What a great PTR! We will be in the world at the same time! I must say you look more packed then us!

Does anyone pack like that a full week for vacation anywhere except WDW? My DH complains every trip because I already have a full suitcase weeks before.

Love the pics on the beach. Not long now.

Oh I know you're right about the packing. I'm only doing it because it's disney and they take care of the bags for you. Otherwise I pack very light.

Yikes! I can't believe 2000 was so long ago now. We thought we were so cool getting married in the new millennium. WoW! We didn't even have digital photography back then. I carried around rolls of film.

I just got the scanner working again. I've been dying to put these up here. I love that all my shirts are tucked in. I can't tell you the last time I tucked a shirt in

Wedding Pic...June 3, 2000

I still have that skirt...it's one of my favorite things and I got it at the poly.

I've not said too much about the reason we're able to go on this trip this year...
Grandma & Grandpa.

We love them very much and they spoil all 3 of us all the time. They are very loving and generous. They gave us this trip for Christmas this year and as I was planning I kept thinking how great it would be for them to see Lindsey enjoy all this. So I said something to MIL and days later she said they were coming for 3 days of our trip. I am so happy they get to see Lindsey in the Boutique and at the castle with Cinderella.

This is a little video montage of Grandma & Grandpa with their prized and ONLY grandchild.

Today at a park I was practicing my picture taking of dd and some birds.

I still have a lot of learning to do with this camera. I expect to get some great pics in Disney, but I just don't know the right setting for every situation. I don't know how to adjust for light either. I have a Cannon Powershot S5 IS

6 days today...This time next week we'll be heading back to the Poly after Animal Kindgom for our O'Hana dinner.

This week better go fast. I'm also waiting on the birth of a good friend's 3rd child. Her scheduled C-section is on Friday so I'll definitely know what she had by the time I leave. I have to buy the baby something from disney.

Hmmmm my touch of Mickey today was a trip though the disney store. I bought an Alice headband to go with dd's dress from last year. She'll wear it at the world when she meets Alice.

I am weather worried today...Hurricane Gustav will hit Orlando this Saturday. Pray it will pass quickly for our trip

Thanks everyone for subbing

[the4princesses]

I seem to be talking to myself here for a few days, but oh well.

I am weather worried today...Hurricane Gustav will hit

Hi I know what you mean we are flying out Sept 3 at 6:10 am and praying that the storm will have passed by then!!!
we will be at POP Sept. 3-10th!!

What are your dates?
Do you have free dining?
We do.

 

[jmskinner]

I'm here, just havn't responded. Plus, it drives me nuts that I don't get notices for all postings when I subscribe.

I think you may have dodged a bullet. Looks like Gustav is heading into the Gulf, so you have it clear for a few days.

 

[Mom2Lindsey]

My dates are aug 31st- sept 6th

I hope we've dodged a bullet. I didn't even think about this possibility before although I knew it was hurricane season.

I usually have to check at the bottom that I want email notification when I subscribe.

Thanks for subscribing

I hope we both have dodged that bullet... since my days are almost identical... we just leave a day before you..

I also notice that even though I subscribe to with email notification that many times I will actually read a post before the email even comes.

 

[heath-and-javens-mom]

awww- I LOVE your PTR! YOur DD is absoluty beautiful, and I love all your goodies!! You are very talented.
We will be going to WDW during the same dates: Aug 30th -Sept 6th at WL!

Hopefully we will run into each other!

 

[Mom2Lindsey]

Awwww I'm so excited to "know" specifically some of you that will be there at the same time. I will be so psyched to see LGMHs.

I'm planning on getting on every night after dd crashes and do a trip report. I know I will be putting the days pictures on dh's computer at least. But I'll check in.

My ticker says 4 days 17 hours 42 minutes... I can't stand it

 

[jewjubean]
