Making Madicial Family Memories Together, Celebrating our 35th anniversary!

[newtodis]

Hey Grace!

Just checking in to say hello! I see you've already made a couple of changes to your ADRs. It happens to the best of us! I juggle mine until we're there I think and even then still make changes!

Glad DSIL's job will help them out financially and possibly enlarge your family a little bit! That's wonderful news!

How's everything else going?? Well I hope! Looking forward to Friday. Another week down and closer to Disney right???

My sisters ADRs went pretty well. I gave her the times and she called them in. She got the first three o.k., and then it went south. The bad thing is, I forgot to make an alternate schedule for most of the restaraunts. She worked it out, and I just had to make some park rearrangements. No biggie.
I am so excited for her. I just hope that she has a good time. I don't want to plan her whole trip, but I know how important it is to go with some sort of a plan.
Glad your SIL got a new job, and planning a new addition is fun too.

Hi Rosie
Just To made it clear THERE IS NO LITTLE ONE YET As they sayNO BUN in The Oven .
Do you like TGM? I have though about it and wonder if it worth the money? I don't know about Steve Soares, please tell more

YES WE HAVE TO PLAN TO MEET< I'm SOOO looking forward to meeting you And Yes with staying at the same place it will make it easier,
maybe we can meet and have a cool drink
GOOD IDEA To exchange cell phone #
Just thinking
In all your all you trips to WDW, DO you have one thing that is you favorite thing to do ?
Maybe we could do that together.

Grace

No I understood no Bun in the oven but the fire must be lit

I buy the UNoficial guide book every year or so !! If you hav the current year you can get all the info by filing in words from certain pages !! I subed to TGM this year but basically I know most of what they all say !! GET TO THE PARK AT ROPE DROP!!!!! Use FP etc

As for my favorite things !!! Soarin, TSM, Spectro would be the top3 !! We are going to Spectro our first night !! DD is not totally thrilled but knows I know what I'm doing !! She likes to go to PH and DTD on the first night !! I explained how seldom Spectro and Fantasmic are on so we had to fit them in when we could !! So she's ok with it !!

Good evening friends,

I'm been working on the autograph pages for our books, i also doing for for my friends son wgo is going to WDW for his honeymoon.

I finially decided on the disign for our anniversary t-sheet, one thing to cross out my list


It will say 35 years of magic, I also ask for one that says Mom and DaD, for Corri and one that says Poppa and Gramma for Landen. This design was made by kellybell.
I'm also think of getting a disign i saw with a train and the Fab 5, to wear on our arrival day, Landen loves train. maybe it will help us get some pixie dust at check in.

Still thinking about our Nacoseees's Adr it at 7:35 p.m. on a MNSSHP nite. I not sure when Hallowishes is can't seem to find the anwser
I wondering if its at 10:00 if we should try for a later ADR

Have a good night, and a better tommorow.

Hey Grace!

The DISign is adorable! Good luck with the shirt making part. It's honestly not that bad.

As for the fireworks for the party....I think they're about 9ish. I'm sure the DIS will have a schedule as soon as one's available this year. Last year it was at 9:30 according to this info: http://www.wdwinfo.com/holidays/photos/mnsshp-map2.htm I'm guessing it would be about the same time but that's just a guess on my part.

Hope you have an awesome weekend! Can't wait to hear about the trip to the zoo!

I love the DISign. Kellybell has finished it and put it in her 4 shared account. when I get some more time I'll try to post it here.

Your right. I called about my ADR at Narcoosee's and the CM said 9:30 .
I was able to change it to 7:45 , he said just to keep calling to see if I could get closer to 8:00. I also changed our ADR at Sci-fI to 1:30 so we could see the parade. So lets see this makes the 3rd and 4th changesbut who's counting

The trip to the Zoo was lots of fun, we hope we can go again, we have a zoo pass that get us into some zoo free and others at 1/2 off.
The zoo has a baby elephant. and the aquraium (sp?) was nice, we saw a driver feeding the fish.
Going to Kennywood ammusement park tommorow. to see how Landen does with rides, it will be me. Corri, Kylie and Josh. Landen has never been to a ammusement park,only rides at fairs or zoo. Will be intersenting to see how he does.
And will see how Gramma does too. Yesterday I fell at my BEst friend son wedding so I limping around, don't think I broke my foot,but it turning black and blue, if it not better in coulple of days I'm go see the Dr.
The Disneymoon autogrphs book I made for the happy couple came out great, I really proud of it. when I get the pictures on my computer, I'll post some here. The couples is staying at Carbibiean Beach resort in A pirate room.
Have a good monday everyone
Grace

 

[englishrose47]

Hi Grace we both need a bump up !! Boards have been slow though!!

 

[Grace and Mickey]

Happy July 1st
In 71 days this is what I will be Seeing

I can't believe I getting a change to go see Mickey and the castle again.

Some updates
Our trip to Kennywood was FUN, it a very nice park. It remind me of the Old Euclid Beach park we use to have here in Cleveland OH.
Landen was very good, he listen well and rode in his stroller great, he doesn't like to ride in the stoller or cart when we go to stores here at home. Not sure about rides through, he liked the rides that just went round and roound, wanted to sit on Corri lap if and adult was aloud to ride, guess we will have to take it slow with rides. Do you think he could sit on Corri lap or rides at WDW, like Dumbo. or Priate's?
My foot is very black and blue and I have To wrap whenI'm standing or walking, it dosen't hunt as much as it did, although I'm still limping.

Here's a SURPRISE
I made another ADR Change

Hi Grace,
We will be going to storm the castle on the 12th - 22nd of Sept. I see your from Ohio, we're from just outside Cleveland to the East. I see you and Rosie are meeting on the 12th. I've talked to Rosie on the Sept code watch a while back haven't seen her there in a while did come across her PTR here. We are getting in on the 12th at about 2:30ish and maybe if we can get moving we'll be able to see you guys there. I was suprised at how few times some of the big finishes are going on now.

[labsrus1]

Hi Grace,
We are staying at CSR this time, we've stayed at POP, all-star sports and at the French Qtr. We did get a airfare of $158.00 RT and non stop from Cleveland so we are flying. Our dinners are 9-13 Moma Melsore 9-14 Panet Hollywood 9-15 Rose and Crown 9-16 Raglin Road 9-17 Tony's town Sq. from here on I've been changing A LOT to try and find the right mix for us. I've got the LeCellier 2x and the Liberty Tree and Raglin Road again. I took the 1st I could get so now I'm trying to get them in the order I want at better times .

POP is a nice resort, we prefer less kids so thats why we didn't go back there again. It can get busy trying to get back after park closing, but thats at all of them, you may wait a little longer but as long as you not rushing you'll be fine. Try to do the things that are on a limited schedule 1st we missed the Nemo hand puppet show at AK last time, we went the last day we were there and it was closed for the day . Your grandson will have a blast there, everybody at every age gets something different out of Disney.

Chuck

 

[englishrose47]

Hi GraceIam doin really well with not changing my adrs !!But pretty much got what I wanted first time !! Still have to change the #'on CP one and that's it !!

Chuck Hi again!!

 

[labsrus1]

Hi Grace,
Hopefully we'll be able to meet with you and Rose in the kingdom on the 12th. It will be just my wife and me, still trying to change 1 last ADR but can't get where we want yet.

Hope all is going well with you, under 70 days it will be here before we know it, I hope. We have all our sample sizes ready to go, that way we can leave it there when we go. We'll take light rain proof jackets with us when we go,you know it WILL rain. Can't believe the summer has been so crappy here so far. June was more like Oct here rain and cool all month, but the cool lake didn't help with the temp. Now in the fall the lake will get warmer and we'll get a whole bunch of lake effect snow in the fall. Take care and we'll chat later.

Chuck

 

[englishrose47]

Hi Rose,
What I do is put them in the siutcase as I'm packing my stuff so my packed clothes smell good at the start and then just take then down to the laundry and use them in the dryer. One sheet 2 uses.

Sorry Grace didn't mean to use your PTR for talking to Rosie. Yes the sample sizes are a real treat, just enough for the trip and them its into the trash with them.
