Magicians & Jugglers & a Clown Slide, OH MY! We're going to the BWI... A Nov 2010 PTR

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Count me in! You will love the BWI, we stayed there before and really enjoyed it.

We will overlap a bit, we arrive on Nov 12-21...look for us if you will be in Epcot on the 13 and 14...we are going to pack in as much F&W as we can since it will be the last weekend.

This time DH got to pick the resort so back to the CBR it is, he just loves that place...might have something to do with the tropical themeing, he loves the Bahamas so this is the next best thing ha ha. Even though the resort is huge at that time of the year things are pretty quiet so it should not be too bad.

The next 2 months will fly by....at least I hope so!

Hey Nicki!

We are so excited about staying at the BWI!! But we do also look forward to going back to CBR sometime soon too. I understand where your DH is coming from -- we really love that tropical theming there!

I wonder if it will remain our favorite or if the BWI will be the new favorite?!

Wow our trips are overlapping again! I remember when they did back in January 2009 when you took your nieces. We probably walked right past each other 20 times that one day at DHS and didn't even know it.

We will likely be at Epcot on those days! We plan on being there a lot since we love it so much and are staying within walking distance!

We probably did pass each other a bunch of time, I was probably looking haggard from those girls dragging me all over creation ha ha!

Love the pins you have for the boys...my youngest niece dropped that for a stuffed animal obsession, my backseat was filled with those critters! Almost 2 years later she still has them all and they are on shelves in her room so it was well worth it!

So have you changed your dining plans a million times or are you pretty much set on what you are going to do? Will you go to the MVMCP too? I was thinking about it but would rather spend the $$ on something else. Cannot wait to see the Osborne Lights, I like that better than the Xmas party

I wish my DD was still into pin trading.... she's into collecting Vinylmation's now.... ugh talk about expensive... each one is at least 10..... ugh....

8 WEEKS!!




And. . . .







My ebay pins came in the mail already!!



Here they are in their little bags ~

And after we took them out ~

And after the boys split them up. . .

DS11 ~

DS8 ~

They were so excited!!! I think we got some traders and some keepers in there.



Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

The pins are so cute!! That was a great idea to order them off of EBay.

Yay for 8 weeks! I can't believe how close it is. Time flies!

Hooray for 8 weeks and pins! We received the Mickey peace sign and Roo as well! Those must be popular pins. Madison decided to keep both of them (she collects those little Cutie ones like Roo).

I think I am going to try to get on Ebay tonight and find some for the kids!! I have 3 kids, so I need to find a set that will be enough to split 3 ways!! Or maybe just find 3 smallish sets...hmm...will have to see what they have right now!!! I won't tell them till they come in the mail!! I think we need new lanyards too--ours are getting ugly!!!! LOL

 

[danceintherain]

WELCOME!!
Apparently no hairstyle is the new hairstyle.

My only major problem is the fluffy sideburns. He looks like a wolf boy! I'm a bit disappointed with my parents. They didn't let my other brothers get away with it until they were much older. I suppose they probably just gave up, since he's their baby and all.

I want to do growing up at Disney pics. I'm thinking I'll pick a few places, or one place at each park for future security. I know one of the complaints people have about Toontown being replaced is that it was the location for their growth pictures.

 

[JoBird]

Awesome new pins! Were the boys so excited? What a nice Mommy you are!

We probably didn't see each other that week because we were all bundled up in our coats!! Remember how chilly it was for a few days?

Oh I hate stuffed animals! I am slowly trying to weed them out, but there are some that the kids still won't give up!

I have changed my ADR's some. Well, not really changed. Added. As it stands I have at least 3 I still need to cancel. I just can't decide which plan I am going with!

We have gone back and forth on MVMCP. In the end I opted to add a day to our trip instead of buying the party tickets. Hope I made the right choice!

The OL are awesome!! Can't wait to see them again!

Sounds like an expensive hobby!

Yeah, I sure got a great deal on Ebay. I figured out that I paid like 73 cents each!!

8 weeks and pins - it was a good weekend!!

DS11 definitely wants to keep the peace sign pin!

Did you find any???

I think I saw 'lots of 30' for sale. That would work for you!

Have you decided when the baby's first trip is going to be?

Awesome new pins! Were the boys so excited? What a nice Mommy you are!

Thanks JO! Yep, they sure were excited!!

DH brought the mail in yesterday and said - you have a little package here from FL. (he didn't know I ordered the pins) So we opened it up and looked at the pins before we showed the boys. I told him I bet I can tell you which kid will pick which pins. And I was exactly right!

 

[Pakey]

After seeing the pics, I could not pin trade. Some of those are really cute. I'd be trying to figure out a way to keep all of them plus get new ones. Hmmm.

And is it okay to say I'm now 27 days from the Beach Club. Reading your pre-trip is getting me excited for my own trip.

 

[laracroft]

On board for you fantastic trip report!

 

[danceintherain]

Have you decided when the baby's first trip is going to be?

We're waiting to find out if Logan will still be here in November. If he will, then there's a pretty good chance I'll be able to convince him to go for my birthday. I'm looking at November 1-6. If not...it will probably be for my birthday when we/he gets back from Korea, so 2011 if we never get to go with him or 2012 if we do.
I will be tempted to take him while Logan's gone, but I'll control myself as much as possible. I don't think it would be as fun without him anyways.

 

[JoBird]

Girl, where are you today????

 

[Monny2AE]

Uh oh did she called in to sub ALREADY!!! Given my son's week last week I wouldn't blame a teacher for calling out sick already.

Love the pins! I think I might introduce my kids pin trading for our next trip. eBay seems like a great way to get started.

I know, pin trading is hard. Do you keep them or do you trade?

YAY for 27 days!! I didn't realize you were so close!

On board for you fantastic trip report!

Lara! So glad you joined us!

I hope you are able to go in November!

I don't think I'd take a baby by myself. It would be fun, but a lot of work!

Yep, got the call at 6am. 'Can you work all day every day this week?' Wasn't expecting that one.

So the updates may be few and far between this week. I may try to do one later tonight. We'll see. . .


Your kids would have a blast with the pin trading. Definitely get started on ebay. I wish I would have. It would have saved me a bunch of money!

 

[JoBird]

Yay you're here!

I found this pin set today and thought about you- don't know if the boys like UP! or not, but MC and Drew loved these when I showed them-

If we were going soon, I'd buy them.

What??? Do they know you have a PTR going and loyal followers who expect timely updates? I'm going to be honest, I'm not happy about this little bombshell.

Oh well, you know the saying, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder."

I guess we'll have to be patient.

But yay for more Disney money!

 

[cyndiloveswalt]

Your pins look great. I guess you'll have a crazy week, I probably will too (and now as my DS12 is feeling better, my DS6 is getting sick, he was home today)
