Long time planner, first time visitor!

[Denovagirl]

Sorry to hear about all the sickness/hospitalizations but I'm glad everyone is ok!

Can't believe your trip is coming up so soon!

Thanks! 2 days

2 days! 2 days!!!!

 

[Denovagirl]

2 days! 2 days!!!!

I know!!! I'm freaking out!

 

[Denovagirl]

Okay...so is this a normal amount to pack for a 9 day vacation for 4 people?!?!??

Haha! They're not all jam packed but they are all packed! I know some stuff we won't be bringing back, so I hope it will leave me enough room for stuff we may buy...

I've pretty much finished all the packing except for a few things I need to get ready with. Now I am sitting here staring at this pile trying to decide if I should try going through it again to take stuff out- but not really sure what I could do without besides maybe a few articles of clothing which do not really take up too much space anyway. Arg!

I just cannot believe we need this much!! It's nearly a suitcase per day! But a lot is items for the parks, things like muscle rub, and of course little gifts and things also...hmm. What do y'all think?

I always have a suitcase and a backpack, DFi has literally the largest duffle bag on the planet. His clothes take up sooo much space if we used a smaller bag he would need 3. If you're not paying per bag I say don't worry about it at least you thought ahead to have souvenir space. I usually end up with a Disney parks bag as my carry on to come home stuffed with souvenirs. Lol.

I wouldn't worry about it. If you aren't paying per bag that is. This gives you room for souvenirs.

First, if I don't make it back over here before you leave, have an awesome trip! You guys are gonna have a fantastic time! I can't wait to see pictures of how your girls react when you get back!

I wouldn't worry about having that much stuff! Are you gonna have to pay for extra bags? If not, than it's better to have too much than not enough!

 

[babynala]

No worries. I would keep it all, extra clothes are good to have. Plus you always have more stuff when traveling with little ones.

Have a great first trip. Can't wait to read all about it.

We took 9 bags plus a carseat and stroller for 3 people for 8 days, so I would say thats about right!

Seriously as long as you are not paying for it , and you can get it to the baggage check point, I would not worry about it! I know you guys are going to have so much fun, its hard to believe it is finally here, isn't it?

Have a great trip and I can't wait for a trip report!

First - I just love those big gorgeous smiles - they are going to DISNEY WORLD!!!!!

Personally - I would leave it... I know you put a lot of thought and planning into your packing.

One more day!!! If I don't get back here before you leave - have a fantastic trip - send me a text and maybe we can meet up.

[Denovagirl]

The last PTR update! Eeeeeeeep!


So this is it! Tomorrow I officially start documenting my Trip Report! I feel like standing on my balcony and screaming "I'm going to Disney World" at the top of my lungs like I've just won the Super Bowl! Teehee....

Today I tried my best to keep busy. I cleaned my already clean house, I packed a couple more items and I painted toes!!!

Mickey toes! Mine and Olivia's are like this and Maddie's are just red because she's tiny and likes to squirm!

Basically I am just dreading this night now because I know I will more than likely hardly sleep and then the few hours tomorrow morning before we are off will be spent in agony watching the minutes roll by...but ya know what? That's all okay because by this time tomorrow I will be on Disney time at the AoA with my family!! It still doesn't feel real and I don't foresee it hitting me until I pull under that famous welcoming arch of Disney World itself.

I am so excited that I may pop! I plan to post a few live pics here for y'all, but not much because Ill be too busy enjoying myself and I want to save the goodness for my TR! If you're on Instagram you can follow me there, my name is Denovagirl. I know I'll be snapping some phone shots there! I hope you will all join me in my TR when I get back because this has been such a pleasure!

Nighty night! Sweet dreams- I know the little bits of sleep I will get tonight will be full of them!

[DMGeurts]

TODAY is our day!!!! YAY!!!! Safe travels to you!!!
