9 days to go!! Packing this weekend..

Me too, already packed except my crossbody bag that I am taking on the plane....

We leave Saturday morning! Technically, we leave home tomorrow, but we are only going stay the night in a hotel next to the airport to be close by for our 7am flight!

We were originally going to surprise our daughters at the very last minute, but I couldn't stand it any longer. We told them on Good Friday with a treasure hunt. It is a little long, but here's a link to the video:

Well, I'm all packed except for the usual last minute things. Yellow tag is on my bag. Will be up in the wee hours on Saturday, then off to the airport.

I am playing the game called Weather Roulette. Weather Channel, AccuWeather, WESH, WFTV... Pick one. As long as my planes run on time, I'll be happy.

Freaking out about only one more day to get work done, but ready for Saturday to get here!

I bought our sunscreen today!! Ahhhhh the little things....

I bought sunscreen ON CLEARANCE the other day! It's a brand I normally buy anyways--usually 15 bucks a bottle, I got it for 1.97.

Things that get me excited:
- Disney trip countdowns
- clearance sales

(little things, indeed!)

We leave in 2 weeks!! It is seriously snowing here today.... I can't wait to get to Disney!!!

 

[Deffenm]

I leave on Sunday for my very first solo trip! It is supposed to snow tonight and tomorrow! I can't wait to feel the sun and warmth on my face. Since it is just me and it is a short 3 day trip, I will pack Sunday. I have everything pretty much ready to go just need to throw it in a bag.

6 days until I leave! I made one of 3 lists for my trip (What to Wear, What to Pack, What to Do Before Leaving) before beginning my daily walk and I'm going to make my other two while dinner's cooking Tomorrow's packing and cleaning - I can't believe I can finally pack! We've been planning this trip since last April, it doesn't seem real!

I'm with you! We planned this last April right after we got home from DL ( I believe you were on the April 2015 DL thread with me back then too!). I am making my lists and I have random piles of stuff I need to organize or pack. I'm working Monday and Tuesday , but I have Weds and Thursday off to run errands and get my last min stuff together. Then a 6am flight on Friday morning!!

Good morning, all! Sitting at ATL waiting for my flight to MCO. So far, so good with Delta. Ate breakfast at TGI Friday's, so fueled up and ready to go.

Don't know my room # yet but just for fun, I'm going to guess bldg 6, 2nd floor.

Have a great time! Reading this made me think, "Wow, it's really April!" We only have TWO WEEKS to go!

Yup I was! Jealous you have Weds and Thurs off! I have a 90 minute meeting after work Wednesday and can't take Friday off so I'll be basically useless (I've warned my kids already lol)

Everyone appears to be getting ready!

Leaving Friday- Everything is packed and ready to load.

 

[Tattylou]

I thought I would get around to packing today, but nope. I always end up packing in the last 24-48 hours before we go...nothing motivates me quite as much as the last minute. Lol

 

[coloredimage]

I'm about to start packing now since I finished the cleaning I have to do.

Edit: I have everything that's not in the laundry packed!

Ugh but I am having these reoccurring mini, stress-related anxiety attacks now that it's less than a week away!

Speaking of mini anxiety attacks, 7 year old DS was up all night throwing up!!! I'm just praying nobody else in my family gets it or if we do we get it asap. We need to be well to leave for Disnry on Friday!

Poor thing - hope he's feeling better soon! My DD has been running a fever of about 100-101 since Friday, with a cough but not a sore throat. If it keeps up after today we'll be visiting her doctor to make sure she's rid of whatever it is by the time we leave!

Thank you!! Here's to kids (and adults) getting healthy asap!!

9 days until we enter the Magic Kingdom!!!! Leaving on Friday the 15th. Stopping in Georgia for a few days to visit with my oldest daughter! So excited!

I did some major packing today! I am so ready for Saturday!!! Our travel agent finally did our online check in and called in our room requests. Hopefully we get our our unobstructed theme park view (we initially reserved a theme park view outer building) connected to my parents' room - or better yet, my dream of getting bumped to the Everglades suite comes true (I know, I know, it is a long shot and I am not counting on it but hey they would free up two theme park view rooms if they stuck our entire party together )!!
