****Official May 2012 Thread**** ALMOST TIME TO LEAVE!!

[PolyndianPrincessJes]

Pool, pool and more pool! And I guess the fitness center *sigh*. Yes, I do work out during vacation...it actually gives me more energy and I don't feel guilty eating all that good food (and cupcakes).

Last day of work today! Yay! Heading to the airport tomorrow morning at 10 am.

My gparents travel to WDW with us, and my gpa is up every morning at 4:30 walking the grounds and making his way to the gym. You can take the man out of the Marines...

So, don't worry, you're not the only one.

Question of the Day:

What resort activities are you looking forward to? Boats, pool, fishing, carriage rides….? ​

Pool and watching wishes from the Poly Beach. If my kids are up to it, I'd like to attend the Chip n Dale singalong at Ft. Wilderness.

30 days and all of a sudden I'm freaking out! Do I have enough time to get everything done? What do I have to do? I can't pack too soon since it's a surprise. total panic mode today!

7 days from right now we will be landing at MCO.... so far so good with the 10 day weather outlook.

3 1/2 days left... weather is looking good. 20% chances for rain everyday but that seems to be the norm I'm doing laundry for the last time today

Renting bicycles and/or a surrey bike and taking a couple of spins around the resort. The hammocks on the beaches are also our favorites!

Today is my baby girl's birthday!!! She officially has to pay at WDW now.




We had her party this weekend and I just wanted to share a picture of her cake because I think it was stinking awesome.

It was red velvet with cream cheese filling with buttercream icing. The cupcakes were just vanilla with buttercream icing so that we had something for the kids who didn't want red velvet.

So, now that has been crossed off the list, we just have a couple more things to get through before we leave. We've got two weeks until DD9's dance recital and I don't have to do anything for that, so I'm hoping to get some sewing done.

Happy birthday! I am loving the cake and cupcakes! Did you make them?

I like the 3 1/2 days - sounds better than 4

I always say I'm done with laundry, but somebody always wants something washed at the last minute...it'll be weird this time, just packing for me for DW, but packing up the boys for their weekends with friends/family...

Since we are DVC and stay about 12 days a year we don't do commando any more. I've learned to love packing my Disney canvas bag with sun block, my iPad, iPod, a drink and a snack and sit by the hidden springs pool at my beloved VWL. I end up people watching more then reading but it is very relaxing.

Oh man, I wish!!!! Shoot, if I were that talented, I would have offered to make Lacey's wedding cake!

DH found a little bakery about 45 minutes from us that does fantastic work. He spent waaay too much, but it was worth it.

I told him that, at the rate he's going, we'd be having to pay for ginormous Disney weddings for both girls. To which he responded "Why didn't we have boys? Then we wouldn't have to pay for it." Not "No way!" or "You are out of your mind!"

I am actually counting down the hours.. lol.. that sounds so much better! Minutes after I posted I got a phone call from DS's school that he was sick and needed to be picked up I just hope no one else gets it and he's rid of it by Friday!

It's the 1st time at Pop for my Dsis so I am looking forward to her seeing all the cool stuff! We'll powerwalk along the lake and see how much is to be seen over at AoA. We don't spend much time at the resorts - for us, it's all about the parks!

 

[Mammaz]

Got our Disney packet today!!!!!!! 28 more days!
