Well, a heck of a lot has happened since I last poasted on this pre -trip report:
Ed McMahon died, Michael Jackson died, Te Oxy Clean guy died, and there was a tragic accident at the happiest place on earth!
Now don't get me wrong...I am not a fan of any of the above[except the monorail], but it is always sad when you hear someone has died.
Some good things have also happened. My parents came home June 27th and we got to spend loits of time with them.

I also got to see alot of my brother's and their families, which we don't get to do on a regular basis becasue life gets in the way
With my parents coming home though I needed to get into full planning mode. As of today, right this second, we have 32 Days 17 hours and 26 minutes until our plane takes off...and I haven't got any lists made
When mom and dad came home they brought with them the extra car booster seat we keep there for Jimmy. This way they don't have to meet us at the airport and I don't have to worry about the cops pulling us over for Jimmy not being in a car seat
The also brought with them
The Box
yes it is just a Staples paper box
This box is stuff that we use in Florida, but have no real use here so we keep it at my parents. It's like our own personal owners locker...without the monthly fee
So what is in the box? Let's check it out:
This hooks on the back of the cheap umbrella stroller that we use for Jimmy (don't judge

). It is a mesh bag, great for storing sun screen, extra clothes if needed, the dreaded ponchos, and pretty much any other carp we pick up throughout a given park day. It also hase cup holders!
Next we have a cheap green plastic shower curtain ($ store) that we hang between the sink area and the bed area at Pop. We have a tension rod that we use to hang it. It gives you a bit of privacy getting ready.
Then there are our refillable mugs...yes we re-use...sue me
We lost one last year so we will just purchase a new one this year.
Water Bottle holders: great becasue they snap onto my baggalini or onto a belt loop
Finally, baskets for organizing all our carp in the room:
Once I reviewed what was in the box I quickly made a list and hit the $ store, CVS, and Target to get the rest a carp I wanted to get.
This included, but is not limited to laundry detergent, shampoo, body wash,
female stuff, sunscreen, glowsticks, deoderant, razors, shaving cream, advil, tums, pepto, children's tylenol, first aid kit, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and a bunch of other stuff I can't remember. I packed the box up all nice and neat so that when my mother packed the car to drive, yes drive, back to Florida the box went with her.

That box is safely ensconsed in FLorida as we speak
So, I have actually started packing. I also decided I wanted a Chip and Dale shirt for Jimmy to wear to our dinner at Garden Grill. Since I am not creative (and why I gave up my title as official Focker Monument Builder

) I contacted our Focker friend Tracy (MrsK) and asked her if should would be able to create something for me. She did and it's fabulous. Actually she did 2 and both are great, I can't decide which one I like best. If I can get Tracy's ok I will post them for you!
Finally our documents came today.



We are almost there..I better get my butt in gear.
