10 DAYS!!!



Just wanted to jump in for my daily update!! Since it's getting so close to the holidays and everyone is getting in the Christmas spirit I thought I'd share some pics!! I decorated for Christmas last week before Thanksgiving bc we've been over here at my parents while they're gone and I wanted it all up when we got home so I could enjoy it longer!! And there's some Disney thrown in there of course!!

Onboard again...I love your Disney village... that is the Christmas Village I want to collect... it would go great with our train set from WDW. I also have your Jim Shore piece.... I hope Santa brings me another one.

Congrats on the big anniversary... what a year it has been!

Thanks, I really love it too. I get way into decorating for the holidays especially. Oooh what kind of village do you have?? I wanna see!

And yes, ITA about having Disney in the house. I do too, it's necessary. One day we (ok, I) plan on having a whole Disney themed room.

YAY I'm glad you found me here! I'm hoping Santa brings me another one too...or maybe DH will just buy me one in Disney, lol. I love Jim Shore.

I am planning on getting the suitcases down this weekend and start to put things in them. This upcoming week is going to be CRAZY!!!

Tonight I am co-hosting a lingerie shower/bachelorette party for my bff so I've been busy today getting ready for that. Tommorow we are going to lunch w/DH's parents and then running some errands, and I'm going to make some cookies and stuff to take with us to Disney. Sunday my mom and I are going to DISNEY ON ICE!!! I'm so excited.

Monday is our ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY! We prob won't go out or anything but we'll have our anniversary layer of our cake and watch our wedding video.Then next week I'll also be finishing up my internship, but Wednesday my mom and I are going to some outlets to do some Christmas shopping, a few hours away. Thursday night is the rehearsal dinner, and then Friday is the wedding I'm in. And we leave the very next morning!!!

Hi guys!!! Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Sadly, I didn't make it to Disney on Ice today. I've been fighting a cold for a week now, and I just felt awful this morning before church, and hoped I would feel better but I just didn't. My dad ended up going with my mom. I'm sad, but I just felt awful today. I'm feeling a little bit better tonight, but still just all stuffed up and congested. so yuck. I just slept most of the day and finished up my last final to turn in tommorow. I need to be better before the wedding this weekend and to leave for DISNEY!

Speaking of Disney, we're down to just 5 days!!!!!!



Definitely doing the happy dance around here! Yesterday afternoon DH and I ran errands and got stuff to take...I'm one of those people who likes new shampoo and soaps and stuff to take. weirdo. And just a few things like snacks and stuff to have in the room. We also got the suitcases down from the attic so we could start putting things in them this week. I'm paranoid about forgetting something. I have a huge list going!

We also decided not to take our bikes w/us. I'm kinda disappointed...but my parents went and looked around out at OKW while they were there last week, and she said she just didn't see alot of areas to ride. There IS a path to Saratoga Springs and DTD, but that's really the only place to ride. Plus, since we're doing the resort changing 3 times, they'll be a hassle to move around, and we don't want to leave them on the carrier overnight. I'd hope nothing would happen at Disney but you can never really be too sure. So, they won't be going. We can rent them at OKW if we really want to ride though. So all is well.

Not much to update on. This week during my down time I am going to be printing out stuff from Tour Guide Mike, I'm a HUGE fan and it works so well, so while I am not planning out days, we will follow that for the most part. I'm also watching the weather...its looking like a good part of the week is going to be pretty warm, but its still early to say, so I'm hoping it will end up being cooler. We'll see. I'm getting so excited!!

And just for fun, here are a few pictures from the lingerie shower/bachelorette party I co-hosted Friday night. Lots of fun...there was drama, reminded me of why I don't have alot of girlfriends, lol. Too much drama for me! But it was a good time!

cutting her cake, it was so pretty..

in her bachelorette getup! I made her sash..

me and the bride!

don't mind the black marks. we had name tags that were not Dis appropriate!


thanks for reading!

First off, we are at

THREE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




I CANNOT believe I only have four more sleeps until we leave!!! We are getting BEYOND excited. Last night we were laying in bed, talking about all the fun stuff we cannot wait to do!!! This vacation is so needed, for both of us. I just cannot wait to get away, and relax, and play in my favorite place in the world, with my favorite person in the world.

Here is the countdown today!

whoohooo!!

And I have just a few pictures from our anniversary yesterday. It was a very low key day, we decided not to do much yesterday since our trip is our gift to each other! I cooked dinner (I made ribs in the crockpot, WAY easy), and we ate some of our anniversary layer of our cake. It was very good. We are planning on taking the rest w/us to Disney, hoping it will make it. I put it back in the freezer last night, and we are taking a cooler so I think it will be fine.

pics...

YUM. And a pic of our actual wedding cake, just for reference...

Thanks for reading!!!

I'm glad you had a nice anniversary yesterday!

Hope your feeling better!!!

 

[tinkgurl]

Hey girl! Geeze I'm behind! I never realized you were making a TR. Looks like you have only 3 days left?! I know you've probably said it, but where are you staying?

 

[IluvXU]

aw thanks so much, I'm glad you like the pictures, I sure do like showing them off! It was fun to go through them again a year later. We had a great day, even though it was so simple. And I am feeling better, thanks!!!

Hey girl! Geeze I'm behind! I never realized you were making a TR. Looks like you have only 3 days left?! I know you've probably said it, but where are you staying?

YAY I'm glad you found me!!! We are staying at THREE places. All Star Sports the first night, then OKW for five, and then Pop for the last 2 nights.

Have a fantastic trip!

Thanks!! I'm ready to go NOW!

 

[Hillary12.8.07]

Hey kids!!

I'm checking on today because who knows what the next two days will be like! We have the rehearsal dinner tonight, and then the wedding is tommorow! busy busy.

We got most of our stuff packed the day before yesterday, since I was going to be gone all day yday. My mom and I drove up near Athens, Ga to some outlets and got a good bit of Christmas shopping done. Very fun, and I feel much more accomplished. Since we won't be back until the 21st, I've been stressing!

We got our suitcases out and I turned on our Disney planning DVD while we packed. HUGE nerd, I know. But it was fun and we're pretty much done. I'm finishing laundry today and plan on being completely packed before we leave tonight for the rehearsal, because I know how crazy tommorow will be, I have to be at the church at 3 and we'll pretty much come home late afterwards and crash. So we need to be READY!!!!!!!!!!

We are SO SO excited...my mom and I talked alot about Disney stuff yesterday in the car, she was telling me stuff they did a few weeks ago when they were there, and it just got me so pumped to go!

So in case I dont get back on here before we leave, I will take LOTS of pictures, and will talk to you guys when I get home!!! Mickey here we come!!! 2 more sleeps!
