What do you get if you take 22 and minus out 16? Jo and Shelly meeting halfway between GF and the Poly

Shelly 16 Days

Jo 22

This a a public service announcement .......22 Days and counting DO YOU(you know who you are) KNOW WHERE YOUR SUITCASES ARE?

SNORT!!!!!!



I have no clue what you are talking about.

As a matter of fact, I'm so glad I'm part of the "5 P's" Club-- you know..... Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance???









Yeah right.


I know there are packing cow smilies. I refuse to get the suitcases out until they have appeared miraculously on this thread.

 

[JoBird]

Thought I'd show you the bags the girls and I are taking into the parks. We got these when we were in Charleston.

Close up of them--

Belle's Bag-

And MC and I chose the same one---

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Love the bags Jo!


I know you said Mark doesn't carry anything to the parks, does Drew?

 

[JoBird]

Thanks Shelly!
Remember when you texted me on my trip and I said I was shopping? That's what I was buying!

Mark asked if I plan on using mine before the trip.
Um, NO???? Men don't understand the need to have new stuff on vacay.

Drew has a couple of bags.
He has a Nike Bag like your DH's and also a Chelsea soccer bag that we got for him at Epcot a few years ago that is the same type. I think he might take one of those into the parks.

I need to ask him what he plans on doing b/c I'm not carrying his phone and stuff. I'm sure he and your DS12 will be texting each other too much for me to hold onto it anyway.

I forgot to say that Mark actually has what is called a Slim Clip that he uses in the parks to keep all his cc's and park tix and $$ together in his pocket. I bought it for him before one of our trips and he loves it; it keeps all of the stuff together without taking up a lot of room and being bulky like a wallet or billfold.

I really like Belle's bag! Her and I seem to have similar taste!


Oh yes, DS is looking very forward to texting with Drew!! He is trying to go easy on his texts until we get there so he doesn't go over.

Of course you have similar tastes... you share the same Birthday!
I liked that Bag for Belle. I thought the other ones were too dark for her. She really wanted a hot pink and black one. I told her that it would be too much for a 9 year old.

That's good that your son is saving his texts! That's so sweet. Drew was so excited to hear from him the other day....

Jo - the bags you bought are so cute. I am with Shelly I like Belles bag. Vera Bradley was having a sale and I sent for a travel belt bag(like a fanny pack sorta) for our trip , then today I saw the cutest lil crossbody bag while in KMart so I grabbed it too.

I talked DH into buying one of those alumawallets(as seen on TV) while we were in KMart today, he resisted at first but I reminded him of how in years past his wallet as gotten soaked on certain rides.

I never saw the clip one that you bought for your DH. its really nice.

 

[Disney Mommy 3]

Jo...love all the bags and clips! My kids and Mike just put their cards all in my small VB wallet.. i am afraid they will lose them anyway! And we only take on CC and then some cash...especially if it's not our souvie day at DTD!!! I think I like Belles bag the best too!! i usually go for the brown stuff more than the black...

 

[danceintherain]

If I could be in WDW right now I'd be bouncing with Tigger on the Pooh ride! We think it is so cute in there- it's a favorite of ours!

DH hates that ride. I'll probably end up taking our kids on it alone in the future. I suppose it will give him time to run across the park to grab FPs.

Your bags are very cute. It's about time for me to get a new Disney/vacation bag. Maybe Coach is the way to go?

 

[Lil'Mermaid75]

Jo - Love those bags! I'm trying to decide what type of small purse I want to get for the parks.....so I love seeing what every one else gets and what works for them. I'm so done with carrying a backpack if we don't need to.

Good Morning Jo and Shelly and Everyone else too!

Shelly - I happened to run across a thread last evening talking about pressed quarters? any way someone posted a link to a printable PDA file for a pressed coin check list which I thought immediately that it might be something your boys would enjoy having. It says it was rev. 7/19/2011 Here's the link....enjoy

That's very cool! Thanks Sheila!

Well I was just checking out the extended Orlando weather forecast on a few different sites. Yep, we are getting that close that I can check the weather!! 15 DAYS!!

I know it will change everyday between now and then, but it looks like it is supposed to start cooling down a tad. The week we are arriving looks like highs around 88-90 and lows around 70-72. Not too bad. Sure better than the mid to upper 90's! Although I'm sure with the humidity that the "feels like" temp will be pretty high. And of course there is rain in the forecast for everyday. As long as it doesn't rain all day it will be okay!

Hoping for the best!

 

[seacrestpromo]

Awesome weather forecasts Shelly!

 

[Monny2AE]

Wow I can't believe you're close enough to start checking the forecast!!!

Jo- You're going to look awful silly wearing a mountain dew box for clothing since mountain dew is all you've packed thus far! Although it would be drafty and might help in the heat. Get packing!!!!

Shelly- Love the new scrapbook supplies and your albums! Seeing your pics makes me miss traditional scrapping. I barely have time to digiscrap these days.

You ladies are making me jealous showing all the cute bags for your families. I can't wait until my kids are old enough to carry their own stuff. It's still a stroller and backpack for us.

Good morning....or I should say good afternoon!

DSis and I drove our youngest kids (25 and 23 ) to NOLA this morning to catch a plane to San Francisco. We had to leave here at 5:00, which meant I was up at 4:00 to dress and drive to her house. I felt like I was in Bizarro world being out and about at that hour! Mostly, I was amazed at the traffic on the interstate. I thought we would have the road to ourselves! So as soon as I got home, I took a little nap.

Jo, I love the new bags you and your girls have! We could have guessed which color you would have chosen. I really like both colors. Are the suitcases down yet? (or up, or out, or wherever they have to come from)

Shelly, if those weather forecasts hold, then you couldn't ask for much better! If you ever see a high in Florida in August starting with an "8" then the weather gods are smiling on you! Those afternoon showers are usually quick and welcome. They cool things off and seem to chase away some of the crowds.....embrace them! However, if the forecasts are like the stock market, you are right....they will change 10 times in 2 weeks. But nothing brewing in the tropics - that's the most important thing!

Okay, so I was surfing around the Disney Store site early and came across something that made me instantly think of Jo.....

Do you think it's the same smell?!?!
