I cant wait!! I booked this room way back in last Sept. hoping and praying to get a PIN code and low and behold I scored a 40%!!!

Next up: Dinning ressies and Park Plans

So we are leaving our house at 4am to get to the airport and check in. Our flight leaves at 7am but with travel there and 3 kids and 4 adults and about 7 suitcases and bags...we will need the time lol. We should arrive at MCO at 9am or so. I left this whole day unplanned because you never know! I figured we would just explore the resort and relax-after all its our vacation! Relax? whats that? I am an obsessive planner and organizer so every day and every meal is planned out. I didnt plan anything to do it the parks because I cant be that planned out my DH will flip lol. OOPS I have a hungry baby. I will post the rest of the plans in a bit!

Yeah, first to sign on board and tag along! How great to never have been to WDW and starting off with the Poly, Club Level!!! All these firsts for you. It is going to be fun to watch this trip develop.

LOL I have my first follower!

Ok my friends are going down with us. My bestest friend in the whole world and her girls are tagging along. But you know for the love of me I cant figure out why they are having such a hard time finding a disney resort to stay at! She originally booked the Poly with us but I got a PIN code and she didnt and do to some financial obligations lately will not be able to afford the Poly so I suggested instead of canceling the trip altogether, she should down grade. Well now her girls arent happy. They booked the POFQ and they hate it. I am running out of suggestions for them and to me it doesnt matter where I stay cuz after all Im in DISNEY!!!!

I managed to get some trip stuff done this weekend. I bought luggage locks, some clearance shorts for me and DH. I ordered my dads 2 day pass(he is coming up from Ft Myers with my grandparents for Monday and Tuesday) and I preordered out photopass. To save money, we will be sharing it I cant wait to go! I think everyone is getting irritated with me cuz I am counting down the days lol BTW....33 days!!!!!

I did slip into Michaels and find some really cool glow bracelets for the kids!

Realizing that all my spare time has been thinking or planning our trip, I forgot to start my Christmas shopping. I usually start in August. I think Santa is just gonna have to wait until I get back from the mouse

Next up: Packing AHHHH!!!

Great plans! We will be there at the same time. I'm jealous you are staying at the Poly though! I don't know how you're going to resist going to the parks on your first day though. Especially with staying at the Poly and seeing MK!! Your girls will be begging you!

We loved POFQ when we stayed there. It small and quiet, easy to get around. The food court was pretty good and the boat to DTD was excellent!
