January 2009. . . Calling all Snowbirds ~ Part V

[Momof2Disneyboys]

I bought mesh laundry bags for the trip at target over the weekend. We usually stay at CBR and use the bench drawer to hold all our dirty clothes but this time we are staying ASMovies and they don't have a bench drawer so I bought us some laundry bags.

That is too funny, we put our dirty clothes in the bench at CBR too!! I sure hope no one uses it for their clean clothes!

I am so excited! I think it's time to start our 2010 snowbird thread? ​

I was thinking about starting it soon. . . Maybe the beginning of June. Do you think it's too early???

It's never too early!!!!!!

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

You are probably right!! I need to go back and see if I can even find the list of people going in January 2010. . .

How are you doing?

How are you feeling Joni?

All things considered, pretty good. This is my last week off before I start my second round of chemo June 2nd (Oh boy!, NOT!). I am soooo ready to go to WDW in August (fingers crossed that everything works out).

Shelly, Mike said this weekend he wants to go over the Holidays to see the Christmas stuff. So..we just have to see if it's gonna be the first week of Dec or the second. I am not sure yet---as soon as I know I am gonna start a new ticker! I am thinking the 5th thru the 13th---we usually do the first week, but I just can't decide this time!!!!

That sounds like fun! But I am sad that you won't be joining us in January!

YAY for Disney Madness!!!​

I am loving it! You are not alone- we too look at things year round in terms of disney! I am still searching for the best park bag!
Yesterday I did completed my "Have Not" list- all the things we have not done- only attractions ( not restaurants etc.)

I am so excited! I think it's time to start our 2010 snowbird thread? ​

My perfect park bag is a backpack that holds lots and that i can stick in the stroller. Someday I won't have to lug the whole hotel room with me!

I'm hoping naptime will be a good one today so I can work on my "Must Do and See" list for the trip. Wish me luck!

I was thinking about starting it soon. . . Maybe the beginning of June. Do you think it's too early???

Too early???? Haven't you heard I'm already packing!

Can it be a 2010 Snowbirds (and friends) thread? Or maybe Snowbirds....Past and Present?? No matter what you call it, I'll still be there!

Speaking of Disney shirts....Maddie and I were dressed in Disney shirts most of the week back in January. Well, she wore a Disney tee everyday. I wore a non-Disney shirt on our AK day. Anyways....for this upcoming trip, there will be no Disney shirts. Before I get booed, I have an explanation. Almost all of our Disney shirts were t-shirts. That doesn't work for me in June in Orlando. It's just WAY too hot for sleeves. So, we'll be wearing tank tops and halter tops all week. Speaking of clothing, maybe I'll update my PTR with my clothing choices!!

I'm sure Disney makes tank tops too or you can make some!

That is too funny, we put our dirty clothes in the bench at CBR too!! I sure hope no one uses it for their clean clothes!

All things considered, pretty good. This is my last week off before I start my second round of chemo June 2nd (Oh boy!, NOT!). I am soooo ready to go to WDW in August (fingers crossed that everything works out).

I'm glad you have Disney to keep you on track...it's nice to have something wonderful to look forward to when you're facing all this. Keep your spirits up...we're cheering for you!

We definitely need to plan an end of the month meet!

I have two Disney tanks (one with a sparkly tiara on it and one with Tink), but I just wore them on our last trip. I might bring them with us just in case. I don't want to get the trip pictures confused!!! That is so something I would do. I put pictures up in my PTR of clothing that I'm bringing this time. I've been inspired by Soleil and her boho clothing (you rock girl!).

You forgot me I was on there at one point. Jan 22 or 23 - the 30th. (departure date depends on flights- which I hunt down every couple of days).
Don't know where we're staying yet

Well crap! Sorry! You are right, I remember adding you at one point. I never marked the last page I posted the list so I had to go back 20-25 pages to find it, I must have found an older one.

True, no backing out now!

Hi all! Paige is finally on the mend, although I had to keep her home again today since she had a fever within the last 24 hours. It seems to be gone now. She's been singing and dancing today so I know she's feeling better. She has her well-child (HA!) check up at 4:15 today, so we'll get it all checked out while we're there. I have managed to get some work done at home (love wireless!) so that's good. Of course, I'm doing it all in front of the tv where she is watching Disney movies!! Today we've watched HSM 2 and 1 (in that order). Yesterday was HSM 3, Annie, Bolt and something else, like Shrek I think.

That is SO something I do. It seams I only buy new clothes for Disney, and I go back thru pix to amke sure Andy doesn't pack the same tshirts! Glad I'm not the only one to do that!

And thanks, Shelly, I used the CBR bench for clean clothes...at least they were ANDY'S!!! He tends to take up more space than the rest of us combined.

I may have to change our resort. If our friends go with us, I guess we'll either have to do ASMu so they can use the suite, or Port Orleans. Do both Riverside and French Quarter have rooms for 5?? Anyone??

And my trip obsession is officially underway ladies... I made my packing list and my shopping list. Not only that but I already knocked off a couple items on my shopping list.
I bought mesh laundry bags for the trip at target over the weekend. We usually stay at CBR and use the bench drawer to hold all our dirty clothes but this time we are staying ASMovies and they don't have a bench drawer so I bought us some laundry bags. My grocery store had Capri Sun waters on sale so I actually checked the date on the box in the store- yup good through middle of 2010 and I tucked 2 boxes away. Let the madness begin!

YAY for Disney Madness!!!​

I am loving it! You are not alone- we too look at things year round in terms of disney! I am still searching for the best park bag! We went to the Disney Store last night while DD was at Guides! I was able to pick up 2 t- shirts for $7.99 each! Not that I dont have enough shirts. I hummed and Hahhed about it, because after seeing our pictures from the last trip, we were so disneyed out with our shirts- lol - I said next trip I would be less disnefiedOh well something about mickey mouse and tinkerbell on a t shirt and I can't resist maybe it was the $7.99 price tag. I also was able to get dd some summer pjs- she needed them, and I even questioned does she want to sleep in ariel and tink pjs .
I also started sorting out our totes. I confessed last night to the family that I am surpirsed I am not 100% into planning mode. This time last year I had itineraries and days planned.
Yesterday I did completed my "Have Not" list- all the things we have not done- only attractions ( not restaurants etc.)
I really want to do a trip report, but I am photo challeneged at the moment and I think the photos are the best part. I tried to upload pictures to photobucket and post, and it didn't work? I'll keep trying!

I am so excited! I think it's time to start our 2010 snowbird thread? ​

Tonight when I was lying down trying to get Keaton to sleep, I planned our "days" and ADR's...I had to do something to keep my mind occupied so I didn't fall asleep. How's this sound?
Saturday-arrival, walk around Epcot, Coral Reef
Sunday-AK, dinner at WCC
Monday-MK, early ADR CP to see Main Street USA empty, stay for Wishes (long day)
Tuesday-OFF, maybe an evening walk around the Boardwalk and dinner at Big River Grill or Downtown Disney and TRex (if the kids aren't too chicken) or Planet Hollywood
Wednesday-DS, Sci Fi Diner
Thursday-Epcot, Biergarten, Illuminations
Friday-Return to wherever, dinner at Ohana

Am I a complete nerd? I was bummed that our Tball game was cancelled because I could've talked Disney with our friends!!!
