Life’s too short...to never sleep in a treehouse! 8/27 TR is up! Link in siggie

[eandesmom]

Being at YC gives you a few more options. You can definitely let folks sleep in while other head out early. Then can be over to join you in 15 minutes or less...

Huge part of the reason YC beat out the Treehouse! That and Sandie isn't exactly a Treehouse kind of gal

The boys are offcially over their non-THV dissapointment. Amazing what looking at pictures of the YC and SAB will do.

WOW is all they kept saying. It was so cute!

Of course they still keep bringing up Blizzard Beach but I'm really not planning on adding that, it's just too much $$.

As my DH runs out to get some rum for some hot buttereds for the EVE, I'm sneaking in some posting time!

Here's what I took away:

1) The boat decs. remind me of the Fort ones I"ve seen.

exactly! just on a boat

2) The Sound looks so pretty!!

It was SUCH a pretty day. A bit cold but not too bad, most of my pics at sunset were grainy which was kind of a bummer.

3) Did you get the snow that Portland got over the last couple of days??

nope, not a flake here yet! tons in the mountains though so snowboard boy is happy

4) I"m hoping Sandy weighs in too. I really want her to feel like she was included and is happy!
I think she will, poor thing had the stomach flu and is swamped with a HUGE church project so it wouldn't surprise me if she doesn't look at it till late Jan. She had a huge brunch planned for Sunday, table set, food all made and got sick Sat night and had to cancel it!
5) Mellow describes ours too- just enough "reflection"/ ample yummies/ perfect amount of party.

6) Did I influence that viewing of Princess Bride??

inconceivable!

7) So stoked the kids got what they had sugar plum dreams about.



8) The shirt cracks me up, and I want one, but it won't fly around here. Would be totally lost on my audience.

9) Sound like you should stick with your package- you've certainly analyzed it thoroughly (i'm tempted to go crass here with my wording, but won't as per my promise to keep things clean here).

yeah, clean thread remember?

10) Hmmm... touring?? I"d go with a PM EMH at AK in a flash!! Do it if you can. Also, go with what your bodies say. YOu know you'll want to be up late, so I will imagine that you will want to hit the late night stuff most.

We will definitely do PM AK EMH, the question is more do we do the full day on EMH day like we did last time or not try b/c of the August heat, do we do 3 half days to fit it all in since if we need to take pool breaks daily or do I just plan it as 2 afternoon 1/2 days, one being the EMH day to fit in the dinner at Sanaa. I did some online peeking and it is crazy how booked up Tusker is already for 4 and 5 months out. I have a feeling it won't show me the EMH times b/c I wasn't logged in as a resort guest, it isn't finding my ressie for some reason.

Which is probably due to the fact we changed dates and it may mean all dining reservations over the phone if that's the case. BLEH.

What a wonderful Christmas recap. Sounds like you have had a relaxing break!

You might not need a break on AK day, I know it will be hot and miserable but if you have a goal of seeing the shows they are going to keep you cooler than if you were outside the entire time.

I think the limited park hours of AK mess with my touring plans too. I hate that it closes to early but I understand why.

I know it is SO early! I get it too. I have a goal of seeing the shows. not so sure about the rest of the clan but I know that last time we didn't get there till 11 and even though it was EMH, it was SO crowded that we just really got in all the main things and didn't even have time for a show. Hopefully we can get there a lot earlier this time but still, I'm leaning towards planning 3 half days.

Well it took me two days, but I finally caught up!

Love, love, love your Christmas decorations - especially the little houses!! We got a Lionel train this year and I want to start adding houses.

I also love your planning pages - they are fantastic!!

Sorry about the whole soccer schedule thing... I understand the waiting game, but I'd say yours is much worse than mine...

And my last silly comment is "hot dogs". Way back in October, you mentioned flying with a small cooler to bring some bagels, fruit and maybe cream cheese. With carry on restrictions, ice & ice packs are a no-no. However, frozen hot dogs make great ice packs!

I hope to stay caught up now... can't wait to see how all the plans work out!

Hi Amy!

I didn't know there were Lionel houses, that would be cool! The train is a LOT bigger than the village, it would be neat to have it all together somehow but there is no room to do it.

No worries on the schedule, we are SO used to it! I'm proceeding with the dates we have, we won't start looking at airfare until April anyway and if we change dates it will be around then and hopefully, it's a non issue! I wouldn't mind going earlier and keeping the PIN code instead of switching it to Free Dining as I think it will be less crowded but it will really depend on flight prices, K's schedule and whether what we want is still available at YC and HRH.

Hot dogs!



We actually will not be doing the cooler thing. We'll be getting a town car that will take us to HRH with a grocery stop on the way and then it will take us to the YC on transfer day. I'll also have a garden grocer order delivered to the YC and we will pack the things (like good coffee!) that don't make sense to buy there, or don't exist!

But that's a pretty cool idea.

Well with the park hoppers you should be in business!! I really believe the 1/2 days at AK work well... to get FPs and everythings. Did you say you would have a car? IF so, the dining reservations at different locations are no problem -- we didn't have trouble with that on any of our trips, and it gave us a lot of freedom! If two 1/2 days don't work for you, still zipping over for dinner one night isnt a problem... I thought you said you were doing Tusker breakfast? Maybe AM at AK for that and stay til mid day, then back to resort, etc.... Then go in the afternoon the night you have dinner, and tour, have dinner, then go to the park with late EMHs? That way you still get lots of sun and relax time by the pool, which is totally worth it, and still get the park time in... Anyhow, I am sure you will come up with a perfect plan for you all!

Love the North West photos... are there deals for Disneyland through AA? Interesting.... And Alaska? Interesting....

We are skipping a car, it gets so pricey as we'd either need 2 cars or a full size van and even a mini van for the first few days is more expensive than the town car we will be using.

And it's vacation, none of us want to drive, part of the reason we picked HRH and the YC.

It will be Tusker dinner actually, not breakfast. I'm really hoping to do one sit down breakfast with the grand gathering bfast at Tony's but getting the teens up to eat out for bfast once will be challenging enough! All of our ADR's will be dinner, lunches will be CS.

There are a lot of deals for Disneyland out right now though the best are via Alaska Airlines direct. AAA has packages, as does Costco with some cool add on's and there is a good Disney Visa promo that has some swag. The deals are

30% off resort room only
buy 3 get 2 at DL resort hotels

The sites all show a buy 3 get to at any of the good neighbor hotels but most offer either the 3rd or 4th night free, not buy 2 get 3

Alaska has kids fly free from certain cities which is what we will be doing and there is no park ticket requirement if you book through them. I'm trying to find out why Disney's package (or though AAA or Costco) is $180 higher than the Alaska one when all the components are identical as I really want the visa promo stuff!

Costco's includes a character breakfast but you are definitely paying for it so it's not a deal.

 

[eandesmom]

You just made me spit out my cheese!
There needs to be a spitting smilie!


******************************************************

Oh my lots to comment on.
Christmas, what a fun day! You have me beat and we were at Disney! Well until the big kids left anyway!
I want to come and play on your beach!
Have you played TSM on the Wii? So much fun! I have it on my iphone too and drive everyone crazy with it!

I'm a GIANT fan of Tusker House for breakfast before the park opens....
love it. We've done it twice before and will do it again. It's that good!

Hi Anita!

A spitting smilie would be good. Right up there with the coffee spewing!

I'd love to do Tusker bfast but getting teens up and over to AK in time for breakfast is beyond my abilities



The plan is to go there for dinner.

You have TSM on your phone? How cool is that!

I haven't played TSM yet on the wii, we were Wii overloaded and the boys actually have spent almost all their time since xmas building this huge knex coaster (instead of electronics, YAY!) so TSM hasn't been on since xmas day but it will be tonight and I fully intend to play it!

I love cheese, but the result is nauseous for everyone around me....

I think you mean noxious.

Note to self: Never invite Jordan on fondue night!

No kidding!

That's too funny. The one and only time I had fondue I was at my bosses house for a Christmas party (circa 1983) and she had fondue. It was soooo good.

Yeah, the result was instant gas. We couldn't stop laughing because I basically had to stand by the sliding glass door for the rest of the night while we were playing games.

I love your Christmas recap and absolutely love your dining choices!

MMMMM. . .I could go for some Tutto Italia right now. . .

Me too! Well, me too for dinner lol

I wonder why fondue went out of fashion?

high maintenance

not to mention it takes forever to eat!

People like me

that too!

Cynthia, enjoyed you Christmas installment.

We've been lazing around the house since we got back from visiting family. For the drive we rented:

Fly Away Home
Aliens in the Attic
Iron Man
Fred Claus

A pretty diverse grouping there. We just finished Fred Claus...there's a good scene were Fred (Santa's brother) is in "Siblings Anonymous" with Frank Stallone, Roger Clinton, and Steven Baldwin.

We've been playing a lot of Wii, and an oldie-but-a-goodie game we got was Pit. Surprsingly, the kids have enjoyed that, and it doesn't require any electricity!

Oh I love Iron Man! We've had a lot of Wii too, they've been rotating through the new games, TSM, Mario, Wii Fit and Mario and Sonic at the Winter Olympics.

Pretty funny, they measured one of the cats BMI on Wii fit...

My sides hurt.

I don't know. I love me some cheese dipping. I've also done the fondue where you use oil and deep fry stuff. Mmmmmm...

Christmas 1983 - The Day The Fondue Died.


You guys are making being at work on NYE so much more enjoyable!

not to mention CHOCOLATE fondue!

Hey, that was my first visit to Disney World.....sounds like it was a good thing I was on the east coast.

I was just thinking "I guess everyone's at home DISing today". Sometimes going to work around the holidays can be good...It's quiet and you can get a lot of work done.

What a relaxing Christmas! We had a relaxing Christmas here too. Well, relaxing until I had to put together countless Lego and Playmobil sets for my nephew.

You have great restaurant choices. We're going in August too and can't wait for the calendars to come out. I would definitely factor in some time to get used to the time zone change. When I travel to California, I try to sleep in on the first morning and not get up at a ridiculously early time.

What are you up to for New Years? My family has a big New Years blowout. I never go to Times Square or any of the overcrowded clubs. It's just too crazy. Plus, it snowed this morning so everything is a mess.

I'm hoping the red eye will help force the time change. It did in '04 but we had little kids so who knows. In Feb I could not get K&T out of bed before 9:30 and then it was sloooooowwwww going at that. I figure we've got the Universal days to try to adjust. Fingers crossed!

Ah playmobil and lego! I'm glad the boys are old enough to build their stuff themselves. For the most part. Eric put together the playmobil advent calendar and didn't get the slots right so many of the items slid to the bottom of the box. They'd open a day and it'd be empty. The could see a picture of what was supposed to be there! On the 24th it was like a party.

No real plans tonight actually. We are invited to my sisters but neither of us like to be on the road on NYE plus we have K&T tonight and are waiting to find out what they have in mind as it's probable they are invited to friends houses etc and we will have some facilitating to do. Once we know what they are up to (or want to be up to) we will figure it out. I think Jeff is making his lasagna!

 

[winkers]

What a lovely Christmas you had! I have to agree, the northwest is beautiful!

 

[PracPerfPatricia]

Ahhh...the Pacific Northwest...

Well you know how I feel about that...lovely...

(I have to make a list of places I want to go within the next 5 years...besides Disney...and within the boundaries of North America...and your neck of the woods is definitely on that list...)

I think your restaurant list looks really good...I like a blend of tried and true with some newbies...

hmm I was a bit behind and I noticed a drinking conversation mini thread about 9-10 pages back...have you made you made many of those...?

(your Christmas sounds lovely...

But that's a pretty cool idea.

Not sure about Lionel houses... but we want to set up some kind of village under the tree where the train goes - we need to get some add on track though or there won't be room for the houses.

Hot Dogs... We learned that trick in 2006 or 2007 when Alex was still on his gluten & dairy free diet but the airlines started restricting liquids. We just threw all his special food in a cooler with bags of frozen veggies & hot dogs! It worked out great - although our flights are only 3ish hours to Florida - I bet it takes you a bit longer than that.

Happpy New Year!!!

Universal, especially since you'll get those passes to skip the regular line, is a great place to adjust to the time zone change. The last time we went was in 2007. I'd like to go back to see the Harry Potter area, but it's so hard to take time away from Disney Plus, my nephews will be 6 and 2. I'm not sure they'll be much for them. Although, your ptr has made the idea of adding a couple of nights at a Universal hotel sound appealing.

You are lucky your boys are old enough to build their own stuff. My brother tells my nephew that I'm the builder and save the legos for me

How was Jeff's lasagna?

 

[eandesmom]

What a lovely Christmas you had! I have to agree, the northwest is beautiful!

On a sunny day, no prettier place in the world! It does make it hard to go to a warm place in the summer simply as the weather here is so lovely but August works!

We had some crazy wind last night and it was cold and rainy, glad we weren't on the road. Perfect for a fire at home.

Ahhh...the Pacific Northwest...

Well you know how I feel about that...lovely...

(I have to make a list of places I want to go within the next 5 years...besides Disney...and within the boundaries of North America...and your neck of the woods is definitely on that list...)

Um all of them?



Though I've been remiss and didn't post the irish coffee recipe. We are going to try Happydog's Lemon Fizzes for my sisters bridal shower along with the new cookie Evan inbented during our baking frenzy!

We have a list like that too, places to go in the next 5 years, both with and without the kids, DC, NYC, Hawaii and Germany with the kids...
Australia for us!

Of course I have my little birthday cruise in there which Jeff doesn't know about yet but that's ok!

You definitely need a visit out here...summer '11?

Not sure about Lionel houses... but we want to set up some kind of village under the tree where the train goes - we need to get some add on track though or there won't be room for the houses.

Hot Dogs... We learned that trick in 2006 or 2007 when Alex was still on his gluten & dairy free diet but the airlines started restricting liquids.

It worked out great - although our flights are only 3ish hours to Florida - I bet it takes you a bit longer than that.

5-5.5 hours. Long enough to read a couple books that's for sure.
probably too long for the hot dogs but you never know!

Conceptually I'd love the train around the tree but it wouldn't work with a snoopers! not to mention the village is very fragile.

Just checking in from my sick bed !!

Happy New Year to all!!!

oh no, sick bed?

feel better Rosie!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!

Happpy New Year!!!

How was Jeff's lasagna?

I haven't been to Universal since '04 and we only went to IOA. I think Kendall and I are the most into the HP stuff, the boys and Jeff just watched the latest one last night and complained about the "inactivity" in it.

Still, I think they will enjoy it quite a bit and I am going to do a marathon where we watch all the movies and get them caught up! We really enjoyed the one day at IOA and it should be a lot better this time with the boys being older, it was definitely not a "little" kid park though there was plenty to do, it was more for all the adults. I'm looking forward to it and think it will be perfect to make the time switch without feeling the pressure of HAVING to hit the parks right away when people would rather sleep. Our last flights couldn't have been worse for that, we landed at 10:30, got to the fort by 11:30 and still needed to eat dinner! Of course that was only 8:30 our time so it worked but then getting everyone to sleep and then up in the morning....bleh. And it set the stage for the whole week.

Red eye, as painful as it will be (since Eric will likely not sleep) should do the trick we hope!

We didn't have the lasagna, it ended up just the 4 of us and neither of us felt like cooking! UP, a fire and pizza was PERFECT! Making my chili today though

Can't beat summers up in the Pacific Northwest.....

[Sleepingbooty]

first off...

Happy New Year!!​

First up, a little Christmas recap and some pics.

First of all, yes, the E’s DID get to visit Santa.

OMG - Santas's shirt and socks are hilarious! Was this casual Friday at the North Pole?

Apparently Evan asked Santa for 2 things that he said would prove to him that Santa was real. Fablehaven (which I’d bought MONTHS ago and didn’t even know he still wanted)....

What is Fablehaven? The name intrigues me...

Other than one E being up FAR too early it was a relatively lazy morning, the E’s even got to break in both of their Santa Wii gifts (TSM and Mario) before we headed to my sisters for brunch, which is unheard of.

We love Mario - been playing it all day today! It reminds me of the original.

We played Apples to Apples for I think almost 4 hours!

And of course, telling the kids about the trip and voting on our dining choices!

Roaring fires, lazy dinners, living in sweats.

Sounds wonderful! We LOVE Apples to Apples. We play the junior version with the girls all the time, its almost as much fun as the adult version

However it does mess up my days and I need input from you touring pro’s. I may be a planner but I really, historically, have NOT planned our park days beyond this park this day and eat dinner here......


I know I’m over thinking this. It is a lot easier when it’s one park per day instead of 3 different “events”, an AM park, midday break, and PM park!

HELP!

Recap…the dining choices are

1. Ohana
2. Sanaa
3. Tusker House
4. Teppan Edo
5. Tutto Italia
6. Big River Grille and Brewing Co.

I know what you mean about 1 park per day being easier to plan for. We have traditionally done just that. I look up on the Unofficial Guide's website what the best and worst days are for each park, then I plan our days accordingly. 1 day at AK, 1 day at MGM, 2 or 3 at MK, 2 or 3 at Epcot. After I have my park days decided on, I just plug in the restaurants accordingly. I know hopping gives you more flexibility, but it does seem more complicated to plan out.

Does the backside of the shirt say "I like farting too"

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Hey Jordan, fondue is still alive and well at CP's house, in fact they had it last night.
I wonder if you could show up next year on NYE and kill it dead in Atlanta?

 

[eandesmom]

Can't beat summers up in the Pacific Northwest.....

Well we did have a VERY bad week in August, we are not set up for 100+ so hopefully if that hits here again, it's while we are in FL where they have AC!



But it is the prettiest place in the world (I think!)

tHANKS !!!

Glad you seem to be past the worst of it!

Yeah, 1 park per day with the flexibility to hop if you want is easier, this 2 parks per day with pool in the middle is complicated! But I actually think it will work out well if I plan it right.

Your plan is exactly what we did last time, the trip before it was wake up and where do we feel like going?

LOL! Now we time it around EMH.

That Santa always dresses like that, I love it, I think it makes him look so mych jore real and approachable! He's got several shirts, the boys were betting which one he would wear.

We were playing the jr version, I don't have the adult one!

Fablehaven is a series of books

http://www.fablehaven.com/indexmain.html

But now that I think about it, it was Inkdeath he mentioned, not Fablehaven! Inkdeath is what I got him and that's what he asked Santa for.

Hey Jordan, fondue is still alive and well at CP's house, in fact they had it last night.
I wonder if you could show up next year on NYE and kill it dead in Atlanta?

Now we wouldn't want to wish that on Jackie!

LOL!

My brother complained about the exact same thing with the latest Harry Potter. He said it was too hormone-driven

Are you planning on making a lot of rope drops? We did in August and I don't plan on making quite as many. The only must for rope drop is DHS for TSM.

What are the dates for your trip? We'll be there 8/22-9/1.

UP is such a great movie. Chili sounds yummy. I cooked delivery

I LOVE cooking delivery!

We've NEVER made an AM rope drop, one would be nice lol! TSM is the top of the list of rope drops to try but I'd love to see rope drop at MK one day. We will see.

YAY you have dates! I didn't realize

Right now our dates are 8/12-8/22 (8/15-8/22 at Disney), if they change, it'll be somewhere between 7/19-8/22 but no later or earlier than that.

The chili didn't suck. It's my normal new years day menu!

 

[All7OfUs]

Did I miss something? How did you like UP???

I ordered sushi. Yum yum!

Our dates have changed three times. The final time was after getting the Save the Date for my cousin's wedding. When I called my mom, she said that Disney was not an excuse for missing a wedding

Do your kids go back to school Monday? I'm DREADING going back.

 

[eandesmom]

Did I miss something? How did you like UP???

LOVED it!

We watched MORE movies yesterday, I am about movied and lazied out!

Did you miss Jordan's noxious gas?



Winkers new side business? Oh wait, that's on her thread.

hmmn. I don't think so?

I ordered sushi. Yum yum!

Oh I sushi. Sadly Jeff does NOT feel the same.

Weddings will do that, darn them anyhow! Changing dates is a pain, I know our last trip changed 3 times too. This is only once so far and that was almost immediately (it was during your final dates!) but we will see.

K is SO excited for my sisters wedding in June, it will be her first wedding that she can really remember and she is ready to look at dresses and shoes NOW!

She has an optional vball tourney that weekend and while we are reminding Kelli that she can't miss the wedding, Jeff brought it up to her and she said NO WAY and I missing the wedding. So that's good!

Yep, the kids go back Monday. I'm ready! But glad I still have the weekend.

Miss it?? No.
