"I Want To Go Back!!!"....a Sept 2010 PTR(upd 10/12-TR Started!)

[Dancegrl624]

I did not know that about HM. I love these facts you're posting!

I've never see the bag drop off that crowded. It's usually me and one or two other people and there's 3 people working. I think you'll be ok!

And wow, Maddie has a lot of pins!

I love the facts too. I highly recommend the Disney World trivia book (I have Vol. 1) and the Hidden Magic of Walt Disney World. So much fun to read!

Thanks for sharing your experience with bag drop off. It's the only thing that makes me worried.

She certainly does. I'm sure we'll be adding many more after our trip.

Awww Madison looks so sweet on her first day of school!

I LOVE that hula shirt for Madison! Too cute!

Thanks. She really can't stand dresses, but I force them on her. She wants to change the second she walks in the door.

I love that shirt too. I'm so happy I found it!

Madison looks so pretty today for her 1st day back.

Our Wal-Mart doesn't have pink misting fans! I had to buy green ones & Lexi wanted a pink one.

The corkboard is such a cute idea for displaying the pins!

I love both of your shirts, especially Madison's Hula shirt. Too cute!!!

Aw, thanks.

Our Walmart had pink, blue and green. Madison's favorite color is red, so pink was the closest color to that (it has red fan "blades").

I love the corkboard idea...pretty sure I got it on the DIS!

Thanks! My shirt is from Aeropostale and Madison's is from Kohl's.

I found the corkboard idea somewhere on the DIS too! I just got 12x12 tiles and covered them with fabric. I did 4 of them. Sarah's has Tinkerbell (that's what she collects most), Paige's is Princess, and then one red (for Mickeys) and one Blue (for everything else!).
I literally just finished putting the fabric on minutes ago!! I can't wait to see how cute it looks with the pins. I might see if I can find some 12x12 deep frames to make it more finished, but for now we keep adding to the collection! I'm going to display them in the office which I am converting to a Disney room!!

That sounds awesome! I'm hoping to buy some Disney fabric as well (and maybe another corkboard), but we just wanted to get the pins out of the bags they were in. Madison showed off her pins to my parents yesterday while they were over.

Love the idea of a Disney room!

So I'm a little behind but day 6 and 7 outfits are all cute, I think Maddie's hula shirt is my favorite and I love the tye-dye shirts! I'm kind of wondering if we should do MNSSHP. It sounds like fun but was unsure if my kids you like it, is it more for younger kids? Maddie will just love her BBB surprise. She looked so nice for her 1st day of school! It made me so sad when my kids went back, it's my baby's last year of elementary school. I love all your plans, O'hana sounds great, that's was one of my adr's I decided not to book at the last minute... Yet another thing I'm wondering about.
It's coming up so quickly!!!

Thanks! I love that hula shirt too. We've never done MNSSHP, but I've heard it wonderful and not just for kids. There are plenty of adults that go and dress up, go trick or treating, etc.

A week or so ago I had an invite to the BBB made up for her. Today, I printed out a special envelope to go with it! So cute!

I picked her up from school around 3pm and she had a great day. She loves her teachers (she's in a classroom with 2 teachers) and loves having a locker.

We've never eaten at 'Ohana so we're very excited about it. Come to think of it, we've never met Lilo & Stitch (maybe because we haven't watched that movie).

I can't believe I'm 15 days away!

They don't start in our town (Wheatfield) until tomorrow - where DD is starting 2nd grade. DW is off work this week, so I don't know if she'll drive her in or drop her off.

Hard to believe you only have 2 weeks to go. We are still at that in between time where it is not yet close enough to feel close (38 days left), though I keep thinking another week or two and it WILL be close. We have so much going between now and then. (A weekend in Toronto, a limo wine tour with some friends. Dance class, swim class.) It'll go by fast...but not as fast as yours!

We're in the KenTon district, but I noticed that Sweet Home MS (where I went) doesn't start until tomorrow either. I spoil my DD by dropping her off and picking her up from school...something I always wanted my mom to do when I was little.

I can't believe it either. I feel like we were just at the 30 day mark, but time has flown by! We've had many things to keep us occupied and we still have things to do until we leave.

I was behind AGAIN.

Madison looks so grown up for her first day of school.

And you trip is getting so close.

I can't wait to read about your party day. I'm sure Madison will feel so special, a BBB appt, dinner at the castle and the party.

I hope you make to POFQ, Danielle loved the Beignets.

She did look like a little lady yesterday. She had a great day!

2 WEEKS!!!!

I'm hoping I won't be as sad on our last full day since it's going to be so special. I guess I'll have to save all the sadness for departure day.

I must get some beignets!

2 WEEKS!!

Hi Meghan! I saw the first day pics on FB, too, but they are just adorable! She looks so cute with her dress and flats. I want to pull off that look while looking just as cute!

Love the Ohana themed clothes. Your outfit is perfect and I love Madison's outfit. Then again, we had the same shirt for Lily but it was green. Gotta love Kohl's! Seems like we have a lot of same clothing tendencies. Or maybe we just both have shopping addictions.....

Can't wait to hear all about the Ohana breakfast. I think we will need to try for that character meal one day as Lily keeps talking about how she never got Lilo and Stitch together. Her list of people to meet is getting longer and longer.

2 WEEKS!!

I am so excited!!!! 2 weeks from now we'll have already landed at MCO!

I loved her first day of school outfit...the dress is from Target.

I love our 'Ohana clothes too...very Poly! I definately have a shopping addiction!!!! I just can't help it when I see cute clothes...I must have them.

We're really looking forward to our breakfast that last day. It looks so delicious. That's so cute that your DD has a list of characters to meet.

Yay! 2 weeks!!!! It is coming so fast!

TIME FOR THE TWO WEEK DANCE!!!

​

Two weeks from this very moment, I'm not quite sure what we'll be doing. Our flight lands at 9am, so we'll be in Orlando which is awesome.

Madison had a great first day of school yesterday and was very excited for today. She said her teachers (she has 2 teachers who have team taught 3rd grade for the past 3 years together) are super nice and she really likes them. She was also very excited that they have planners this year. They write their assignments in them and parents have to sign them daily. Now, I just have to figure out when to send in the note about vacation!

2 week dance! So excited for you!

Glad Madison had a good first day back at school! I remember the planners. We have them in middle school I think. I don't remember using mine too frequently.

 

[vamassey1]

I'll dance with you!



Now I'm tired.

 

[tinkgurl]

I'm sad you're done with outfit updates too!

 

[Sleeping Jilly]

I was also wondering about when to do school notes, our trip is a surprise so I'm afraid if I tell the school to early my surprise will be found out

 

[Mndisneygirl]

I'll join that 2 week dance!!

Sarah has a planner for the first time this year (4th grade) I'll be curious to see how they use them.

I think you need to watch Lilo and Stitch! Stitch is such a trouble maker - he plays that up at Ohana too!
