I finished your TR, I made it through all 130+ pages!!!
First things first-I wanted to comment on your job-hats off to you. When I decided to go back to school I thought long and hard about special ed and speech pathology, speech path won; but I still wanted to salute you
for a very demanding and not always rewarding career!!!
Now on the real focus-WDW!!! Your kids are so adorable and your family looked like they had a great time. We loved POFQ too. I had read on the DIS about how close and cozy the resort was so I didn't feel a need to request a specific building. In comparison to other resorts POFQ is close and cozy but when you are hot and tired walking to that farthest building makes it seem like you walked all the way from MK. We too switched buildings and were placed in bldg 2-so worth it!!!
Warning Sale Info ahead--Based on your preTR you seemed pretty stocked up on Disney tees, but we were at tri-co
disney store yesterday and they had kids and adults tees for 2.99!!!!!! And other clothing was marked down 40% and the beach towels were all 5.99. (Just in case you were needing a lil Disney fix!!!)
I have to tell you that I cried when I read about Luke waking Tink. Every year my DD says she is going to try this, but she can be a night owl, so she is never up and at the park early enough.
Glad to see Lauren enjoyed BBB, Katie did that last year and even at age 9 she was in heaven!!!
Again I was so happy to hear of your wishes. Can't wait to hear of the official end date for this Oct vs. Dec. Would love to have a wish granted!!
Great idea of the purchase of the mugs, there are a few auctions on ebay right now, and the price is great but by time I add the shipping costs I would pay more!!!
Is your bday present red white and blue or red white and black? I love it and I would love it even more if it was red white and black (Miami U colors

)
Hopefully your TR will stay alive and keep me going until Dec. and then I will attempt to complete our own TR!!! Heres hoping that our trip is as wonderful as yours was (minus some rain and a rude Donald)!!
