We leave 2 weeks from tomorrow!!
We have been collecting grocery items to take down with us - so that our grocery trip will be less exhausting - and so that we might find the things we like for better prices.

We have all kinds of non-perishables set aside. And I have even cooked a few meals (baked Ziti and chicken tacos) that are frozen and ready to go with us.
On Sunday we are having the families of the girls that are coming with us over for a cookout. I have a list of things for them to be sure to pack - and then we need for them to do things like medical release forms (just in case).
Here are some of the things from our list: sunscreen for 2 weeks, goggles, hat/sunglasses, water shoes, clothes/toiletries, $$, backpack to take to the parks, snacks for the parks, dozen bottles of water, wii games, things to do in the car, pins/lanyards.
Also, a week from Sunday, my oldest daughter leaves for camp. So she'll be gone that whole week before we leave. She comes home on Friday - and we leave on Saturday. I am thinking that we will pack her for both camp and Disney at the same time.
My other quandary of late is our AP upgrade. We have 7 day tickets that we are going to use to upgrade - but I can't do that online or from home. I am kinda bummed about the price increase before I swap over to my APs!
So...can you think of anything else we might need the girls to bring? Any suggestions for a freezes easily meal that I can make before we go?
I somehow missed this post

I think you are doing great on the packing so far. One thing I read someone did and wish I had done was make banana nut bread and pumpkin bread and freeze it and bring it for a quick and easy breakfast. One thing I was pleasantly surprised was when we had our villa a few years ago was that when we went to Walmart for groceries, they were around the same price as ours is here. We had brought all of our non perishables so we only needed to get a few things but definately made a mental note that if we ever go off property again we will not bring so much stuff from home!
