You betcha!!! Have you picked a resort?

Just wanted to give a heads up that the pre-order price of Memory Maker is increasing from $149 to $169 tomorrow. If anyone has intentions of adding it to your Dec 2015 trip, you may want to order tonight!

I can't believe I have not been back to WDW since 2007! 7 years is far too long and this trip is extra special because it is more than likely my mom's last trip to Disney. My sister and I are bringing her and calling this her "Make a Wish Trip". She is battling uncurable cancer and has stopped chemo. Her one wish forever has been to see the Christmas lights at Disney. We are making her wish come true and will be there from Friday (12/12) to Friday (12/19). I am praying for beautiful weather and for her health to stay good so we can make the most memories in a week! 9 days until we are there! We are coming home Mickey!

just realized we are are past six months away from our 180 mark!!
12/2/2015-12/10/2015
looking forward to June anyone correct me if I'm wrong.
I was already brushing up on my ADR skills so I can get a BOG dinner. I have been for lunch.
deciding if my two boys will be able to sit through a candlelight processional experience. They will be 3 and 5 at time of travel.
definitely going deluxe this time around. My top two choices right now are WL or Poly. Even though CR is appealing cause it just a walk from MK.

Glad I have you guys, your the only ones who I can talk to about my plans for a trip that's a year away. I tried inviting my sister yesterday to join us and she didn't look very interested.

What's on everyones list of must do's?

I want to do Christmas party, but, it looks like from this years dates it will have ended when we get there. Check in date of the 23rd.

I have Osboune lights down on my list as a MUST DO.

I kind of want to walk World Showcase to see the different Santa's, DH made a face when I mentioned it. We walked ALL of WS one year after doing a few hours with kids in MK. My mom took the kids back to the room and we walked WS. It was KILLER. We both said never again. But, we got the kids their passport books done. Yay…..said no one.

I love the santas around the world, Im looking forward to them, also have to take a santa and Mrs clause picture at the American pavilion they are so great looking. Of course Christmas party, Osborne Lights and resort hoping to see all the wonderful decorations. spending some time at WL and visit the horses, chip and dale sing along. Dinner at Ohanas, Tusker house will replace Chef Mickey for 2015 for us. that a little of what I have planned,looking forward to the most.

June 7th for me!! I already have everything picked out, too!

Tip on BoG: I was able to get a 5:55pm dinner reservation on my September 2014 trip. The thing was, though, I could only get it for the very LAST day of my trip, which I originally had not planned on spending in MK. I ended up having to re-arrange my entire schedule to accommodate it. I took it as a lesson learned, and for this trip am planning an MK day toward the END of the trip, not just the beginning.

ONE YEAR FROM TODAY, Y'ALL!!!!!!!!!!!



Starting tomorrow: "Less than a year!"

I have read that also, to pick your last date at MK for a BOG ADR. That works out for us,we usually start our trip at MK and end our trip with MK. Last year we did two days at MK and a MVMCP. So order of importance is BOG,Ohanas everything else should be pretty easy to get.

Also, persistence does pay off when searching for ADRs....I was unable to get BOG for any night during my October trip at my 180 mark, but after searching for a few weeks I found one on the exact day I wanted, and was able to tweak the time several times before we arrived to get the exact time I wanted. So if at first you don't succeed, try and try again!!! Good luck!

Hoping for Dec 8-130, Wilderness Lodge! Haven't booked yet in hopes of a free dining offer.
