MAY 12th-19th!! THESE ARE THE MAYS OF OUR LIVES! III

[rusafee1183]

I would for sure live in Frontierland!!!!! I would go on adventures on Tom Sawyer Island, and take crazy mountain rides. It's definately my favorite "land" at MK! I love it!!!!

Eat Turkey Legs right off the bone! LOL - I haven't ever tried one. I'm not so sure about that last one actually.... hmmm......

 

[rusafee1183]

So, I am going to book my flights on Monday! We definately decided on May
8-17th

I was looking at AirTran's website today and they have flights available through May 13th. So, I am going to come back in a few days and get them -it's $422 roundtrip, non-stop!!! I just hope that they don't change my flights too drastically like they did to Shelly....

I just want to get them at this price and then if they change them later, then I can deal with it then....

Good morning!

Congrats RF on your upcoming trip! Jo - glad to hear that your mom is in good hands. How is your packing going?

Hi Shelly, Mari, NC, Brrt, KB and Sulley!

Anyone hear from Huggie lately?

Sea

 

[rusafee1183]

Hey Sea! Thanks for the hotel info yesterday. Turns out that the link that you sent me was the same place that she was looking into a few months ago and couldn't remember the name So, she is super excited and is going to call them sometime this week for availability.

afternoon, mighty MAYers!

So I'm sitting here, listening to Subsonic- and guess what comes on??? Adventureland music!!!!!! Yay me.


<---- He's dancing in time with the music.

 

[JoBird]

Woo hoo- look at him go!!!!

Jo

 

[JoBird]

NC-
I don't think I ever told you what section we are in-
we're in with the other rejects in nosebleed 517.

Sounds like you're going to have a fab morning---
we plan on get up at the crack of early and arriving around 8am.
We are meeting up with some friends and tailgating with them, starting at 9:30 but we wanted to try to get there early and walk around a bit a try to catch a glimpse of the great one- --- before we start.
I'm baking Cinnamon Streusel Blueberry muffins and homemade cinnamon buns along with taking a fruit and cheese platter and we have an inverter for the coffee pot.

Yee-haw- I am so excited. It has been 10 years(!!!!!!) since we went to a Gator game! I was pregnant with Drew during the last one and we drove down for homecoming to Gainesville and went to Gator Growl. I was only about 3 months Pg with him and the stadium is so so so so so loud- that he started moving all over my stomach. It was the first time we felt him move. Dh immediately said- "Aww- that's my boy- he's gonna be the quarterback one day."

Can't wait!!!!!!!!!!

JO - I am sooooo jealous that you are going to be at WDW and CBR this month!!!!!

I wish we were still MAYer neighbors, then I would have you pick me up a 2009 WDW calendar!! WDW merchandise wants an arm & leg to ship the dang thing! I'll probably end up getting one on Ebay again like I did last year. I'll still be getting ripped off, but still cheaper than buying it from WDW and having them ship it!

Okay, so I made like 100 Mickey-head cookies today for DS's birthday tomorrow! And now I am working on the ice cream cake!

 

[seacrestpromo]

Shelly - That is a bummer about Philharmagic. Our family LOVED it! I think we saw the show 3 times on the last day.

If I had choice to live at WDW? Tomorrowland, specifically on the PeopleMovers!
I really miss them at DLR.

Jo - Dole Whips are heaven on earth!

Sea

 

[JoBird]

Shelly- I am to thrilled over being there in 21 days! OMG! 21days!!!!! I'm looking forward to CBR. Can't wait, actually. I don't mind picking a calendar up and sending it to ya once we get back--- you'll have to let me know which one you want, if you want me to.

Also- if anyone needs postcards sent- let me know. Just PM me the addy.


Sea- Dole whips are I like the floats 100 times more- esp when I am standing in Adventureland, sweat dripping off my brow from standing in line for an hour and I'm drinking it in.

Ohhhhhh- the People mover, aka TTA- it will always be the People Mover to us! Love to go on it at night- when it's just getting twilight and Tomorrowland is just starting to sparkle. So pretty!

OMGosh.

I am so excited!

FYI---
for those coffee lovers out there-
I had my first Starbucks Peppermint White Mocha of the Holiday Season yesterday. I couldn't wait any more. It was October!!!! Yep- I'm one of "those" people- I start listening to Christmas music Nov 1st. AND- I just put Harvest Spice into all my Air Wick oil containers. Woo Hoo!

And as far as Heaven on earth- well, the Peppermint Mochas rank right on up there with Dole Whip Floats, as far as I'm concerned!

Yay!

Jo

Hi Everyone!

Shelly - Those cookies sound divine. Send some over here. I hope your DS has a great birthday.

RF - Congrats on buying your airfare on Monday!

Hi ya Sea!

KB- Don't ya just hate the ol' back to life, back to reality.

Mari - Please let us know if there is any more news on DSS. I would just be worried sick.

Lots going on here. I worked at the Race Space. There are over 38,000 women registered for the Little Rock Race with over 1 week to go.

Tonight we have a Jr. High football game. Exciting. Our Jr. High team is a only doing a little better than the Razorbacks team. Tough times.

Tomorrow, I am getting my hair highlighted. That always makes me feel good!

Jo - We sit in 504 which is across the field from you guys. We are on the 50 and for early afternoon or evening games, we are in the shade. Last game, we forgot to put sunscreen on my dd and she got a burn on her sweet face and neck. I just thought I would mention it. The weather was awesome, but I just didn't think about sunscreen. Are your kids going or just you and Mark? I am sure the game will be more fun for FL fans than for the Razorback Nation.

After highlights, we are heading to Hog country!

Have a great day Mayers!

Hey all....sorry i didn't check in.... I will not go on a vacation again without my DH, DD.... i got home and the house seemed as if a hurricane hit it. It was crazy. so between cleaning and washing cloths (which by the way i'm not finished with) i had no time for anything. And to think i only left 3 days.

Jo -I'm glad to hear that your mom is ok. And I am also jealous that you will be in CBR and WDW the end of this month.

RF - Congrats on your trip... we were planning on going May 10 - 17... well you never know.....

I was thinking about going to the celebration thing tommorow morning. It is in NYC it's only about 30 min away so we'll see what happens.... I hate that it only says times square... that is kind of big... if i go i'll take pics and post them....

 

[Katiebell]

Hi, I am soooooooooo tired, but wanted to pop in and say hi...

Made homemade chili tonight for dinner and posted a couple of more installments on the trip report...

If I was going to live at WDW, my first choice would be the Cinderella Suite in the castle, of course But if that's not available, then I'm gonna live with Minnie Mouse in Toontown -- I just love her house.

 

[rusafee1183]

Morning!

KB - Minnie's house is the cutest! I love the grocery list haha Swiss cheese, American cheese, Mozarella cheese, Cream cheese, Cottage cheese.... etc... LOL I think it's the cutest!....Or is that at Mickey's house....

Anyways....

I am sooo excited to plan my trip! I can't wait to book airfare Monday

Jo- How much packing do you have left?

And don't worry - I feel the same way about christmas time! I start listening to christmas music in November and I don't stop until after New Years! Except at Starbucks I wait all year for the Pumpkin Spice Latte - mmmmmm...... I wish it was all year! I never even walk into a starbucks until the fall every year.

Alright - gotta go to work! Have a great day!

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Hello MAYers! My baby turns 7 today. He was pretty excited and hyper this morning!! Can't wait to see him after I take the class sugar cookies!

 

[rusafee1183]

Congrats Shelly! I can't see the picture, but I am sure they look great

Awwww, your baby's growing up

 

[rusafee1183]

Shelly - Did you guys hear about this?

http://www.imaginepittsburgh.com/ (go to the "birthday blowout" part and look at the schedule of events)

There is all kinds of events going on Point Park and there is going to be fireworks tomorrow night. We may go - depending on how much we get done tomorrow afternoon

 

[seacrestpromo]

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Thanks for the birthday wishes for DS!! I just left 20 first graders on a sugar high!!

RF - No, I didn't know about all that going on in the city this weekend. Looks very neat!

Okay, well I finally just went ahead and did it!! I booked 1 night away for DH and I for next month. We decided on Seven Springs Resort. It's almost 2 hours from here. http://www.7springs.com/

Thanks for the Nemacolin info JO. It looks very nice, but they have a 2 night minimum on the weekends.

Are you really going to check that much luggage JO??? Holy cow, good thing you went with CBR for the slightly larger rooms for all of your clothes!!

Hope everyone is having a great Friday!
