Hey Tammy! I'm sure you will have a wonderful time at your planning session.
This is my first trip report so it will probably be pretty short and uneventful. But I'll do my best!
Day 1 ~ Monday, Sept. 21, 2009
I was so anxious and my anxiety level was ridiculous. I don't normally freak out about flying but I was extremely nervous on this trip. I blame it on O'hare airport. I've only been there once and was coming back from a trip so I didn't have to find a gate or anything... just luggage claim. Anywho back to our TR. We checked in and gave them our luggage. As we were walking to security i started to really freak out and started tearing up. Mike calmed me down and I was ok. We got through security and off to our gate to wait.
on the airplane waiting to take off. Wahoo!
The flight was incredibly smooth. After we landed we found our way to the ME check in. The wait wasn't nearly as long as it was when we went in April 2008. We waited about 20minutes then we got on a bus. Off to All Star Music we go!
We walked in and get in line for the online check in people. A very nice young man, i think his name was Dave??, in a green shirt came up to us and asked our name. I tell him and he's like, 'follow me, please. we've been waiting for you' so we follow him and it turns out we were the ASmusic family of the day! We got balloons and special gold KTTW cards rather than the blue ones everyone else got. We also got our pic taken but never received it... It was fun. Apparently, Mike had called the week before b/c he wanted to do something for my bday. They said they'd take care of it. So that was a fun surprise.
Here is our pic with our sign and our balloons.
This was our first time staying at ASmusic and found it very nice. We had 2 towel animal things... of course Mickey.
And this candy looking one. We thought it was cute!
It took us a few trips to and from the buses/food court to find the shortest route. After we settled in somewhat we got on our way to Epcot for dinner at the Biergarten... yummy.
Mike by a fountain. It was nice back by our room, very quiet for an All Stars.
"I'll go get my ball..."
We had some time to spare before dinner so we rode a few rides. (Spaceship Earth was walk on, Oh and we got pics with Mickey and Pluto at the Disney Visa meet area, Test Track was a 5minute wait)
Me and a 2010 Camero at the end of Test Track... such a beautiful BEAUTIFUL car.
Dinner at the Biergarten was delicious as usual. This is always a must go to for us.
The band
This was cool. He played 'it's a small world' with the cowbells. I think that was my favorite part of the show.
These were cool too.
After dinner we just headed back to ASMusic. It had been a long day and we were planning on Illuminations for Thursday night. So yeah, That concludes day 1. not very exciting but it's something i suppose. Stay tuned for Day 2, my bday.

) I got to thinking. We currently do not really have a THEME (other than colors)and I want one. I like all of our details but am looking for a way to bring them together. Any suggestions? I'll re post all of our detail pics in a little bit, so you don't have to go back through the pj to see them all... All ideas are welcome!
) That is so cute you got to be a family of the day! What a great way to start your trip!
