I am so happy to hear that you got the Star Wars fabric, and am anxious to see what you make with it!
I am excited to see the Mickey Mail, but please don't feel like you have to.
Hope you had fun at your Bunco game... I've tried, but I've never been able to get into it.
Disney Parks DVD review:
Honestly.... I watched the first 30 minutes of each chapter, and there wasn't anything earth shattering in there, that I didn't already know from The Dis or elsewhere. However, if you were planning a trip to one of the parks, you didn't do your research and didn't know a thing about Disney, you could probably learn a thing or two from it. I was disappointed, glad someone loaned me the DVD and I didn't buy it. Basically, it was one of the free movies about the resorts that you can get from Disney - except it was less magical because it was done by a 3rd party. So, if you are dying to see it - rent it.
I am also anxious to dig into the books that were loaned to me, I browsed the first chapter of one last night, and I am afraid it will be the same thing... For instance, the book tells you... Beware of the spitting camels on The Magic Carpets of Aladdin, and find the paintbrush hidden on Tom Sawyer Island... All of this is basic knowledge if you research your trips, so hopefully it gets better?
Plans for today:
1. Finish my current bag (it isn't the UP bag) it's an ordered bag.
2. Call Disney and pay off our trip, also verify the price to add 8 more days of tickets.
3. Post pictures of above said bag.
4. Work some more on the UP bag.
5. Also, maybe, do some work on the little project I keep telling you about - but I keep putting it on the back burner to work on other things, it's important that I finish it before our trip.

The Star Wars fabric is going to become "walking pants" and an embellished t-shirt. I'd tell you I'm making pajamas, but we all know Finn will say they're walking pants so he can try to sneak in a day at school with them on
I'm hoping I have enough to make at least one pillowcase, if not two. . . Poor Finn likes the classic Star Wars saga and Phalen likes the Clone Wars, but the Star Wars sheets from Walmart are reversed - P has the classic saga sheets on his twin bed and Finn has the Clone Wars sheets on his full bed. If anyone ever sees the classic saga sheets in full size at their walmart, PLEASE let me know!!! Mickey Mail - girl, I've had this idea in my head since you said you were going . . . so unless you want me to turn into a crazy person who has one idea and one idea only, this Mickey Mail is getting made this weekend
Bunco - We always have to warn newbies that we don't play BUNCO the "real" way because we have our own easy way of playing. We used to have a "start" time of 7:00pm . . .which is now 8:00pm... which means we might start playing by 8:30 . . . we finished at about 10 last night and I didn't get home until midnight . . . it's really just an excuse for a couple of drinks and LOTS of crazy talk - you'd have a great time
Too bad MN is just too far from NC for a night out 
The Disney Parks dvds are, THANKFULLY, on Netflix streaming. Finn watched it almost daily for a month or so before our trip. . . some days he'd switch it up and watch the DisneyLAND version . . . talk about confusing to a 3 year old!
I bought a woven one
I need to upload the pics I took (and messaged to Michelle FROM Jo-Ann's) so y'all can see the choices. I'm hoping they get a couple more fleece on bolts choices. . . they only had one and then two different fleece throw kits.
Up bag, here I come...
