DOUBLE stroller FEB17-21/MAR14-21/MAR30-APR8/ OPEN

[rainy~daze]

So ... how's the packing going? Only a few more days! I'm excited for you and wish we could go back already.

Is everyone ready for Halloween? Up until this week, my ds was going to wear the Lightning McQueen costume that I got last year (that he wouldn't wear at the time). But it seems somewhat suddenly, he is obsessed with Spider Man. So, I went today and bought a Spider Man costume.

My dd is going as Gabriella from HSM. I need to figure out something that she can wear under the little dress so that she doesn't freeze to death!

What are everyone else's little ones going as?

my DS and I both have pretty brutal colds. We were supposed to take the kids trick or treating with my sister and her kids, but I don't know if we will go now. I don't think we are contagious, we have had this for days now so i think we are past that point.
But I don't want to get her family sick. Maybe I will just buy the kids candy and a Wii game

DS as going to be Will Turner and DD Elizabeth Swan. so, we will see what happens.

My son is going to be a pirate or cowboy. He cannot decide. My daughter will be a ballerina.

I love the Pirates theme rainy~daze. We did that last year. Hubby was Captain Hook, daughter was tink and son was peter pan. It was really cute.

Doxxie, I hope that packing is going well. You are ALMOST there! I'm excited for you.

I hope everyone has a safe and fun Halloween!

 

[rainy~daze]

Happy Halloween!!

Hi everyone!

Did everyone get way too much candy last night? We didn't come home with as much as I expected. But still a lot more than the kids need! I hope everyone had a great and safe night.

Don't forget to roll those clocks back tonight!

Hi All, Just got back. We had a great week, although it was a chilly one! Worked out well, I got a great new WDW Sweatshirt. My husband was bitten by the Disney Bug.

Stroller was great. My sister who was with us, noticed the front wheel was a little loose (works for TRU assembling products) so I let Doxxie know to bring a screw driver and a wrench to tighten it up.

I'm off to do laundry and to start planning our next trip!

 

[rainy~daze]

welcome home Betsy!!!
I hope you come back and tell us more about your trip--I love hearing about them.

I was without computer access all day yesterday, so hopefully is doesn't kick out today, too.

I'm glad to hear that you had a great trip. I think the Disney bugs are after the husbands lately. I think mine was bitten too. (not that I'm complaining)

And, like Jill, I'd love to hear more about your trip!

OK, so here it goes about my trip

We pulled into Disney around 12:30 and checked into the Beach Club Villas. Our room was ready, so it was off to get settled in. While we were settling in, my parents and sister arrived. They took my kids over to Epcot, while I took my cousin off property to pick up her passes.

We then caught up to everyone in Epcot and walked around for a little bit then we headed over to DHS for extra magic evening hours. We first walked right onto Star Tours, then had dinner and headed over to Fantasmic. We went to the 9pm show. While waiting, a father reported to the cast member that his 6 year old boy was missing. We stood near the search area it was over 20 minutes before they moved the family. That was scary. I just kept looking at my 2 kids and trying to explain to them to find a cast member and to not leave them until we find them.

Fantasmic was great. My sister then took my 7 year old onto ToT. She was as white as a ghost and shaking when she got off. Needless to say we needed to leave the park after that. Thanks for the stroller, because I don't think she would have been able to walk back to the front of the park!

On Monday morning, we had breakfast ADRs at Crystal Palace. This was awesome. Our server made friends with my 4 year old son, and kept him entertained while we waited for the characters. We then spent the morning at MK. We walked onto every ride. The kids loved PotC, SM, and BTM. We then headed back to the hotel to rest because we were going to EME hours at MK at night.

We then headed back for supper and Spectro Magic that night. Loved the parade, but had a horrible spot for Wishes. Oh Well, I guess that just gives us another reason to go back

We then spent the evening over in Tomorrow Land. That is such a fun place at night!

Well, I need to head to bed, so I will write some more tomorrow.

Wow! We dropped off to the 4th page ...

Betsy, your trip sounds great so far. I'd love to see some pictures too. My 7 year old says that the Tower of Terror was her favorite ride of all. Isn't it funny how different some kids are?

I hope that doxxie is having a great trip!

Hi all,
Betsy I am so glad to hear you had a great trip. Was that the first time you stayed at Beach Club? We never made it over to the Epcot/Boardwalk resort area,just not enough time. Just an excuse to plan another trip. Hope everyone is enjoying thier election day and I hope alot of you have the day off.

I hope everything is going good for Doxxie! I haven't been posting I have been so sick--just reading. I am feeling slightly better today.

Has everyone voted yet?

Oh, so sorry to hear that you've been sick! I hope you are on the mend soon.

And yes, I went by and voted on my way into work today. Breezed through - it took only 10 minutes. A lot of places around here me reporting long waits, so I think I was lucky!!

 

[bjeannep]

Rainy~daze, sorry to hear you have been sick. Since returning, I haven't been feeling well either.

It took me about 20 minutes to vote, but most of that time was waiting in the line for my last name becuase the woman was quite elderly.

Once I'm feeling a little better, I'll post some pictures, and I have a few more stories..

 

[julie2818]

Hi again everyone ... how are all of you feeling??

Has anyone else noticed the rumors about a "big discount" being announced today at 5 PM (see mousesavers). The rumor on this board and the resorts board is that it is going to be a buy 4 nights get 3 free deal - for dates through June. I'm sure that we won't be able to squeeze it in but thought I'd let you all know.

And you know what, I just realized that doxxie STILL has almost another week at the world. I'm so jealous!

 

[Ariel'07]

Hi all! I was wondering if anyone knows where the storage area is for the Beach club Villas? The mom ahead of me in the swap is being so nice as to drop it off at the BCV for me, but I don't know where to tell her to go? Does anyone have any ideas? TIA!!
