I am sorry to hear how ill everyone has been. It is much better to get this over with now instead of at the time of the trip.

That's for sure!! Right now I think the only sicky is Addy. She has a horrible cold & her eyes are all gooey.....yuck!!

Oh no, this sounds like something different so watch out before this one gets a toe hold.

Now all 3 girls have it & Mike & I are coming down with it......getting quite frustrated at not having a healthy family!! Luckily today should be warm enough to open up the house & hopefully blow some of the germs out!! I don't think the Willamette Valley & my family get along.....we've never been this sick before.

That is awful, but the fresh air may just help. If nothing it may just make you feel better.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!

God blessed me with Nicholas, Tyler, Derek, Anthony, Adaleah, Michayla & Shyann!!
How could a mom need anything more?!

 

[kaoden39]

You are indeed blessed.

Happy Mother's Day!!

Mother's Day 2010!!

So we're about 2 weeks out from starting our Priority Seating phone calls!! The plan is to do 2 meals a day.....a late(r) breakfast & then dinner. A number of our meals are either character or sit-down so we'll be setting times & PS for sure since we're going mid-summer!!

We're planning on:
Goofy's Kitchen for brunch
Ariel's Grotto for breakfast (if we can set it late enough to get the 4 yr old thru the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique)
Storyteller's Cafe for breakfast
Minnie & Friends for breakfast
Surf's Up with Mickey for breakfast

The other meals we will need PS for:
Carnation Cafe for breakfast
PCH Grill for dinner
Celebration BBQ for dinner
Cafe Orlean's for dinner

I will also call to get a reservation at the Rainforest Cafe for dinner.

I'm still hoping info on the World of Color premium dining?? package will come out before I set up Ariel's Grotto. The only problem with trying to do this, is with 10 of us.....that's a lot of money!! The biggest issue is I'm not sure the twins could handle the noise & crowds & it would be after their bedtime.....so we might just have to split our group to see this show. We'll see.....

I also need to book with the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique to get the works done on our 4 yr old......she'll really enjoy the pampering!!

 

[kaoden39]

Ah the beauty treatment. That is the way to feel special.

I got a surprise in the mail today.........my first Backstage Pass (AP magazine)......maybe they wanted to see if I would renew after my first year before actually mailing me one......lol !!

But found out some great info in it!! I can get 20% off at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique.....and that will be great!!! They're also running a special for all AP holders on merchandise thru September 30th.......Premium gets 20% off & all others get 10% off........bonus!!

Mike talked with his mom this morning to tell her we were a bit frustrated that we aren't saving any money for this trip. We just make enough for the day to day bills & groceries. She said not to worry about it...... I feel horrible that a lot of this trip is falling on her, but what a relief as well. We'll figure out a way to pay her back if we can't get anything saved up over the next 2 months.

Getting very close to being able to start making those PS phone calls.....can't wait!!!

Well, we are going to go on Sunday after we get there instead of Saturday morning. That is why it is a day earlier. It isn't you it's me.

Ok.......glad to hear that I can still count......lol !!

67 days until we leave!!! 69 until we walk thru the gates!!!

Tomorrow is the twins 3rd birthday......can't believe it! We were really freaked out about how the girls would do during this trip....but I'm starting to think....they might do much better than we expected. The girls love being outside, love riding in their strollers, love going in the car, really getting curious about things around them....the only issue I see is sleeping somewhere other than their own beds at home. Hopefully they'll be tired enough to drop to sleep.

Getting excited as we near the 2 month mark!!!!

 

[kaoden39]

That's great about the girls. They are getting so big.

 

[DizNee Luver]

Happy Birthday to our twins: Shyann & Michayla!!! Welcome to "3"!!!

(which means they now have to pay to go to Disneyland.....lol)

By the way.........66 days till our trip!!!!

 

[kaoden39]

Happy Birthday!!

 

[DizNee Luver]

Thanx Michele!!



I have many readers.....feel free to say hello.....would love to hear from you!!

 

[DisneyStitch626]

Happy Birthday to your girls! I hope their day is wonderful! Yay to 66 days!

 

[6Smiles]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUR DAUGHTERS!

You have a beautiful family and I just adore the autism t-shirts, they are so cool.

Your TR title made me think I was going to be reading about a bunch of college kids trying to fit into a minivan to save money on gas to get to disneyland ! It sounds like your family is going to have an awesome trip and I look forward to reading more.
