Our Bigger Better Vacation From Missouri

[luulu1999]

Following along! Wow, you're so lucky you got the 20% off deal from Orbitz/ebates. I jumped the gun and bought at 10% off a few weeks earlier, but still, I can't complain much as 10% off is still better than nothing!

Your t-shirts are amazing! I'm so NOT crafty but if it's truly easy, maybe I'll make some for my kids!

Thanks for following along!! I was SO excited that the 20% deal happened at the right time that I was already going to be getting our stuff!!!

The shirts are SOOO easy...the neon family one I actually put the design together my self the rest I got of Etsy and just printed them out on Transfer paper and Ironed them on!! I am most definitely not crafty either!! You can do it!!

Haven't had much going on in way of our vacation...July can't get here fast enough....but something semi related has happened....last week my car started acting crazy running hot doing some crazy things so on Wednesday I put it in the shop to see what the problem was....only to find out it was a lot of problems I haven't even had it a year(got it from a crappy used car lot...never again will that happen) and was told the whole coolant system was a disaster and it was going to be $1100 to fix!!!!! My crazy stuff I have ever heard in my life!!! Sooo instead of paying all that money to fix it I have made the decision to get a new car(not brand spanking new but a lot newer and less miles than what I got)....how does this pertain to our trip you ask? We are getting a Ford Escape which is a small/mid size SUV so instead of having to pay $1200 to rent a van for our trip we will be driving our new car!!! $1200 saved Im excited!!!

My ticker seems to be DRAGGING by!!! Is July ever gonna get here!!!! We don't have much going on trip wise....we are getting ready to move so that is taking up a huge amount of time and energy!!

 

[luulu1999]

Not much going on with our vacation to report....I don't think there is much else to do until I can make some reservations....I will be SOOOO excited when that time comes....we got moved over the last few days, I am going to have to get a second job to get everything caught up from having to buy a vehicle and move all in the same month that hits the wallet hard For now I am just enjoying other peoples trip reports and reading and wishful thinking on DIS

I have been thinking about our vacation and I had seen in someone's trip report pics from Surf's up breakfast and it looked like a lot of fun....Now we aren't really big on breakfast BUT I think I may get another Character meal and do Surf's up the morning we leave to come back home as a little last hoorah....and I REALLY wanna see stitch and apparently that's the only place you can see him.....I am also still completely undecided about the F! dessert package on one hand I think my kids would enjoy it and its nice to have seats but on the other its SO expensive for a 5&6 year old....any thoughts comments suggestions??

I have officially started packing...kinda...got our shirts packed and our pixie dust stuff (bubbles and glow sticks), and I measured my DD(5) yesterday and she is over 46 inches so she will get to ride almost everything....she may even make 48 by our trip but im not so sure she will get on screaming even if she is tall enough....My DS(6) is 48 now or taller and he is so excited to ride the roller coaster!! 3 weeks and 3 days....come on!!
