July 2011:Calling all planners-Post your dates & Resort

Happy 2011 everyone!! haven't been here for so long, I had too much to do with studying:guilty:
But now I can finally say: we're going to book within the next 14 days!!
CBR with park hopper & waterpark fun and more tickets for two whole weeks :banana: !!!!! (7/16 - 7/30)
The only thing is: my boyfriend has to get the employer's OK for our vacation.(because of that, we have to wait these 14days till we can book)
So pleeeaaase wish me luck that he gets this OK!!!!
 
But in better news, as I'm sharing with EVERYONE: I had surgery on 11/16. As of today, I'm FREE! Off crutches, out of my leg brace, and looking forward to a BRIGHT future with no more chronic knee troubles!

:woohoo: YEAH... no crutches

DD and I will be at SOG from 10 July to 16 July!!:cool1: I haven't been since I was 18 (just last week or maybe that was 1991:lmao:) and this will be DDs first trip. Today I told my boss that if he didn't hurry up and approve my leave for July, I was giving my 6 months notice because I started making ADRs this morning. :cool2: This was met by a blank stare and a nervous laugh...
 

Success! ADR's made!

My rockin' travel agent was up early and got them all taken care of, for me, my husband, my parents, my brother, his wife, and their baby.

Good timing, too! We woke up to a snowstorm that left a whopping 3" (hey, it's enough, here!) and my parents are stuck at home in the storm hitting New England.
 
We already have the plane tix, just have decide which Disney resort to stay at... So we will be there from July 3rd thru July 13th
:woohoo:Very Excited!!!!:woohoo:

when we decide which resort I will add it here!!! :)

:welcome: Disney has changed so much since you last were there. You are going to have so much fun. Non Disney people don't get the whole ADR thing.:rotfl: I still haven't told my boss I will be gone for 2 weeks.:confused:

:cool1: Next week I can start. Where do your parents live. I am in RI and we got hit hard with a lot of show. :cold:

:wave2: Did you start making any dining plans yet? I see you are from Mass- Did you get a lot of snow too?

They live in Central MA and got buried. My brother and his wife live in Western MA and also got buried. We got 3" of snow and the city came to a standstill. :rotfl:

Of course, once the TA made our ADRs, we all met up on Google chat and then figured out the rest! The TA made an ADR for my brother on my reservation, my parents therefore made one (at the same time) for us on their reservation... and my brother made one for my parents on his reservation. There MIGHT have been an easier way to do this, yes? :rolleyes1

Noel22 I am planning on staying there but maybe coming on the 15 leaving on the 18!! How fun:)
 
My leave has been approved for July!! :banana: Our vacation is a GO! Just have to buy plane tickets now, which I plan to do in the next few days!:cool1: We're goin' to Disney, we're goin' to Disney....
 
My trip is SO CLOSE to becoming a reality! We're still in the process of getting an adult to come with us, and my friend is desperately trying to get her BF to come with us, but other than that, it's just a matter of finding the right flight! We would probably book the hotel (we're pretty sure it's gonna be All Star Music) around the same time we get the flight, and not worry about the tickets until we get closer to leaving.

Yayyyy!!! :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:
 
Congrats!! I am GETTING excited!! I am reading about my resort right now. I still haven't picked my resturants yet. I want us to go to Crystal Palace on the last night, Chef Mickey's on the first night but need a different kind for the night inbetween. I want something good but something different. We will not be doing the dining plan because my two DDs are PICKY! Everywhere we go they just eat chicken strips. Well the younger one will eat steak, A WHOLE ONE!!! Any ideas???

Are your parents getting sick of all this snow we keep getting in New England. :sick: We are suppose to get another 6-8 inches tomorrow:sad2: I am so ready for summer.


We will be staying July 26-30th offsite at Bonnet Creek, which we just booked today. We can't wait!:goodvibes
:welcome: I've never stayed at Bonnet Creek but I have read that thread and alot of people love it there. It looks like a cool place to stay.

I placed all of our ADR's for 8 with no problems. I love that!

Yeah:banana: I can't wait, I can book mine on Saturday. The only problem we are having my son's bday party that day. I guess I will get up early and be online a 6am.:surfweb:

What resort are you staying at? I'll add it to the list.

As for restaurants, we ate dinner at Liberty Tree Tavern and my DS5 loved the strip steak. He ate almost the whole platter:rotfl: I know some people don't like the food there, but we found it to be really good. The nice thing they serve all the food family style so you don't even have to go up to the buffet.

They are! I keep doing my countdown until I leave for my Disney Dream trip on Facebook and they keep replying with "jealous". ;)

Today, though, here in SE Michigan, our high (with windchill) is predicted to be -5. Brr. Two weeks until we leave for Florida...!
 
Can anyone direct me in the EMH for July? We are arriving on the 15th and leaving on the 18th! TIA
 
Just booked first ADR - :banana: it's starting to feel real now!! Yeay!!! Probably won't book many this year, kind of like to go with the flow rather than plan our whole holiday round our meals and as we don't have the dining plan this year it doesn't really matter. Have booked Hollywood and Vine though as DS LOVES OSO!! :-)

Now I need to go and figure out why my ticker cuts off the months!! :-(
