We'll be there from Dec 23-31. Looking forward to spending Christmas at Disney and our sons 8th birthday on Dec 29. We were there in April 2006 when it was Easter AND Spring break.. how much worse can Christmas be? lol

That would be so great! I KNOW we'll need a sit down break....many times over, LOL......

Mine are 11, 4 and 2 1/2..........yours? I am really excited to go, but so nervous about the crowds.........are you? I am wondering if it will be extremely crowded the whole time we are there or just on the 25th and 26th. have you made any reservations yet? we have lunch at cinderella's castle on christmas eve.......but no place to eat christmas day yet........any ideas? i was kinda hoping to avoid MK on christmas day if possible.........maybe Epcot? what do you think? do you think it'll be warm enough to use the pool in December?

Kelsey will be 15 and Conner will be spending his 8th birthday at Disney. The only reservations I've made so far are for Liberty Tree at Magic Kingdom for Conners bday dinner. We're staying away from MK Christmas Day and probably going to Epcot Christmas Eve Day and Christmas Day.. Coming back to the hotel between 5 and 9 on Christmas eve to see Santa. They say the pools are heated.. sooooo us being from Canada.. of course it will be warm enough to swim lol. I'm going to run over to DTD sometime before Christmas morning to pick up a few santa things. Im sure the crowds will be crazy but we're going to take it easy do the morning thing.. come back during the afternoon if it gets too bad and go back later on. We just came out of the pool to start dinner and thats all the kids talked about in the pool was Christmas at Disney.. I cant wait~!

we are originally from the midwest so we are used to the cold too, LOL......i am going to ask my kids grandparents to give them money for Christmas so they can pick out some stuff at DTD. I made reservations for Rainforest Cafe in Animal Kingdom for Christmas day. I was hoping Animal Kingdom might not be as busy as the other parks on Christmas day.......what do you think? i may change it to MGM so we can see the lights......I dunno. Made a reservation for 1900 fare for New Years Eve. My kids don't know we are going yet. i am telling them a couple of days before, LOL.......so i guess we'll probaly do the mornign thing and then break and go back later......as long as we can get back into the park, that's a great idea!!!

I have heard that the parks get so crazy that week that they acctually shut them down, meaning no more poeple are let into the parks. So if you have reservations for dinner or linch you may want to check if you can get back into the parks if you leave. I am planning on staying in parks all day. I may be insane by the time I get done at the end of the day but that is what we are doing. My kids aren't talking about itmuch right now I think I have talked enough about it for eveyone in our group.

12/8/07 through 12/15/07. Going to MVMCP on 12/11/07. Already got 7 day hoppers and MVMCP tickets in hand and only $187.00 left to payoff the room, which will occur on 8/9/07.

The only bad part right now is that i'm still in triple digits, but closing fast on double digits.

I am not sure I am praying that we can because some pool time in the afternoon sounds great and a nap... for the DH...LOL. I know you were asking for ideas for xmas dinner we are eating at liberty tree tavern @ MK. I know you said you wanted to stay out of there but it is a suggestion.

 

[debbiet1]

lol Stephanie you sound like me.. its not the kids i'm worried about its the DH. All those people, all that time in the parks.. He's the one that could get cranky not the kids!!!!
