OH BOY!!*My 1st PTR for our 1st ever WDW trip JUNE 2011* 6/14: Started my TR.

[PixieMama]

I am so sick today. Nasty cold!
I'm working hard on getting my planning journal done, I'm really liking it so far!! I will post pics of it as soon as it's done! I found the perfect Mickey journal to use for it yesterday!!

UGH, being sick is no fun. Feel better soon!

You didn't happen to find the MM journal at Target, did you? I was there the other day and saw one!

No I actually found it at Walmart! They had a few different ones! They are, I think, about a 5x8 size which is exatly what I wanted, instead of carrying around the big 3 ring binder I was using!


Edited to correct my spelling, I hate to be misspelled, so the above is supposed to say EXACTLY! LOL

I wish my Walmart had MM journals when I was buying mine. But I do really enjoy the lime green one I found.

Sorry to hear you're feeling bad. Get it out now, so you won't be sick while at Disney--that's what I say!!

I really like your Disney song list for your trip. You will be in Disney Heaven on your travels.
So sorry to hear that you are not feeling well . Get well vibes being sent your way.....

Hope you are feeling better. The last time we did RD for EMH morning at AK and headed straight to the safari most of the animals were not out yet. We saw half of the stuff we saw the previous trip so you may want to head the other way and get Dino out of the way first.
Hope the cold goes away fast!

Ok so finally caught up I think all of your plans sound great! Love the cd list. I have a Disney 2 cd set that is completely worn out from the kids listening to it so much in the car. This year we are using the Pandora app on the Blackberry to listen to The Disney stations.

Hope your feeling better soon, I agree to get it out of your system now, that was my attitude when I was sick 2 weeks ago. I'd rather be sick now than at Disney!

I think I finally have my planning journal finished, pics coming soon!

[hollybearsmom]

that looks so awesome! how great that you have it all in one place and room to take notes for your tr too! where did you get all the stickers and add-ins?

 

[Lidian]

I love love love your planning journal! You did such an amazing job with it! Now, I have to go sit and be jealous.

Thank you! I got most of the stickers at our Hobby Lobby store in the scrap-booking section. Some of the bambi stickers came from a book that came with the Bambi DVD when we bought it.
The pics that are in there I added in on power point from stuff I found online.

I love love love your planning journal! You did such an amazing job with it! Now, I have to go sit and be jealous.

Thank you, Thank you!! Now you just need to go make one! LOL

 

[BellaBaby]

Jumping on board!! Your plans sound great!! The AK/HS day will be very full!!

Love your journal!!

Thanks for the link to the Rainforest Cafe Reward charts--will definitely come in handy!!

If your daughter likes P&F-- I bought my kids the P&F CD, I think it's the original one, that has 26 songs on it and I actually really enjoy it as well. I got it for under 10 bucks on Amazon. The songs are so catchy and fun!!

P.S. Forgot to add, my DS was 4 last year when we went on Soarin' for the first time and he loved it!! We all did!!

How cute! That is always one thing I seriously lack at and that is taking notes while we are on vacation. I always try to remember everything when I get home and that is not always possible. I am sorry to hear you are feeling sick. Our family is going through a similar problem here. This winter-spring so far has been really bad on the colds. I hope, like you said, it gets us now and not one vacation.

 

[sahm2two]

your planning journal is so cute! I love it I really need to go down to Hobby Lobby to try to find some good Disney scrapbooking stickers. I just raided my daughters' sticker stash for my journal

 

[PixieMama]

That is the same journal I saw at Target, LOL!

Yours looks great. I love all the detail!

 

[Lidian]

Thank you, Thank you!! Now you just need to go make one! LOL

I gotta figure out exactly when I'm going first!
