I can not wait for december but I definitly do not want to wish the summer away!
Im working on a ton of DIY gifts and pre travel packages for my young cousins! And Im soo excited. The DISigners on the forum are FABULOUS!!!!!!
Hows the planning going for everyone?!
I'm solo too for similar dates (12-18) and so are a lot of other folks! Come join us on the December Meet thread:I'll be down December 12-17th! As of right now, I'll be traveling SOLO and probably staying at Pop Century. I'd love to meet some of you down there.![]()
4 Canadian newbies, all super excited to be going to WDW for the FIRST TIME!!!!!
December 8 - 18... (and the monsters get off school to boot, woohoo)

I've been thinking about a Sleigh Ride. Is it worth a trip to FW just for that? We always take a horse drawn carriage ride at Thanksgiving here at home, since we'll have just done that the week before we go to Disney, I'm not sure if it would really be very different.![]()
Have you read Emma's (disneybarbie) posts about the sleigh ride? That's what convinced me. And I've read a lot of comments about the decorations at WL....so we booked dinner at Whispering Canyon followed by a sleigh ride...very Christmasy!![]()
No I haven't read about it. Where can I find her comments?
We have a dinner booked at WCC, too. Hmmm... I might have to re-think this.![]()
I am so excited!I just finished reading my first Harry Potter book.
We are taking a day trip to Universal, and now I can't wait!
The kids and I plan to buy chocolate frogs and every-flavor beans in the candy store!!!

I'm starting book 2 tonight! I hope to be finished with them all before our trip!!!My wife bought me the first two books last year for Christmas. By the middle of February I had finished reading all seven, and got lucky when ABC Family channel had a Harry Potter weekend, so I got to see the first six movies. Now I am waiting for part 1 of the 7th book to come out in theaters.
I will probably get to the Harry Potter thing at Universal someday, but but will wait for the newness to wear off a bit.
I'm working on travel packages for our kids and nieces and nephews too, and also making penny money containers and autograph books. It's a lot of fun, isn't it? I just love the Creative DISign board!!![]()
Yes sooo much fun!! I just set up an alchemy on etsy to have someone do my t-shirts/sweatshirts for their packages! Im soo excited!!!
I am going to do pre trip packages with a long sleeve shirt for each girl that says their name on the front and then "Were headed to Disney" on the back. Countdown calenders, letters from mickey and the gang and something else just not sure what else.
Then for when they get to Dis. Im going to have packages for everyone (adults too) with shirts.
For kids: Autograph books and pens, disney dollars, welcome letters from someone, some fun treats, lip gloss/chapstick and not sure what else.. Im soo open for ideas!

Just some more suggestions. This is what we've done in the past--on the day we leave for Disney, we would tie a Disney character balloon to our mailbox and then let our daughter stumble upon it. She would open the mailbox to find a note from Disney. For example, we had a Minnie balloon and then a note from Minnie that read something like, "Can't wait to see you soon..." Then when we arrived at Disney and got our keys, I would quickly go to the room before my husband and children. We would tell them we were racing to see who got their first, but my husband would purposely take longer so that I could enact out plan! I would go inside the room and put gifts from Minnie on the table inside. There would also be a note that said something like, "So happy you are here!"Yes sooo much fun!!
