I was on the phone ordering a cake so I asked when EE is closed for rehab I was told Primevil Whirl is still not finished so they are pushing back the refurb of EE to later october! We are safe!

Oh, I hope that's true. I was thinking about skipping that park altogether if EE was closed. (Though I do love the safari ride).

I just printed my crowd calenders. I'm hoping they are final now. But I did notice HS is in red the day we were going to head there. We only have one adr for 10 days to work around. So I'm thinking of switching it around. Not sure but during the week they are all 3's. I'm going to go look at the hours maybe that will give me some ideas to work with. The entire fantasmic thing is playing with my mind.

I wouldn't worry about it. We have been to HS on red days and it has been fine and we go in the middle of he summer usually. Fantasmic draws more people but I don't think it's anything you need to worry about.

45 days!!!!!!! Sorry, had to share my excitement somewhere Our trip was paid off a few weeks ago, stroller reserved - all thats left is to pre-order photopass, our little disney florist surprise, and book a hotel on the way down! Well, and lots of little planning, lists, make/alter costumes, autograph books, etc. I can't wait!!!! I figure maybe if I procrastinate on all to do a little more it will make the time pass more quickly

Yay 45 days!

It's AUGUST!!! Woo hoo!!! We're going to WDW next month

Seriously - I can't stand that I am nearly out of things to do. Time to focus on the costumes

DD-12 wants to be Sally and we have started sewing a costume. I have decided to be Q of Hearts and am still getting ideas together before I start putting anything together.

I just checked the crowd reports at easywdw and I cannot figure out the rationale. On the 25th it says all parks are green, but on the 30th DHS is red and epcot green. I had figured that Epcot would be more busy cause they start F&W then right? And why is DHS red? If it was because of fantasmic shouldn't it be red on Sunday too?

I wouldn't worry about it too much. We went to DHS on Saturday and it was listed as the park to avoid. We were surprised, it wasn't bad at all, and it's July! I even ended up being able to get a 4:05pm resie for Sci-Fi at 1pm the same day. The restaurant wasn't full. TSM of course was crowded, but that was the only area. I guess people read it was the park to avoid, so they did, making it great for those of us who didn't avoid it!

I just love that we're going to Disney next month! Makes it seem that much closer!

43 days for us!

On the flip side, I cannot believe back to school is almost here already Where did the time go?! I love having the girls home everday and having a more relaxed schedule.

Still, so excited that we're getting so close to our vacation!

Yeah it doesn't make any sense to me either. I would have thought the same thing about Epcot. I knew it wouldn't be AK or MK as they both close early that night, but you wouldn't think that Fantasmic would make that much of a difference.

yeah disney trip next month

 

[RFrank9504]

5 weeks from tomorrow!

 

[L-Harper]

I happy danced over on the POP site and I am going to do it here too.

Next month we are all going to WDW!!!

Feel free to join in!

We leave for Disney THIS month! Yikes!!

Here is a picture of the new (still holographic) luggage tags:

Thank you for posting this! It made me remember that I needed to ask if we were getting 3 or 4 tags since our youngest son is only 2.

The same thing happened to us. Sent them a message on etsy a week or so ago and they came this weekend. We may contact them and see if they can make them bigger.(For a larger fee I'm sure.)

The Etsy seller is actually a friend of mine and she just had a baby recently. I'm sure that it was mommy brain that was the cause of them being a bit late. I'm sorry about that. I also know that she only has a 1-inch button maker though.

I am making a garland/banner of the lime green Mickey heads from Home Depot for our window at Pop and I'm going to write L - H A R P E R across the middle of them.

We are GOING TO DISNEY NEXT MONTH!!!!! Finally, I have been so excited and I can finally say next month. Said it all day yesterday. Hubby looked at me like I was nuts. Oh well, I'm going to Disney World in 48 days. We are celebrating my 45th birthday and our 17th weddining anniversary. Been a very rough year for us, load of medical issues 7 months worth. But everything is looking great and we are finally a month away. (well 48 days) but you guys understand.

Our First this year
CBR (I prefer the ASM, but her's taking me again so I'll stay here)
Deluxe Dinning Plan
Dessert Party (finally got this)
Bass Fishing
Golf
Carridge Ride

We'll be doing MNSSHP second time (hubby made me miss fireworks last time)

Well, I'm already to excited to sleep.

You should be getting 3 tags, since children under three aren't included in most of the reservation information (so don't worry when you get your Mickey Mail). Your child's name should be listed once at the beginning of the packet you receive. Then throughout the rest of the packet--room counts, dining counts, everything else--will show as a family of 3.

If anyone has been procrastinating like me and still need to get some t-shirts done for your trip, JoAnn's has their Jerzees t-shirts and tank tops 3 for $9 this week. I have the most awesome designs to iron on that I got here on the DIS from Shadowryter. If I can figure out how to do it, I'll post the finished products.
