Wow all that is great. I wish I had a travel agent like that. The time is getting very near yey

I can send you her info if you'd like it!! She's free and FULL of knowledge!!

 

[ladybugmom]

Becky! I'm so excited for you and the girls to go to Disney soon. And way to live it up at the Poly! Your travel agent has to be the coolest!

And I knew you did cute bows- but the CLIPS! I think I need 1-2 of those!!! I need to decide which princess though for Molly for the Disneyland trip.

XO- Robin/disnychck

Robin--my friend!! Yay! Sorry you had to search for this thread--should have known to post the link!! Glad you made it over!!

Becky, I will be following closely! As you can see, I am a longtime DIS member, although I don't check it very often anymore. This board is what started my internet addiction, LOL!

I know! Since '02! You have soooo many posts, I was wondering why I hadn't run into you on here!!

I'm sooooo excited!! Our Mickey Mail arrived today!!! Check it out (everything is in the folder--cute folder--huh? There were tiny stickers all in the packet--like confetti! That's what's on top of the folder)

And then inside the packet was this:

I just LOVE my travel agent!! This is what was included: hotel voucher, ME booklet and tags, luggage tags, How To Guide 2009, and then our travel agent's extras--laminated dining itinerary with confirmation #s, laminated charts on best times to do what in each park, insider tips for each park, fun things to look for and tips for each park, 2 Tinkerbell puzzles, Cinderella temporary tatoos, and a Sleeping Beauty velvet art coloring poster. I can't WAIT to read through everything!!!
Oh--and I also received some new ribbon and resins in the mail today that I found on Ebay!! I'm going to make the girls some hairbows for our trip!

19 days!!! Whoo hoo!!!

LOVE your TR!!! WOW, she goes all out!!!! How awesome for you and what a nice surprise to get in the mail!! You're on countdown now!!!!

I know! Since '02! You have soooo many posts, I was wondering why I hadn't run into you on here!!

I would say the majority or a good portion of my posts were from 2 threads on the Comm Board. The Official DIS Moms to Be thread, and then the New Moms thread that were running 2004-early 2007. A bunch of us ladies posted on there several times a day and that's how I really racked up the post count. One of those gals was my latest partner in crime at Disney- a few of us have cultivated and maintained friendships off the boards, but it all started with the DIS!

But, I've also learned a TON of tips and pointers from the DIS- it's priceless for Disney trips! And good information in general about sales, etc- the budget board is a good one for finding deals!

Anyhoo- good to see you on here!!! I love your countdown chain- I made a different sort of a countdown last year with the kids (and my Cricut machine), but I think I will copy your chain colors for our upcoming Disneyland trip!

Hi Kristen!! Thank you so much!! Yes, she DOES go all out! That's why I recommend her to everyone I know! Yes, 18 days and counting!! Whoo hoo!!

That makes sense! I was wondering how you racked up such a huge posting number! I love this board! I can spend HOURS on it at a time! Sure--copy away!! TTYS!

I just wanted to let you know that I'm reading, and enjoying hearing about your plans a lot! We are planning our first family trip for this September, so I'm soaking it all in like a sponge. Have a great trip!

I was wondering what kind of countdown you made with your Cricut. I have one and have been looking for ideas to use. Thanks!

Hi all!! Claire has been sick with an ear infection since Sunday and is finally back to her normal self today!! She's been running a pretty high fever (first time she's ever had a fever) and she's been really clingy. I'm so glad she's starting to feel better--poor thing!

I wanted to share something with ya'll that I came across the other day here on the DIS! It's a dining punch card so you can easily keep up with what ts, cs, and sn you've used!! You can either punch the card or mark it off as you use them!! Genius! Here's mine:

You can have your own made on this thread: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1723996

17 days!!! Whoo hooo!!!

 

[mom2mek]

That's a great idea! I'll have to remember that for when/if we ever use the dining plan! Cool!

Isn't it?! I was so excited when I came across it!!

I just went back and found your ADRs, etc. Wow! You scored with some great ADRs and times! What fun! I love the punch card idea too- that's cute. You will enjoy the dining plan- it's a lotta food!

We are going to WDW in November and I have (I think) our dining plans all mapped out already. Is that sort of sad, or what? It used to be that you had to have them mapped out 6 months ahead of time (which would be now), but now I gotta wait til August to wake up at 0400 and call. This will be my first time out of 8 or so trips that we're gonna try for the castle breakfast. We did the Norway dinner last summer and Molly loved it, but now she is asking about, 'How do we get in Cinderella's castle? I want to go IN it.' I haven't told her yet how you can eat with her in there, cause I don't want to disappoint her should I not get a ressie!

Well--I can't take the credit--my TA scored those ADR's for us!! I told her exactly what we wanted and she got it all!! Times and everything!! I didn't do a thing!

I would probably have everything mapped out, too!! I am a HUGE planner--so I can relate! Oooh--I bet Molly will LOVE Cincerella's castle-from what I can tell it looks soooo magical!! I hope you can get the ressie for her!!

I'm sorry to hear that Claire has been sick.

We ate dinner in the castle back in 2005- it IS pretty cool inside! Molly was just a baby then, so she doesn't remember it at all.

Sorry to hear that Claire has been sick. I'm glad that she is feeling better.

Your punch card is cute. I'm going to check that out in just a minute.

Thanks for sharing it with us.

Thank you! This is only the 2nd time she's been sick--so I'm very thankful for that. And she timed it perfectly--right?! She's getting it out of the way before our Disney trip!!

Thank you Leanne!! No problem--It was too cool not to share! There are some really neat things on the Creative Dis board!! And some very talented DISers!!
