Official May Countdown Thread! Post your dates here!

Is anyone secretly packing yet? :laughing:

I am! We are two months and a week out, but I am packing for seven and don't want to rush! I actually put our summer stuff right into the suitcases when we did the winter clothes changeover! I just got certain outfits that won't wrinkly into ziplocs in each bag. I am contemplating doing some ironing now and just having it all hung and waiting. I like to be doing a Disney project! And since most of my other large projects are well on their way...

I am packing already... My DS is completely packed, including his stuff to do on the plane. I have one of my DD 7 kinda packed... I have all of her stuff together, I just need to get her a suitcase to pack it in...:lmao: It is still cold here right now, so they don't need the warm weather clothes, so as I buy them I put them away for our trip. I have all of the girls plane stuff together too.. and all of our shower/medicine/emergency stuff already packed too.
 

Just booked today!!! We are going to POR from May 11-18 for our anniversary! Can't wait to get some Florida sun. I hope that by then we will have no (less) snow here and a bit of our own sun!:cool1::goodvibes

Oh....and we are leaving the kids at home too! :rotfl2::rotfl2:
 
Well does secretly shopping count?:rotfl:

Been shopping this week....our bags with be overflowing maybe:rolleyes1

Just love getting new clothes and shoes!:banana:
 
We just started making our before Disney to do list and I started making my list for things we need to bring. We are driving and I am bringing my Keurig Coffee maker with me. I love that coffee maker and can't wait to have a nantucket blend cup of coffee while I sit on the patio of my one bedroom suite at the Boardwalk!!

I am SOOOO jealous you are driving so you can bring your Keurig. I don't know how I'm going to survive my week in Disney without mine. Not being able to bring it is the one downfall to flying :sad1:
 
How are the crowds in May? We may be there the 23rd through the 27th, a quick trip before we start construction on our new house :banana:

Altogether, crowds are very manageable in may. It's a little lighter at the beginning of may, but we went the 20-27 in 2007 and it was fine. Definitely got much busier near Memorial Day weekend. Congrats on your house,:banana:
 
Is anyone secretly packing yet? :laughing:

I want to be!! We have our 2 Disney boxes where we keep things for each trip so I don't have to repack/find for each trip.

I am thinking about what clothes to take and this week I'll have my girls try them on to see if they still fit from last year. Hoping they do so we don't have to buy new clothes (and can buy more souvenirs instead!)
 
We are going May 6-13 and are staying at BCV. This is our first time at the beach club...we've stayed at the Grand Floridian and WLVs. We are bringing our 6 month old baby (along with our 5 year old and the in-laws) so I might be completely insane. :)
 
So happy to report that all the clothing fits for my girls for our May trip!!
Now I just need to pull my clothes and DH's tops to match. I like to coordinate all our clothing so we wear the same basic color scheme. It's also easier to remember what we are wearing if we get lost and makes the photos look better and easier to crop.

So if you see a tall couple and 2 girls in lime green, hot pink and bright yellow, that'll be us!:rotfl2: We have some wild colors picked!:lmao:

We buy all new clothes for our trips bc I scrapbook and I can't repeat the same thing I've worn before. We also coordinate so the photos will look good!!!!!!!! I plan the colors to the types of pages I would typically make for that park :goodvibes. Crazy I know but it's Disney!!!!!
