Yay for booking your flights! And that's awesome that you got to use all of those miles! More money to spend at Disney, right?

Thanks!! That's right!! More money to spend at Disney!! I like how you think!!

don't you love that feeling of checking off another thing! I can't wait till we can book...trying to wait patiently till summer when SouthWest should annouce their late Nov. flights...

great to be able to use those FFM...we only travel by air once a yr for the most part...so it will be a scary 6 seats OOP

can't wait till you decide and post on the end of the yr trip's dates

J~

I DO love the feeling, Julie!! I know you can relate!! I hope to pinpoint dates for Nov/Dec very soon!! Stay tuned!!

Hi Becky, I am glad you booked your flights for your May trip! It will be here before you know it!

Thank you!! We cannot WAIT!!!

We are getting closer. Not close enough yet, but closer. Congrats on the flights. I know having the miles to use on some of the tickets was great . More money to spend at Disney .

Fantasyland is going to be amazing! Is it too early to start a 2013 PTR???

 

[mommytothreeboys]

Fantasyland is going to be INCREDIBLE!! I wish I had daughters that could fully appreciate all the Princess and Fairy fun. Your girls are going to go insane!!

Congrats on the flights. That new FL is awesome! Can't wait!!

I etsy! I buy so much on there. What did I ever do without it?

I was going to suggest that you start a PTR, but I noticed you leave in a little more than a week! A little too late to start a PTR, but just early enough to start a TR!

Have a great time, and I can't wait to hear about your trip!




I know you asked this to Becky, but I wanted to weigh in. I carried my Cafe Latte Mini Hipster all through the parks, and I think it's the ideal size. I didn't carry my small point and shoot Canon in it, though. I had a matching Cafe Latte tech case that I put the camera in, and I would sometimes carry it alone to have it in my hand in a hurry, or I would use the little clip on the tech case to clip it to the strap on my mini-hipster when I knew I wasn't going to need it for a while (in restaurants, on the buses, on the rides, etc). I like the hipster for everyday carrying, and the mini hipster for things like park touring and day trips.


Yay! I'm going to start reading your PTR today! Becky has introduced to me all sorts of new PTRs and TRs!


Yay for flights! I can't wait to book ours. I sure wish we had miles to use! I do some online surveys through a website that offer airline points as rewards, and I'm hoping to earn at least one free ticket. That way, we will still be paying what we paid last time, even though we are now having to pay for a seat for Caroline.


Ooh! Cute clothes! I've never heard of RagsLand. Is that a store? A catalog? A direct sales company? I am a Kelly's Kids rep, and the clothes look similar.

Andrea--I see that Becky answered the question....but I LOVE me some Kelly's Kids!! I am thinking of becoming a rep myself. How do you like it?

Fantasyland will be A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! I dont know who is more excited, me or Abby I forgot to tell you...I thought of you when we were getting the princesses to sign the autograph book in the Judge's Tent. There was a lady with two little boys 4 and 6. They did a good job pretending to care about the princesses. Then, their Mom (who was about our age) said "OH! I wanted to get a picture with Cinderella" Her DH looked at me and said "You know this is exactly why she dragged all of us here...so SHE could meet her favorite, Cinderella!!"

That is how I feel about the expansion. It will be SUCH a dream come true for me to be in the actual "lands" of the princesses that we grew up with. I can not wait to share it with Abby too!!! I know she and Ally will flip out about Ariel's land. It looks amazing. They will still be young enough to enjoy it as well.

So glad you got your plane tickets taken care of Becky! That's a great feeling, because now it's like "we're definitely going to Disney."

BTW, love the barbies from India. Their clothes were beautiful!

Thanks Michelle!! I'm glad they're taken care of, too!! Now I don't have to worry about getting the flights I was wanting! It's a weight off of my shoulders!

Thank you!! The girls were so surprised when Brent gave them the Barbies!! They wanted to play with them immediately!

Becky---NO word yet. I am emailing one of my friends who took the class this past Fall. She will most likely have a syllabus (she is like me, she keeps everything!) and I will have her look. Also, I am just going to email the professor. I WILL find out soon

What are your dates again?
