SOOZE 10 year Anniversary Getaway.. All DONE!

[Sooze]

u r welcome. it is a really nice bag. I like the design u had put on. How exciting almost the teens.

The excitement is growing more quickly now! I'm sure you're about to burst with it!

Thank you Sooze...yes, we usually make a trip to Avon at least every 2-3 weeks...not much here in Greencastle anymore.

I sure hope you are right about finding time for a couples only trip myself sometime soon...I know, I should not complain...I am right there with you about having my heart ripped out over my babies growing up too fast...my oldest daughter will be turning 15 on Monday ...although going through the teenage years with a daughter is about to turn me completely gray at 36 and I still have one more girl (a pre-teen)...by the time I am 40 I am not sure if I will have any hair left!

Well, enough about my family drama...have a great time...I cannot wait to read your TR when you return...Eat something good for me...I love to eat at WDW TS restaurants...it is so much fun & YUM!!

I'm already having panic attacks about my little girl being a teen.. I was one once.. and I can't imagine being on the "mom" side of things!!

Maybe we can have a DIS meet in Avon! Plenty of places to choose from, eh? When we moved here 11 years ago, there was a McDonald's and a Wendy's and a family owned restaurant named "The Oven".. holy cow have things changed!

That bag is SO cool, do they have a choice of colors? About how much do they run? Thanks for posting a pic of it, cool bag!!! I PM'd you about the postcards, very generous of you.
Yes, I agree, the Lord works in wonderful ways and there was a reason you weren't there in that cold weather!!!!

I paid $26 for it with shipping. I didn't have any sales, discounts, coupons, free shipping, so I think it was kinda expensive. ( I think Scott got his for $11?) But worth every penny.. I think I will use it at Disney until the straps fall off!

They had TONS of colors and every character imaginable.. well, not EVERY.. but lots! You could also choose between script or block letters. The blue I chose is VERY bright in person.. it didn't look that bright online.. but I'll take it!

I love the bag, I'm really going to look at Disneyshopping nearer to our trip and have stuff sent to our resort

 

[TKDisneylover]

Your in the teens today, time to do the Happy Dance!!!

I love your bag with your Dis screen name on it, and the color is my fav. Good luck with that packing, I know I waited too long and was scrambling at the last minute. It makes for so much less stress when your prepared!

Love the bag (Scott has such great ideas! ) and its colour.
Had to laugh at your putting things in the spare room - I have a drawer in the spare room where I have hidden stuff from DS, since he won't be going this trip.
I have also PMed re postcards.

Thank you, I think so too.

Seriously I just want my cousins trip to be magical and I think these bags will help or at least help me not carry there stuff.

That's a good idea.. I never thought of having stuff delivered to the resort.. hmmm... maybe having a new shirt for DH waiting at the Front Desk when we arrive.. hmmmmmm.....

I'm SO doing the Happy Dance Not sure what I'll do when it gets to the single digits.. they might have to take me away in an ambulance like Britney Spears! Just Kidding, people!!

I love the bag too.. and Sooze is not only my Dis name.. it has been my nickname with most of my friends since college..so I thought I'd go ahead and put it on my bag!

I'm hoping to really pack ahead of time. Can't wait until they start posting the 10 day forcast on weather.com so I can really start thinking about what to bring!

Gotta love those spare rooms! And my kids are still too young to go snooping, so the spare room works perfectly! I'll be in trouble once they figure the snoop-factor out!

Thank you, I think so too.

I just can't wait to read all about your trip and how you make some dreams come true for your cousins! It will be so much fun to see!

I only said that as to post it here is ridiculous in postage costs

I use this site for weather when we go to WDW http://www.accuweather.com/forecast...er&traveler=1&zipChg=1&zipcode=32801&metric=0

it forecasts the orlando weather for 15 days out and has been very accurate when I have used it...hope it helps you...by-the-way, I would love to do a DIS meet in Avon one day!

Sooze, this is the one that I used too and it was very accurate!

Hey Sooze,

Have you heard anything from Coral Reef again? I sent all my "stuff" to Debbi through email and haven't heard anything back again. I sent it first during a weekend and got her "away message". Then I didn't hear from her for the first half of that week so I thought maybe she didn't get it and I should send it again so I did. That was on the 1st. So, now another week has passed. Not sure what to do next. Just wondering if you turned in your pictures and idea's and if you've received a call back or email back in reference to that yet.

I just FINALLY emailed all of my stuf to Reginald about 5 minutes ago! It took me awhile because I had to scan a few things. I'll let you know if I hear anything... have you tried just emailing her and asking if she received your "stuff"? Not sure if she'll reply, but I would think she'd give you a response. Give it a try and let me know what happens!

How awesome! 15 days out?!! That means in just a FEW short days, I can start checking on the weather for our trip!! Thanks SO Much for the link. I already added it to my favs

thanks for the info. My weather for the first 3 days does not look too bad. high 70's and on Monday the 21st thunderstorms. my first DHS day.

Well, hopefully, since it's still 15 days away, that'll change to sunny skies! We can hope!

Ahh, yes but this is the south. The weather changes by the minute down here. The forcast from this morning for the whole day may not be the same as the forcast at noon. That can work against you but it can also work for you sometimes too.

I think I will give her a few more days and then email her on Thursday or Friday. I'm sure she's busy. I don't want to seem like I'm hounding her but I also don't want her to forget about me.

I love this site...I have it bookmarked too...I use it for my forecast at home as well.

You're welcome scottny! I hope the outlook changes for that forecasted day of nasty thunderstorms...if not to beautiful and sunny at least to light showers...at least with that you know the parks will have light attendance....HAVE FUN and EAT MUCH!!

My first day is finally up! It looks perfect, of course.. but I've noticed that the closer you get to the acutal date, the rainier the weather seems... I'll keep hoping!

Have you heard anything? I got the same "out of office" reply from Reginald and haven't heard anything back, either... wondering if I should email or call him to double check as well...

I love this site...I have it bookmarked too...I use it for my forecast at home as well.

I've been checking it every day.. and now my first day is UP!!! YEAHOO!!!!

You're welcome scottny! I hope the outlook changes for that forecasted day of nasty thunderstorms...if not to beautiful and sunny at least to light showers...at least with that you know the parks will have light attendance....HAVE FUN and EAT MUCH!!

Good thought... wet weather=low crowds...

Two weeks to go! WooooHoooo! It'll be here before you know it!

Have a great weekend!
