Hi, I am enjoying your report. Great pics. Your children are so cute. I was excited to see your DS on Buzz Lightyear. We have a 8 month old and I was worried that there would be alot of things that we would not be able to do with him. He will be 10 almost 11 months old when we go at the end of May.

It is only 39 days!!!!!!! YAY!!!!! I should get my packet from Disney next week!! I will be REALLY excited then!!!

I have been trying to stay busy doing anything possible to help the days go faster. It worked we are less than 40 days now. I have been shopping though. I got 2 lanyards and about 10-12 pins off of ebay. I think I spent about $30 total. They are all Disney pins but random ones. I did not want to get anything TOOO cool or Gracie would be upset to trade them. We will be doing pin trading for the first time so it is all new to us. I also got some extra pin backs. I want to get a pressed penny book but might wait until we get back to get it. We can collect them and get a book for them when we get home.

I also found out I cannot fix my camcorder so I bought a NEW one!! Well I boughta gently used one(I hope ) off of ebay. I have 14 days to return it so I have to check it all out and make sure it works well. I am excited! I also went to Target the other day and found a camera accessory kit that had a spare battery for my camera in it for $14.99! The regular price was $34.99!!!

I found a rental car through Alamo for $14 a day!!! We have it for 4 days for $76 total!! YAY! I am excited to take the kids to the beach and MIL is also really happy about that. I think we are going to the beach Friday(24th) and Maybe Monday the 27 for part of the day.

I have been trying to catch Southwest airfare for later in the day on the 2nd for less so i can book rebook us. The we coudl gotot eh park for a little bit that morning before we have to go to the airport! Or we could even relax by the pool at the resort before we leave. I saw it the other night but wanted to check with Dh before I did it and now I ahve not seen it at the price again but I am looking every day and at night. I hope I catch it before it is to late.

I have most of our things ready to go since we are not wearing summer clother here(it is COLD)!

Off to do a 2008 photo trippie!!

Great job on the flights. That's exactly what I did. I originally booked a flight leaving orlando at 7:45 am, but checked back and for the same price found one leaving at 8:45 pm, boy were we excited, we gained an entire day.

We were leaving at 11am but now it is 5:55pm!!! YAY!!!!!! We are taking that day at the beach with MIL so we were going to have a unused day on our tickets but now we can use it! Maybe we will hit rope drop somewhere!!! We will see how the week goes and decide where we want to go!

I have a spiral notecard set that is filled out for our ressies and other info, I LOST IT!!!! DANG IT!!! If I do not find it today I am getting a new one. I have a bunch of stuff i want ot put in it but I cannot find that stupid thing. It is driving me CRAZY!

 

[Corjack]

I put a link to my Photo trip report(in progess) from 2008. I am going to try REALLY hard to get it done before we leave!!!

 

[Corjack]

I found my notecards!!!! YAY!!! Of course it was after I bougth new ones but oh well. I will still use it!

We got our Magic Express packet Saturday!! YAY!!!!!!! Then today we got our Disney packet with our luggage tags and stuff! THat means it is getting CLOSE!!!!!

Tuesday it will be less than 30 DAYS! WHOOT WHOOT!! I have to start getting myself together. I really love for my house to be super clean when i get home so i want to get a handle on it now and keep it all up super good until I leave because the 2 weeks before we leave will be busy and it will be easy to let it get away from me.

I bought Dh a few new shirts the oher day. He just needed some. I only Spent $21 for 3 sleeveless shirts at Kohls. I was at Walmart the tohr ngiht and found 2 shirts for myself for $5 ea! I have to stop buying stuff though. We all have everything we need. I do need to buy cereal bars and snack foods. I think I will start next week and just pick up things that are on sale. We are not mailing a package since we get 2 bags each for free. I need to get snacks that will travel well.

Here is my list:
raisins
fruit snacks
fruit by the foot
quaker granola bars
fiber plus bars(I like them)
dum dum suckers
some sort of cookies(for Jack)
mint discs ( we all take these for an upset belly)

Not sure what else. it needs to travel well so things like chips or crackers are out unless they come in the carry on which i might do. At least some Gold fishes or something like that.

Well it is time for bed, the kiddos are summoning me.

Back tomorrow with more!

Only 30 days!!!!!!!! HOLY COW!!! YAY!!!!!

Today we found granola bars and oatmeal bars on sale so we bought a bunch extra to take with us! I also bought some fruit by the foot and swim diapers. A few more things off the list!

MIL just got back from her 2 week beach vacation. She found out someone she works with is sick and she may not be able to go with us. I am sot sure how I feel about that. i would be bummed if she didn;t go. gracie is looking forward to it and she would ahv ea good time. I will be fine if she does or does not go. There are good parts to both situations. I think if we take her off the ressie they will charge us a fee though. maybe not..but probably.

I am going to work on our itenerary tomorrow. Now that we are leaving later on Saturday we have another park day and we changed our beach day so I need to re look at things and make sure I have it all set.


until tomorrow!!!

YAHOO FOR YOUR 30 DAY MARK That deserves some dancing bananas.

I'm going to be so excited when my magical express packets and luggage tags come in. I don't know how i'm going to contain myself. I was talking to dh last night about having to buy him some shorts and tank tops, he just doesn't have enough. And I mentioned, well , we have 50 days to get that done. He said "50 days, that's it, oh wow, I didn't think we were that close" So that just made me feel a little closer to going. He's getting so excited now, the person who though it was silly to spend all of this money on a Disney vacation. He can't wait either.

Joining in....... WOW now you're below the 30 day mark .

Your little princess and prince are adorable. I can't hardly remember mine being that little.

I am enjoying your planning.

 

[Corjack]

I talked to MIl yesterday about vacationa dn she is thinking she might only be able to go for a week instead of our whole 11days. She is not sure yet. I called Disney and the airline. Seems changing her stuff would be easy. I hope she finds out soon because I really want to know what we are planning for.

I made myeslf up a HUGE list of thigns i want to get done before we leave. i am hoping it will fillt he gaps of time and make it go faster. I can hope. These last 30 days are so hard for me. I feel all pumped up all the time. I have trouble sleeping. It is like a kid at Christmas.

I had our itenerary all set but if MIL does not go we will probably change things. BAH!! I wish she would let us know!!!

adios until later!

My husband gets tired of me making and then changing the plans....... He just doesn't understand that the planning is a major part of the fun for me.
