The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 4

[julia & nicks mom]

did they have her shoes?

only one pair in a 5.5 and she LOVED them!! she was so sad they didn't have her size!

She wanted to buy them for Alyssa for her birthday present - I wasn't sure they were the right size though!!

lol!!!

did you cancel your December package? I love WDW in the fall - I don't think you will regret your decision!!

No...

We were at MNSSHP last year...I have never been in Dec.

So, I am unsure what to really do...like I said, I got all crazy when I heard there was a deal...

We've got both still booked and will decide this weekend, but I think we're leaning towards Sept. Biggest issue is the kids missing 5 days of kindergarten, but it's KINDERGARTEN (not High School). We'd get to do the MNSSHP, save money, easier to pack (it'll be hot and rain), and airfare is MUCH cheaper ($130 per person cheaper).

MNSSHP is so much fun. The kids will have a blast!

I would go in Sept. MNSSHP is a blast!!!!!!

I just put on my PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEE! face to DH and told him we could go for less than 1500 (including airfare) and he told me to get lost! since we are going in Nov/Dec

I am just holding hopes that we will get a holiday code like last fall. It was released mid Sept and started the day before we arrived and went up to the week before Christmas. I would love to save some $$...

hmmm.... maybe a quick trip for Nicks birthday?!!?

Tough decision. I love both times of year and we thought we'd alternate between October and December.

Just buy that AP for your May trip and go all 3 times

Releasing these codes is so effective! I'm trying to figure out how I can go

I honestly think Steve would divorce me if I asked if we could go...

I was tempted to ask Bill if we could go in October & December...hmmmm...maybe I'll use my "charm" on him

I am debating about changing now too!!!

We had discussed moving our trip up if they offered something like this, now I just don't know...

The first time that we went as a family we went in September and loved it!!! It was perfect!!! I would love to get cheaper airfare, the prices I am seeing now stress me out!!! We would also be saving money since I already booked our package w/ the dinding plan.

But I was also really looking forward to seeing WDW at Christmas time!!!!

Which do you all think would be harder on the kids, to miss school in the first few weeks or later in December after Thanksgiving break and before Christmas???


Decisions, Decisions!!!

you'll have to adopt me...Bill would probably throw me to the curb!

speaking of Disney and Husbands

there is a post on the CB about a former DISer whose mother died in the Chile Tour Bus accident and they posted the obituary


it started: (I am making up the names)

John Smith was the love of Mary Smith's life...

But she always had a soft spot for Mickey Mouse


I thought that was just awesome!!!

Definitely!!!! Do it!!!!

Denise-
from the teacher perspective. here in texas they push a lot of stuff in kinder so i wouldnt want my kids to miss 5 days. i cant believe that what i was taught in 1st grade kinder is now being taught that stuff. i am not sure how your state pushes stuff, just letting you know about the texas schools. might wanna think about that stuff. unless its like the first two or three weeks of school.

 

[julia & nicks mom]

Okay -

I have to leave now or you all will make me do something crazy like book a fall trip

I'll ask him tomorrow!!!

I will say "Hi!! I'm Courtney!!! It's SO nice to meet you!!! Can Kate go to DW for Nick's B-day???

I am VERY persuasive!!!

For us it has been easier to take them out earlier in the school year...maybe cause the teachers aren't worn out & crabby yet! they were very accomodating with homework etc.

What day is your anniversary on exactly???

I mentioned it as I passed Brian on the couch a minute ago. He just grunted.

Even if I had the nerve to travel with a newborn, I'd have to give up Christopher's birthday trip to go in the fall and I'm not willing to do that.

Is this from a reliable source? I hope it's not a cruel April Fool's joke
