thanks so much, guys! i feel so loved! hopefully you won't have to wait too long.
We're all pulling for you. We'll have a cyber-shower around here when the time is right!
A little Dis break over the holidays and it's taken me a week to catch up! Should have made a quick post there and than when I realised how many pages I had to get through
Enjoying the report, especially love catching up with your Brooklyn/Bella pics and news, as I can't help but compare them to my two little

6 months and 2.5 yrs. Oh yes, and comparing myself to Jill when I see photos of her carrying them both at once, or trying to jump in and stop the big girl dropping the little girl on the floor whilst they pose for more photos
Wish there could be a mega meet that stretched as far as us in the UK but maybe we'll catch up with some of you in WDW. We're booked for September
Aren't little girls awesome? Little boys, too.

I do love little kids. They bring us much happiness.
Yeah, you are way over five hours away!
What are your dates for September? If they offer free dining I was thinking about a long weekend trip since we have our annual passes it would just be the cost of travel and the rooms. We might try and overlap your time if we do decide to go.
Is this along with a Mall of America trip? You must have a bundle of money, girlie!
We're there a whole two weeks

, arriving on the 3rd Sept and leaving on the evening of the 17th
Hope you can work out another trip, would be even better if our dates overlap and we can arrange a meet
Two weeks will be nice.
They have really changed the way they do free dining - but if you are able to go you can use the one day ticket you have to purchase (with the free dining package) to renew your AP. This was the first year we didn't book the bounceback free dining - I just wasn't sure I liked the changes. It's not such a good deal when you have to book a moderate to get the regular dining plan. We usually go in September and it is a great month to go!! The AP rates are great for a room only package!
September is pretty much out for me, with it being the beginning of the school year. Early October is about the best I can do, but I love October in Disney World, so that works for me. Jill can go whenever work lets her off until Brooklynn starts school.
I think I am back on track. And, Margot is your adorable niece, right? That is so neat that you and Erica met on the Dis. That is great that you and your DH are trying to get pregnant (although I know how it can get stressful) - my sister took one year to get pregnant with her first, but then her next two she got pregnant fast and easy. I will keep you all in my prayers.
And Margot and Bella were born within a week or so of each other.
I am finally caught up. Every time I catch up and stay caught up for a couple of days and then life gets busy again and I get behind all over again.
I am only 6 hours away from the Mall.
Darn real life. It is so annoying sometime.
Are you willing to travel that far for a meet?
I do!


I live about 40 minutes away from it! We take our kids there to see Santa every year- he is awesome! I would love to see a dismeet happen in my area!
Jill is talking about an October trip up there.
I'm not too far, about 4 hours or so. I'd drive that far to meet you all!
There could be a big meet brewing as we speak.
I just saw a post on the Disney Storey Facebook page that has a list of the stores closing. The Cool Springs store is on the list as well as the Opry Mills store.
You shall forever be known as the person who officially broke my heart!

Now I really don't know where the closest one is. Memphis, I guess. The Opry Mills store was giving coupons for the Cool Springs store, and they said some of them were going out there to work, so I wonder when it is closing.
Don't worry, I'm pretty good at balancing fun and school

I had the first part of my Spanish exam today and that went really well
Wish me luck on my economics presentation tomorrow...I hate oral presentations
I can't belive we're almost half way through the school year already

I only have another year and a half left of high school
Good luck for you.
Have you thought about doing the College Program at WDW?
We are approx 1,270 miles from Mall of America......20 hours driving time. I think if I told DH that we are all getting in the car for 20 hours to go to a DIs meet- he would think I was insane...then if I threw in the fact that it was at a Mall....the MALL to end all MALLS he would consider that grounds for divorce!
My DS on the other hand has been begging me to take him to Mall of America and I would truly love to go myself but cant fathom driving 20 hours anywhere ( well maybe I can think of one place

) so with that I will have to wait until the sun, the moon and the start align- that should be about the time that DH says we can go back to Disney and hopefully be at the same time to have a wonderful dis-meet with all of y'all!
Whoa! 'Up north' must be a really big place!

When I think about all of you guys up above us, I just think of you all being with eight or ten hours of each other, but I guess I didn't give it much thought. I guess there is no good central location, huh?
Okay, then, you are all just invited to stop here on your way to Disney World whenever you are coming through.
I just looked it up...23 hours

It takes less time to get to Disney from here
Wowser!
Yeah & I'm in NH so I am even further!! Not even close.
My goodness, this is a big country!
