Just Bought our tickets!!!!!

[SnowWhite]

Snowwhite just purchased our tickets using the mousesavers link to ticketmania and we are all doing the happy dance now. Our trip is still 63 days away but it seems so real now as it is almost all paid off. We purchased the 10 day premium hopper plus tickets for Snowwhite, myself, and DD(8). DS is only 2 and no need for tickets this time. We plan on only using 2-3 days on those tickets this time as we are also attending the MNSSHP as well and that takes care of a park pass. We are possibly planning a trip for next christmas as well and will already have at least 7-8 days left on our tickets (thanks for the idea hockeymom). The only expense other than lodging will be tickets for DS and we will get him a premium hopper plus as well matching our tickets, or just go 10 day as well if the price is right. We bought the no expiry option and will save the water parks for down the road when our son gets alittle older and will enjoy them more. We figure we should get about 3 trips out of these tickets so it is a good buy for us. Again, we are all bouncing off the walls.........

Good for you!!! Have a great trip

...that's exactly how we felt when we booked our room...things are in motion...it's not just a dream...it will soon be a reality

With the buck so good right now, I'm going to order our tickets and pay off the balance for the hotel real soon.

Getting the 10 day no expiry tickets... have to plan more trips... good thinking, lol

 

[FayeW]

Our trip is in 56 days and I am also trying to decide whether to go with 7day expire or 10 day non-expire. I thought I had it figured out, but I'm not sure I want to spend the extra $500. I'll be ordering through mousesavers link also.

Congrats! Maybe I'll see you there!

 

[SnowWhite]

You might, we'll be the people with two kids........


Sorry couldn't resist! I'd go with the 10 day non-expire especially since this is your first time going. You might get overwhelmed and this way you are ready to book your next trip when you get back. We are staying at POP Oct 28-29, and OKW Oct 30-Nov 4. Where are you staying?

We're 63 days out too - and staying at POP from 27 October to November 5! What day are you going to MNSSHP?

And, on a much more sickening note, with respect to your signature we have another strange coincidence. We discovered and caught a mouse, in the house (basement) today. Uggghhh! Why does the "man" always have to empty the traps? Now, where is that emoticon that throws up?

 

[SnowWhite]

We are going to MNSSHP on the 30th! We will be a POP from the 28th till the 30th then moving to OKW! Funny my parents had a mouse in their basement one day and my DD (then 4)chased it around trying to catch it while my sister (then 40ish) screamed hysterically!! No one was able to catch it because we were laughing at my sister so much!!

Maybe we will catch you at the POP!! When are you doing MNSSHP?

Just a mouse in your house? We had a chipmunk living with us for a few weeks (chewed a hole through our patio screen ) until I made DH set a rodent trap!!!

Rob, great news about your ticket purchase. You are all set to go now!!!

Good call Rob. It's not much more to up to the 10 day and it's a great feeling having a big chunk out of the way for the next trip.

Hubby and I are getting AP's with our new DVC $100 off discount.

I am going to get the kids 10 day passes because they are not coming with us again next October.

 

[SnowWhite]

I wish we could get away with that but our daughter would disown us!! LOL!!

To be honest I don't like the idea. This is my sister's idea. She wants the 4 of us to go down for the food and wine festival in October- Adult's only. Now more than ever I want all my trips to include my kids. It should be fun though. We are going to do Pleasure island and La Nouba.

The kids are going in December and then back in May for the surfing lessons at TL.

We'll be there on the 31st (our friends don't arrive till late on the 30th so this was the only night we could all go as a group).

In November 1996 my then very pregnant wife and I arrived home after a lonngggg drive from WDW - I'd been at the wheel for about 13 hours (she didn't have her license yet). It was about 11 p.m. and I remember sitting on the couch, eating something from McDonald's, just getting ready to veg in front of the t.v. and relax from the drive when I heard a blood curdling scream from the kitchen. I bolt into the kitchen and find my wife, not really looking at anything, holding her face and screaming blue bloody murder. As a soon to be first time father, my first thought was "the baby", something's gone wrong with the baby. I remember looking at her stomach and thinking, "nope, she's still pregnant". Next theory? No time - she screams again. By now I'm standing in front of her, looking right at her - I grab her shoulders and say "What in the he..." when she screams again! So now I'm thinking "she's snapped", something has gone really wrong here. I mean, it was a long drive, but not that long. And then I think, I'm gonna have to slap her - not in the abusive sense, but just to bring her back to reality. I steel myself for the next scream, and the action that will probably be my last when finally, thankfully, she speaks.

"A MOUSE! I just saw a MOUSE!!!!!"
"Just a mouse, honey?"
"I was, sob, putting bread in the toaster and he just LEAPED out at me!" (She gesticulates in a fashion that reminds me of Scar, leaping through the flames before landing on Simba).
"Are you OK now, though?"
"How are you going to get rid of it?"

The reader will note the presumptive nature of the question - not will you get rid of it, but how will you get rid of it.

It was a long night, with me playing the role of the dutiful hunter, protecting his pregnant wife from the killer mouse.

DisFan2, you made me laught alot this afternoon!!!! I'm sure I would of said the same thing to my husband!!!

A few years ago I was starting the BBQ and closed the lid to let it warm up when I heard this "squeak" from within.....Well when I opened the lid out "leaped" a poor smoking mouse. I'm sure his tiny little feet were char-broiled, poor thing. I wouldn't eat anything BBQ'ed for a looooong time!! I still don't like to start the BBQ! Of course hubby thought it was hysterical.

Great story. Thanks for the laugh.
