I think you are right!

We're going to see it the day after we get back (14th) - we have to see it, its the law in our house. Anything to do with LOTR/Hobbit because I was named after one of the characters .... I'll tell ya, being a girl I scored BIG time, if I had been a boy I was going to be called Aragorn or Gandalf HA!

So glad you were a girl.

I know right - Gandalf *rolls eyes* talk about a free ticket to getting beaten up at school every day

I've been away tonight.. We went and picked up Brave from the Disney Store and OF COURSE I had to use my coupon Got some more T-Shirts for Disney and a couple things for our friends we're meeting at WDW.

I also went to Starbucks this afternoon and saw these:



I thought they were PERFECT for this group. Gooey cinnamon rolls at Starbucks. Problem solved.

I won't be drinking much at WDW. I like to have a beer or a glass of wine every now and then, but I want to do be able to ride rides and such, so I'll water and Coke it sometimes. And coffee in the AM.

Hi from the November DISers! I'm leaving for my WDW trip in 5 days. My DH picked up postcard stamps today and got a little carried away. So I'm offering to send a postcard to some families with kids from Disney. I'm limiting it to the first 10 families. 1 card per family. PM me your contact info if you are interested and give me a little input on what kind of card I should seek out and what you'd like the card to say. Just so you don't think I'm some weirdo stalker person looking for random addresses you can check out my PTR and see my cute kids and plans.

That is very cute! These are the ones Avon has which I am in love with. Mostly the Minnie

I need an Avon lady! I LOVE those watches....I don't even wear a watch!

Though you can buy wine in France, Italy, Germany and AK.

And there are third parties that deliver baskets. I assume they'll deliver offsite.

I think we'll do this for a couple bottles to drink during our stay.....at least one for our sleigh ride.

This is SO sweet! If our trip wasn't a surprise I would totally take you up on this offer!

Yeah, I'd say you dodged a bullet there.

No way. Starbucks has cinnamon rolls? I know a great location for them!!

Mickey Mail arrived today!!!!

WOOT!

Hello! Wow, I'll never be able to read this entire thread!!

We'll be arriving in Disney on December 31st. I'm super excited to be there for New Years! I won't say which resort because I haven't revealed that info in my PTR yet. Here is the link to it:
In Loving Memory... We're Going Deluxe!

1. How many days till your upcoming trip? 46 days

2. What do you have done? Booked the resorts, the flight, and my DD's first haircut!

3. What do you have remaining to do? Figure out which park to go when, make ADRs, rent stroller

4. Are you decorating your hotel room? No

5. Any outstanding ADRs you are hoping to snatch up? Haven't made any, but based on a quick look at the dining reservation website, I shouldn't have too much trouble. Only want to make 5 anyway.

6. Are there any last minute trip decisions you are still pondering? (i.e. attending MVMCP, ungrading/downgrading) What to do exactly on New Year's Eve.

7. How do you feel right now? (Excited? Overwhelmed? Stressed? All planned out? "Meh"? In a planning frenzy? Festive? Confused? Dorky?) Excited and in a planning frenzy! A bit stressed about traveling with a baby, and how will she handle it. Her not napping at all while we were shopping today does not bode well for napping in the parks. She's too curious!

So too tired to catch up on everything.... However lots of new roll callers!!

So finally got my hair cut! It's super short!!

Welcome to the group! I'm sure your sweet baby will feel the pixie dust and be a perfect angel!

We're going to see it the day after we get back (14th) - we have to see it, its the law in our house. Anything to do with LOTR/Hobbit because I was named after one of the characters .... I'll tell ya, being a girl I scored BIG time, if I had been a boy I was going to be called Aragorn or Gandalf HA!

Oh, I know you do! I'm glad you were a girl too.....Gandalf doesn't suit you at all!

 

[Valgoof]

I can't look at a cinnamon bun now without laughing!


5 days!!!!

They may have replaced the cupcake as this group's official food.

 

[RooRach0906]

yum!

They look great!

Thanks!

Coolest idea EVER! I am soooo stealing that for office gifts!

So easy too.

Oh, I LOVE christmas projects! We just said at work yesterday that we'd like a craft day!

I find myself loving craft projects lately... I have a few more to do.

These look wonderful! Is it fudge sorts? The cookie cutters are bonus! Maybe I'll make something like this for my co-workers!

It's straight chocolate with sugar crystals or mint m&ms. I used Hershey's baking melts milk chocolate and semi-sweet mixed... I documented the whole thing and plan on blogging about it hopefully tomorrow along with the chocolate marshmallows which I will be posting a picture of shortly.

Also, Gandalf would look crap in pink

So excited to be leaving for the World in 28 days!! This will be our 2nd Christmas spent at Disney! Staying at POFQ for 13 nights. We stayed there last yr and loved the smallness of the resort! Can't wait to feel the Magic again!

 

[RooRach0906]

Chocolate Marshmallows

The plan is to put these with the mugs I made and give some out just like they are.

Oh, these a perfectly festive! I need to sit down and figure out my cookies this year. I baked about 9 different cookies last year for Christmas and i'm not sure where I'll squeeze that in this year

Thank you! I know what you mean about the cookies I normally do 5 kinds, 1 of which is very time consuming, and I'm wondering when I will get them done esp since I wanted to give a cookie tray to my neighbors, its our first year in the neighborhood and I have no idea when to do the cookies. Maybe I will make some before we leave and freeze them.

Wait. You have Carrie Underwood on Wed, Hobbit on Thurs and then leave for Disney Friday morning???

I think I misspoke when I told you earlier...Carrie Underwood is Tuesday evening. Abby has her last final on Wednesday afternoon, then I'll drive her back to Cleveland. Thursday we're seeing a Monsters (AHL) hockey game at 7:30PM, seeing the midnight showing of The Hobbit, heading to my house for a few hours before leaving for the airport at 6:15AM.

I've already started planting the seed that I'd like to sleep on the airplane, but Abby says she's gonna keep poking me, asking "are we there yet?"

But January is going to be so boring!!

I know! We're trying to squeeze in as much as we can before she heads back to Columbus for spring semester classes, because I'm taking 18 credit hours in the spring and she's taking 17 credit hours, so who knows how often we'll see each other.

The only thing we have set in stone after we get back from WDW is attending a a wedding. The friend who introduced us is getting married the last weekend of December, and we're going together to the wedding. After that, who know.

 

[taaren]

No worries. . I would just like to know!!!!! Either way, I am going to Disney.

The suspense would be killing me! You and Tltorrez are in the same boat though. Two plans, no answers yet ...

Gandalf is , but Aragorn would be awesome. I'm kind of that way when it comes to Star Wars. I would like to name a child Luke, or maybe Lucius. That way they would blend in at least ... not so much with Padme or Leia. Maybe Mara Jade.
