Day 5… Dec. 2nd

This morning we are going to start out with breakfast at Rainforest Café at Animal Kingdom… We have never eaten at one before so I am kind of excited about it! This is an ADR we just made 2 days ago after looking at the schedule. Terry loves him some breakfast!!!

After we eat, it’s off to Animal Kingdom to see what trouble we can get in to! I want to ride Expedition Everest and Kali River Rapids since those were a no go last year with Tailor… Dinosaur is also on my list and it will be a first for me!!

Once we are done exploring for a few hours we are off to Hollywood Studios!! RnR is calling my name!! And I might throw Terry a bone and ride ToT once… MAYBE… We are thinking about trying Fairfax Faire for lunch today… Terry is dying to see Lights, Motor, Action! We have missed this show every year, so I have promised that IT WILL HAPPEN this year!!!

Dinner is at 50’s PTC 3:30pm… We really like this place… The food was very good last year, I can’t get enough of the s’mores!!!

Now, there are 2 showings of F! this night, but we have made a slight change to day 2, instead of doing MK that evening, we are going to HS and may try and see F! that night… if we do not see it that night then we will be going this night… F! is also a first for us!! I know, I know… Osborne lights is also on the agenda… I am looking forward to seeing all the lights and I know Terry is planning on taking a million pics!!!

I LOVE Osborne Lights and F! I am planning on setting up the tripod at the end of the street and just watching for a long time!!!

There is no F! for the night we are at DHS but we saw it last year and we can see it any trip but the Lights are a must

 

[DevonsDisneyMom]

How's Alec doing??? Better I hope!!! Poor guy!!!

YAY!!! for getting your Disney Doc's... I'm figuring mine should be coming any day now and with Devon not knowing I been running to the door every day for the past week to get to the mail before he can see them!!!

I am very excited for Osborne lights... Although it could lead to Terry making our house visible from space so this could be a bad thing for my electric bill...

He is alright... I got it set up with the school so he can use his backpack and get extra time between classes... His counselor changed his schedule to study hall instead of PE so he won't have to sit outside while others participate...

He goes to the Orthopedic Surgeon on Tuesday and I am hoping he/she will say it's not too bad and Alec will be good in a few weeks...

I will have a really hard time leaving if he is still broken!

You should have your ME stuff any day now... Then you won't have to run for a week or so, then time to wait for the travel documents!!

Only a couple more weeks of hectic work right?? Chad and I were just talking about you (good, obviously ) And we couldn't remember what day you said you would be back to normal...

OMG what a shame!!! Glad the school is being cooperative!!! That's a definite good thing!!!

I'll say a prayer all goes well on tuesday!!!

Yep, I am thinking any day this week for my ME docs!!! Getting those babies in the mail really makes the trip seem that much closer!!!

1 week Toni... 1 stinking week left!!! Thank the good lord up above... I seriously do not know how much more I can take!!!

I was just saying this morning I have to give Chad a call...

Yeah, the school was nicer about it then I thought...

Alec said his knee is feeling better already and he can put a little weight on it... So hopefully it's on the mend and the Dr on Tuesday will give us good news!!

I was beyond THRILLED when I got he ME tags!! Terry was at work and the kids could care less, so I celebrated all alone like a nerd...

I am so glad there is a light at the end of your tunnel!! I have missed talking to you!! I guess that being so busy has made it easier not to spill the beans to Dev though!!

 

[mrsksomeday]

So happy to read that Alec's knee is feeling better. I hope he doesn't try to do too much on it too soon though.

Well, I have only had him mow the lawn, do the dishes, clean the garage, and change my oil... Do you think that is too much???

I am kidding...

He has been down and resting... He sucked my parents into buying him Madden11 for PS3 and Lego Zurg for his Toy Story 3 set... I told them I had a headache and needed a new handbag... They laughed at me...

 

[oregonmommyof2]

So I was looking at my calendar and realized that we are pretty busy the next 5 weeks!! Which means time should go pretty fast!!

Oct. 26th Terry and Tailor go to the Pumpkin Patch
Toni and Alec go to the Orthopedic Surgeon

Oct. 28th Disney on Ice!!!
One Month til Disney World!!

Oct. 30th Terry and Toni go to Halloween Party!

Oct. 31st Halloween Trick-or-treating!!

Nov. 1st-12th Terry is working every single one of these days!! at least 8 hours each day... A co-worker has a friend in the military and wanted a long weekend to see his friend while he is home on leave, so Terry is working for him.

Nov. 11th No School

Nov. 12th No School for Tailor

Nov. 22nd-26th No School

Nov. 25th Thanksgiving at our house with Terry's family

Nov. 26th The guy Terry is covering at the beginning of the month is working for Terry this day so, this is Terry's first official day of vacation!!! We will be hitting the Black Friday sales and hopefully be done with our Christmas shopping after today, beside's a few things we want to get at WDW. We will also try and get the house decorated for Christmas this day with the kids.

Nov. 27th Last day at home... Finish packing and cleaning house, spend time with kids, and make sure we have all the groceries bought for Jordan and the kids...

So, we are having our friend Jordan take us to the airport the morning of our flight... El Cheapo doesn't want to pay 130 for the park and fly hotel... But I have not cancelled it yet... He has been working overtime a lot this week (today is his 5th day in a row working overtime, on top of his straight time.) So if he continues working a lot then I may talk to him about going up the night before... My tummy gets nervous before traveling and I think going up the night before helps calm me down... And I have visions of a Home Alone, "WE SLEPT IN!!" moment...

 

[oregonmommyof2]

I am going to post our To Do List... Maybe it will get us motivated!!

Organize and pack all camera gear... Make sure to charge batteries!!

[mrsksomeday]

Wow, you are going to be so busy before the trip, the time will just fly! I can't wait to see Terry's pictures from Disney on Ice.

I need to start making lists as well. I need to get more organized. I have done a couple things but I need to get in gear.
