I was able to call this morning and book the rest of our trip.
It's official, we are staying June 22-28th at AKL DVC and then from June 28th-July 7th we are staying at SSR. I put in a request for Grandstand as first choice and Springs as second choice. I sure hope we get one of those too.
I am sooooooooooooooooooo excited that it is officially booked. Now onto find airfare ............... But I can't book that until all the rates are released for Southwest for our dates.
I do get to call next week and book our adults only trip in November, YEAH!!!!
Have a good Saturday everyone. Tim and I have a friend watching the kids and will enjoy a movie and dinner out tonight,so excited!

Well now, there's a reason to keep my bathroom clean for a week! You are a lucky girl! Tim sounds great!

And congratulations on your DVC purchase and booking your June trip. I'm looking forward to planning along with you.

Speaking of which, your ADR plans sound great!

Oh and before I forget, Mickey is adorable. I'm also "mom" to a golden and I thought many a time as she scampered down the stairs that she would wipe out. Luckily she didn't but how great that Mickey's breeder was so fantastic and he has such a nice family to nurture him back to good health. There are lots of cute dog toys in WDW...

Lesley, so glad you got your SSR ressies for June! I KWYM about the airfare - I am playing the "book or not to book" game for our March trip and our Vegas trip for April, as well as where to stay in Vegas and I still need to get rooms for our March Madness games and for our SOG nights in March.

Yikes! Makes me want to run away!

 

[Sooze]

I'm so glad the pieces are falling into place for this awesome trip!! I sure hope the airline situation is just as easy!!

Don't forget, Matt and I will be at SSR this January, so if you need me to scope anything out for you, let me know!!

Hope you and Tim enjoy your evening. I'm draggin Matt to see Twilight with me... he's such a good sport...

 

[DreaGirl]

Yeah! How exciting to be booked! Before you know it you'll be calling in your ADR's!

 

[Trentmom]

WOO HOO on getting it all booked


Hope you and TIm had a nice evening tnite

 

[mylag1rl]

Congrats on getting your ressies that is exciting ! I love the amazing race thing. What an awesome idea Tim had !

 

[Tigger79]

Since you're staying at SSR, you might want to look into their spa and treat you and your daugher to a day at the spa!! We stayed in 2005 and went to the spa for the afternoon(my sister and I) and had a great time. Sooo relaxing from all the hustle and bustle that you do at the parks. The staff treats you like a queen!

Thanks! Yes, if I had a surprise like that these bathrooms would be spotless . Glad you are enjoying the TR. Aren't goldens the best! Mickey is doing great now. We put the tree up this weekend and can't believe he isn't into it, I was so worried. I know, I need to find him some sort of Mickey collar this year.

Thanks. Yes, you have to tell me about the transportation at SSR. What section did you guys request? We had a good night out last night. Saw 4 Christmas' movie, it was just "o.k." and then out to dinner, it was so nice just the two of us.
Hope you guys had a good night out too!
Lesley

That is a nice idea, thanks for sharing it with us, maybe on one of our days off.

Leslie,
Just catching up with all the plans. What a fun trip, 2 weeks in Disney. I have not stayed at SSR or AKL, but have stayed at OKW. The DVC resorts are very nice. We did visit my cousin on our last trip to AKL, just met near the food court area. It is a beautiful resort.
I love Amazing Race, what a neat thing Tim did for you and the kids. He really is very creative. Way to go!

 

[CRSNDSNY]

Very cool!

 

[purplepeg]

Congrats on being all booked I know how exciting that is. What a great surprise Tim pulled off for you guys. It would probably mean more if I followed the Amazing Race(which I don't) It still sounded great. Your dining choices look great too.

 

[stacikristine]

YAY! You're all booked! Congrats!

 

[Sooze]

We didn't request any particular building... so we'll see what we get!!

Matt actually enjoyed Twilight more than I did! He didn't have the book in his mind to get his expectations up!
