The Smiths are Heading Back...For 10 Days of Disney Magic! (Updated 8/16)

[Tnkrbelle565]

I'm still reading, just haven't been on the computer a lot. It's hard to get up off the couch with my bum foot.

WOO HOO! 5 more sleeps but I think that is 4 more sleeps now.

Maybe we should come take you out instead of walking around Concord in Sept????

Woo-hoo for four more sleeps!

Ash's villains party sounds like fun! We are doing the first official birthday party/sleepover with makeovers, movie watching, etc.

We all enjoyed the Behind the Seeds tour and it is definitely offers a lot of good photo-taking opportunities.

I think your rest day sounds great! It will be fun to take advantage of SAB! I told Jason we should order the kitchen sink some time and he said how are the three of us going to eat that!

Oh we won't be finishing it! And we can't even get the pre-made one because I have a nut allergy.

Do any of these pics give you a clue what Day 7 is all about????

Yup! It's all Princess ALL DAY!!! Won't Randy just love it?????????????


We are starting off with a pre-park breakfast ADR at Akershus. Then we will probably continue on with Epcot and do some of WS....or wherever else the day takes us. After our afternoon break- we'll be off to 1900 PF for dinner. I think we will probably do Illuminations this night but we'll see. It's not Aisling's favorite show so we are going to leave this up to her. We might just go back to the hotel for the movie night????

4 sleeps or lack thereof

 

[Lady Lallie]

Oh I am sure Randy will enjoy Princess day just fine.

I like Illuminations but it's not my favorite. I could take it or leave it but I would like Marc to see it at least once.

I saw the suitcase on facebook, you are so super organized!!

 

[eecteacher82]

Love the princess day!!! Olivia said Aisling looks like a beautiful princess in all of her pictures. Illuminations definitely is last on our list of night shows at WDW. I *think* I finally decided on Akershus over CMC.....I'm thinking it might depend on if I can get a princess outfit done by Friday! I can't believe how close you are getting!!!!!

Yup, take it or leave it. That's how I feel too. I will not be upset if we don't see it. I'd rather leave it open.

And are you sure you've never met Randy?!?! You bet your bottom he'll enjoy Princess Day. If only Pocahontas was there. He's particularly fond of her

And just for the record, MY suitcase does not look like that. I threw a ton of stuff in and will figure it out. Usually I know that I'm wearing on what day.

Aisling was 4 in those Akershus pics and the 1900 PF was her actual 6th bday. She doesn't change much!

 

[Tnkrbelle565]

Anyone out there????

Well I will continue on. Day 8 is a mishmash of a day. The only thing I knew I wanted to do for sure was to go to back to our old stomping ground for dinner...

That leaves a whole lotta unplanned time during the day. We could hang out in the AM at the hotel and then go to AK before dinner if we didn't finish everything we want on the first AK Day???? I'm also contemplating a surprise for Aisling that morning. BC does their own version of a pirate cruise. Has anyone let their kiddos do this? I'm a little nervous about letting her off on her own (sometimes it would be so much easier if she had a sibling!) The cruise is 9:30-11:30am

The other thing going on this day is EMHs at.....

And we all know that Aisling can not resist evening EMHs at MK. So we might do that after Boma.

Sounds like another low-key Disney day which you will probably need after Princess-a-palooza.

What else is left to do on your to do list before you leave?

My to do list here? Well, I have to work today and tomorrow and pray for minimal emergencies. Tonight is my only "free" night this week. Meaning that I just don't have to ne anywhere after work at the moment. I will be doing the last minute laundry, paying some bills online, downloading books on my Kindle, and making Mousekeeping envelopes with Aisling (thought it would be a funproject)

Tomorrow night is insane. I get out of work in Haverhill at 5. Need to be in North Andover by 5:15 for my brow wax. Pray that Bailey has been delivered to boarding by his father at some point during the day (Randy's schedule between work and football has been crazy this week...I really should have made a spreadsheet to figure out where he is supposed to be) Anyway, i have to fly home from the spa, make sure Aisling takes a shower and then I need to do her hair into 2 pony tails and trust her father to get her to sleep. At 7, I need to pic up my local GFs and head to a restaurant in Tewksbury. Did I mention that my friend who lives in San Diego and never comes home anymore, is coming for a wedding. She arrives tomorrow and is visiting for a week but course I won't be here so tomorrow night it must be! I'm hoping to be home by 10 since I will be getting up at 3:30.

I'm all caught up on your plans! So far, I don't think we'll be at the same parks...

But Ben is very excited to see Aisling, and would love to meet up at the hotel for swimming, campfire, movie, etc! I was able to snag an ADR for Cape May, but I'm not sure if it's worth paying cash for it, we're not doing the DDP. When are you guys eating there? Maybe you could let me know how it is!

I think I am most looking forward to eating at Ohana's. I was also able to get a reservation there for Thursday...and I'm craving all the delicious food!

Can't believe how busy your are before the trip! I feel like I have to keep looking for things to do to keep busy!! Only 2 more days for you!! 5 for us...

 

[jenb1023]

Illuminations is our least favorite night time show too.

I like leaving your plans open then and on Boma day. We did more of that on our most recent trip and it was nice to be able to go with the flow.

Wow, tomorrow night sounds crazy for you! I hope everything goes according to plan! (Which we know is unlikely with the men needing to get it done! )

Your trip is almost here!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is a little scary...I'm not going to lie. AND to make matters worse, my laptop plug is being tempermental TONIGHT. Working right now but if you move the computer slightly, the plug falls out. Awesome. Paid $21 for overnight shipping from Amazon for a new one.


So since I have zero time to update...I'll quickly sum up the last 2 days. Saturday we will have another MK day all day. Dinner is at 'Ohana. Sunday we will get up and get dressed, packed up, checked-in and head over to Epcot until it is time for ME to pick us up (probably around 3:30pm) Our flight is at 6:40pm and we will be home late Sunday. And the next whole week I have off too

One more work day to get through and then 18 glorious days off

 

[SOUTHERNtinkerBELLE]

18 days off? I'm so jealous!

 

[Lady Lallie]

You are way too busy. How do you keep up such a busy schedule? Just reading it makes me want to curl up in a ball on my couch!

I hope you have a fabulous trip!! Lots of pixie dust and magical times!!

 

[Dugette]

Wow, your trip is almost here! Hope you get home at a reasonable time tonight to rest up! Have a wonderful time!!

 

[eecteacher82]

Can't wait for your TR to start! I know you have lots of fun adventures to tell us about! Livy and I had a great time with you guys and she is still talking about all the fun stuff she did with her best friend Aisling! Hope your travel day was easy for you!

 

[Tnkrbelle565]
