[magickingdom]

Hey, just joining in! I'm a Disney Bride too (WP/ADH in Jan 2007) and we're also going in December, although earlier in the month.
Your daughters are sooo cute! Can't wait to read more!

amandatym, it's nice to have a disbride along!!

Your Christmas pictures reminded me of why I really, really want my daughter to experience Disney at Christmastime. Thanks!

Won't it be so fun to see it through her eyes!!

Subbing!

Your girls are gorgeous!!

We've never been to Disney for Christmas - can't wait to live vicariously through your trip!

 

[magickingdom]

I was just reading your PTR, and I love Poly!!

Ok so here are a few Christmas Pics from the Parks...

Epcot - Candlelight Processional
We saw Marley Matlin (sp?) And funny thing she is the scheduled person for our dates this year also, how funny!! Sorry blurry pic!

Epcot - China Pavilion, Staging for Nighttime Music and Dancing, and the building being worked on in the background. I loved how it had the pic of what it looks like!

Epcot - This Gingerbread house could be found in the quick service restaurant in America

Epcot - New Years drinks and pricing, WOW!!

Epcot - A sea of people, also a good reminder of how busy and packed this time of the year is!!

Epcot - Arch of lights

MK - Christmas tree, I hear its normally over by the castle, but it was up in the front when we were there.

MK - Main Street wreaths during the day...

MK - ...And at night!

DHS - (gosh I always type MGM 1st then have to erase) Osbourne lights of course...

DHS - ...more

Sorry, no AK pics they got erased somehow...I believe we were relaxing in the rocking chairs at AKL waiting for Boma and DH was looking at pics on the camera and when he gave it back to me they were gone! I remember asking if he had anything to do with this (we also lost the DTD decoration pics), but of course he denied it...

I have been working hard at school getting my new Kindergarten room set up, I may just have to post some b4 and after pics to show!!

Happy Week Ahead to All

Update:
I received Bella's Minnie outfit in the mail yesterday, now I am just waiting for her Cinderella jacket! When they both are here I will get pictures up.

I have been thinking about how to get everything packed in the car, and I started looking into stroller rentals. There is this place I found called OrlandoStrollerRentals. Has anyone used this before? They deliver the stroller to your room and pick it back up at the end of your trip. Sounds like a good deal to me. I am looking at the Baby Jogger City Mini Double Stroller. I like the way it folds up so easy and reclines back for naps!! Does anyone have this stroller or used it before?

We borrowed the combi double stroller from a friend and it's great because it folds into itself so it's almost the size of a single when it's folded and it's lighweight. We are using it again, plus a single stroller, DH claims we only need the double, but I know better!

Boy it has been awhile. I found my PTR on page 5! So i have been busy trying to set up my classroom at school, and taking care the girls! The summer seems to be flying by along with my maternity leave!!

So on with the PTR...

I finally got Bella's Cinderella Jacket in the mail, and as promised here are the pics of the clothes I got for Bella on disneyshopping, free shipping and both on sale!!

While on the topic of clothes my sister recently bought Bella a shirt and I have saved it and snuck it into the vacation tupperware in the closet (shhh...don't tell her)!!

Now I am in search for more clothes for Meika (she's falling behind quickly), and matching animal print outfits and poly dresses for the girls! Oh and I want to have at least one Christmasy outfit for them to wear and figure out road trip clothes. And not to forget hair accessories for each outfit! Yikes, good thing I still have a few months to go!

We have been doing a lot of swimming over at my parents and I thought I would throw in a picture of Meika in her 1st swimsuit shoot (unlike Bella she actually smiles for pictures and loved her 1st swim, although Bella does enjoy swimming now) AND a cool pic of Bella jumping in the pool!

Upcoming Updates...
Car/Plane ride activities for little ones
WDW Planning CD in the Mail
Customized Park Maps
And HOPEFULLY good news back from the TA on Pin Codes and Discounts
Before and After pictures of the classroom (if I ever get it done)
MouseKeeping Envelopes

Aaaaaaw!! Your girls are just TOO CUTE!!! They are GORGEOUS!!!

we went last year in December and it was awesome. To be honest, we didn't do a lot of swimming, though some days were certainly hot enough (not all days though, we had some cold days too) We never went to the waterparks (there just wasn't time)

Our daughter was 2 1/2 nearing 3 at the time and it is really different going with children. To be honest, I think it is a lot more fun, though every thing goes A LOT SLOWER!! If you keep that in mind it will be awesome, because seeing your kids respond to all the disney magic... that is just fantastic!!

 

[magickingdom]

Both Girls are lying down and I think I might just pop in this...

I got it a couple days ago in the mail. I've watched many of these throughout the years and am wondering if there will be anything new. I thought it would get me excited anyway. What a great way to relax!!

Have a Relaxing Thursday,
Kammie

Cute pictures by the pool! I love the summer but this year can't wait for an early Christmas. It's so fun seeing what everyone is planning.

Us Wives do know better, don't we! Thank you so much for the info, I think I will be doing the stroller!!

We won't be doing water parks either, but hopefully we can get a morning or two in of swimming at the resort. I can't wait to see how Bella's reaction to everything has changed from being 1 when she 1st went. I know it will be a huge difference!!
