As far as dressing up for the halloween party the only person that has made an official announcement is DD she is going to be a "generic" tinkerbell. She made her custome out of a mixture of dress -up clothes and her clothes. It is beautiful and it didn't cost me a dime.

DS changes his mind hourly but what can you expect from a four year old. When time gets closer we will help him make the great decision.

As for myself I am thinking of going as a Disboard member and DH won't dress up.

What does a Disboard member look like!? I may wanna do that, too.

For MNNSHP DH refused to wear a costume, which is fine, so he's wearing a Jack Skeleton tee from the Disney Store. I've found someone on Etsy who makes tees and has appliques of the hitching hiking ghosts from the Haunted Manson ride, so I'm going to have her make me a tee to wear that night.

Thank you There is only 4 pics (one row). If you are seeing more than 4, they don't belong to me. LOL!

Edit: Do you have your screen maximized? I just minimized my screen and my head was cutoff and in a 2nd row. So I stand corrected, if you see a 2nd row, it DOES belong to me. LOL!

I KNEW it had to be my settings! My screen is maximized and my zoom is set at 100%. If I change my zoom to 75%, then I see all 4 pics in one row - but then the font of the text is too small.
I think the issue is my Monitor resolution settings. Oh well - at least now I know it's just me!

This thread is moving today! Getting excited!!!!

Our trip is officially booked for POR 10/7-10/15/2011!

I just made dining ressies for Kouzzina. When I go online and review all my dining ressies, it doesn't say Kouzzina. It says "Chef's Menu at CoraNation Room" and when I click on that name it takes me here: http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/dining/cora-nation-room/. Says $60 per person and $$$$! Never even knew there was a special room at Kouzzina. But on my reservation page, when I click "view details" for that reservation, it shows Kouzzina.

A couple pages back someone else mentioned this issue. Many replies stated that its not a problem - just a "glitch" in the reservation system. HTH

I actually lived in Myrtle Beach for 5 years back in the late 80s early 90s. It has changed SO MUCH! We have visited a few times in the past 10 years when going to SC to see family. You must do some fun mini-golf while there. So many great "courses" to choose from. Very touristy but so fun! I love Jungle/Lagoon. it's a classic for me and double the fun. Lots of great shopping/dining complexes in Myrtle Beach and North Myrtle Beach. Highly reccomend any seafood restaurant in Murrels Inlet(sp?) and Surfside beach has a really nice pier.

Where are you staying??

We are going with my son's baseball team and families and staying at the Avista Resort in North Myrtle Beach. The team will be playing in the Cal Ripkin Tournament, but even though there will be lots of baseball, we'll also have tons of "free-time"!

My DH and 3 boys all love to golf, so in addition to mini-golf, I know they will be hitting the regular courses too. As for me and the other moms - we'll be hitting the beach and the shops!

Hey--if you ladies are up for a yummy seafood pot, try Bimini's Oyster Bar. It is across the street to the north of Kroger grocery store in a little strip mall. You can get a pot full of steamed oysters, crab legs, clams and shrimp with a side of hush puppies. So delish. VERY casual atmosphere with tasty drinks too! You can also get similar pots and more seafood at the Marina Raw Bar just off Vereens(sp?) Marina. They have outdoor seating there too if the weather is nice. Also--if your group loves buffalo wings and yummy sandwiches/appys, definitely go to Oscar's in NMB. Sports bar atmosphere with great food. Why am I so hungry now???

Have fun with it!

Thanks Amanda! Exactly what I was looking for - I LOVE seafood! And the sports bar place will be perfect for the whole team.

Sorry gang, for veering

And now back to your regularly scheduled programming.......

That's awesome!

BTW, I had to swim to my car today through humidity that I think was an invisible version of the Blob. It's bad when you take 1/2 a step out of your house and don't want to go any further. PHEW!!!

How are we all doing today? 93 days for me! My countdown pic on my iPhone is of the monorail passing by the ball at epcot. (eta: yes, it is the ball to me. )

Happy Friday!!!

I know exactly what you mean about the weather! It's been over 100 everyday for what feels like weeks!! I think we are going at the same time! I just can't wait to be on VACATION!!

 

[Crazy Kanga]

85 days to go! I really am so excited! Ready to be back to my happy place with our best friends!

We are! I know, I keep looking at my countdown and sometimes I get excited over the exact same number of days just because we're in double digits now! When we hit 90 days I don't know what I'm going to do!

 

[Pixiedust530]

85 days to go here!!! Where did the time go? I can't believe summer is almost over and I have to return to work in just a few short weeks. WOW!!!

I'm beyond ready for Disney to be here! I NEED a vacation!

Are you a teacher???

Is that enough green? I went to school for secondary Ed, English and was a high school teacher for a year in FL, but couldn't find anything when I moved back up north, so I went into IT. I'm now an Instructional Designer, but we don't get summers off. Jealous!!!

 

[Heath_Bar]

71 days left here!

How come the closer I get the more I find to I need to do? Started working on autograph books today. Using the wonderful work on here provided by so many has helped a ton - it would have taken me 4 times as long if I had to make everything from scratch. They are saying rain here tomorrow - hopefully I can get them ordered.

71 days left here!

71 days?? Lucky!!

And I hear you about the closer it gets the more I find to do! Brent text me today that he got a tube from work, that made me ! It's a tube so we can roll up our drawings from the Animation class and bring them home safely.

 

[NikkiLovesWDW!]

68 days for me!! I'm going end of Sept/beginning of Oct though....

It really is going fast considering that when I booked it was over 300 days...
