Yikes! Miss a day, miss a lot around here!

djmeredith - Sending happy thoughts and best wishes for you and your family. My mother had a stroke about 2 1/2 years ago, and I can empathize with the struggles. Thankfully she recovered physically, but her short-term memory is really bad. I hope your Disney trip is extra special!

Bob - Happy belated bday to your Isaac! We are a cat family...four total, and our most senior is 13. I love my fur babies!

Issac Thanks you -

I measured my DD(5) yesterday at a doctor's office and she is over 46 inches which means she will get to ride just about everything including Indy!!! My son is 48 so he even wants to ride screaming!! She might could possibly reach 48 in 3 months we will have to see but I don't know that even if she is tall enough she would ride hope so though!!

My favorite spots for photos are:

DL: In front of the castle, but off to the right side. Anywhere near rivers of america. Sword of the stone. In front of IASW. Toon town. In the tea cups. Anywhere on Main street. On the carousel. Tom Sawyer island.

DCA: Both entrances to Cars Land in daytime and night. Amazing!! In Mickey's fun wheel. The exit of RSR. BVS, statue with Walt.

Ok, I'm usually good with the abbreviations, but what is "IASW"?

I can finally join as we are mostly booked. Woot!

We are going for my son's 5th birthday and it will be his first time. He, and I, are so excited.

It will be my husband, myself, my son, and my mom. We have a 5 day park hopper and will be in Anaheim July 2-9.

We are booked at Stovall's and got an amazing deal. We have yet to purchase our hoppers and book our shuttle but after that we are ready to go!

ETA: July 3rd We will be going to Surf's Up for breakfast and Big Thunder BBQ for dinner since my son's favourite food is ribs.

YAY!!!!!

Wow. Don't I feel dumb.

It's ok - as many times we've been to Disney.... I could not figure it out also. If I would have asked my DD first... I would have known...

 

[Nintfamily]

I am SO excited, today marks 100 days here! Tomorrow I will be doing the double digit dance! Then it's the countdown to make reservations!

Very cool!

When life is stressful, I always take time to check my countdown ticker app! Time to add the "reservation" ticker so I don't forget!

93 days
20 hours
13 minutes

until we get on the plane!

 

[jenjersnap]

Eek, I keep letting things slide with my research (trying to book DVC for a Disney World trip with my youngest in the fall, what a PITA to plan, LOL). Made reservations for LA though. Sounds like booking window is open for ADRs? Gotta get our Goofy's Kitchen fix! And, WOC dining package. Oh, and lose 15 lbs so I can eat all this stuff!

Oh good...whew! I saw people adding to their plans and worried they lengthened the booking window. Thanks for letting me know.

1. What is your families’ favorite sit down restaurant and do you have a favorite dish you have to order?

Since we have never been to DLR, we will have to share a WDW favorite.
Polynesian’s Ohanas Restaurant – we really enjoy the all you can eat (stuff into our mouths) & the variety of food you receive.






2. Disney Collectibles or Must Haves – What have you been? or What have you started collecting?

Disney Vinylmations - They are so cute. DD has 46 in her collection.
