Are we still at a total of 8 for our DisMeet on July 20th???

I think so. I know what I really would love to bring to the meet, but will have to settle for something else as I need to able to bring it in our carryon since we are arriving that day and I would be afraid that I wouldn't get my luggage on time.

But what I really wanted to bring was coffee syrup. RI is famous for coffee milk. It is just like chocolate syrup but coffee flavored but the bottles would be over the TSA limit.

He is HOME!!!!

How wonderful. Your family is just beautiful. And do thank your DH for his service to this country and also your sacrifice of being away from him for such long periods of time

Same for Amanda... your DH should be home soon too

 

[grandmadebby2]

Just 17 and a wake up and I'll be at Disney World. Hope everyone who is ther now is having a great time.

Thanks for keeping page 1 updated! Your coffee syrup sounds great - but I totally understand the TSA issues - I had thought about mini Ketchup bottles, because Heinz ketchup is made in Pittsburgh, but I was worried about transporting and breakage etc.......

Just 17 and a wake up and I'll be at Disney World. Hope everyone who is ther now is having a great time.

The thread seems a lot quieter - I think our first big wave has left for the World! For a few days, it was really busy here - hope everyone is having a great time.

I really need to get busy with packing. I am way behind! I feel like I need to get past July 4th then I can really get busy. Doing and hopefully a trip to Kohls, I have some Kohls cash that needs to be used so I might try to find some sandals.

jimi

Is that all over PA then with the cops and construction or just on the turnpike? I'm leaving EARLY in the morning to drive down to VA and I go through PA but don't take the pike.

I got an email from him this morning, he's already started to pack his bag for R&R He also says he's keeping busy at work to make the time go buy faster and that he FINALLY got the movies I sent to him via another soldier about 3 month's ago I will FULLY begin to count down the days to seeing my DH again once the 7th arrives.


So tomorrow, I will be up at 3am to get the rest of the stuff in the car, the kid's, the cats and lastly the ice for the cooler. Then I will be on my way to my mom's. Still trying to figure out what the girls and I are going to do while we wait because we have done the Smithsonians so many times but they never seem to get old lol. I will try to get online as much as I can while I'm there though I'm not sure how often that will be. I will deffinately update when DH arrives though!

Will you add us to the July group please. We will be at POR July 22-25. We have been fortunate to live close to Mickey for 3 years, but are moving to VA. Movers come on the 20th, we will be cleaning and then heading for one last weekend at WDW until who knows when.

Hey Melissa - this is Wendy from FB/July09 - so glad you joined the July Board.....we also have a July 11 FB page - if you have any ADRs I am keeping up the list - just let me know. We will be at the Boardwalk July 12-26th. Too bad the movers are coming on the 20th - we are having a DISmeet at Epcot at 4pm that day. Maybe we could catch up later that week.......

Wow that is a long time to get the movies!

Have a safe trip tomorrow!! I am sure you have done the National Zoo - but that is another option. We used to live in Silver Spring MD so I know what you mean about the Smithsonians. Will keep my fingers crossed that the sand storms do not mess with your DHs travel......

Yep, we've done the zoo but then again new animals are born all the time and the National Zoo is HUGE! It will also be excellent pre-walking for Disney

So I had a plan to have everyone in the house done with dinner by 4pm but somehow the pans I used to cook the pizza's on got airfreshener on them (or something similar) because the pizza tasted like soap. I have since ordered a pizza for delivery. Meghan and I will then be taking ALL the garbage and recycling out to the curb to reduce our "to do list" in the morning. Laundry is all done with ONE basket left to fold. Outfits for the morning are all picked out with the exception of mine. Tonight is going to be an early to bed, early to rise night for me (in bed by at least 6pm when I've been staying up till 2am lol) and I will check back in after I get to my Mom's house!

To All Those Going Down to Orlando Already~

Have a SAFE and great trip! Take load's of pictures to show your friend's at home and on here!

Ketchup was a great idea too! DD puts it on everything

As for packing I can't even think about that yet as we leave for Maine for several days so I need to pack for that first. But I think the weekend before we leave I will be running around like a maniac

Welcome to the state of Texas! I used to live in El Paso!!

Ketchup was a great idea too! DD puts it on everything

As for packing I can't even think about that yet as we leave for Maine for several days so I need to pack for that first. But I think the weekend before we leave I will be running around like a maniac

Ketchup would work if it would travel well, but what a mess if they broke!

Yes, I will be a maniac next weekend!!
