PART FIVE!! *December 2012 Roll Call* Holidays, FLE & MVMCP!! A very, merry thread!

Only DISers could get so excited about a picture of the inside of a bus.

Lol, I clicked on "last page" from my subscribed threads area in the User CP for this thread and as soon as I read that there was a picture of the inside of a bus I was excitedly checking the pages I had skipped to see the picture!

To answer my own question: http://www.floridasturnpike.com/

Ball park: $5.00 total for both toll roads. All drivers: bring coins and small bills just incase they don't take CC. (do they take Disney gc? )

We just put all our change in a change holder in our car from the various stops along our drive and we always have more than enough. You end up stopping quite a bit over a 2000 mile drive!

Sorry for the double post!

It's funny precisely because it's so true, LOL! I was sitting here bouncing up and down and then realized what I was excited about.

Wonderful! Is he planning to spring it on you at WDW? I would be beside myself wondering how he's going to do it.
Anyway, I'm glad you didn't say "Are you kidding?" like I did. DH never lets me forget that.

I had said awhile ago "wouldn't it be so romantic to get engaged at WDW on 12/12/12" Apparently, he has been taking notes! Today he non-chalantly asked what my ring size is? We will be at MVMCP at 12midnight on 12/12/12!!!

Mickey toes!

Those are the cutest!!!

It has been a great day!!!! Got my hair cut and colored (sorry, nothing dramatic) and texted with my HR friend while I was there. I have a job!! She is currently negotiating the start date and pay for me. She told me the range it would be and I would be fine with even the lower end of it, but she is trying for almost what I was making at my old job. The start date is currently 2/13, but she is trying to get that moved up. I told her that date is fine with me, if I know I get the job. So excited!!! I was hoping this would come through before we went to Disney, so DH wouldnt stress over every souvenir or drink purchased.

Such great news!!! What a day for you!

I went looking for the like button!! This is AWESOME!!!! (I think this is my favorite emoticon!)

That's my favorite, too!

Accuweather is starting to show rain for while we are there!

I looked at the forecast at 5:30am and then again at 6:30am...can you tell that I am a little obsessed with the weather?? It completely changed within that hour and both were completely different than a few days ago!

Well, I just check Weather.com or WeatherUnderground until I find a forecast I like. Which just goes to show you that this far out the accuracy of weather reports is barely better than throwing darts!

I just said the same thing today...are they throwing darts or drawing temps and/or suns and clouds out of a hat??

Awesome! Glad he's keeping it a secret.

Apparently, secrecy isn't one of his strong suits!

We're here!

DH wore his Old Navy Griswold Family Christmas t-shirt yesterday and he got so much attention. 4 male and 1 female CMs stopped him to comment that they loved the shirt. And 4 male vacationers stopped to talk to him as we'll. DH accused me of being jealous of all the attention he was getting. LOL!

Remind him of all that attention if you get tackled and hugged by one of the Dec DISer gang

Hey everyone

Just wanted to check in with you all!

Only 10 more days!!! I just did online check in

I can't wait for the girls to find out that we're staying at AoA in the LM section They won't know until we are pulling into the resort!!!

 

[brunette8706]

I'm getting a T3i! I've always had Canons and wanted to stick with one, but really wanted to upgrade to a DSLR! I am beyond excited. I keep looking out the door for the UPS man! (Even though I know he won't be here till after 3 since that's normally when they're in our neighborhood.) stalking much?

Oh...the T3i is the newer version of mine! You will LOVE it! Bonus....you can use your other lenses on it (I think)

 

[tofubeast]

Congrats Valgoof!! Awesome day indeed!!


How are some of you posting pics to a dis thread over the phone?

Hahahaha- there is no way to ask nonchalantly about a ring size. So sweet!

Yay! Maybe I will get to meet up with you!

I know I want to go Oct 19th - whenever. Oct 20 starts Fall season, which is cheaper than regular season2 .

I like your logic! Too bad my fall break is Oct 12-20 :/

Hey, all of you lucky December Disers who are already there- would you keep an eye out for any unique Christmas ornaments? I had heard there was a glassblower in the Germany section who would make personalized ornaments. Generally, an ornament is all I am sure to buy when we travel, because I am The Anti-Shopper.

Well, my peg-legged pooch is doing much better today, and these great pics and reports from everyone who has already arrived are so exciting- now I'm finally starting to look forward to this entire endeavor!

I'm going to Target and buy up a bunch of Disney cards with my Target card (that's like getting a 5% discount off everything at Disney), and pick up some odds & ends. Then download another DIsney movie onto the ipad, and order a Disney Trivia book from Amazon to get them in the spirit while on the plane. My sis sent the kids Disney gift cards for Christmas so with all this I think I've got the "goody" bag pretty well handled.

It looked like it could remind you to take pictures. Like you could somehow program it to say you wanted to take a picture at POTC and then when you are there it will (somehow) notify you to take a picture. I just quickly read over the description in between the chaos here. I could be totally wrong

Is this an iphone app? Can't find it on my android.

Cupcake #2 of the trip

Butterfinger cupcake at Starring Rolls

8 out 10 stars for me. So good but really rich. A good one to split with someone.

yum! this is on my list....as well as the peanut butter one

 

[dawnmichele]

Oh my goodness you guys!
I've let myself get behind reading this thread as I've focused on all the things that have to be done before our trip, but I am so Disney obsessed and excited right now I had to come here to share.

I just did online check in (never done that before and hope it was a good idea). I've printed out all our reservations and double checked that the scooter will be there. I can't believe this trip I've been planning and daydreaming about since April is so very close.

I know you know exactly how I feel.

Tomorrow, Wednesday and then Thursday morning, still dark and crazy early we will be off!

Woohoo!!

Congrats Valgoof!! Awesome day indeed!!

How are some of you posting pics to a dis thread over the phone?

I have a photobucket account and use that app. If I upload from my photos to the app, I can then open a photo and click on the "i" which allows me to click on the "img" code to copy it, then paste it in a post.

 

[Wendimn]

I am totally stressed and having some kind of pre WDW breakdown.. Just soo nervous about going..and the boys getting to see and do what they want..

 

[geckodani]

[ksromack]
