First Trip - Oct '09 So Excited!! (Pre-Trip Report)

[Charlefours]

Hello!

Just found your PTR! Congrats on winning the trip. Your boys are just lovely and your dress was beautiful! Love the black on it. I can relate with the school work--I am working on my master's degree right now and I will be still working on it when we go to Disney.

I hope you have a wonderful time--just about a week and half left to go before you are on your way!

I'll be watching for your TR and reading the rest of PTR.

Thanks for joining! Today is the day I can do the online check in. I have a few room requests I want to put down though. And I haven't felt to good today. So I'm going to wait a day or two to do the online check in. I want to be feeling a bit better so I can think straight when I do it.

Hmm... can you add room requests with online check-in? I thought you had to call on the phone before checking in to do that? We have some requests to add... I was holding off checking in online until I made my requests.

Honestly I'm not even sure. I'll go try now and let you know.

Well it says I am 11 days out instead of 10 so I guess I will try again tomorrow. I will post after wards though and let you know if it let me put in my room requests.

So I decided to give it a shot and do online check in this morning!! It's all set up now and good to go. It let me put in 'pack-and-play' for a room request. We also had the option of 'close to transportation' or 'ground level' but those two didn't matter to us. Actually the kids want to be 'high up' they say. I wasn't going to worry about any other room requests at this time. If we need anything we can always ask when we get there. So I guess the count down is really on. 9 more days according to me (10 more according to Disney but I like my number better !! LOL)

.... and we're still no where near ready to go Packing still hasn't really started. I started folding laundry this weekend, and any disney outfits I came across went into a pile. But I still need to finish the laundry and then sort the outfits (majority the kids) and pack them plus the extras and oy not enough hours in a day. DH is supposed to be discussing packing lists with MIL tomorrow so once that's done I will put a lot of focus into get ourselves done. I have a chem exam Thursday night and I work a double on Friday and Saturdays a big day. We will make it though (Just maybe without cloths )

4 more days!!!

We leave late tomorrow night (or early the next morning - whichever you want to call it). We're out of the house at 1am. So just short of 26 hours from now we'll be on the road!! We are finally pretty much packed. We have a couple more things to pick up and pack away tomorrow. And things like toilitries that we need tomorrow will have to be packed still - but overall we're good to go! Tomorrow is a busy day. After a quick lunch we're heading into the city to do our last minute shopping. We'll spend a couple hours with my dad. Then we're going to my moms to celebrate the twins 3rd birthday. After all that commotion is over, we'll head home get the kids into bed, load the van and relax just a little before we get the kids into their car seats and hit the road!! I am hoping I get a bit of sleep before hitting the road, but honestly I doubt it. I'll try to post again tomorrow before we go - but if not I'll be starting a TR as soon as I get back.

We are all back and had a great time!! I am hoping to be starting a TR soon, just waiting to get my pictures and everything put together so that I can do it in order. Currently have everyone getting over the flu (not fun) so I hope it doesn't take too long to get everything started. I will make sure to post a link to this when I get it going.
