What are you most excited about - right now?

My 8 year old is still excited about dressing up in disney costumes and has them all planned out. However she has asked for a Jessie costume and a tink one, not sure if I will buy it yet as she has quite a few costumes and I can't see her wanting to dress up much longer after our next trip.:confused3

I am excited because I have booked our flights. (after a few phone calls to VH:headache:)
 
I'm really excited for TSM as I just got back from seeing TS3. :)

Also want to see the castle, as I loooove the start of the Disney movies now with the castle and the fireworks, always makes me want to be at Disney!

Is she fairly small for her age? My DD is also 8 and similarly still likes the idea of dressing up but I am not sure that the things are made to fit that age. :confused3

Everything makes me want to go to Disney ;)

She is average sized. Most of her costumes are from the USA, (wdw or the disney store) and they are a bit bigger so an age 7-8 is prefect for her. The 7-8 here does fit however it is a bit smaller. The fairies and the princess costumes go up to age 12 here however the Jessie costume goes up to age 8.
 

I'm excited about just booking Discovery Cove for our trip next year. DH and I have decided to keep it a secret from our DDs , so I can hardly wait to see their faces when they realise that we're going to DC and not SW! :woohoo: :woohoo:

They are going to be thrilled! :)

I have just finished laminating my ADR cards and almost ready to print my CS cheat sheets. They are looking good.

Nothing wrong with a bit of pampering. Now that you have your knickers, remember to pack for the rest of your family too. ;)

ADR cards are 2x Crystal Palace (early breakfast at the beginning and late lunch on second last day), House of Blues, Whispering Canyon, Cape May and Ohana. All the ones DD has indicated she would like to try as well as one or two firm favourites of hers. I want it special for her. :) There is a blank card too because :)I am either adding another one or letting her do a BBB session, but I don't know what she will prefer and didn't want to pay upfront for BBB if she isn't going to be into it at this stage.

The CS cheat cards are just the names of places (one card per park) listed on the appropriate card where we can get fresh fruit cups (for me) gluten free (for DD) and anywhere that sells souvenire cups/mugs so we can continue our little collection. I used it at the end of last trip as a distraction if she was getting cranky and we would seek out a souvenir mug filled with cold beverage, rest and refresh and then carry on and it did the trick. She really enjoyed the challenge.
 
2 Tiggies I just paid a $10 hold for BBB - 24 cancellation policy I think, if that helps.

Oh, thank you - it does help. You know I still have it marked into my itinerary and never booked as I wondered if she might not be interested. I sort of think she will, but didn't want to leave it to chance. That sheds a whole new light on my plans now. Hmm, I think we could forfeit an additional OOP TS for a BBB session.

How old is your DD? Mine is 8 - hoping she isn't too old. She will be very self-conscious if she is sitting with only little tots in there.
 
My daughter did it last time at age 6 and was far from one of the oldest there. But she disliked it because the styling hurt. Maybe we were unlucky with our fairy godmother and my DD is very sensitive about hair-brushing in general :scared1:.

I would recommend it highly but she does not want to go back!

Sounds a bit like my daughter. I don't think the thick, curly hair helps. She also doesn't like her hair being pulled tightly and it WILL pull if when they try and comb it. I know because I am careful but there is usually a scene in the morning before school about hair. I might just play it by ear and see if we can get a walk up if she suggests it. I mentioned it last year and she was hesitant.
 
Just booked an excursion to stingray city to go snorkling with stingrays and then onto a coral reef on the grand cayman islands on our cruise so today we are very excited about that!
 
I'm really excited for our stay at the Boardwalk and having the chance to watch illuminations from lots of different pavillions. :) Also excited about the round the world segway tour!
 
We've changed our plans and we're only going to WDW once next year now, which means we'll have enough DVC points to go for a one-bedroom rather than a studio. I'm hoping to get in to Boardwalk Villas so we're close to EPCOT for the Food and Wine Festival. :cool1:
