Your plans look great so far! I can't wait to read more!!

Yay, another May family!! We will overlap by a few days. My big one and your Sam both have those big brown eyes and similar personalities. You can check out my PTR-link in my siggy. Now I have to go and check out the hours and move things around I am sure!! Cute autograph books. Does each page have a spot for a specific person or are they blank?? I want to make some but am worried about how much work they will be. Also trying to decide abut pin trading-I think Ariel-my almost 5 year old would like it.

Thanks for joining! I'm so excited I have more readers. I can't remember the name of the DISigner, she did it for me a few months back, but I will look through the thread and see if I can remember her name.

Thanks to you too for joining my pre trip report! I'm just so excited to be going to Disney World for the first time! I had alot of fun making the autograph books. It really didn't take me that long either. I just bought the letter stickers and princess stickers, and bought the books. I did not put the whole thing together myself, just bought a blank book. I was thinking about doing it with a character on each page but figured between the 4 kids trying to find the right page every time we see a character would be chaos.
I debated on the pin trading for a while myself and decided what the heck, if they don't actually enjoy trading, they'll still love the pins and lanyards!

And now I will go check out your pre trippie!

All caught up...super cool. My mommy is also my stepmom, but she is the only mom I have ever really known. She has been there for my 1st everything and even lite the unity candle with my mother in law at our wedding. I don't know where I would be without her. Your youngest sounds like my Jenny. What a pair! I tell myself I am in so much trouble when she gets older.

And I made Autograph books for the kids last week. That was SUPER fun

It's really fun making something like this, I also made an autograph book for DS, his obsessed to get as many as signatures as he could. My other two kids just enjoyed hugging does characters coming.

Have a nice day everyone.

Hey, thanks for joining in. That's nice that you have a wonderful stepmom. My stepson's mother is in his life, but we have an excellent relationship, and I wouldn't change it for the world. My stepson always tells me how lucky he is that he has me because 2 of his friends have stepmothers that are not very nice.

I'm so excited that we have all of these May travelers waiting to go to Disney World together.

DWFan4life, thanks for joining in on my pretrip report.

Yea, I loved making the books, it's so exciting getting things ready, and knowing the kids are going to be so excited.

Ok, I got exciting news .... My Mom just called me and said southwest is having another sale, go on and see if our flights are cheaper than 78 each way. So I said, i'll check but I doubt it. They were still 78 each way but a new time opened up with that price.
Now the only problem I had with our whole trip was that the flight to come home was leaving at 7:30am, which means ME would take us to the airport at what... 5:30am Well I just changed that flight and got on one leaving orlando at 8:45pm, we just gained an entire extra day, we are so excited.

So, later on, I might look at the park hours again and change a day around so we can be in a park that day. And that sounds nice because we could take a day off from the parks halfway through the week for a much needed rest!

I'm so stinking excited

I figured to keep excitement going I would post a some pictures of our last vacation over 4th of July week. We went to Strawberry Park Resort. We rented an RV for the week, swam in the pool and there was a list of activities all day long.
Well my scanner is acting up, so I very boot leggedy took pictures of my pictures

The RV:

The Pool:

3 legged races: Me and DSS, Anthony won first prize

The Magic Show, which was the first night we got there, which was Emily(dd9's) birthday:

The Magician was so funny with Anthony, he kept asking for his help throughout the whole show, but he was calling him Bill.

Bingo

Egg Toss:

The jumping pillow

Ceramics:

Outstanding news on the flight change! Another day is always a good thing.

 

[wlwilliams9]

SCORE on the flights! I always book the latest flight just to get in the extra day!

It looked like you guys had a fun summer vacation!

 

[BridetobeDisney]

Hey!! I made it over. I'm so excited to join in on your planning. We are going to have to meet up on AK day. Your family is adorable and you have beautiful children. Sorry I can't write more my laptop is dying. LOL I'll read more tomorrow!!

 

[3princesses+aprince]

Yes I sure was excited about the flight change!!!!

Bridetobedisney, thanks for joining! I'd love to plan to meet up at AK! I always thought it would be cool to meet another diser

 

[3princesses+aprince]

Ok, so here is my revised schedule seeing how we gained an extra day!
I changed it around a little so we could be in a park on our last day and half a day off in between. My Mother appreciates the day off.

TUESDAY: Plane arrives in Orlando at 9:05am, we're taking the magical express over to the All Star Movies, so I'll take a guess and say that hopefully we'll be there by 11-11:30am. We'll have lunch in the foodcourt and I'm sure my kids will want to go in the pool, Hopefully after all of that our rooms will be ready.
And then it will be off to the Magic Kingdom for the night!

WEDNESDAY: Animal Kingdom (EMH night)

THURSDAY: Hollywood Studios Day

FRIDAY: This will be our day off. We'll sleep in, we're going to make an ADR for Ohana's best friends breakfast, then we'll hang out by the pool and go to DTD at night.

SATURDAY: Epcot (World Showcase)

SUNDAY: Magic Kingdom Day (EMH night)

MONDAY: Epcot (Future world), We're going to make an ADR for Akershus for breakfast. Mini golf at night.

TUESDAY: check out, and then head over to the MK for the day
Need to be back to the hotel by 6pm

And those are my plans, they shouldn't change now, I think we're all set!

Found your TR fellow "yoho'er"
We ar flying SW also and got a great deal. We are are leaving early (like 6:50 am) but our flight back is around 11. Since we are flying on Sunday my parents will have to go back to work on Monday and the boys need to go back to school so we didn't want to fly out too late.

I think we will have lunch at pop after check in also. The kids will finally be hungry.
