The NEW Official November 2010 Countdown & Planning Thread ~ Come join us! (Part 2)

[PEANUT1]

oh boy....here is some motivation. Just think of yourself walking naked down main street because you didn't pack your clothes

 

[shinysparklybubbles]

I made my list of stuff to pack and holy cow it's HUGE! I really messed up by not thinking ahead and sending more stuff down with my parents when they left. I am not sure about how much of everything to pack since we will probably need a little of everything!

If you are flying from a cold area to FL what do you plan on wearing? I think my carry ons are going o be too packed for shorts! I will bring them for my son but I guess dh and I will have to freeze or sweat till ME brings our bags.

Does anyone remember which page has the turkey on it where we can change it? No, I'm not a procrastinator!

DH asked last night if I wouldn't pack "everything but the kitchen sink" again.

7 DAYS!! Next Thursday we'll be picking the kids up from school and hopping in the car! Can't wait!
Hope everyone leaving this weekend has a great trip, your weather looks great! I hope it holds up for us.
Just a side note, but I wanted to mention to all of you who talked about taking your LGMH to be laminated that I got the Scotch laminator last year (it only costs around $25 and can be found at Walmart or Target) and for any skeptics, because I wasn't sure since it was so cheap, but it works great!! I love it!

Single digit dance!

This time next week, I'll be starting my last full day of work before DISNEY!

Going to hit the packing hard this weekend, especially the DH's stuff, bc he wears uniforms to work, I can pack almost all his stuff!

I'm so excited I couldnt sleep last night! I can almost taste my Main Street Bakery Cinnamon Roll!!!

Oh so I decided I needed to make more matching shirts for us. I am going to try to do iron on transfers I had a design picked out but now I'm not sure if it's the one I want or not! Hmmm what to pick what to pick!!!

I've been cleaning the house all morning, I really dislike coming home to a messy house. No, I will NOT think about coming home before I've even left.

I CAN'T WAIT!

you need to make more...and I have made none..I made these great shirts for 14 of my family when we had a grand gathering in 05'...they were bright orange and had DISNEY on the front and on the back I put a different character for each person....I was Peter pan, my hubby was Stitch..my daughter Belle was well Belle of course, my mom was the wicked queenetc etc and I had their names and it said MOFFAPALOOZA 2005...(my maiden name is Moffa). Everyone in the parks commented to us because there were 14 of us in these crazy orange shirts..it was so fun.

OK, we're leaving tomorrow for ASMu family suite. Booked DS and his new wife a seperate room for their honeymoon. Could not get DVC 2BR on short notice so we took advantage of the "special offer" then upgraded to DP. Just about finished packing and the kids will be home from school real soon. CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER. Plane doesn't leave Pittsburgh until 12:30 tomorrow afternoon.

I am a late joiner, but have been following this board for a while!!! We are staying at CBR Nov 27-Dec 4th. I am sure enjoying seeing posts from those of you who have arrived!!!! Have fun, I can't wait to join you!!!!

2 Days here too!

Mindy- (I still haven't figured out how to quote someone so I hope you see this post) - we have 4 in our party, including a 9 yo who eats adult meals.

All you do is go to that post you want to quote and click the Quote button on the bottom right of the post. If you want to quote more than one person, on the first one, you click the + button, and if there is another you click the + button on that one, until you get to the last one you want to quote... and THEN you click the QUOTE button... and then it sets them all up. In this window. All you have to do is make sure that when you respond to each one, you type the response after the [/quote] but before the [quote where the next name is).

So we have more people, so we might break even faster. I will have to do the math, but I think it would be worth our while. We have 6 adult eaters (4 who will drink adult drinks) and 1 child eater.. who will hardly eat $6 worth most times.

I am driving down from Virginia where its been in the upper 50's. I expect most of our first day of driving it will be chilly. I'll probably layer. Wear lighter weight jeans in the car with a t-shirt and a sweat shirt that I can take off when we get to the Carolinas and its warmer.. hopefully. We like to have a picnic lunch at the I95 Welcome to North Carolina center. It is very nice with clean bathrooms. I'll bring my neatsheet, but we usually get a picnic table. I will dress my dd8 in knit pants and a lightweight long sleeve or a short sleeve shirt and put a hoodie on her. The car will stay warm enough inside, we just need some kind of jacket for when we stop. In our overnight bag for traveling day 2, I'll go for carpis and a tshirt and a hoodie for good measure.
