WHOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm starting to get REALLY excited now!!!

8 more days!!!!!

I wish I was leaving this Saturday!!!!

 

[briar*rose]

I wish I was leaving this Saturday!!!!

me too!! but alas, I still have 33 days left!!!!!!!!

...everyday is like an eternity......

 

[scoutsmom99]

Viki- Woo-hoo you are almost there!! Make sure to keep a light on and save some domes for Wendy and I
Angel- Christmas will be here before you know it. I'm so excited to see what the lodge looks like at Christmas so make sure to take ample pics!!!

Ok anyone ordered anything off the private dining menu or done anything from them? I'm thinking about some sort of desserts and maybe a cheese plate. Do I have to be in the room for them to be delivered? I was thinking it would be great to come back from the parks and have it in the room.


I have gotten a few more things off my list today. I talked to the most fabulous person at the GF bakery and ordered a cake. I reserved a carriage ride for one night at POR.

I'm heading out to lunch with my dad today and then to Target and Wal-Mart to gather some last minutes items.

Last night I decided to ship down the gift bags I'm putting together for my mom and sister so I don't have to try and do the assembling when I arrive. So today I need to get that packed up so I can send it UPS ground tomorrow before work. It will arrive by the end of business day on Thursday according to the UPS website so that is good. I thought about sending it Monday with arrival by end of business day on Friday, but I don't want to risk it not getting there Friday as UPS will only deliver on Sat if it is a Saturday delivery package.

Plus I need to get my last minute itinerary and various information into a smaller 3 ring binder than the 3" one I'm using now.

Oh well at least it is raining today so I don't feel like I'm missing out on a nice day that I could be spending at our State Fair eating pronto pups, cheese curds, deep fried candy bars, mac and cheese on a stick, and porkchops on a stick....

I told her if she could make a note on our ressie that we will be celebrating our anniversary and she did. So I hope we get some extra at checkin and get a free upgrade to savanah!

Hey Briar*Rose, I just noticed we will both be checking into AKL on 9/27! And you're right....33 days is most definately an eternity!!! I've been keeping busy this week making DD's MNSSHP costume which helps a bit to busy my anxious mind!

 

[Angel16]

OK time to arrest Angel16. She made a BIG no no on her siggy! You put ALK instead of AKL next to holidays 2006.

You have one sharp eye Disney 8704.

I have repaired my "boo boo" and promise to try and not let it happen again.

Congrats on your husband coming home from Iraq next month. Our SIL just got home. You and your family will be in my prayers. I'll even send you some Zebra Domes while I'm "home at ANIMAL KINGDOM LODGE" in December.

Angel

You are so organized. I envey you. You can have anything you want delivered to your room from private dinning without having to be there to accept it. As you may remember my DH did a fantastic cake last year. (the one he lost the pictures to....the whole vacation) If you want to pm your e-mail address I have some pictures of something I think you might be intersted it. I do not have anyway to post it here on the thread. But I will be happy to forward the info to you.

Thank you again for the sites for purses. I am not sure what I am going to do yet. There are some new and exciting things happening with our trip that will drastically change the total cost. I know, I am being mysterious.

Jambo,

Angel16

It's almost SCARY to find out each year what they have put on a stick!

I refuse to try the deep fried candy bar on a stick. That just sounds wrong...so so so wrong...! You'll find me near the roasted corn on the cob stand riding the big yellow slide. You are NEVER too old to ride it!!

 

[kimmar067]

Here's to all of you who will be going 'home' real soon...
