**December 2012 Roll Call** Holidays, FLE Opening & MVMCP!! A very, merry thread!

No, no. Nothing tragic. Just little things starting to add up. I am still hopeful we will go and not change anything. Will know more in October. Just had to post on here and get a little sympathy.

Ugh! Bills SUCK! Hope you are able to balance the finances and go ahead with your trip

As far as I am aware it is. When I booked it the CM told me it was two TS credits

I heard the same thing.

Holly -- About the ideas, maybe you could buy a calendar to give them when you see them on labor day with the countdown marked on it and some notes; ie/ 1 month before tell them to get the bag they will bring, then each week you can add an instruction to put something in the bag -- it might help their mom with the packing too My son and I usually cut out Mickey-head shapes and number them at about 30 days from our departure - we stick them on the hallway wall and pull one off each day.

I'm probably the only one that's really disappointed about this, but I'm totally bummed about the Splash Mountain no longer staying open for evening EMH. I realize because its cold almost nobody wants to go one it after the sun goes down, but Splash is one of my favorite rides, and I have some great memories of throwing on the pancho and going on it over and over, essentially walking to the front of the mountain from the exit with very little line after dark at DLR with my nephew. Supposedly the Florida version is even better, and though we'll be going on it during the day and using FP's, I was also looking forward to the night experience with little to no lines on the 3rd and 10th. Oh well.

Splash Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain are my favorite night time rides. I am hoping it is open during MVMVCP so I can go on it a few times at night. the last few years I have gone on during the fireworks and it was great seeing them from the top...

Double digit dance and I can't even get up to shout and dance the kids are sitting right here and they don't have a clue so i am dancing and screaming in my head (maybe that's why i have a headache)

I was uber excited about 99 days this morning as well! The best part is my two kids love it when I randomly shout and dance.... But they are only 3 and 1

We love seeing the fireworks from the top of Splash Mtn
And BTMRR is a nighttime favorite of ours

Just looked at the check-in calendar, and saw we don't have anyone checking in on the 30th. Did I misread it, or are back to not having a full calendar?!?!?

Say it ain't so!!

Also don't forget to add yourself to the MVMCP list

I just looked at the MVMCP list and wow(!) there are a lot of us going on December 11th. Is everyone going to have a LGMH on?

Fantastic idea! Love it!

I read on page 2 about DTD at the holidays...Carole's, street performers, Santa. Whose been and how Christmas-ey does it feel. Need the truth vs the marketing as we may go the night of A K day!

Where is that list?

Here it is: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/lv?key=0AuKRA20FjgSVdGtiTjRXZkNuZEhIZ0hLZERGdUpGUVE

You can find it (and other good info) in post #2 of this thread.

Are you going on the 11th, too?

Thanks so much! I'm actually going on the 13th, our first night there. It's a surprise for my partner.

CP dinner question - We have ADRs for Via Napoli for dinner and seating for the 645 CP on 12/7. When I read the details of the CP dinner it says DDP not accepted but I know Via Napoli is on the dining plan. I had set aside 2 TS credits for the CP dinner package so can I use DDP or not? I'm confused.

Your DP will be accepted. Just count on 2TS per person attending
