Yeah, that would probably be the best suggestion I could come up with. I don't know if they will sell movies that have been locked back in the Disney vault through DMA or not, but it is worth a try. I hope you can manage to find it somewhere. If you were closer I'd offer to let you borrow our DVD![/URL]
Thanks
Thanks to your suggestion, I did check it out but you couldn't buy or rent it
Thanks, nothing like some last minute scores.

Thanks, unfortunately, I couldn't buy it. I get the vault thing but why can't it be rented
?
Do you have a library around with DVDs? That's the only thing I can think of.
Great Mickey ears and Magic Bands!
Glad you were also able to take advantage of the shows moving to Tier 2!
Sorry you can't find Snow White.
Oh, random thing, but I think it was you that was looking for ways to keep the kids amused while in line. I remembered the other day that I've heard pipe cleaners are fascinating to young kids, so I think I'm going to try brining some to make things out of. Just thought I'd pass it along.
. I guess people break the discs and then the places can't replace them because they're in the vault 
. Thanks for the pipe cleaner idea. I think I may have some laying around from a craft I did awhile ago.
I'm doing the single digit dance!
Nothing else to report really. Printed out all my documents and now I am just twiddling my thumbs until it is time to pack. I am grateful for the reprieve from planning though.
(Not quite the right smiley for what my week has been like but feels appropriate just the same! 
)
ThanksIt will be here fast! Have a great time.
And I love the dancing C-3PO.
Definitely, only way to beat the post Disney blues.
Thanks, me too.Hi Ashley! Finally caught up. I enjoyed reading about all your plans. I love that you're being so flexible to make it easier on the boys. I hope that they surprise you and handle it better than you expect.
Thanks, I hadn't thought about it, I will check out Once Upon a Baby tomorrow to see if I can get a decent priced one. I will put out an SOS on FB to see if I can find Snow White. Thanks for the suggestions.
You definitely, made me realize not to complain about nothing to do and I think the smiley works.
Yay for single Digits! Enjoy the reprieve! I have learned this week that its not nice when things get unexpectedly busy right before the trip. No matter how much faster it makes time go!
. Feeling restless with not much to do I decided to make some more things for the trip 
. 
. So, I send them back and get the next size down, got them on Tuesday, and still too big 
. Again, I have to send them back for now a whole full size difference than what I normally wear and this time have to pay extra shipping to make sure they get here in time. See, I would have just gone to the store to try some on so I didn't have to keep ordering but with only a Walmart here, I didn't have that option. But, I got the new size in yesterday and they are AMAZING 
. It is like what I would imagine walking on a cloud would feel like. In the end, they were totally worth the hassle. 
. Nothing like a free toy that also will get the boys excited for the trip. Tomorrow is also my big packing day. This is DH's last day off before we leave so, I will be packing early because the boys levels of neediness varies day to day and knowing my luck they won't give me a chance to pack next week. 
. I only have a short window where we can do this so I am hoping I am successful at securing an ADR. Thankfully, I will have my TA on it as well which will up my chances. That's all I have for now 
Thanks, I am really excited. I hope it works out because I really want to go even if it is to do those two things.
Thanks, I thought it was a nice touch to show the CMs how much we appreciate their hard work. The shoes are awesome just be careful about sizingLove the cards and envelopes! 1 week to go! How exciting!
Your post had me googling those shoes. I'd never heard of them and I think I might know what I want to use my DSW coupon on.
I am so glad you got it. It was nice talking to you yesterday. I was nervous about your post about the shoes because I need arch support for my super high arches but, I think my feet just kinda sink into them and it works. We will see how they hold up touring, I have my super awesome Nikes to use as well so we'll see.

. My mom thought I was crazy packing so early bu,t this is why I did it and that was without any distraction from the boys. I still have to add things and pack our bags for the Chicago portion of the trip but I am feeling pretty good about it. so, back to sleep I went to wait until 7. I checked the DISboards first and people we reporting that it was still going to be a walk up. One person was able to book however. I called right away and waited 30 minutes. The one good thing was I could listen to Disney music while getting Connor ready for school. After 30 minutes I got a CM who wouldn't even check and told me no. I had to get Connor to school so I went about my business all the while checking DISboards every thirty seconds . I decided to call back when I got home and as I am waiting people are reporting that phone CMs just got the go ahead to book. But, when my CM got on I was once again told no 
. So I did what any good Diser does and hung up and called right back. Third time was it because I finally got a good CM. She couldn't find anything right away and told me she wouldn't give up. At the same time I was emailing my TA to see if you would have better luck. My CM checked every time slot starting at 4pm and the system was having "enhancements" and going very slow. She finally found something at 7. This was much later than I was hoping for but I took it. Everyone on the DIS was reporting getting 4 time slots which was what I needed but at least now I had a reservation. I waited all day to hear from my TA and finally got the email at 3 that she was able to get us a 4:20 reservation 
. I am super excite about this new experience and to try the yummy food. Here is what I am thinking about getting:
. I didn't actually get any housework done yesterday but, I did start playing a fun game. Its called, this time next week. To play you just look at the time and say this time next week I will be doing XYZ. For example, this time next week we will be at Epcot enjoying the Seas with Nemo and friends . Its a really good way to avoid doing housework . 
. This is counts right? James threw up this morning which worries me
. He seems fine now but if this is a tummy bug that circulates through the kids we will have a problem. Okay, I am going to do some work for real this time

That is awesome. I always love it when it works out that you can get a trip or 2 in sooner than expected. I'm always looking for a reason to go, but when something actually does come together it is the best feeling in the world.Wait what did I just say? How is it possible that this is happening. The Magicbands coming made this trip feel real but, now I am back to feeling like this is surreal. See, when we went on our first family trip in Feb 2014 we left knowing that we wouldn't be back until Sept 2016, two and a half years later. And now, here I am going on my second trip this year. Can someone pinch me because I think I am dreaming
I'm glad it all worked out eventually. Sorry for the hassle to get them though.But, I got the new size in yesterday and they are AMAZING
Toys R Us is just like Disney. They know how to separate parents from their money.We had to wait in a huge line to get our pieces and they also got a comic book. It was actually really nice and free so, that's always good. Actually, not free since they used their Jedi mind tricks to get me to buy Star Wars stuff
I'm glad you were able to book it! Good thing you had your TA working with you too so you could get a better time! The menu looks awesome.Third time was it because I finally got a good CM. She couldn't find anything right away and told me she wouldn't give up. At the same time I was emailing my TA to see if you would have better luck.

Good! Always entertaining to watch the younger kids play. Never know what's going to happen.

Just be careful. I always like to think about that a week before our trip too. You know, like a week from now, probably about this time I'll be riding BTMRR.I didn't actually get any housework done yesterday but, I did start playing a fun game. Its called, this time next week. To play you just look at the time and say this time next week I will be doing XYZ. For example, this time next week we will be at Epcot enjoying the Seas with Nemo and friends
Ugh... definitely feel your pain. I really hope it is nothing and everyone is doing well and ready to go! [/URL][/URL][/URL][/URL][/URL][URL='https://flic.kr/p/stGJwz']James threw up this morning which worries me
Definitely, I will text you once we get down there
. It really is, I still can't believe how this all worked out.
No problem, at least they were worth it.
They really do huh?Toys R Us is just like Disney. They know how to separate parents from their money.
I know I am so excited. We are one of the first reservations on the first day which is exciting but also terrifying considering how Disney lieks to roll stuff out
It is, they are great fun to watch.Good! Always entertaining to watch the younger kids play. Never know what's going to happen.
Me too.
Usually, I am too busy to think that way during a trip. The week after however the game is not as fun. "This time last week we were doing XYZBut just make sure you stop playing that game before you leave. You don't want to be getting off BTMRR and thinking a week from now...
"Oh it was something but I think everyone is good now.
