Wow.. so, I keep thinking I have time to do stuff. Maybe because I have had nothing but time for the past year?? But in reality, i only have 37 days left to get my act together. In reality I have about 20 good days to do stuff. The last 3 weekends of this month will make the time fly by! I have my sister and some family coming for a visit and sesame place trip on the 14-18, and then the 22/23 we go to one of my BFF's house and Ocean City N.J. with her for the day, then the last weekend I have my nephews 4th birthday party! Then a few days after that party, Kayla starts school, and then the next week we leave for Disney! I am pretty sure soccer practices will start at the end of this month as well! and Don't for get back to school shopping has to fit in there somewhere. Although we have started a bit of it! and in actuality, she needs NOTHING! She has shoes that still don't even fit her in the closet, more clothes than any one child should have, and I bought her really cool shoes and a new school bag in addition to a few new outfits already

BUT she is kinda finding herself this year, so she is into the shopping thing, how can I resist! one more shopping trip, then I will be done for reals!
With all that said, I believe it is time to start posting a to do/remember list!
I don't know that I have mentioned it yet, but the kids will be doing an Aladdin theme for
MNSSHP! My friend Kelly that is going to WDW with us will be making Jack's Aladdin costume

and although I thought he would say no, John is making the kids a magic carpet!! Basically a carpet on top of wood with wheels! I can't wait for this to be done so I can take pics for you guys! It should be a big hit in WDW!! Yet another great reason for us to drive

Now if the
Disney store would just release their jasmine costumes, I would be happy.. although I may wait til we get to WDW to get it??
I am pretty sure I am DONE with gifts for the kids.. I went a bit crazy, and John may separate from me if I come home with any new stuff!
Family shirts have not been made... I need to talk to Sophia about that! Sophia we also need to figure out what we are all wearing for the photo shoot
Pretty soon I should start a letter from WDW to the kids.. Hey Beka, wanna send my kids a letter or postcard from WDW while you are there? That would make it extra believable!
I am still debating whether or not to start letters to the kids inviting them to a dif park each day?? anyone have any wording ideas, or know where I can look here on the dis for some ideas?
I finally found Kayla water shoes! Harder than I thought it would be at the end of the summer season
I still need to make a list of people I have souvenirs to buy for!
Thanks to Vallie I have a sweet list of character meet and greet spots, and some romantic ideas
Pretty soon I will call Disney again and double check that all our adr's are correct. It feels weird to have gotten everything I wanted in one shot! last year I called multiple times a day for months. this time around I only had to call a couple times in the beginning! I am thrilled that we got everything we wanted, but it makes me feel like I am not doing something right..does that makes sense?
last but not least is my list of window decorating ideas! I started this list a while ago and have been adding ideas as I see them!
*Put boo to you on the window
*x-mas lights around the windows
*halloween decor
*Put something on the door for people to leave us notes/dis names!
*Cut out or buy letters and put "Do you Dis?"
*Have Sophia print out our Disney stick people and put that in the window
*Put birthday stuff for John's bday! maybe put we are celebrating....?
*and last but not least, we will attach mickey heads from home depot on to string and make a beaded curtain type thing

maybe all colors..or maybe just black and orange for Halloween theme??
So yes, I have a lot left to do in 37 days!!
ideas,tips,suggestions are welcomed!!
and Rosie, i think I have said it, but I will say it again, the dryer sheets are PACKED!
