Anyone getting final papers yet?

 

[wendypooh]

I think Denise said she got hers - we booked through AAA, so I got my payoff, but no final docs yet. ** EDITED - she got her ME docs - not sure about final docs just yet!!


Also, for anyone who does not want to make thier own Mousekeeping envelopes - here is the link to the printable ones.

We are going February 2-8th! We are very excited this is our first time going in February! We are doing the P&P Party on the 5th.
I am a little concerned about the dance thing going on since we are staying at all start sports. I hope it is not to bad.

 

[wendypooh]

Here is what is on the front of our Mousekeeping envelopes, DS decorated them more too!!

 

[Lillabelle0]

Please fill me in on the mousekeeping envelopes. I did a search and it seems as if it is a tip for mousekeeping...but what's up with the envelopes?

Anyway..we also booked through AAA and haven't received any final documentation from them yet. I hope we get them soon. Did they sell the P&P party tickets too?

WendyPooh..Thanks for the reminder for the list..I need to make mine. I hope time flies..

 

[Lillabelle0]

Nevermind about Mousekeeping envelopes. I must have been distracted when I did that last search. There was plenty on there about them...It is just decorated envelopes...Yay...Ok..getting ready for tonight...Everyone be careful...

Happy New Year to all my February WDW friends! And Geaux LSU against Ohio State! Even though I'm a Bama alum, gotta pull for the SEC. Hopefully DH and the boys will get to wear their Dallas Cowboys jerseys while we are there for the Super Bowl!

 

[wendypooh]

I see you found out about the Mousekeeping envelopes - so, yeah, they are just daily envelopes to leave the tip in.

I saved candy from Halloween for this trip!!! Plus I got them those livesaver story books on clearance at Walmart.

Glad you reminded me of the lightup spinner things!! We have them all in a drawer in DD8's room.

EXCITED over here...

oh we live in Covington-I thought Talahassee was about halfway. DH took off for 8 days(of course, Mardi Gras he has off anyway).

Happy New Year February Friends!!

And like Triplefigs I'm a Bama fan but I pull for the SEC so GEAUX TIGERS!!

You all have so many fewer days to go than I do...I haven't even paid my final payment yet!! It's fun seeing all of your packing lists and Mousekeeping envelopes.

Hey Lori ~

GOH - is a Guest of Honor Badge - you can put the name on it. ( I got DS a Buzz one, but they have all kinds.)

I've been sick since before Christmas, I've had the flu or something, but my throat and ears hurt so bad!!! I"ve been coughing like a maniac too. I finally feel "kinda" better today. DH had it too, he's still coughing a little bit, but, yeah, we've got to get well!!!

Feel Better!!!

Hey all checking here, I plan on getting my mousekeeping envelopes done this week. We don't carry to much with us, the first trip we all had 2 carryons and didn't open them for anything. Last trip we took one for all of us and the kids still didnt ask to open it for anything. The only thing we do take are the Nintendo Ds's .

Hope you all have a wonderful New Year. I am staying with my momma tonight, taking care of her. Surgery went great, there was a total of 5 tears in her retina, but the doc said it went great. So thanks for all of your guys prayers.

30 days!!! Yessssss

 

[daisy79]

Still praying for some codes for the last week of Feb-March

We got our final docs and tags this past week, we go 1/31-2/6. Our final payment was due Dec. 17th.

 

[callaghan0416]

to the wonderful family who modified their reservation so we could include the last two days on our package! We had two reservations, one package and one room only. Now we have ONE package and were able to extend the dining for the last two days! Yaah!

So we just cancelled two AAA dates. 2/13 and 2/14 if anybody needs them.
