[LISAMWDW]

So sorry about Mr. Whitaker's fall! How sad! I hope he is doing better!

I just love love Lord of the Rings! We must have been watching the same channel cuz we watched it on the same day!

I can't wait to see your tree! Hopefully, we'll get ours up next week!

 

[KatGarcia]

I could so use a Disney Christmas fix...so I will live vicariously through you guys!

 

[hlrababy]

no worries! ray interferes with my dissing sometimes too!

we should all get together and have a LOTR-fest!





another quote from the movie (i don't think it's in the book) i love is where frodo and sam (his best friend) are talking about how they shouldn't even be in the situation they're in and sam says, "it’s like in the great stories, mr. frodo. the ones that really mattered. full of darkness and danger, they were. and sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. because how could the end be happy? how could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? but in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. even darkness must pass. a new day will come. and when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. those were the stories that stayed with you. that meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. but i think, mr. frodo, i do understand. i know now. folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. they kept going. because they were holding on to something." then frodo says, "what are we holding onto, sam?" and sam says, "that there’s some good in this world, mr. frodo… and it’s worth fighting for. "

That sounds good to me!! I love those movies!! I could watch them again and again!!

That is one of my favorite quotes from the movie. Sam can just make me get teared up really easy!

What a great quote from the movie, thanks. I will make a point to maybe read the books (I don't read as much as I should), but I'll definitely watch the movies. I am a bit worried, I don't need another addiction like I have with Disney..,

I can see waiting to see what the weather is like before packing. I wish I had your problem, deciding what to wear! I would pack my whole closet if it meant I could go too!

vandyfan I think there was another bunk in that room for me. I like Cars and for sure I like Tinkerbell. I still havn't seen it, I'm patiently waiting for my bday in a few weeks. It is so hard to wait, why do I torture myself?

 

[scottny]

I am all caught up. You are so close. I hit 10 days at midnight so I am excited.

Maybe we will see you at MK on that Saturday we will be there then we are eating at Kona but not till 8pm

Love to see you and say hello and take a pic.

Looking forward to hearing about the trip. sounds like it should be fun.

If you go with plan 2 on the 14th at Epcot we will be there all day (drinking) sshh. don't tell anyone.

 

[punkin413]

To see the CASTLE??!!??!!??!!??? Are you kidding me.....big deal! I don't even care if he snores!

i told anna today that you may be bunking with luke. she said that was fine but to let you know you'd have to take me on the next trip you and matt went on!

WOOHOO!!! 8 DAYS!!!!!

I'm soooo jealous! There weren't many Christmas decorations up when we were there three weeks ago - and we really missed seeing them. I'm not making this mistake next year - I NEED to make our annual trip during the holidays!

Can't wait to see your house decorations. I wanted to put ours up too this weekend but it was miserable out - unseasonably warm but rainy. I'm sure I'll now be stuck outside doing it this weekend when the temps. will be back down to the 30s!

i still don't have my outside decorations up.....i haven't had time! but they're going up tomorrow morning. i'll be sure to take lots of christmas decorations pictures!

You can sleep on our pull out couch at VWL

don't tempt her!

ray's mom hasn't said anything so i guess no news is good news! i could watch lord of the rings (all three) over and over and not get sick of them. i hope peter jackson decides to do "the hobbit" one day!

I could so use a Disney Christmas fix...so I will live vicariously through you guys!

you don't have to wait too long now!

right now the forecast is no rain, lows in the upper 50s and highs in the lower 80s, which sounds wonderful to me! i hope it stays that way. if so, we'll be wearing jeans and short sleeves and then putting on jackets at night. i can deal with that!

oh, you'll love tinker bell. it's a cute story and the graphics and scenery in the movie are really pretty.

so today marks ONE WEEK UNTIL WE LEAVE!!!!!!!!!!

i'm SO excited! i went over to anna's house this morning because we really hadn't talked about our plans in detail - she's trusted my judgment to plan the trip and i've asked her questions here and there, but nothing major. so today we went over everything and it made both of us just really excited!

that means that it's time to play, "THIS TIME NEXT WEEK"!!!!!

this time next week we will be well on our way to disney world. my guess is we'll be almost to valdosta by this time and nearing the florida state line!

nothing too exciting....yet!

i STILL haven't gotten my outside christmas decorations up yet! i just haven't had time. but i don't have to be in court until 1:00 tomorrow so i'm gonna do it tomorrow morning. i'll post pics tomorrow night unless something comes up!

oh, and a couple other things. first, i have been calling disney dining once a day for the past couple of weeks, just trying to tweak some of my dining times. i got teppan edo on thursday at 4:30 so i'm gonna cancel our 3:00. i just think 4:30 will work out better.

and of course i'm already obsessing over the weather! right now here's the forecast:

Thursday, Dec 11

Just wanted to wish all of you soon-to-go folks a great time! We had a very nice time last week, and the weather was perfect - not too hot and not too cold. We wore lightweight jackets in the early mornings and after the sun went down, but it was fine in the day time.

The crowds were there, but manageable, so now that they've thinned out from the holiday week, things should be great for you guys.
