Wishing all our Canadian RCers a Happy Thanksgiving

Congrats on your RC!! Sounds like you are planning a grand vacation!

Thanks guys!!! Woooohooooo!!! I'm so glad DD9 "came out" with her actual love of the GF... because I honestly feel like it's the best option since we can't do Poly. And DH will do whatever his girls want, he's outnumbered in this house.

DD6 just said she needs to be able to wear a princess dress everyday while there.

Many thanks! Reading through the thread, I feel like I have found long lost soul mates... literal meaning of lost as we all seem to be hopping around.

Welcome!!!!

We've got a great bunch of enablers...err, people over here! Seriously though, great peeps who will help you make a great decision. I'm not great at saving money though....my trips just get more and more lavish.

I just switched our 10 nights to CL at GF!! Our last two trips were WL CL and YC CL...I'm running out of ways to step it up. luckily, our military discount makes these trips more "affordable" but

I would LOVE to do CL, but DH feels that since we are open-closers on our trips right now, we should save it for when we can have a more leisurely pace... this is our first week long trip, and hopefully a spring-board into the lengthier stays! Once we get a feel for how much resort time we'll start having, I can see CL in our future!!!

Hi! if you do ever try CL, be very careful! It is quite addictive, especially for a few of our DH's!

Happy Thanksgiving to all our Canadian peeps.... Sue, Jen, Marie

Hugs to all of you special needs moms. I don't know how you do it day in and day out and still manage to have your stuff so together. Truth is, I'm never on here anymore because I feel like I'm drowning every day with everything that comes along with DS's dx. I can't even bring myself to talk about it much. It just feels too weird.

Iheartost when you can just think of us as your life savers

We are back at the ped for round 2. She has an ear infection and in true Sarah form can't get down the antibiotics. We went through this when she was younger and I had hoped she outgrew it. Nope, still a puking machine when it comes to antibiotics. So we are here to start a 3 day course of injections

Melissa, do hope the injections are working... Poor Sarah

My oldest has a four day weekend in February so I am thinking that will be the next trip. I would love to pop in for F&G as well. Quite frankly, I'd love to go back for more F&W but not sure I can justify it!!! Then we will be down in July for 2 weeks.


Big hugs I heart!!! I hope you find a way to enjoy it!

Now - what is this hedge maze? In all my trips to WS, apparently I have missed it. Oh wait, is that because you are actually supposed to go INSIDE the countries? Not just eat and drink around the edges?

Thanks Janet! Is it normal to feel bad as each day ticks off that I don't use it? LOL. This AP could end up costing me a ton!!!!

Do you AP holders use TiW?

Lacey, yes, one does have that constant burning feeling in the pocket with that AP! it certainlyl makes it easier to plan a trip with when we "don't have to pay" for tickets!

Stopping in from the ambulance to give out a HUGE to all my RC family...but an extra special needs moomy hug to iheart, Melissa, and sis

HRH went for her neurodevelopmental visit this afternoon...and OH boy

Here's a special for Sarah for being so brave (Miss Jeanette HATES needle too sweetie)

Pas, This is for Maddie A big to HRH and our Queen.

Happy Thanksgiving Ca friends.

For the 3rd weekend in a row dh on a plane to fla to see his dad

I am so glad we canceled our anniversary trip in May and visited him instead.

Looks like they are taking him off the ventilator and he not strong enough to make it. He had open heart surgery in August but his COPD not cooperating. He is not aware of his surroundings anymore and down to 100 lbs(or less). My ds ran great today (XC) and was 1st for the Jv team. (He said for grampa).
My dh got to see that then headed for airport. It is just frustrating knowing he and mil there in fla with our family is all up here in NY.

I am usually packed by now for my upcoming trip but it is hard to feel happy knowing others in pain.

So my disney pen pals thanks for being there.

Ds has actually invited some kids over(first boy/girl get together) and I made brownies and have popcorn and drinks ready for scary movie night.

You know, do what we do best,(like you) be a great mom. That's something we can at least control.

Trish: So sorry to read the news about your FIL Hopefully your FIL gets some strength havng your DH with him.

So how was the social get together? btw congrats to your DS.

Aloha!!!

I am currently working on planning our Sept 2014 trip and have probably got a note on my reservation saying "can't make up her mind!" I started at WL in a SV room, then in a wild whim moved to CR Garden Wing for a brief stay, until planting at BC PV. Our biggest criteria was wanting to be close to a park and have 3 beds (we have a family friend coming and would love for her to have her own space rather than share with DD)

After running numbers and discussing with DH, we are now back at WL but with bunk beds. I keep second-guessing myself (mostly about if we should try to save $$$ or enjoy the luxury). The move from CR to BC to WL has been dropping the price bit by bit.

And, of course, all this might become moot if I can swing FD at POR next summer! AHHH! I'm going room crazy!

Welcome dimndga!! Sounds like you belong here Congrats on your newest little princess!

Hi! if you do ever try CL, be very careful! It is quite addictive, especially for a few of our DH's!

Would LOVE for DH to get addicted!!! I get a rush just from seeing the signs welcoming you to property!

Welcome dimndga!! Sounds like you belong here Congrats on your newest little princess!

Many thanks!!! Very excited to get her immersed in the Disney experience. Older DD had the fortune of going to DL at 17 months, youngest will be 15 months. Such fun to see it from their eyes! Just have to figure out where those eyes need to get their princess sleep!

Trish, so very sorry…my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. It must have been so difficult to tell DD in a phone call. It’s a blessing her friends happened to be visiting at this time.

ds says he wants to do movie night very week. I guess with sis not home he feels like entertaining.

DS seems to be branching out and charting his own path which is good! I see these changes in my DD as well.

It will be such fun experiencing Disney thru your two young princesses eyes. Those memories will be priceless.

You mentioned POR in the mix It's a beautiful resort!! I've stayed there twice and wouldn't hesitate to do so again (heck I am staying there in December!! .

Hey Janet!

I noted that my dates are a little off on page one. I am there 8/16/14 - 8/26/14.

I am going to try my darndest to make sure this is the last change...

 

[pas130]

I know that this is super dorky, but DH and I are so excited! We just bought some Disney stock!!!

I got that newsletter too Candace, I was gonna buy UNTIL I saw the price for the framing, etc....

Thanks lacey The hedge maze is back around the gazebo where the bands play in the UK. It's just a cute little English hedge garden where kids can burn off steam if need be (if no band is playing!)


for HRH and her wonderful momma.

back atya girl!!! I HAVE to bring the kiddos back there, I also have NEVER heard of it! Thank you!!!

Thank you to all the RCers that have wished us Canadians a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!! It means a lot! I am thankful for all of you!!

to our happy family!! Glad you found us!

My suggestion would be WL, and for some summer discounts...then maybe BC would be doable (with a daybed request so all could have their own bed)

I just switched our 10 nights to CL at GF!! Our last two trips were WL CL and YC CL...I'm running out of ways to step it up. luckily, our military discount makes these trips more "affordable"

Sorry, I mean AWESOME change

Candace out with the generic ticker, could this possibly be the final change?

NO WAY Although, Sugarloaf rocks...IDK about a final change for Candace...she is as bad as me in a good way of course

This is GREAT news!!! And princess dresses rock

Ugh, yeah, the framing costs, etc....were up there. But, DH was really excited about it. Every time we go down there, he says "We need to buy stock in this place".

We only bought 1 solitary share, but it's our little peice of the magic.

 

[trishadono]

Thanks everyone. Been a rough day with dh with his family in fla and dd not home either.

Thanks again for the good thoughts and prayers. It has helped.

So my parents are thinking of taking a trip down to Disney in January or February and camping at Fort Wilderness. I wonder if I could talk DH into letting me take the kids for a long weekend or something...LOL. Who am I kidding...
