'My Very Merry Xmas in November' (checking stuff of the bucket list) WDW Trip. (closed)

[MataHari22]

Warning, this post is going to have a ton of photos, and may contain cuteness overload. Where to start...where to start.... Ok. I'll post chronologically.

First, fall is now in serious full swing. We've even had frost, actually. Pretty darn chilly, was in the 20's last night.

I love fall, but as soon as the leaves are off the trees, I'm done. I want to just hop right to spring from there. Wish I could be in Florida from right after fall, through late spring. Lol. Here are some pix I took last week, just on my iPhone.


And look what my step mom got! A new hairless Chinese Crested puppy! He's adorable, and my Nizzy hates his guts. Nizzy doesn't want anyone or anything near me. Lol. I got to puppy sit for a bit. His name is Julian, and he is so stinking cute!

A couple of more photos.




Had to post more of the puppy, and look what I got in the mail today! Yay.






I called my travel agent, I know our stuff should be ready soon, so I left a message to have her call me when it's ready. I would rather go pick it up than have her mail it. I think I have 23 days left?

It's so exciting when those Magic Bands arrive!

Oh my goodness what a cute puppy.

I remember when we got our current dog as a puppy, we had an older dog (RIP) Anyway, when we brought him home she went and hid in the walk-in closet for three days! She was so mad at us!

The mail was busy with Magic Band deliveries yesterday!! I love your Fall Pictures, Fall is definitely my favorite time of year. Growing up in South Florida we didn't have seasons except for Hurricane Season. We actually drove up to Boone, NC this past Sunday and the leaves were beautiful! Such a pretty ride.

I've started doing the same thing you mentioned, putting clothes we want to take on the trip to the side. This weekend I'm going to start working on the toiletry bag and getting that packed as much as possible. I don't think the DH will give me too much grief about packing the toiletry bag early...now if I dragged out the suitcase I might get some strange looks.

Been so busy this week! Plus I puppy sat three times this week. He is so cute, but omg, he is a little needle toothed terror! I am kind of happy that my hands are numb, in this case. But man, he got me on the belly, and he bit my toe a few times, got me on the boob once! Little maniac! Nizzy, is still not amused.

It's been about 55° here during the day. Had to drive a couple of places this week, and the foliage, is just gorgeous. The leaves have pretty much hit their peak now.

Lol. I dragged out the suitcase and I will start sticking more things in it. Shoes are in, except the pair I will wear, and I can put the shirts in.... Usually, I am pretty much fully packed by now. I think I'm dragging my feet this time, because I'm worried about November weather. I'm used to going in October and the weather was perfect. All my toiletries are packed.

Definitely getting excited and nervous and anxious now.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE FALL!!!!

I can't believe your trip is so close. I can't wait till we get our Magicbands even though it will be next year

Going to share this one because who knows if I will get another chance and it makes me think of that song we would sing in school :stirring and stirring my brew"

 

[ArwenMarie]

Your trip is getting so close now MataHari!!

Your trip is getting so close now MataHari!!

It's crazy, two weeks from today I'll be on my first park day, and in Hollywood Studios! Still have lots to do around he house before my trip and need to pack... It'll be here before I know it.

Your countdown is showing the 1 week mark

Your countdown is showing the 1 week mark

I know! I am really getting antsy now.

 

[deedee2177]

3 days!!!!! So exciting!!!!!

 

[deannaf87]

Oh my gosh, 3 days! I can't believe it's almost here!

 

[MataHari22]

Two days! Kinda freakin out a little. I could hardly sleep last night, and I sure know I won't get any sleep Wednesday into Thursday, because I will need to be at Linda's at about 4 am so we can drive to the airport. Gah!

Have a lot to do around the house yet to do before I leave. Want to make my gram a few things she can easily eat when I'm gone. Have laundry yet to do..... Blah, blah, blah! Wish I was just leaving right now.

I am glad that they added a second F! show on the night that I will be at HS. I was not sure I would be able to have enough time to get to do it with the one show. Now, I should be able to enjoy Osborne Lights and then Fantasmic!

They also made it an 8 am open on the day I'll be at AK, which will be nice. That will give me more time before my 10:30 ADR. Course that means I will have to be up super early that morning. That's killer for this night owl. I am going to come home and sleep for a week straight I'll be so exhausted.

 

[ArwenMarie]

I hope you have a great trip!!!!

I'm so excited for you. Say goodbye to the Osborne Lights for me!

 

[MataHari22]

I hope you have a great trip!!!!

I'm so excited for you. Say goodbye to the Osborne Lights for me!

I cannot believe I'm leaving in a few hours!!!!

Will finally get to see the lights, bittersweet, since it will be the first and last time.

I'm never going to get any sleep tonight, I know it! Too worked up.

 

[MataHari22]

Made it to the airport. Should be boarding the first plane soon!

 

[ArwenMarie]

Yay!!! I'm so excited for you!!!

 

[alrushton]

Sorry I didn't make it on here to say goodbye but I am sure you are having a fantastic time right now!!!!!!
