I got tired of waiting for our 07-08 school calendar to be published, so I called the School Board. As it turns out next year Christmas break is Dec. 21 until JAN 7!! Usually we go back the day after New Years. This means that I can plan a WDW trip for the first week of January and miss the Christmas rush! Of course we will miss MVMCP but the Osborne Lights and all the other decorations will still be there. I'm so excited!!!!

Yippee Skippee!!!!!

How many of your kids get presents from both Santa and you? All of my kids' presents come from Santa. I don't know why, other than that's how my parents did it.

Me too!

But I do give the kids PJ's that are wrapped and they open on Christmas Eve. And I give them each a book addressed To Daddy & Lizzy, From Mommy; To Daddy & Joe From Mommy; To Daddy & Emma, From Mommy. This year Lizzy & DH are getting a weather book as Lizzy has always been fascinated by weather (maybe you could tell from her Thanksgiving poem), Joe & DH are getting R is for Racing-a racing ABC book as Joe LOVES cars and the alphabet, Emma & DH are getting Bats at the Beach as I think Emma will love the dark night time illustrations and DH actually loves bats.
