Good morning Snowbirds! I hope everyone is surviving the wild weather alright. It's chilly and gray here, but thankfully nothing falling from the sky.
I've been keeping up with my DIS reading, but haven't posted much recently. Add me to the list of Birdies in a Disney funk!
One day last week I realized that it was two years ago that day that we had last left WDW. And we don't know when we'll be back. 
But...we do have our park tickets! 
Yep, we had bought tickets for our Jan 09 trip back in the summer of '08, before the price increase. But then they announced the military ticket deal, so we went with that. So we've got four 7-day park hoppers (3 adult and 1 child) just waiting to be used. Thinking about that cheers me up a little! 
DD is not at all potty trained. (stick with me, this will be Disney-related!) The other day I mentioned that when my sister was trying to get her youngest potty trained, she told her daughter that they couldn't go to Disneyland until she was done with diapers. That inspired my niece very swiftly! Good thing, too, because the trip was already planned.
Anyway, my DS10 siezed on that story, and has been encouraging DD to use the potty so we can go to Disneyland Paris. 
We've been talking about it but don't have any particular timeframe in mind. But apparently we're going once DD is out of diapers!
We were also talking the other day about the possibility of DH deploying to Afghanistan, probably a year from now for six months. (no idea how likely or not it is, but it's a possibility) I mentioned to the kids that if he went there, we would probably all get annual passes to DLP, because that is somewhere I would take the kids without DH. (not that he doesn't like to go, but we've all been there so he wouldn't be missing out on something new if we went without him...plus it's somewhere that I would feel comfortable going without him) That made the idea of DH being gone a little more palatable to the kids (OK, and me ) So we'll see what the future holds.
Sarah, I hope you don't have any trouble getting on your way, and have a FABULOUS trip! Can't wait to hear all about it!
We are looking very seriously at a Baltic cruise this August, but the price is just killing me (especially when I think of how many WEEKS at WDW it would cover!). Please tell me it would be so worth it!
Have a happy Disney day, everyone!

I started with a migraine yesterday but was able to fight it off with excedrine thankfully. I don't think I'm stressed but then my body lets me know that I am. I need a trip to Disney!!!!!!!
We love the South of the Border signs on the way down but they annoy the heck out of me on the way back! 
Can't wait to hear your trip details when you're ready.
