Jen-prayers for your Grandma

Theresa-

Anne Marie-sorry Katie is having a rough time- for you and her



Have a great trip!!!!!


I used to have a Christmas party every year (before kids) and I used to make these stuffed rolls. I bought frozen bread dough. I fried onions, bacon, and bell peppers. I broke up the thawed bread dough, made a circle, put a bit of the fried mix on it, folded up the sides of the circle making a roll then baked. They were really good. You can make ahead and freeze then heat up the day of the party. I think I have to make these again this year as we're doing Christmas here for the first time ever.

Did you book anything tonight?

I think this deal worked well for me. I had 6 nights booked in Jan at AKL CL with AAA room only discount. I changed that to 7 nights GV Poly with about $450 worth of tickets & $200 gift card for less than $100 more. Lizzy needs a ticket. I'll save mine for Jan 2010.

I also booked 7 nights AKL CL for 5/2 to 5/9 with 7 day tickets. I will need a new ticket for that trip and Joe will need a ticket too. So I got an extra night, regular season not value, and almost $450 worth of tickets for less than $300 more. When I called last week they said I couldn't book AKL CL with AAA so this was a great deal for me!!!!

Janet-let me know if I should add you to the room-you'd have to buy a 7 day ticket-about $233.

wow no I did not book as I am debating because of airfare and dinning.

I'm off to bed. Have a great night.

Not at $60 I won't buy that thing!! And I didn't buy the bags (sorry Kristine and Terry) because I couldn't get anyone at WDW to confirm that we would be allowed to use them!

Elin could you send me the link I want to get some anyhow

What does he like? Sweet or savory? I love the meatballs with the grape jelly/chili sauce. Veggie trays are easy. Any kind of cookie or brownies would be good. Cream puffs and mini eclairs from Costco. Buffalo wings. These are just off the top of my head.

I was thinking of veggie tray, fruit tray, chips and queso, wings maybe meatballs, little sausages, he likes teriaki marinade

Jennifer - you need to order the CD tomorrow right? If that's when, I'm going to get on first thing in the morning to finish some frames. I was still having problems getting on half the time and then just ran out of time. If you need to order tonight just go ahead without my frames, etc. Otherwise, I'll do it around 6am tomorrow and will finish by midmorning.

I thought the game controller was a nice touch since he already has his own

What a great kid!!!!!!

Evidently they are getting ready to overhaul the Disney Rewards Visa. I got an index card in the mail from them, asking if I would participate in an online survey and then they would send me $20. Of course I did. They had questions regarding a Delux Disney Reward Card, with a high annual fee, but then the extras of it were things like 4% pts on purchases, a free 2nd airline ticket, extra perks at WDW (like a VIP lounge in the park with free internet and soft drinks), free refillable mugs, one child free at things like Wonderland Tea Party. But along with the high annual fee, once you paid it you got x amt of pts. I think the highest example of annual fee they gave was $350, but when you paid it you got 300 pts. For me, this would be great. I use my Disney Visa for EVERYTHING that I can. I got enough pts on there from just this year to pay for my DDP this trip for the kids and myself, with some money left over for souvenirs.

That's interesting! I've started using my Jet Blue card more lately.

Good luck! I didn't think the CS DDP has as much value. I didn't book any DDP. I was thinking I would use DDE but it will have expired by then and I wasn't going to renew my AP. I don't even know where we'll eat other than CP & CG for my birthday. Joe's my good eater and would love to try lots of things.

what are your dates. I think for the 600 difference I will probably skip the DDP. I have a question about the refillable mugs. We bought some in Sept at POP. They do not say POP on them. Can we take them and use them in May?

May 2 to 9.

Good thing you asked that mug question here-there are some on the Dis who feel very strongly about this issue. (I'm not one of them.) The mugs are supposed to be for 1 stay only but I have mine in my Owner's Locker box. I guess you could see if they changed them but I always see folks at the refill stations with all sorts of old mugs, mugs from different resorts even non Disney mugs and no enforcement.

 

[bear74]

so does anyone that is still on know what time on the date that the photos expire on photopass?

I used miles for my flight down and paid something like $99 for the flight home but when I checked to change the flight down to the previous day they had $59 flights. I also saw some $59 flights on Southwest for December-don't know why I was looking at that. Seriously...I can NOT do a December trip.


On the photopass thing I have never see pictures expire on the day they said they would but I don't think I'd want to risk it either-I would think midnight???

 

[lovesdumbo]

I have to go to bed-I'll be exhausted tomorrow-but I'm also getting really cold. Deb got any extra heat?

 

[MrsHeg]

I can't believe I'm still up when my alarm will go off at 4:15 am

I finally got to feel our baby kick tonight, normally she doesn't cooperate

thanks luckily Tia was able to finish tonight before I fell asleep. So it is ordered. I am hoping SW will have a ding soon. I think I might go ahead and book and then if I dont get decent airfare cancel. Will sleep on it.

Good morning DDA! Have a great day! I'll be in Lansing for the week-end. Becky is coming down from school to spend the night. We'll do dinner and do some shopping - maybe catch a movie. I'm excited about that. I had to get up early to get some work done.
