Beautiful!!!!

We are not old, they are, we are not old, they are, we are not old, they are .....

You got it Babe!!!

I got this off of the DCL pic a day thread...we are sooooo close!

I even borrowed it for my wallpaper

It's a wonder that I ever get anything accomplished, between DIS DCL planning and WDW planning....

I made our ressies (most of them) for WDW dining.

Princess Storybook, Epcot breakfast 12/19
Cindy's for Lunch MK 12/20
Liberty Tree dinner 12/20
MVMXP 12/20
Pirate Lunch cruise (for the kids) 12/21
My D Girl Tea 12/22

Do you think that is enough????

We could only get lunch with Cindy on *that* day. I figure better than nothing, right Tigg???? That will be our day to eat ourselves silly and be very tired...

Next stop to call AKL concierge and see what wonderful things we can plan for our DIS pre-meet at AKL on Friday 12/23!!! Keep your eyes on this spot....for more news.....

Tigg/Jill, I'm going to try for dinner ressies for Paul and I at CA Grill on 12/31 @ 5:30pm, I figure we should plan on meeting at Cirque no going together. We'll have the kids to dump and everything too....

If you are interested dinner is Prix Fee ($100 per person) darn it, I like the sounds of $10 at Palo's much better.....

Now I can fill in my spreadsheet, the little planning freak that I am....

Are the princesses at lunch too? I know Molly will enjoy the castle if the princesses are there...without them it's just a fancy restaurant (more adult like when I went without the characters.)

Dinner for my group will prob be at the hotel (SOG.) Mom-any thoughts on dinner for NYE?

I like the idea of the pirate cruise, the kids'll have a ball! The cruise gives them pirate gear (they did anyway- a mickey ears pirate bandana at least.) I think that'll be Wilson's favorite

Dinner on NYE Hmmmmmmmmmmmm. I don't even know what I'm eating tommorrow.
Isn't planning your forte.
I love it when some one else does the planning.

 

[tiggerwannabe]

I'm filling in my October spreadsheet

Busch Gardens Halloween party for 10/9
Epcot on 10/10
USF on 10/12
10/12 evening Blues concert at Hard Rock Live
(free with Rose's USF AP)
IOA Halloween Horror Nights 10/13
All that only gives us two full days to do nothing
(can you say Bahama Mama? )

There are soooo many concerts there that week;
My Chemical Romance and Alkaline trio at HOB
Henry Rollins is at HOB
Our Lady Peace is at Hard Rock Live
and Queensryche is at HOB
(I still only really wanna do the free one)

NYE?

I'll have to look into that one for ya Ma-I was only asking if you had a preference.

 

[nskjerven]

yes the Princesses show up at the other one...in mass I think we really need to do it...It's in Epcot, in Norway...in a castle....they are Norweigan (DH side) so it's kinda a cultural thing.
Oh that was breakfast....

you asked about Lunch, yes it's the same thing....They extended Cindy's to lunch also since so many people wanted to do it...That was the only time slot availble. I'll try for another day, but not sure when. The calendar really gets filled up quickly, ya know.

Ha, Jill, I wish I had a Tigg in my family to make MY PLANS!!!! okay, I did, she got the NYE going, and she's in charge of ship board parties, although, I have the feeling that we will be milling around and partying the whole time....

 

[domiii]

What is USF, please? Busch Gardens on my B'day!!!

 

[tiggerwannabe]

I like Norway, we've eaten there twice

I've never done the princess breakfasts-only Crystal Palace and 1900 Park Fare.

We ate at the Castle pre-princesses...I have another project on my list-to scan some more of my pics from that year. At least get you the one's from our castle lunch.

and Technically-you do have me -we're sisters remember!

sorry Kar, I'm acronym happy, USF = Universal Studios Florida

 

[tiggerwannabe]

[trinibjill]

Nan, you may borrow my beloved DD to plan to your hearts content. I don't think you would have another worry in the world.

I'm drowning in a sea of posts....
Record high here today--102 w/ a STRONG south wind. But it looks like Mother Nature is looking over us...fall is to start tomorrow, high 69, 82 is highest high for next 10 days...I love fall.
Went to Talbots to try & find some new capris for the cruise...sale...none here. Gonna check online after this.
Not much else. Jazzercise flake here...just so dead tired after work these days. Don't remember being THIS tired after work since I was pregnant--NO I AM NOT PREGNANT! Gees, just glad to get past sleepless nights and chasing toddlers!
Well, better go run over to Talbots site...I'll check in

Hi Gang,

Mel and I just got back from a meeting about Jesse's confirmation. They have to do a year-long community service project, as yet undetermined. There are only about 11 kids this year. Chad made his confirmation with over 30 other kids in our parish, 6 years ago. Then I put on the news and see Jetblue in trouble in the air. My brother, who's in the air force, says that it will probably be a safe landing, not a fireball. He says it has a lot to do with how the pilot brakes. I don't know about any of that, I'm just holding my breath watching.

I played a naughty joke on Chad. He said he wanted to go to Orient Beach to see what it's like to be on a nude beach, as an observer he said. Ok, I can understand that, healthy 19 year old guy wants to see a bunch of hot naked babes. So I go to an Orient Beach website, find a photo of an older, chubby couple, and I send it to him. He didn't respond to my email. So I went to his room and asked him if he's still interested. He said "you're disgusting"! I know, my bad!!! But it was so funny!

Ok, that jetblue plane just landed safely. Phew! I'm a nervous flyer (without my xanax), and I was imagining what those poor scared people were going through. Anyway, their nightmare is OVER!

Kris, your getting cruise capris reminds me that I don't have any decent shorts.

Does anyone wish they didn't have to go to work tomorrow??

 

[nskjerven]

1. Plan and ressie my last PS @ WDW
2. Plan and detail in my spreadsheet the parks
3. Oh my gosh I haven't started my packing list yet
4. Make sure the housesitter is on for the 10/28-30 DLand trip
5. surf the dis boards
6. decide what other places we want to eat at in WDW
7. Call AKL & see what kind of great event we can plan for Friday night for all of us (I was thinking of seeing if we can Magical event something???)
8. Make final Santa gift decissions
9. Make sure my DH is invovled in some of this so if I blow up he can handle it.
10. Make a note to get Xanax (yes I'm serious)
11. Work on Skj*world* Bon voyage save the date invite
12. Oh my gosh, how can I work today????
13. I still have more but I can't type anymore or I'll freak myself out.

Jill: I booked parasailing at 10:30 am for me. Not sure if I'm ready to really do it or not, but I didn't want to miss the spot...After I read my Navs I'll final confirm.

Is this time good for you? If you want a different time let me know.

[nskjerven]

Are you wondering why I'm still awake????

I figured no use in going to bed, I'm going to try to get Cindy's ressie for 90 days (tomorrow) I have to be up at 4am...only 20 minutes. Man I'm going to be screwed tomorrow.

 

[nskjerven]

Good news or not.

I got my Cindy's ressies, but it is for the next day...I should have stayed up last night for the right day. So I have it double booked now. We have to decide if we do a really busy day with food at MK, or split it and miss pirates cruise for the kids. I'm inclined to over book, but who knows we don't have to decide tonight, so forget it. Maybe some fairy dust will come my way and I'll get an early ressie for 12/20 like we want...

I guess calling conceirge is on the top of the to do list for tomorrow...

I was thinking of sending the CM that helps me there some mickey cookies, ya think?? Did I tell you I got this great cookie press for $5 not used, new in the box...my friend at Yahoo surfs the internal board and he finds great stuff all the time. PAys to have people in low places....

Oh my, 4:40am, I'm giddy, I'm so tired.

See ya tomorrow afternoon when I get up to pick up the kids from school at 3pm.

Bye,

N

Kayla, my niece and I want to parasail too!! At least I think I do. May we join you?
