Have you....

1) ever taken a ride in the front of the monorail (when it was still allowed)? YES!! We did it one time when DS was about 3 years old. So glad we did!

2) been on each and every ride at Disney at least once? No. There are still a couple that we haven't done. One of them being the rockets at MK.

3) seen every show at Disney at least once? (doesnt have to be in one trip) No.

4) found a paint brush on Tom Sawyer's Island? NO

5) stayed in all 3-resort categories (value, moderate, deluxe or villa)?
No. Since DS has been born we've done a DVC resort (usually OKW) every trip except one....and that's even BEFORE we were DVC members!! We stayed at Port Orleans Riverside one time. It was nice but we need more space! Back in 1997 DH and I stayed at the Grovesnor in DTD but I think it's called something else now.

6) ever cooked a disney recipe at home? No, but I'm still looking at this recipe for the breakfast pizza at Crystal Palace!! I love that stuff!!!

7) ever been surprised with a Disney trip?
No. Unfortunately!!! I'm the planner of the family and I doubt that would ever happen. DH wouldn't know where to start.

8) made a spreadsheet/binder/etc with all your plans, ADRS, and such? Shamefully....I have a separate binder for each and every trip we've gone on. DH tells me I'm about to need a library added on to our home just for the binders.

[eeyore344]

Just stopping by because I woke up to the typical, crazy Utah Spring weather--snow and cold on the valley floor. I know some people think it's crazy to go to Disney in June, but when you're getting pelted in the face by miniature snowballs a week before May, heat and humidity sounds like a dream come true.

But when you live where the temp stays 80 most of the time and the humidity is high for most of the time, snow and colder weather sounds like a good thing.

 

[eeyore344]

Hope everyone had a great Mother's Day!! Our trips are getting closer.

 

[carlnix30]

Soooo cute!! You can just see the excitement in her eyes!!!
