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

[mom2travel]

Well....I had a rough two weeks...totaled my car and had to get a new one...but...84 days til I'm in Disney with my mom and sister!!!!

Ugh! Sorry to hear it. I was rear-ended a couple months ago causing extensive damage. It took 5 weeks to get my car back - almost would have been better if it was just totaled. I'm assuming physically you are fine?
I'm with you that thinking about my upcoming Disney trip helped when dealing with all the car nonsense

Word. Playing with my ADRs is my hobby now Still trying to work things out to have the perfectly planned reservations.

I still can't believe I booked the DP!

Psshh tell me about it. I still haven't found an CP package for the 6:45 or 8 show with Teppan Edo.

I did it last year with DD. To pick the pearl is eaither 14.99 or 19.99 - can't remember which. It was cute, the CMs made a big deal over her, she really enjoyed it. They taught her how to bow and count down in Japanese while they were opening the oyster. The oyster DD picked had twins!

My DD has done it also (once w me and once w her cousin) - the first time she picked twins and chose matching pendants for the two of us

It's a fun thing to do and your souvenir can be worn again and again

How fun! I'm planning to take DD9 to PAP also. I bought her the Ebay carriage with 2 extras for her bffs.

Um...... Yes. Why yes it is. I was actually able to move LC to 1:30pm from the original 2:25 time slot so I ought to be GOOD and hungry by 4:45 for BOG, don't ya think?

I can't help but wonder if we should split the TS meals for lunch and dinner.....or maybe just dinner. I'm not sure I want to share my filet with mushroom risotto. Or maybe we'll just get appetizers at BOG and save a table service? Or maybe I can get a BOG reservation for the day before like I originally wanted on 12-11-12, our MVMCP night. I still can't believe i was on the phone that very first moment ressies became available for BOG and I still didn't get the day I wanted. I think I'll need to go shopping for lots of stretchy pants.

And yes, Wishes is at 8pm that night, 12/12/12

Oh boy, I better get on the ball with my weight loss or else I'm gonna really pay for it by the time December rolls around, which hopefully will be here in no time.

[rubybpc]

Congrats to those who got dessert party ressies. I didn't make any because I just know I would get sick trying to get my money's worth!

Any suggestions on what to do/where to go on a free day in Florida? We will have a car so I don't mind driving no more than 2 hours away from DW. Appreciate any suggestions!

On our off days we're considering Gatorland and a Spirit of the Swamp airboat ride, since we wanted something Florida-ey, that we couldn't do in the West.

Just saw this thread about Test Track. It could all be a crock, but it could be true too.

Very cool, it would be nice if it re-opened before we get there so they have all the bugs of the update (is it an update?) worked out. Since its scheduled to open Nov 30, us December Roll Callers are mostly safe to ride it, right?

Well....I had a rough two weeks...totaled my car and had to get a new one...but...84 days til I'm in Disney with my mom and sister!!!!

Oh no! Hopefully insurance worked out well? Glad it didn't ruin your trip plans!

So jealous of everybody's Wishes Dessert Party ADRs! I really want to book it, and think I could even find room in the budget and justify it since we're dessert fiends ... but there's only 2 nights it would fit into the schedule (which are both miraculously available), on the 3rd but then we'd have to miss the Electrical Light Parade, or on the 10th we already have a Whispering Canyon ADR I'd rather not move up into our nap time and its also a 2nd chance at the ELP ... the third would be perfect since its our best friend's 40th birthday ... hmm ... maybe if I stall long enough on deciding it won't be available anymore and the choice will be made for me.

We do pick a pearl every trip! It's addicting! With tax it's about $17. I have a silver ring that has small diamonds on either side that was $80. Earring posts are $10 for silver and $20 for gold. I got a dangly necklace that has 2 hearts a rhinestone and then the pearl, very very pretty for $27( pendant only) I have a gold pendant that was $45. Got a cute twin dog pin for my mom where the collars are rhinestone and then the pearl for $20

Agreed - or Iwould have to eat everything so it doesn't go to waste (or waist)

 

[molitva]

Haha!



12/17
hang out at Hollywood Studios!
Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater at 1:55pm
head to MK
The Wave at 7:50pm for dessert
Monorail Bar Crawl
watch Wishes from the Poly

We have a sci-fi ressie that day at 12:45. I'll try to save some milkshakes for you

I started reading your post and thought do they have those??? And then I got to the bathroom one. I do need a new Fantasyland one though. Dumbo is cute, although I havent seen the movie in years because it is so sad. Yes, I have issues. Hmm...maybe a Beauty and the Beast shirt. My shirts are heavy on Mickey and Minnie, which is weird because Goofy was always my favorite.

I just had a discussion with DBF about watching Dumbo before our trip. He agrees, it's too sad to watch. I vaguely remember the movie.

Just saw this thread about Test Track. It could all be a crock, but it could be true too.

I choose to believe the rumors that best suit my personal preference. This is good news!!

Morning everyone!!!

Goooooood morning. Why isn't it Friday? For the past 6 months I haven't had to come into the office to work on Fridays (work from home). Which meant Thursday kinda felt like a Friday. Starting this week I'm back to working in the office on Friday. It's such a bummer. What an unbelieveably long week.

 

[mom2travel]

Good morning!

Today marks 9 weeks to WDW for us

So I complained that my iPhone was a dumbphone since the last update.... Well apple fixed it!! Yay and our tech reminded me of Ben Wyatt from parks and rec. So on my excursion out last night we stopped at the Disney outlet- I got fantastic deals and Disneyparks merch!
