Heading back to Princess Josie's Castle-An AKV May 22-29 PTR-TR Started 6/3!

[Brave teacher]

Princess night looked like so much fun! It's kinda hard to get my boys to agree to a princess party. Alas, I'll have to stick with the pirates.

Princess night with cupcakes and a movie? It can't get much better than that . I so wish I could get my crew to do stuff like that. Couldn't you just see Dale in a grass skirt and a leis . I don't think the world is ready for that picture .

When I read your post I immediately saw Dale in a grass skirt in my head. Made me laugh out loud. He is so NOT a grass skirt kinda guy. We did have a lot of fun with princess night. Poly night is coming up. I might try to squeeze it in this weekend but no later than 28th.

Thanks Megan! It was a lot of fun. Yeah, I don't imagine the boys want to wear sparkly dresses. My girls would totally wear pirate garb though.

You see. That's where girls are so different. They'll dress up in anything just to play.

Not that I really want to dress my girls up as princesses.

I really don't.

I really don't.

I'm with you on that. If I had boys I wouldn't want them dressing as princesses either (unless it was a halloween joke or something).

How's the C25K going? We've had a decent snowfall every week for 4 weeks now. No running for me. I have been walking laps at lunch inside the facility I work at though. I wish the weather would break so I can get outside. I don't mind cold I just don't want to run through muck/mud.

 

[cinderella crazy]

Wow! I have a lot of catching up to do! I'll eventually make it through all the pages but I just wanted to let you know that I'm following your thread now. Can't wait to read it all!

It's going great! I am starting Week 4 tomorrow. I'm kinda nervous to take that jump to the next level, but I can only get better from here.

It's so not fun to run through the cold. I am fine to start off with, but the minute I start that first run and breathe in that first breath of cold air, I feel like I am going to die. However, I just push through it, and I am fine by the next run. Your time will come to get out there. Be patient!

I went walking outside today. It was 74 degrees-sorry had to rub it in. I am messing with my plans again. I have that "we have 3mo to go and I need to mess with my plans an Adr's fever"

Hey, where are the tickers?

Hi Alicia! Thanks for stopping by! You're PTR is so funny. I'm loving it!

Hey everybody, Alicia is going the same week in May as we are! You need to check out her PTR!

Sounds like you're doing great Megan! Awesome!! I'm excited to get back to it. Now that I have the IPhone there's a great app that uses your music and tells you when to walk and run. When I started before I was using a prerecorded podcast of someone's elses favorite music and it was okay but some of the songs were just okay. Good luck with level 4 tomorrow!

Don't know what was going on with the tickers....look okay to me. Your comment about the weather was not very nice Mary. Way to rub salt in the wound.

As for making changes.....JUST SAY NO stay away from the bright light. My days look good compared to UG recommendations so I don't think I'll be changing parks anyway. ADR's could change a little. I have to admit that I'm trying to figure out where I can put Les Chefs. After watching the Sam Brown special the girls want to see Remy.

Those are not accurate-check out the group trip report all our park plans and ADR's are there!

Well, the weather won't be like this for too much longer. We are supposed to be in the upper 60s this weekend. We'll probably stay around the 60s for the next 2-3 weeks before we start heading back into the 70s at the end of next month.

STOP!!!!

I'm kidding. I do the same thing when I am bored.

My big time at wanting to change things is during testing week at school. I have nothing to do but watch the students bubble in their answers for 3 hours.

Hi Alicia! Thanks for stopping by! You're PTR is so funny. I'm loving it!

I'll be sure to go check it out. Thanks for the head's up!

I am doing well. I am losing inches right now. I know the weight will come off. I was nervous about that 3 minute run last week. It's crazy that I am getting ready to do 3 & 5 minute intervals tomrrow. I'm using the C25K podcasts from Itunes by Robert Ullrey. The music is very techno-like, but it's fine for running. Thanks! I'll be sure to post and let you know how I did with it.

Hi Leona!! Mary is going to be at the Safari Celebration with her family. Dana (racefanof88) and her family will also be joining us! It should be a lot of fun!

 

[leamom2princesses]

94 DAYS .

Hi Dana! Not too long before we're doing the 90 day dance! It's a busy weekend ahead for us. Leona and her daughter Lexie are coming over tonight so that we can make our cupcakes to take to the Long Term Care Center. I have a baby shower cake to make tomorrow night, and then we will be actually throwing our party for the residents (Disney Give a Day event) on Saturday. I was supposed to be doing cookie booth sales most of the day at Walmart on Sunday but because of snow everything got backed up a week. I guess that's a good thing. At least I'll have one day to recover.

Hope you're having a good week. Can't wait to see what you buy!!

Hi everyone! This is my second PTR so hopefully this will be a little smoother than the last one. This year (2009) we visited the World May 16-23. That week there was record level rain. We were rained on EVERY day of that trip.

So why are we going back the week before Memorial Day again in 2010? Well, we figure it was just a fluke and we absolutely love going in May, after school is out, but before the crowds get HUGE and the weather unbearably hot.

The title of my trip report isn't the catchiest (is that a word ) but I get asked every single day "Momma when are we going back to my cas-o (castle)?". So I decided to go with something about that until I come up with something more intriguing.

I hope you will plan along with us! Don't be shy to post. Should be a lot of fun!

So with that said..

Let's get this party started!!!

Hello! I remember reading some of your PTR last year. We also went the same week and got caught in all that rain! My dd(4) calls it her Florida home... Tells me everyday - Mommy, when are we going to Florida home? Or I miss my Florida home

So we are headed back in May again (for the 3rd year) May 22-29

Okay... so now I am going to start reading more!
