Week After Turkey Day Shenanigans

[BDFmom]

We doing EMM on 11/29 and MVMCP on 12/1.

I would love a PPO BOG on 11/27 to avoid the RP Hussle. DD does not want a PPO she wants to watch the welcome show and head in with the hoards. I suggested her an her brother wait for the show and I'll leisurely walk up an uncrowded main street for a PPO BOG.

Who's doin the Christmas party on 11/29? We are!

We are!

 

[wonderlandwego]

Me too! We'll be at EMM too!

I'm excited!!! I debated for a month and then finally decided to do it.

I wish we could do EMM on 11/27! We have a PPO BOG that day. Anyone else?

I am cancelling my BOG PPO to do it.

We are!

We will be there on the 29th too!!
This will be our first time. I still don't know how to plan for the characters. Jack Skellington and 7 Dwarfs are a must. I've read that the lines are very long

The lines are long but it's doable and part of the fun! My family isn't huge character meet n greet fans, but we will do 7D for sure. And probably a few others. You are gonna love it! So much fun!

So who is driving down? How long will your drive be? Ours is 10 hours, not including stops. We decided to go through Atlanta , then we will stop in Valdosta for the night. I didn't want to drive straight through with the littlest. Doing the same on the way back, which will give us a half day at Disney since we are only driving 3 hours up the road.

 

[Meeko5]

I drove every time as a kid. 5 kids in a conversion van. I swore as an adult I'd ever do that again. So far so good haha.

@ElenaofAvalor god speed friend. I hope you guys have a great, uneventful trip both ways!!

Just got our pest control appointment set. It was supposed to happen either Thanksgiving week or the week after (ah-hem, we have more important things to be doing THAT week!). He'll be here this Friday. It's the little things that get me excited right now.

I'm sick, and just hoping the rest of the family doesn't get it.

DH spent over 4 hours raking and blowing leaves and cutting down the garden areas. We have SO MANY LEAVES. it's crazy. I love all the trees but ugh. I am hoping to convince him to let us put up the Christmas tree tomorrow. We usually do it the weekend after thanksgiving but we will be gone so I want to come home to a festive house. It will help with the post disney blues I'm sure!

Our cats don't allow us to have a tree anymore. I grew up with cats and none of them really ever bothered the tree other than maybe to paw at the low-hanging ornaments, but these two... geesh! I gave up after they destroyed two trees.

I hope you over whatever bug really soon and are feeling great for your trip! I decided to do Thanksgiving on Wednesday. We are leaving Friday and I didn't want to give up having leftovers! I'll spend Wednesday afternoon and Thursday doing some Christmas decorating and doing last minute trip packing stuff.

 

[Babs1975]

12 days for us! This next week at work will drag though! Once we get through next week, we'll be home free! Those last days will go quick. I feel like everything's done now, as far as planning and buying stuff, so now it's just the waiting game. I'm pretty much a last minute packer so that won't happen for awhile yet!

Cor is outside now putting up Christmas lights Putting the tree up early is a good idea. We usually do ours Thanksgiving weekend but it'll be the weekend after for us this year. I'm looking forward to picking out new ornaments at Disney!

We are driving too...1100 miles and also going thru Atlanta and staying in macon on sat night. In 2014 we stayed at the hampton in valdosta. It was great having just a short drive the next day. Will u stop at a grocery store on your way in? We usually go to Walmart in Osceola as its not too far off the route.
