Official December 2008

We leave on Saturday night and will probably drive through the night. I can't believe it's so close already. I'm so excited I can't hardly stand it!

I haven't started packing yet. I know the weather can be all over the place and I'm dreading trying to pack. I've never had to pack this way. The year DH and I went in February I guess we got lucky because I didn't know any better and packed us shorts and stuff for the whole week and we had beautiful weather all week.
 
11 more days! :banana: the weather forecasts and crowd estimations are looking good for us. i think it is time to start packing. :thumbsup2
 
12 more days and I can hardly wait. I have already started packing things i won't need bvefore the trip, and since it takes me longer, since I have to help everyone else, I better get started. Last Dec I forget to pack some of my clothes, as I was helping DH, and luckily I didn't really need them, we will be gone so long this time, I don't want to forget a thing. I don't want to do laundry while I am on vacation.

Anxiety attack right now! :scared: This will be about trip #19 (leave in 5 days). Have been at holidays a few times. Will be 4th stay at BCV.

Why am I freaking out?! I just realized I had the wrong park hours for MK on my schedule - including times for Wishes! Change plans? Don't change? Would that mean TRYING to change ADRs? And oh - the weather! Tried to start packing last night and gave up. We're there for 7 days and I have 8 Ts and 7 sweatshirts laid out! :confused3 :sad2: The scary part is ALL of those (& a many others) are ALL Disney logo-ed clothes! :rotfl2:

Now I'm racing around the web looking for Castle lighting times, Beauty & the Beast show times, Visa photo times, etc.!

I need top just stop and remember "My worst day at Disney is still better than my best day anywhere else!" :cool1:

Thanks for letting me get that off my chest! :hug:

, I better get started. Last Dec I forget to pak all of my clothes, as I was helping DH,Suzanne
Glad to know I am not the only one who has done this.
a few years ago we drove to WDW. Halfway there we stopped at a hotel for the night. Getting everyone's clothes ready for the next day I realized I didnt pack myself ANYTHING. I had to go out to a local walmart and get a few things and then at Disney went clothes shopping!!
Unnecessary expense and when we got home a week later all my clothes were neatly folded on the dressing table. :lmao:
 
It's been snowing like crazy here all day. :eek: I just keep telling myself, "Two more weeks and I'll be at Disney!" :dance3: It seems to do the trick!! :cool1:

I guess I didn't state that correctly. I did take most of my clothes, I just forgot a few shirts, but I managed. I usually over pack, but I was trying to help DH and my mom. Glad I didn't forget everything, because of my size, I couldn't just go anywhere and buy clothes, I would be SOL. Glad to know I am not the only one who does these things :lmao:

10 more days!!!! :scared1: :woohoo: :banana: :cool1: :cheer2:



*Ticker is wrong as we had to change our travel days after this semester started, darn nursing final! I take the final Thursday morning and then leave there to head straight to the airport!!!!
 
All the Christmas presents are bought--I am going to start wrapping tonite. I have a laundry baket that I am starting to place our "summer" wardrobe in and will get the winter stuff in there this weekend. I will be keeping an eye on that accuweather forcast! We leave on the morning of the 14th and I am just so excited! I still have to figure out how to work my new camera and I think that should cover everything! Can't wait to get there:santa: :cheer2: :santa:
 

Thank you! Yes, we plan on getting the pins.

Now I'm stressing over the crowds. Will it be packed next week?

I don't think it will be "packed".I would guess the crowds will be in the moderate range.I think most schools will still be in session.:) You may run into some of the Pop Warner group at night,but during the day,they will mostly be in competition at Wide World of Sports.:)
 
Wohooooooooo!!!!! Our documents arrived today!!!!!!! Yahoooooooo!!!!!! Disneyworld here we come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:dance3: :yay: :banana: :cool1: :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :jumping1: party: :rainbow: :tinker:
 
:sad1: We were leaving in morning. My sil had a stroke on Sunday does not look good. Can't leave. Thank God my kids had no idea about the trip. Need good thoughts for my sil.


Leaving in excatly 48 hours!!!! Whooo hooo! Now lets just hope my little ones don't get the big ones virus! Keeping fingers crossed. 2 year old twins both with 103 temps in Disney will be a nightmare!!!!
 
The tree is up and not decorated
The plane leaves this Friday and the bag is not packed......

No worries.....I will be there on FRIDAY!!!
 
New poster here!

We drive down on December 17th and will be there until the 21st!

We'll be going to MVMC on the 18th.

Anyone think we might have some luck with people canceling their ADRs? I tried making ADRS last week, with no luck. In 2005 we're were able to get a table at Crystal Palace by checking with the restaurant and did the same thing in 2001 at Liberty Tavern.

Love seeing all the enthusiasm!

I'm so sorry to hear about your sister in law. Sending her plenty of prayers and good thoughts for a speedy recovery.
