Having a GRAND time - the NEW Official GF Chat Thread PART 3

[mickeynut1]

Vanessa - How exciting.....your trip is going to be here in no time . I wish I was going at Christmas just so I can order a tree .


Chan - How cool that the cabanas didn't go up in price . I thought for sure they would have after they redid them . I noticed you didn't give a price for the Grand 1........ But I guess vacation is a time to splurge .


BlueSkies - Any luck with getting a GF room for your few days in December?????

Whatever...you know you want to say "Vote for Obama or do not vote!"

 

[Alicnwondrln]

AND by the way...It is a lot better thread then "Where should I stay GF or Poly?" Let's just beat a dead horse!

okay where is the horse

 

[Alicnwondrln]

Whatever...you know you want to say "Vote for Obama or do not vote!"

No I dont actually.
I am voting for Obama and I am very invested in the election. But I am not one of those spewing hate and acting like chicken little if my choice doesnt win. I am just grateful that I have a choice. When I was a college freshman history was my major and I love it.

Oh, and yes, the kids had a special outfit everyday. My daughter had the bows, and shoes to match. And bracelets...can't forget the matching bracelets....At the pirate sword fight the stinky pirate was calling her Tinkerbell Jr. It was cute Already thinking of next years outfits...tee-hee!!

 

[BlueSkies]

Evening Gals What a chatty day

Channing HCTSs computer crashed, and she hasnt had it fixed ...(I still havent seen any party pics either) imagine!...hoping eventually to get to see them and that you gals will too Glad to hear the cabana prices have not gone up..I figured they would after that nice refurb...especially since I think I'm going to have to book one on every trip...just love them...

Deb I still have not been able to get a room at the GF ...but I'm still trying

Kelly I share you sentiments about having the priviledge to vote...so we will casting our votes Tuesday too...

Vanessa Thanks for that info..I'm surprised there are not services for all different denominations, especially at Christmas...they used to have a few different serivces on Sundays when it was at the Poly...but that was a way back when...

Traci I loved all of your pics and the outfits too...its so nice when they're young and you can do that...when they're older... they develope their own sense of style...

Hi to everyone else...hope your all having a good night

 

[Alicnwondrln]

Good Morning everyone!

Another puke free morning in my house!!

Traci I love love love those outfits and bows! Do you make them? I wish I could!

Freezing cold here today! I am not ready....resisting the cold!

I pigged out yesterday at brunch and now I am going to try and stay on track! Wish me luck....I only have 3 months!

 

[Alicnwondrln]

Good Morning all

As your trips get closer, do you start dreaming of what you will be doing on that day, in several weeks?

Yesterday, I was telling DH that in 5 weeks we will be eating here, riding this, doing this, than that. He looked at me and told me that he could not listen to that kind of talk for the next few weeks. He loves to go, but I need to not talk about it sooooo much as it gets closer - although he was playing illuminations music last night on his computer.

Good Morning Gals

I see that I am not the only early bird today...

Monday Not my favorite day of the week...

Siobhan So glad DS is better...and that he had another good night...

Lisa How nice to be thinking about what you'll be doing in just 5 weeks ...I do that too...and when I dont have a trip coming up I think about what I could be doing...my Disney addicition...thank goodness for the DIS and all of you who share that....

Well its time to get some work done..

Morning Gals


Hope everyone had a nice Halloween and a good weekend . I'm just freaking out because it's already November and I was actually talking to DH about Christmas decorations yesterday . I told him we need to think about getting the outside stuff up before it gets too cold....othewise it will be miserable trying to do that once the temperature drops . And DH will be busy with all the crap I have to go outside . My neighbors probably think I'm a lunatic with all the Mickey decor I put out .

Speaking of the weather......

Chan.......Did you hear it's supposed to be 74 DEGREES today !!! As well as be nice ALL WEEK (up until Friday)....and then COLD (high of 49) . But we can take advantage of the warmth here in Chicago for a few days atleast .



BlueSkies.......Monday's are not my favorite day of the week either . We've got 3 1/2 weeks until the next school break . BUT.....that just means there's only 3 1/2 weeks until Thanksgiving . We'll be celebrating New Years before we know it .



Siobhan......Glad to hear DS is feeling better and no more sicky .



Lisa......Your trip will be here before you know it......five weeks really is not that long .



Traci......Are you done with all that yet??? We want more pics . JK ......we know you'll tell us all about your trip when you have time .

I am doing the same thing and my DH doesn't get it either. 5 weeks will fly by!

I can't believe that Thanksgiving is only 3 and a half weeks away! I just started making my grocery list out because everyone comes here. I need to get going!

Me too, V.

Morning, all.

I have finished making Jojo her pancakes and sausages & have a few minutes to quick chat before getting ready to go out to breakfast with Kristin.

Traci even got me hooked on all the cute stuff. I need another younger daughter now to play dress up doll with ....Jojo is on the brink of being too old. Traci is the one that I have to credit with sending me a pic of the adorable outfit I wound up buying for Jojo to wear on Halloween.

Deb...isn't this weather crazy?!?! It's beautiful but now I have nothing to wear....I just finished putting away all my warm weather clothes!! Just wondering why we froze our tails off on the soccer field Saturday. Last game!!! Whoohooo....

OMG...I am so not ready for Xmas decorations. We will decorate the day after Thanksgiving onward. I am crazy about Christmas...that's why my rooms are painted the colors they are & I bought the furniture I did....to set off the Christmas decorations. That's bad.

Just and FYI...today is the day the Rachel Ray show is on that was filmed in the Roy Disney Suite. I set it to record.

Have a good day! I am probably off to get Jo on the bus so I can get myself ready to go out.

TTYL,
Chan

HI all!

Happy Monday! I have my helper coming over today So I am not dreading today as much as I normally do!

Uh, I was at walmart last night and they were playing christmas music...... I just am not ready I have got to figure out what the kids want and dread shopping...... I look forward to the baking,music, decorating, making a gingerbread house, fun family pictures, and teaching the kids carols for our caroling tradition! I guess i am a freak, I hate the pressure to buy buy buy!

Traci! I love your pictures! I looked for you at the MK but never saw you! We brought fun treat bags for your kids but by noon the kids had messed up the bags and we let them eat the candy! LOL! We actually made rope drop but my mom left her pass and ID in the car and and it was a mess getting back to the parking lot to get it. She actually thought she threw it away and we were about to look in the trash can but I insisted on checking the car first and it was in her seat the whole time! Thank goodness we did not search the trash!

Did the cold snap mess you up? It was COLD here a few days last week and I thought if you!

You gotta PM me the info on where you get those adorable outfits for your DD!

I got lots of auctions ending today so it is fun watching them go up up up!

TTFN!
