!

Have fun We've still got a LONG way to go.

Hopefully I'll be able to put them up tonight! I know...I wish it would just get here already...all this waiting around is starting to drive me crazy...at least I'm keeping busy with the scrapping and all since I don't this will be our third trip to the world and I don't have the other two trips scrapped haha. At least I'm working on it though right? Thats all that matters! Oh I forgot to tell you the mia tank top turned up! My one drawer wasn't shutting all the way and dh pulled it out and there was my tank top...I filled the one drawer to much and it had got caught and fell behind the drawer so yay! Did you have a good weekend?

We did have a good weekend. Saturday DH and I went out for my birthday, and that was a lot of fun. We were going to go see a movie, but we decided against it because it was pretty late. How about you? What did you guys do?

I agree, you're working on your scrapbooks, and that's all the matters. I picked up an 8x8 Disney album that I'm going to make DH for our anniversary as a surprise. I made him one several years ago for Valentine's Day, and he still talks about it, so I hope he'll like this one just as much.

I'm so glad to hear that you found your tanktop! I've done things like that too.

We had a good weekend...saturday dh got off work early, which hardly ever happens b/c he is like his father and dosen't know how to leave the office and it drives me insane! So we had dinner and hung out and relaxed and sunday we went to get the oil changed in both our cars, ran to michaels to get those tee shirt transfers and he let me get some organization stuff for my scrapbook paper b/c I have a ton and it needs to be organized b/c it drives me nuts to have to flip through it until I finally find what I want...it takes a lot of time. He got a hair cut while I tanned and then we came home and made what was call linner (lunch/dinner b/c it was like 4:30) and he helped me scrap for a bit too before he went to bed. He helped more with the layout...I just execute the whole thing. I made a small book for dh one year for valentines day too and he loved it...it was when he was working in duluth, mn and I didn't get to see him hardly at all. I wonder where that went to? I'm sure its in our storage unit. It was so gosh darn cute!

My DH is the same way........he is an ingrained workaholic. It makes me crazy sometimes, but I just tell myself that I know I'll never have to worry about him providing for our kids because he works as hard as he has to.

I'm trying to convince DH that he needs to make an appointment to get his hair cut, but he wants to just do a walk in. I keep reminding him tha that the last 3 times he's done that he left without a haircut, but you know how men are .

Will you send me your cell number so that I have it? I'm not sure if I'll get a chance to check around here before we leave tomorrow because I have a few last minute things that I need to get taken care of.

I just checked the weather, and it doesn't look like we should have any weather delays with our flight . Aside from Wednesday, it looks like it should be pretty nice the whole week that we're in Florida. Sunday and Monday have a chance of rain, but it's only 30%. As long as it doesn't rain on our Fantasmic night, I don't care.

Okay, I'm back with pictures as I promised! We made our shirts tonight and dh made one of his shirts first, but for some reason when he pulled up the transfer the picture didn't stay...only the outline...the rest of the shirts are fine, but his white shirt has some ink on it in the corner it looks like...I'm not sure what it is, but we tried to get it off and it didn't work. Oh well...they still look pretty good for our first time doing them. If anyone knows what happened with that first shirt...let me know. I'm curious! Here are the pics!
