May-2008 Goers!!!!

[liftn]

K so I'm in single digits and so far all I've done NOTHING to prepare for my trip except buy my son some new tennis shoes. I've never been this unprepared before, I think going all of these years has brought on a false confidence that I can pull it together in a few days. Anyone else having this issue??

In Oklahoma do they call sneakers tennis shoes, or are the something different?

Hi everyone!

We're 'doing Disney' May 12th - 16th.

We're leaving MI on Saturday the 12th for the looooooonnnnng drive - renting a house offsite and going to the parks Mon - Fri.

We haven't been since 2004! Kids are now 15, 10, 7 & 3.

THIS IS MY FIRST TRIP NOT BEING PREGNANT!! I am riding the 'big' rides for the first time ever!

 

[WhenUwishUponAstar]

Well, look at my ticker!

Packing? What's that?? I did pull out my list from our last trip...does that count? I'm sure hoping all our clothes fit...

See you in May!

I said that to my dh today, "well, hope our clothes still fit!"

Um... or hmmm... i'm just about to turn 40 on my trip and i dont want to think about that!!.... Na just kidding, but i know what you mean, i have started getting my clothes ready, its just all the little things, that i still need to get.... i'm getting the suitcase out today and start doing some prepacking... maybe that will make me feel better!!

this made me laugh Happy Birthday in advance! Since I'll obviously miss it! LOL
I hope getting the suit case out made you feel better of course it did nothing to motivate me. My big trip planning task for today was complaining that i haven't done anything on my previous post!

In Oklahoma do they call sneakers tennis shoes, or are the something different?

um in Oklahoma they call them tennis shoes, sneakers, kicks and just about any other slang u can think of. I just usually say tennis shoes

awesome!

I've got 13 days to go and I'm actually starting to feel I'm not going to get it all done! I usually pull it together in a couple of days but I have a lot more to bring this trip and don't want to forget anything!

YEAAAAAAAAH i'm not alone!

I will be with my sis and her family in an All-Star Music Suite May 9--14. This is a last minute trip only booked because we found a great deal on airfare. My sister is so not a value resort girl, but I have read lots of great things about the ASMu, hopefully she will love it! It is so great to be going this year that I would be happy staying anywhere!

 

[marciemouse]

Officially less than two weeks until we return to WDW! Yay!

 

[swummyh20]

Aggghhhhh!!!

One more week and I am there!! Far too excited and I cannot wait to go. Which is odd cause I haven't even begun thinking about what I am going to pack, let alone When I am going to pack. I am just basking in the glory of only being a week away from my (and many others) happy place!!

 

[luvpoohbear]

I am right there with you!!! Two weeks to go for me, and I haven't even thought of those things either. I am just ready to be in my happy place!!!

Have a great trip!!!

 

[wdwgirl03]

Two weeks for me too!!! AHHHH!!!!

 

[LadyLuc361]

In 2 days I'll be in flight to Disney! I can't eblieve its finally here!!

I started packing last night. I have waaaayyy too much stuff right now. Tonight I am going to cut it back, and maybe cut it back again on Thursday night. I'm trying really hard not to over pack

 

[chrisw127]

Eight days! I can't wait!!!!!

Anyone going to the GF around May 9th?

 

[CheshireCat3]

11 days to Poly!

Anyone know about the crowds around this time? (May 11-17th?)

The crowds are supposed to be really good, I believe 5s and 6s on the crowd calendar.

(Later--just checked. The crowd calendar does say 5s and 6s. Doesn't really pick up until after you leave. Have fun!)

I can't believe it is 21 days to our first WDW family trip. I haven't been on the boards in a while. I was quite obsessed with them in my planning process, then I had to take a break. I started to get bubbly excited this week and decided to hop on again. I can't wait to see my kids' faces when we get there. I've been talking up the World to them and they seem excited, (although not as much as me), but I really don't think they know what they are in for. This is their first time there. Hubby and I have been there a couple of times before but never stayed on Disney property and we've never had a full experience of the theme parks. We'll be at Port Orleans Riverside. I know it will be a blast. I can't wait to be a kid again...(yes a 40ish year-old kid ) It's going to be GREAT!!!!

 

[momtwoboys]

I can't believe that tomorrow is MAY! We will be there May17-22 @ CR!!! We are getting close. I finally took out the suitcase today, guess I will start packing

Experiencing the same thing! First time I'm being a weird, lazy slob. We're leaving tomorrow afternoon and although I had laundry done and things set aside, I just really packed today. Probably won't finish until the morning....

I don't know what's gotten into me!!??!!

We leave in 20 days too! I am starting to panic that we won't get to see enough of the rides because of crowds etc. We are driving over 950 miles to get to our place at Windsor Hills.

 

[JoltedChicken]

Can't believe its so sooooonnnnnnn
