I think if I made one of these my family would tell me I needed a Disney Detox program.

Great job on your projects. I love the calendar! I will be posting a picture of mine soon and I really wish I had though of the trivia idea! I may have to add that to mine! Thanks for sharing with us!

Da'bindr'

I think if I made one of these my family would tell me I needed a Disney Detox program.

I can't help it...first, I kept everything in a pile, then I put everything in the Disney Passporter I bought...then I outgrew that (the book wouldn't even close) I went to Office Max and bought something like you would keep checks or coupons in, then I grew out of that and into an accordian pleated binder, then I got upset because I had to constantly take paper out and put paper and in and I was afraid of losing something, so then I bought Mimi and I this cute little 1 inch binder (and really I thought that was tooooooo big) but before long...you guessed it, I outgrew that too and thus now we have da'binder' each chapter complete with confirmation numbers, tab separators and neat pockets to hold things like tickets etc... Totally backed up by you guessed it, copies of just the most important stuff in the 1 inch binder for Mimi.

Yes, it did it take alot to do but now I am comfortable with the fact, I have each day summarized with options we might like to do, confirmation numbers for everything under the sun, laminated and SHOULD I need the real print out of the confirmation numbers and rules for that particular thing...I have that too!

And do I need a Disney Detox program??????? Ohhhhhh yeah!!!!!! Shortly after we return I have a full day at the spa scheduled...just for me! I was going to have my hair cut and colored before we went, get a facial, spa pedicure and manicure (having an hour massage at the GF) then I thought, while I would like to look nice while we are in Disney...face the facts...any hair color-will be fade away in the hot FL sun and/or chlorine pools and water rides where I am sure to be the one who gets drenched everytime! And everything else is likely to do the same! So I may as well wait..and besides after all this...who wouldn't need the full works at the spa after the trip of a lifetime just to rejuvenate.

Seriously though, Glenn and I are really looking forward to this trip. The kids are excited..The grandparents are happy we asked them if they wanted to go-having the extra DVC points this year from the resale really helped make everything possible from the longer stay to being able to take the grandparents along. We are a very fortunate couple to have what we have. And the Disney OCD---well, I have ordered lots of valium to take along! LOL!

Well, the trip is finally over...It was wonderful! Here are pictures of us wearing the t-shirts. It will take a couple of posts to post all the pictures...but bear with me and I'll get them all on. The only one's I know I am missing are the Fantasmic and the Sweatshirts---and I have them on photopass coming-I will post those once I get the cd.

Thanks again to the great designers...we rec'd so many wonderful comments regarding them...and it really helped us to stay all together!

Wendi,

I love your shirts & "shtuff" My question is... Where did you get the fanny packs that hold the water bottles? & the Mickey & Pooh fanny packs for the kids?- I am not thrilled to have to carry things around and I am definitely NOT a fan of fanny packs but it's either/or- LOL I like all the pockets and such and I need to find something better than breaking my back w/ a backpack & even though I have some cute totes now w/ these disigns I don't really want to "hand carry" a bag either- Use the totes at the pools and hands free in the parks... Thx!

They all look GREAT! I know it's not of a design tshirt but this one was my favorite. What a priceless picture!

Would you mind if I put a few of the pictures of my designs on my webpage to share?

Great pictures. It is so much better seeing people in the shirts having a good time. & it is really, really cool seeing one of my DISigns (Meeting the Bunch for Lunch) on people having a good time. Thank you so, so much for posting these. It looks like you had a wonderful time. Memories to remember for a long time to come. Penny

I love your shirts. I may need to steal the plane ones. We have been to the world 5 times with the kids, but have always driven. In December we are flying for the first time with the kids.
Thank you for all the ideas

I hate fanny packs too! But the idea of a hot day with a backpack didn't thrill us either. We found Glenn's and mine and the grandparents at Walmart, in the camping section at the beginning of summer...$9.95 each I think. They were water resistant and had a main compartment and a smaller zippered one in front of that. Then on either side they had a space for a water bottle--that could be secured in the pocket with a gummy---real handy for upside down rides! And since there were two, Austin would use one and me the other for drinks and vice versa with Glenn and Erika. I was hoping for something a little smaller---but realistically, they worked well. Mine carried my camera (not a big professional one but not one that is a slim lime design either, wallet, extra marker for autograph book and our days plans and ADR's-laminated just to be on the safe side and cell phone. In Glenn's-he put, his wallet, video camera, cell phone and then the front carried all the xtra's-just in case---dramamine, wash towelettes, suntan towelettes, off towelettes etc...There was plenty of room left to spare.

The kids-Erika's came off e-bay for 2.99 + $3 shipping. She wanted hers to be able to hold more though--but realistically it worked well for her-she has such a tiny waist. She was able to carry her camera, cell phone, autograph book and cast member thank you cards.

Austin's also came off e-bay---but was alot more. I think $12.50 & $6 shipping. His carried the same as Erika's but was bigger.

Thanks so much! I will definitely be on the look out- Yeah, I figure being hot and carrying one or two large backpacks or even 7 smaller ones (family of 7) just won't be very comfortable-
I have looked for water bottles w/ carabiner clips, bags w/ tote handles for shoulder but can be changed to backpack type when needed but I want lots of sections- No can find..., I have looked for, get this... Even those funky hats that have the straws from the top to your mouth- LOL I thought I could talk my big boys into wearing if absolutely couldn't get anything else- LOL We have a while still for me to find these things so I am sure I will find them- Thx for letting me know about Wal-Mart & I will do a search on Disney fanny packs for kids-

Just wanted to let you know we are in Disney right now and found Disney fanny packs at the Walmart here. We went the other day to get groceries for the room and they had tons of them - I think they were $5 or $6. The Walmart is on Turkey Lake road about 10 minutes from Disney.
