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

[grandmadebby2]

Cancelled ADR's except the Castle on July 22nd and Crystal palace on July 22nd. Contemplating some major vacation plan changes.

 

[kennethsrib]

So are you telling me that it's more important to plan your vacation than chat with people on the interwebz?

LOL no I wouldn't SAY that but its what's been happening! year end field trip, fun days, pack a lunch, make a list, hurry hurry hurry.

Today I am making t shirts for my girls, first time attempting this, if they turn out well I will post pics later today.

Hope everything is ok.

We had big plans when we got started planning on this trip and we had to make major changes. The important things are that we are going, together, and I really don't care if we eat pb and j all week long!

Goodmorning everyone I never got a chance to get on the DISboards last night. I see alot of new people

I just ordered my photo pass CD! This is a first for me and I'm so excited! Someone please remind me, can I use it for photo's they take prior to meals like at Tusker House, 1900 Park Fare, and O'hana? I will be so photo pass card happy when we are in the parks!

We are also going to be having a family picture taken on the bridge in the Wilderness lodge in the evening! I've bought myself a white eyelette dress, DH a white polo and the girls have their dresses that I bought earlier this year too!

I just have to do a little because I'm excited for all of us! Our trips are going to be starting soon!

I always preorder the photopass too. This site is awesome for the different shots you can get http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disneysphotopass/

And like Gray replied unless you purchase most of the restuarant photo's you can not add them to your photopass. And those, like the one from CRT will need to be added when you get home. You enter the little number on the side.

We're going midweek because the flights were cheaper

That when we mostly fly. Did anyone see the SW flights went down.

Perfect! Could someone change the info to 12pm on the front page? I will edit my original list

Will do

I started shopping month's ago, but I can't seem to stop

My name is Michelle and I have a shopping problem too I have bought so many blank colored tshirts for everyone I can open my own store I have an addiction when I see a shirt all I can think of is appliquing something on it for Disney.

We'll be at Pop Century from July 29th-Aug 8th!

Ok, so I got really mad this morning when i was going through some mail my son must have (cause I sure didn't) brought in earlier in the week and threw on the counter. Why did I get mad you might ask?







Because MY ME TAGS were in that mail!!!





Apparently he didn't notice the big return address mouse in the pilot wings

So I have gotten my mickey mail, just didn't get the joy of actually finding it in the mail box or knowing about it.

What?

What?

That can't possibly be true!

The newest stressor: a job offer for my husband, who is behaving poorly with it. You know, life, I'm cool with having a lot on my plate to make vacation a little sweeter, but you can take a break, please!

 

[gray2402]

[gray2402]

We are UNDER 20 DAYS!!!!!!!!!

We started our countdown list at around 90 days (I have no idea what I was thinking... I am lucky my kids are patient kids )

So to be UNDER 20 is amazing!!!!!!!!!! WOOHOO!​

 

[disneywatcher]

Nice!! We have 5 in our family so our choices of where to stay were limited... we went with POR because we stayed there years ago and enjoyed the Boat to DTD and renting a small boat on the river ...

We have a family of 5 too so after my YDD turns 3 either we will be staying in a Family suite or a cabin or doing a CL suite @ the WL. Disney need's more choices for family's of 5 or more.

Hello All! We will be at AKL on 7/25 thru 7/31!

I hope not! I've been on here and FB and trying to work in my trip plans lol.

On the upside for Mickey Mail!

On the downside for your son throwing it on the counter and totally missing the DME envelope!

everyone

Hi Michelle! My name's Amanda and I have a smiliar problem. Blank Tshirts, kid's clothes in stores, hand sanitizer...it's all open game for me to buy for a Disney trip! I see cute disigns on shirts and wish I had an embroidery machine to do more then what I can do. I see cute matching clothes that look so comfy and have to buy them for my kid's. My 2 duffel bags are getting close to bursting at the seams and yet I keep going!


Today I plan on finishing my packing, printing out new ressie cards and other information for DH to choose from, cleaning my dining room, finishing off DD's AK tshirt, printing out my LGMH that Grey made for me (Thank you again Grey!) and then laminating all my printed out stuff. Then I'm putting it all in my van.

 

[juliebug1997]

I haven't seen this mentioned here but did you all see that they're going to start doing Fantasmic! every night between now and September/October? I was disappointed because I wanted to see what DHS was like on a non F! day and I also wanted to do the big character meet and greet. Oh well.

My name is Julie and I usually spend tons of money leading up to vacation. However, this year, I'm doing a little better. Although, I want some sandals to wear while we are there. So, yeah. I'll be shopping.

 

[PrincessEmma630]

We're staying offsite, so no Mickey Mail for us....but I thought I'd just throw in that we got our park tickets from Undercover Tourist today!! That's just as exciting I guess

Only 21 days til we leave!

I, too, have been shopping like crazy. I've paid off our Kohl's charge about 7 times in the past 3 or 4 months and keep telling myself that's the last trip we need to make. Nope, that didn't work....went to the mall last night. I guess I'll be done shopping by the time we leave!

This is why I have an addiction. So if you see us in the parks you can stop and say HI or run the other way because we look like Disney Freaks

Here are a few more outfits I finished:

[OneBadApple]

I know I missed a whole bunch but am only able to get over here every couple of days or so and there is so much to read.

I still need to get both kids new sneakers. I may need a couple more pair of shorts. The kids ensure me they are all set on clothes.

I'm still attempting to get adjusted to contacts. In fact the doctor wants be to try a different kind. I hope they get the trials in my tomorrow, so I can try them for a week and get them ordered before our trip. My DD decided she wants to try contacts so we have an appointments on Sat. afternoon. Hopefully it would take her as long as me to finally get settled in on the correct prescription and type.

I have not heard from my TA yet and am getting concerned. We are 23 days away and IIRC I always have my Mickey mail before this.

I hope that is not true. Last I checked, they added a couple of nights, but was not every night.

Tickets are just as exciting as Mickey Mail.

This is my first time at DVC so my first time not getting the stuff for my package.



Miprender, I did have you in my quote, but somehow you got lost. Awesome outfits!!!


Now you are all embarrassing me. So I went looking in the fabric stash. And I have lots and lots of Disney fabric.

I do not applique...not well, anyway. I have been known to use fabric paint on occasion. I'm going to see what I can come up with.

Ok it's offical, I'm going to require your services for my DW trip next year with my DSis and my DSMom. And if we get a move to TX/WA then I will be paying you for DL outfits too! I LOVE the Mad Hatter Mouse Ears! Ohh and the shorts/skirts! You could make serious bank on Ebay/Etsy!

I get my contacts from Walmart. Do you have a stigmatism (I know my spelling is horrible)? I have one and it took about 2 tries for them to find a set that would work with my eyes. Don't forget you can also get a copy of your script and take it anywhere to get it filled.

Ladies and Gentlemen, my house is offically clean! Now I have to keep it this way until we leave for VA which MIGHT be a day earlier! DH just informed me that he's leaving out of there a few day's earlier!!!! I get to hold my hubby sooner then I thought!
