Laurie,

Just a quick note. Scotty's second biopsy result came back. He is CANCER FREE!!!

 

[nicholaseck]

Oh my goodness. I so excited.

 

[DizNee Luver]

WOW!! That IS a very productive day! So exciting!

Very exciting day......we did our federal tax returns early, but got an email saying they wouldn't even begin processing them until the 30th......the direct deposit went in Saturday!!!! I didn't realize that until this morning!!

Laurie,

That sounds like an AMAZING agenda!! and congrats about PPH club level! Everytime I am scoping out prices, they are outrageous, but some day we will stay on-site, hopefully club level- DH and like an evening tipple, so it would be a good thing for us Save us some dollars right!

The prices are high......but since Nick & Marie weren't able to join us on the family trip in December....I felt I wanted to treat them this trip. Adding the concierge wasn't much more than paying for the view.....so I decided to go ahead and do that......free drinks & snacks all day and free breakfast if we take advantage of that. They also do a "happy hour" every evening...since we're all adults, we might take advantage of that too!!

Yeah subbing in. Another report!! WOOT! I always love following along on yours because you make them so detailed and make me feel like I am there with you!! Plus it keeps the magic going esp this time since after THIS trip we won't be going back till probably fall. No summer trip for us this year as we are hoping to do something else.

Mom and I aren't leaving till Monday either. Maybe we can meet up for a coke or something sometime on Sunday or at least to say hi. And we will probably just miss you on Monday. I think our flight LEAVES at 10 LOL. Crazy.

Getting excited myself. Haven't been on the trip since 10 eventhough I know we were "there" last year but of course I didn't participate so glad to be back in doing stuff and also spending time with the ladies. Getting excited as well!!!

Well I will give you OUR itinerary LOL.

We fly in on Thurs morning at 9ish. We are then going to go and get all checked in at the hotel (were staying at Desert Inn) then we will probably wander over to the parks because I want to get a wristband for the afterhours deal. Then we are going to meet the gals at Earl of Sandwich and then probably (if we have any time) spend some time with Shane and the girls before the meet and greet. I AM doing that of course as I think you know.

Then Friday we are doing the group pics and the scavy hunt and we will probably eat at the wharf and then for whatever little time we have between the end of scavy and dinner we will probably just be in the park possibly with the girls. But then we are doing the carthay circle dinner and then after mom will prob go back to the room and I may meet back up with the girls. Sat we are doing EE at DCA then depending on what time we have to meet for the cheer thing I am going to try and do the princess pic and the small world ride and then I will be at DCA the rest of the day. AFTER the cheer I plan on spending whatever time left with the girls.

Sunday we are doing a character breakfast with the girls at the plaza and then they are leaving. Mom wanted to do Catal for dinner that night but we have NO plans after shane and them leave. So anyway if it works and we see you great but if not I understand as I know you guys have plans. Looking forward to seeing you when I can though!!

Ok, well I guess for now, we'll just play it by ear. I'm sure we'll run into each other plus the Diva things!!!

 

[DizNee Luver]

One small change on the itinerary......we're doing dinner earlier at the Rainforest Cafe on the 27th. We decided to go earlier, so we could shop after in their gift shop but then be back at the hotel in time to watch the World of Color from our room!!!

Picked up Disney Gift Cards yesterday to cover the Disney meals, snacks & souvenirs and transfered money to my savings account to cover all the other meals, motel in Portland & taxi to & from the airport....plus incidentals. So I think we're set!!! Prepaid everything that I could!!!
