Mel, I don't use it either, but I was running out of options...and it worked!

V, sounds great, and I don't care which way you go with it.

I got the spreadsheet no problem, but I have a trial of Office 2007 running (though it expired, I'm buying it, and it still let me open it up.)

 

[PrincessV]

V- That is a great idea and I do not care which form you use. I would think that public would be a lot easier and I think there is little danger in this.

I negelected to say that, if we do it Public, I WILL NOT use anyone's real names, or even DIS names, if you'd all prefer.

I was able to open it by opening the email in Outlook first, then opening the spreadsheet in Excel.

That'a exactly what mine did, only all on its own! I just kept saying "okay" and eventually it opened.

 

[dreamn_Disney]

Mel - It has been sent out.

I had to just download a program that converted it to my older version. I then cleaned it up a bit since it did not transfer perfect. It was much easier than trying to organize everyones schedules myself.

 

[DisneyJo]

If not you can have it shipped here and I could bring it along with me!

I was gonna say send it here, but Mo beat me to it.

I should think so, but if not you're welcome to ship it to me and I'll get it to you. I think I may be one of the last to leave home, no?

Awww you're all so sweet, not sure if we're going to get it though

V I'll go along with whatever!

 

[KatGarcia]

V- I LOVE the idea!!!!

Kat thanks for the spreadsheet and sorry I have already emailed you changes. I think I must have mailed an old itinerary to you since you have me only in one park a day. I have added the hopper and will be in different parks for each part of the day. I take a pool break each afternoon and then go to a different park after that.

it's all good! Now it's easier to make updates.

Seriously, A million funnel cakes to the person who can get it opened!

MEL

So did saving it the other way work??? I could sure go for a funnel cake!

Sorry to everyone for my version of excel...it;s what ever KC "dl's" .

 

[puggymom]

Kat - I sent you my updates this morning from my work email

V - love the idea

So it's actually quiet it at work today and I went to Barnes and Noble and got Kelly the Birnbaum for Kids. So why did I wait this long, got me???? I'll give it to her this week so she can read it and see the pics

She is so excited, I really think I finally have found another Disney geek in the famiy

Got my plan re-done and off to Kat, just have to re-plan the outfit spreadsheet this weekend

Mo, I aspire to be an aunt like you someday, spoiling my nieces and nephews with wonderful trips and presents. These kids are so lucky to have you.

 

[DisneyJo]

Just filled in all the visa waiver stuff for the airline, we also have to hand write a form for each of us at the airport too, I shoul have our passport numbers memorised by now


OK be shocked I've started a list of stuff we need and actually bought a few medicine things for the trip today I know it's still too early for all that, I've still got 5 whole days before we fly

I do too! Reid's only a year old so I haven't done much yet, but my godchildren are three so it's a little easier to spoil them. They are going to Disney next month and I'm going to a few character meals with them. Never been before so I don't know what to expect! I have some things to send them for the airplane; books, stickers, magnetic paper dolls, candy. My grandfather used to make a schleck sp? bag (candy) for us every time we flew back from their house. He was the one who always had a bowl of candy on the table and told me there is always room on your dessert shelf.

 

[jcc0621]

I thought I responded here earlier

V - The site sounds great. Private or public...whichever everyone else wants!

Mo - Isn't that a great book. Jimmy has it and loves it

Angela - your niece and nephew are adorable!

T - Don't panic, but I haven't even thought about packing yet!

CE - You're not doing DHS on arrival day? No TSM FP's needed?

[Muffinygood]

Margie's version and your "revised" one both worked!!! Thanks!

I know I'm sadly LOW tech!

I have to add some things though, so you guys just add them in if you want.

I am going to be at MK from 1-3 pm on Friday and at Lapu fest that night (w/ Bob!!)

Saturday Bob is doing the Segway Tour at Wilderness Campground if any other hubbys are interested....

Sunday: MK 10-12:30 And Adventurer's Club after Fantasmic...

Ok, that's all I have to change. Feel free to add to your spreadsheet if you want.

CANT WAIT FOR FOCKER FEST

Oop, yep. Changed it to departure day... Thanks so much, though! And god knows we won't get them on ToT again, so it shouldn't be an issue if we get there early.

I forgot to mention our little spur of the moment purchase. THe other night when we went to Lowes to replace the bookshelf that collapsed we went to Target too ecasue we had to get Jimmy a folder for school . Anyway while were there I picked up a new pair of sneakers for Jimmy. If you recall last weekend I bought him new pair of Batman sneakers for school, but I thought he could wear them for WDW and for school. Jim says it is probably a good idea for you to get Jimmy a new pair of sneakers for WDW, in case something happens we don't want to be running around at the last minute before school starts looking for sneakers.

So yes ladies...Jim gave me permission to spend MORE money for the trip We gave Jimmy a choice of Spiderman or Lightning McQueen. He picked LIghtning McQueen, becasue "mommy we are going to DIsney World and maybe I can show Lightning my new sneakers" I am training him right

Awwwww he's so cute Janet





The other day we went through the WDW booklet, the one which lists all the rides and we each marked our "must dos" at each park, well it's going to be a short day at DHS This is all we want to do.....

TSM
ToT (Jess and I)
GMR (all except me)
The animation drawing class

That's it



Oh today Jess has made a folder, you'd all be very proud, don't think she's my DD She had made a section for each day, printed out that days restaurant menu, park map, touring plan (her's) and decorated it all with pictures, apparently we've got to pack it and keep it in the room so we know what we're doing each day
