Love that drink photo and the lazy river plan sounds perfect!

LOL - looks like M is telling you a thing or two in that photo. So glad you guys can meet up!

She was...and that was about 30 seconds after meeting her

Today I finally got to work on some trip clothing. For my part, I went to Kohls at lunch and picked up 2 new pairs of shorts....and new undergarments. Am I the only freak who likes new underthings on vaca ???

For Aisling, it finally cooled off to the point (at 10pm) that I was able to work on 2 pairs of capris (one for an "old fashioned" Minnie outfit and one pair of Tink PJ Capris). So those are all cut out and ready to sew!

Oh I also got Randy a new Polo polo shirt (is there just one polo when it's actually Polo brand?) ...Gotta love when you get the 30% off coupon at Kohls and all the summer stuff is on clearance!

Lastly, Jen (Jennifer48) and I went out purse shopping and came home completely empty-handed. We went to 2 Vera Stores and neither one of us could find something we really loved.

Oh well, maybe Vera wasn't meant for this trip. Guess i'll stick to my Baggallini...or maybe I'll make Randy sport it again.

37 Days until I can pawn off the heavy stuff on my favorite pack mule!

You're not the only one - I like to have all new undergarments for a trip, too! And socks! And come to think of it - shirts and shorts and bag...

I can't believe how close you're getting! I'm so excited for you!

 

[Lady Lallie]

I am SHOCKED you didn't buy any Veras....SHOCKED.

 

[DisneyDoc5]

If you didn't find a Vera, it was not meant to be! I also like new 'undergarments' for vacation - along with everything else - makes the trip better it think!!!

Haha, I will use a Disney trip to justify buying new EVERYTHING! Although, DBF forgot to put my "delicates" in the delicate protection bag when doing the laundry and about seven pairs of undies were ripped to shreds ...I think that, coupled with Disney, is a good excuse to buy more!

You must go shopping!! 'Delicates', that's the word I was trying to think of!

Great job working on the sewing projects!!! Keep up the good work!

I can't believe you guys didn't buy any Veras! That shows amazing restraint.

Which baggalini do you have? I want one but never know which size to get or which one is the best option for the parks.

 

[Jennifer48]

I want to come watch you sew. I really want to learn!

Seriously, still in shock about the Veras. I couldn't believe the 2 of us. Our wallets were happy but our hearts were not From a purple fiend like me, I was very disappointed in the new Purple Petal pattern.

Oh I love you girls!!! Not a single one of you thought i was nuts about the underwear/socks thing but EVERY ONE of you was disappointed in our shopping woes

Here is the Baggallini I have. I have it in black and Khaki (still trying to stop myself from buying the purple ) It really is the perfect park bag for WDW because it's comfy and the rip stop nylon is waterproof...meaning everything is fairly safe in sudden rainstorms. The sling design is good too because it's on your back but it can slide around to the front of you when you need something.

That looks like a great bag - you should get the purple one so you have a 'new' bag for this trip! Will your DH carry the purple? My DH really doesn't carry much, so I go for the floral Vera's and deal with it!

He would not carry the purple. He really doesn't carry my Baggallini that often in WDW. That pic was from MNSSHP and a bag CLEARLY didn't go with my costume

Got in just under the wire for my day 36 post! Sorry, went out after work with my best girls to celebrate my half birthday! Good of reason as any to have a little sangria and a lot of laughs

Hopefully I'll be seeing some of my best DIS friends in 36 days

 

[jenb1023]

Thanks for the baggallini link! Now to decide which color to order.

Sangria for a half birthday sounds perfect to me!

Do you have a lot of DIS meets planned?

Well the black and khaki are the most practically matching-wise which is why I got those but I would really love the Plum (purple) because all of my accessories are purple (phone case, key ring, Kindle case, IPOD case).

The Sangria was lovely. Not so lovely when I woke up at 3am with a headache. This is why I don't drink wine

If everything goes to plan I should be at least meeting up with Erin, Cindee, and Tifani since they are local. My Cousin and my friend Sarah are also overlapping my trip. And whoever else I see with their lime-green Mickey Heads. Speaking of which, I should make a new bag-tag

 

[Jennifer48]

I don't see a purple baggallini on that site!

We need to figure out our VB purchases and order soon!

 

[Tnkrbelle565]

In honor, here are 5 things I am looking forward to doing right away at MK!


Having a little Splash

Checking out the new Hitchhiking Ghosts

Kicking my Family's butt on Buzz

Captain Jack...need I say more ladies????
