Hope you had a wonderful birthday!

Thank you, I don't know why but this fell off my watched threads and I thought you guys were just being quiet.

Ok, so I sat down with the kids last night to go over FP options and try to plan PH. We arrive on Friday so I think Saturday we'll start at HS then hop to AK for lunch ressie and I'll book FP's here. Sunday will be MK party so no parks before the party. Monday is E and both girls want to see Fantasmic so I'm thinking maybe hop to HS with a FP for Fantasmic. Tuesday will be HS day and E is open late so maybe hop over to E with FP for Soarin and back to F&W Festival. Both kids would rather stay at MK on Wednesday and Friday so they can play SotMK instead of hopping. I've still got a couple of weeks to figure things out, but this seems to be the plan for now. We've never had the PH so we'll see how much of a challenge this will be for us.

We arrive on Sept 9th and just finished our FP planning last sunday. Epcot is going to be our first and last parks. Our MK FP are all for night shows.

Glad to hear you're enjoying your time away from the grandmunchkins. You'll have to plan a movie night when they come back.

That's funny SunnieRN because every time I use the self checkout, dimes are all I get!!!

I will have to try that!!! It makes sense, since dimes are small and the machine could hold more of them, lol. Of course I have no idea if this is why,lol.

I'm missing my grandmunchkins, but our dog is in mourning! He spends a lot of time sitting by the front door waiting for them.

It sounds like your plans are coming along great!!! We only had park hoppers once or twice. We didn't really use them much as we would get caught up in things at one park and not want to hop lol.

The same thing happened to me last month. I thought it was just really quiet for 3 or 4 days and then I figured out I wasn't getting alerts anymore. I "unwatched" and then "watched" this thread again and that seemed to fix it!

Ahh, poor puppy! It's hard when you can't explain that the kids will be coming back. I bet this week will fly by and you will be hugging your grandmunchkins soon! I went grocery shopping today with all 3 kids for the first time this summer and I forgot that when all 3 are with me everything takes 3 times as long, LOL! I still loved it!

I can't wait for the F&W menus to be released so I can start planning which booths to visit!!! Did you ever find out about your party tickets?

It doesn't even matter how much change I get back, it's always dimes!! You'd think .86 you'd get 3 quarters, 1 dime and 1 penny. Nope, it's 8 dimes, 1 nickel and 1 penny!! I roll the quarters for Disney and the kids get the rest so I need all the quarters I can get.

Oh, poor dog. Maybe if you talk to the grandmunchkins you can put them on speaker so the dog can hear them.

This is what scares me. We always stay in 1 park all day. I'm afraid we'll feel rushed leaving one park for another. Then again we might like it. After all, we had never used a FP until we got our magicbands for our 2013 trip. Plus, the kids are really excited about possibly riding RNR 3 days!!

When I take both girls with me not only does it take longer, I seem to spend more money too!! LOL!!

It's amazing how much longer everything takes, lol. Like you I love it too!!!

That's amazing. It I get the same amount of change its 3 quarters, 2 nickels and a penny, lol.

The boys talked to Wolfie on face time today. At first he sagged his tail and looked for them, but when he couldn't find them he went under the couch and pouted, poor little guy!

I'm sure you'll utilize PH more than we did. We had good intentions, we just didn't follow through lol.

When I take both girls with me not only does it take longer, I seem to spend more money too!! LOL!!

Exactly!!!!!!! Lol.

Happy Saturday everyone!!! I hope you're all set to have fun!!!! Had a dream about WDW last night. We were at the Candlelight Processional and the guest speaker was Carrot Top! Lol.

I definitely think it would be a different kind of show.

 

[SunnieRN]

Lol, that's awesome!!! Believe it or not, he actually did a good job in my dream. And I'm not a fan, lol.

I definitely think it would be a different kind of show.

Lol, it was funny, because he was being VERY serious, doing a great job, but with his hair moving every which way it became a comedy show.

Oh, edited to wish y'all a happy Sunday!!! I bought an instant pot, that will be here Friday. I'm so excited!!!! I actually WANT to cook lol. I know I'm going to want to bring it to Disneyland if we drive, as we will have a kitchen and it's so fast to cook in. And I'm the one that ALWAYS says I'm not cooking on vacation lol.

I'm not looking forward to the crowds. I was planning on using a few snack credits there, but last years menu didn't entice me any so I'll just be trying to avoid the crowds. We will be there for the first weekend. OH my brother should have been up booked our fast passes this morning. 60 days to go.
