Got the Gang Together and We're going to Disney a Sept 2011 PTR

[DevonsDisneyMom]

Congrats on Devon's basketball tourney, that's great!

I can't wait to make our ADR's......June 5th seems so far away!! All your choices sound yummy. I'm still up in the air about a couple options, I'll have to read some more reviews.

Thanks for coming over to my PTR!

Thank you!!!

June 5th is right around the corner, well that's what I keep telling myself! The closer to the summer we get the closer it is to Disney!

ADR's are so hard to choose aren't they? There are just too many delicious places to eat in the world to decide.

YAY Devon and his team!!!!

Thanks Natalie!!! Hope Tyler had a safe flight today!

Hi Everyone! Today I thought I post something fun… So I asked everyone coming on the trip what they are most looking forward to and here is what they responded with!

Me- I am most looking forward to finally getting to experience Disney with my family again!!! Usually it’s just me and Devon (occasionally Tim tags along with us) and I so can’t wait to show everyone why Disney really is my “home away from home!” Yes, I’m a dork what can I say!

Devon- I can’t wait to see the Phineas and Ferb characters!!! And I want to ride Rockin Rollercoaster so bad! I want to trade pins too!

Tim- TSMM looks so cool, I can’t wait to see what that’s like. Now that I’m 21 I’m definitely looking forward to being able to have a few drinks in the different countries in Epcot (LUSH!)

Dan- I pretty much am looking forward to riding all the coasters with Devon now that he’s big enough to go on all them. He was just a baby last time I was there with him! Oh and the food, can’t way to eat at all the awesome restaurants!

Kristin- I’m just so excited to be going with everyone! I never been there so I have no idea what to expect.

Aunt Pat- Happy to be crossing another thing off the bucket list and the fact that I get to spend a week with my Devon at his favorite place on earth… I couldn’t be more excited.

Well there you have it folks… Only 174 days to go, but who’s counting??? ME!! That’s WHO!!!

it!

Has Devon gone on RNRC? It is my boys' favorite!!! (But they are scared of SWSA..)

You are not a dork! I can say that, otherwise I, too, would be a dork because I am excited to hear home on our first DVC trip!

Hey! im a little late in the game but i started reading and realized my son has the same name as yours except i spell it with a Y instead of an O. I just finished up and congrats on your cruise and to your son for the basketball tournament. i look forward to following along!

 

[Tinkermom76]

Thanks Natalie!!! Hope Tyler had a safe flight today!

He did! And he is loving the stocked bar in his room He's growing up too fast


Those are great things you are all looking forward to. You will all have a great time!!!

YES!!! He rode it for the first time in 2009! Of course I had to bride him to get him on it, but after that first ride he was hooked!!! There is NOT a single ride that he won't ride in Disney!

Well I am glad I am not alone Jill! I hope to here that one day too! But then again I did get to hear it for 9 days when we stayed at AKL in December... All I thought was I could get used to hearing that!

Hi there!!! Thanks for joinin in the fun! I just love the name Devon!

We are SO excited for the cruise! Devon just told me this morning we have 392 days till we set sail! And Yes Dev was pretty excited when he won on Sunday!

He did! And he is loving the stocked bar in his room He's growing up too fast


Those are great things you are all looking forward to. You will all have a great time!!!

Glad to hear! Yes, they do grow up too fast! The first time I ventured to Mexico I was his age... Oh boy the stories I have from that trip!

 

[DevonsDisneyMom]

I have to say his quote cracks me up. If you get a chance check it out, I have added the link below for you. He is the last person quoted in the article!

I know right!

Please DON'T share

I won't, but then again he is with your brother right? I was there with no adult supervision!

 

[Tinkermom76]

I won't, but then again he is with your brother right? I was there with no adult supervision!

Yes but my brother is a single womanizing 40 year old that has never been married and has no kids.... maybe not my best parenting moment

Ha!! But lets be honest... Im sure he will look out for Tyler and NOT let anything (serious) happen to him!

Hi Reese! Joining in! Gotta go back and catch up...

 

[DevonsDisneyMom]

Hi Reese! Joining in! Gotta go back and catch up...

Hey Sarah!!! So glad you found my PTR!!! You're only a few days away from your trip huh???

I was just thinking of you the other day... My Phillies tickets came in the mail the other day and one of the games I am going to is against the Brewers!!!

 

[photographymom517]

Hey Reese! I'm all caught up again! I decided to take this evening to catch up on all my subs...so far I've only read yours & Michelles!

That is so awesome that Devon was in the newspaper!!! Cute pic of him as well! They sure grow up fast, don't they?

I loved reading about what everyone in your family is looking forward to at Disney! I would ask my husband & Luke but they'll just both say food, so I don't have to ask!

Are Phineas & Ferb at the parks now????? I knew they were in the Christmas parade at Disneyland and supposed to be coming to WDW soon, but I wasn't sure when they were coming. If you know where/when they'll be there, let me know! I'm assuming they'll be at DHS ??? Luke loves them so I'd like to put that on my "to do list" for sure!

Oh, one more thing, I completely understand what you mean about looking forward to a trip with your family. I don't think you are a Disney dork at all (or else I am one too! LOL) because that's one thing I really, really wish could happen. I would love to go on another vacation with my family. I haven't been anywhere with my entire family since before I got married back in 2004. Our schedules just never work out...my husband's work schedule is really busy when my mom is off in the summer & my dad's work schedule is just always crazy. We finally thought this September our Disney trips might overlap by 2-3 days...my mom & I were already planning like crazy! We were going shopping at DTD together & let the boys have a day out. It was really something I was looking forward to...but they decided to wait until October when LegoLand opens & we can't go in October. I know thats a looooong story...lol...but I just wanted to explain that I really, really do understand how excited you are! Family vacations are the best!!! Even when we had our worst moments together on family vacations, we were still all glad to be together!

Looking forward to reading more about your plans!!! Have a great weekend!

Hi Hope!!! I could not agree with you more!!! These kids DO grow up so fast!!!

YEP!!! Phineas Ferg WILL BE at DHS starting in May some time!!! I have to be honest, I am pretty thrilled they finally have a meet and greet. It will be located in the building across from the muppet 3D. I actually love that show as well!

I am so glad that you understand where I am coming from being happy about being able to travel with my family!!!

Hey Reese, all caught up! Looks like things are going good on your end! Did Devon get the paper framed for his room? That's just too cool. Any idea on when Phineas and Ferb are coming in May? I'd love to catch them this trip but with my luck they will be there May 6th, the day after we leave! Keep up the updates! I love hearing that I'm not the only one around here that loves hopping on a plane and heading to Disney! Ever thought anything more about doing a wordless trip report for your last trip?
