Hey thanks for tuning in!! You just might be the kick in the pants I need to finish up this TR!!!
I have some great photos of the fireworks and being at Disney on NYE was so awesome. We spent it at Epcot and had a great time.
I promise I'll try to get finished up soon.
It's just so hard to sit down and find a couple hours to post photos and write.
I started my TR before I got called back to my full time job.
I work for Canada Revenue Agency as a term employee during the busy tax season and I also work as a hair stylist out of my own home. So I work all day and then come home and take hair clients.

Tomorrow is already a busy day ahead. But hopefully next week I will get my last day finished up!!

Wow! You are one busy person. Thanks for taking the time to keep the rest of us going between WDW trips.

Hey, I'm back from a short weekend getaway to Toronto! Me and son went to
to Italian consulate to get our fingers scanned for our Italian Passports!
Now his plan is to go to school in Europe this fall!!

 

[Purpleblanket]

Woo Hoo!! I have the next two days off of work! I really am going to try to get this trip report tied up!!

 

[Purpleblanket]

Ooops! Didn't get my update done!

Went to the beach instead!!

Loving your TR so far! We are going that same week this year, Dec. 26 to Jan. 2, so I am encouraged to see how much you guys got done! We've been a few times before but never at Christmas, so I am freaking out a bit about the crowds!

Thanks for stopping by! I promise I will eventually get finished. I just need to finish up Dec.30 and then our day in Epcot for Dec. 31st.

We had such a great time and we never waited long in lines, but we did get to the parks early and left in the afternoon and then stayed late when we went back. I think the most important thing was to have our reservations done, otherwise it would have been impossible to get into favorite restaurants during the busy christmas week. We also had our ridemax plans and they really work!

Fireworks are so amazing at Christmas. You are going to have such a good time.
I wish we were going back!

Sorry folks! this is not an update. but just not wanting to get deleted either!!

Can not wait to hear about and see the rest of your trip! We were there over the exact same days. I half expect to see us in a picture. In fact is is quiet possible we are in the picture at the sci fi somewhere behind and to the right but it is too dark to tell. We were there about the same time that day if I remember correctly.

We managed to miss the 24 hour stomach bug this time around, but last year at the same time 3 out of 5 of us got it bad!

You have a lovely family and I am enjoying the read!!

I've been silently reading along, too! We're planning to go to Disney from 12/26/12 - 1/2/13 so I'm excited to hear about the rest of your trip!

That 24 hour bug is the WORST! We've only had to deal with it on 2 of our past trips but it is just awful!

Hi Simba!
Thanks for popping in!

I promise I will eventually wind up my last day in park. I just don't want to rush and do it lazy as it was our best day on New Years Eve and we had such a good time. I just wish I had finished up before I was back at my full time job while I have my part time job going as well and now it's summer and I try to spend lots of time outside. But, I will get it done soon!! Next rainy day, I'll be updating!!

You are going to have such a great time! Just be planned for the crowds and get to the parks early!!
Are you staying in right in Disney?

Debbie

Hi Feyrerm!! Welcome!
That would be so funny if you spotted yourself in one of my photos!
Where did you spend NYE?
I'm glad it warmed up on Dec. 30 and Dec. 31 because it had been so cold!!
Where did you stay when you were there?
Did you watch the Osborne lights come on after eating at the Sci-Fi diner that night? They were so cool!!

We stayed at All Star Music. It was the first time not in a deluxe resort because we wanted to try the family suite. The suite was nice but staying in a deluxe is worth it in the long run so we will be staying at riverside when we go again in august.

It was nice that it warmed up late in the stay. New Years Eve was amazing!! We enjoyed it at HS. We have been at Disney over new years eve for many years but have never spent it anywhere else. The band under the hat was a lot of fun and we had a blast!!! This years fireworks were particularly awesome as they were done to the band playing and totally surrounded the hat area!

We love the Osborne Lights. I think we have pictures of about every inch at this point! The dancing light shows are so incredible!

Thanks Marie! I hope to get my last update done this week while I'm off work.

Well, don't give up! You don't have too much left to tell. Thanks for attempting to complete your report.

 

[Purpleblanket]

Thanks Marie.
I really do have good intentions. That is why I keep bringing my thread back to the front again. I'm off work on a medical leave for the next couple weeks and I'm hoping that if I just work on getting my report finished on a word document I can copy and paste and finish up. I do have some good photos to show of New Years Eve. In the meantime, today I finished painting my kitchen and finished reading a book. There is so much to do and so little time!!

I'm sure a lot of people will agree with me!!

Thanks so much for hanging in there with me!
