​

I love the window clings!! Great find! And that's a whole lot of mousekeeping envelopes! Love all the DISmeets you have planned!!

 

[Stefy]

Not long now

Your last day sounds good, will be interesting to hear about your WCC breakfast

Love the last two movie nights, Tarzan is a fantastic film and the soundtrack is awesome, my favourite song is You'll Be in My Heart. Beautiful song

Loving your Mousekeeping envelopes, did you design those yourself?

Hope you enjoy Tangled tonight

It gets pretty weird in parts!!

We all did a little dance when that last link came down!

Three Days!!!

Those were the elusive Disney clings it took so long to find -- aren't they cute? I remember putting those envelopes together at the last minute for my August trip. I was gluing them and trimming them right down to fit the size of the envelope..... took forever! This time it was just tape and go!

Yup, I've heard not to ask for the ketchup! I'm debating on setting up Alex to ask for it for me. I love You'll Be in My Heart

Oh I have no DISign skills whatsoever. Those mousekeeping envelopes came from Natalie's archive from the DISign board.

I have Canadian dollar store envy.

 

[DevonsDisneyMom]

Ooo, I'll go with your friend's forecast! I've started packing and pretty much am bringing a little bit of everything. It's the most stuff I've ever brought.

I know that is the only this about going this time of year... You really need to pack for EVERY season!!! I can not believe you leave in 3 days!!!

 

[Daddy_of_Princesses]

Just pack a couple pair of jeans, some shorts and t-shirts. If it gets cold you can buy sweatshirts and stuff in Disney.

I don't know how they compare, but I love all the ones around my place. They really do have tons of great stuff.

Woo hoo! I know, it's nuts!! Carrying stuff in the parks will be a change for us too. We're used to shorts and t-shirts all day long and not needing anything else. Locker or park bag? Not sure yet.

Just pack a couple pair of jeans, some shorts and t-shirts. If it gets cold you can buy sweatshirts and stuff in Disney.

I'd love to do that but my wallet would protest. Five adults and one child?

 

[20thingamabobs]

Great last movie night! Though I agree Dumbo is kind of a weird one...

and Woo Hoo for 3 more days!

I have to give you credit because you're a lot farther ahead than I am... My mousekeeping envelopes came out too small and I haven't resized them yet. Your window clings are sooo much cuter than mine! All I could fine were one little Mickey one and a little Minnie one...

Oh, and your LGMHs look a lot better than mine too seeing as mine are still stuck to their backings... I'll get to it sooner or later...

 

[Mickey_Mom]

Hi everyone!



Just a small little update today. Tonite, while George was with Alex at hockey, Ariana, Demetri and I went to go see Tangled in 3D!!


I cannot stress enough -- GO SEE THIS MOVIE!! It was hilarious! Yes, boys will like it too even though it's a story about Rapunzel. Flynn Rider is equal as a main character and he's freaking hysterical. The two 'sidekicks' are Pascal, Rapunzel's chameleon who without even speaking is a riot, and Maximus, a royal horse who steals every scene he's in, again without even speaking.

There's a twist to the typical Rapunzel story in this movie and it was told wonderfully. I'm still a sap and teared up at a part or two, and for a change, its totally worth seeing it in 3D.

Ok, enough gushing. Wait, one more time.... go see it!!


The only other thing I had to do tonite was get our pins together and the carry over from yesterday was getting the window clings done.



Monday
- colour my hair DONE
- trim Ariana's bangs DONE
- laundry folded, put away or packed DONE
- mousekeeping envelopes printed off DONE
- all important documents printed off DONE
- lime green Mickey heads packing taped up DONE


Tuesday
- call to set up US texting DONE
- movie night DONE
- mousekeeping envelopes glued together DONE
- Santa letters DONE

Wednesday
- Tangled DONE
- pins gathered together DONE
- window clings printed off

Thursday
- last minute character listings
- last minute hours listings
- Alex's hockey
- Christmas movie

Friday
- Southwest check in
- Kathryn picked up from train station
- Christmas movie
- last loads of laundry, put away or packed


Notice how once again, the window clings didn't get printed off. Our main printer has decided it doesn't want to work anymore. I'll have to get Alex to print them off for me tomorrow, it's too late tonite.



Lastly for today, the weather from weather.com and accuweather.com....

The rain is back. According to weather.com, there's a 30% chance it will rain on our arrival day which isn't so bad since if it happens to, all our plans for that day are indoors. Accuweather.com says no rain.


Then weather.com, though it only goes to December 3rd, says no more rain until a 50% chance on our Animal Kingdom day. I don't like that. I'm looking to have a nicer experience at AK this time around and riding EE at night so here's hoping that goes away. Accuweather.com says the same.


Accuweather.com then goes on to say rain for the next two days..... UGH. I shouldn't have looked again until the day before we leave.


Well, whatever happens... we'll make it work.

Goodnight everyone!

What worked for me was setting a to-do list that I had to accomplish one or two things every day. Then it wasn't such a daunting task to get all the things I'd procrastinated over actually done.

Lol oh that would be too funny and also straws, ask for straws too

Might have to go check out the DISign board and see whats they got

So glad you like Tangled, can't wait to see it when it finally comes out over here. What were the 3D bits like?

I hope it doesn't rain too much when you are there, sending lots of your way

Oh man... straws too? This is going to be fun isn't it??

When you go to the DISign board, look up the sticky thread that introduces who all the DISigners are and scroll down in the first post to the part that talks about who are currently not making any new DISigns. I highly recommend Natalie and there will be links to all the stuff she's made.

There were so many elements of 3D in Tangled. Lots of action and things coming towards you - but not scary, definately not scary - just really neat and so realistic! Many times the kids and I reached out to touch floating items in front of us and I actually braced myself for a water shower at one scene too. Of course nothing wet me and I snickered at myself for it .......

Thanks for the pixie dust!

 

[DisMomAmy]

Not much left to do on your list!!

Weather doesn't look too bad... for no rain! Looks like you'll want to get your swimming in early on!

I know your Thanksgiving was in October, but Happy American Thanksgiving!

Thanks, will check that part of the board out later

That's Disney for you, we've been spoiled on the 3D part with water and smells coming at us But glad you enjoyed the film though

We're good to go I think. Even if I had to run out the door right now I think we'd be just fine. Well, with Kathyrn of course! Now it's just last minute stuff. I love getting Julie's pictures.... I wish I could do that too!

You're right, the weather's not too bad. Those rain percentages are low and we can make adjustments no problem.

Happy Thanksgiving to you!

The 3D reminded me quite a bit of Mickey's Philharmagic, it was so fun!

Thanks for the review of Tangled. Claire and I plan to see it tonight, in 3-D

 

[TinkerbellLuvr7]

Thanks for the movie review! I'm sure we'll go see it this weekend sometime!! My brother also wants to see Harry Potter so maybe it will be a weekend of movies for us!!

I can't believe how close the trip is! We check-in 2 weeks from today!!

 

[Mickey_Mom]

I hope you two enjoy it as much as we did! I've read a few critic reviews (what do they know anyway? ) that said Flynn's character was over the top but I completely disagree. A ton of laughs in our theatre were because of him.

Thanks for the movie review! I'm sure we'll go see it this weekend sometime!! My brother also wants to see Harry Potter so maybe it will be a weekend of movies for us!!

A few of my co-workers are in the same boat -- they want to see both movies. Great way to spend the weekend!

Woo hoo!! So close

 

[wdwgirl03]

Glad you enjoyed Tangled! I definitely want to see it. And I didn't read the review in our paper yet but my dad said it got 3 1/2 stars out of 4, so it must be pretty decent!

I can't believe your trip is coming up so fast. I was just thinking too, while watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade that the WDW Christmas parade taping is probably going to be soon...do you know if it's going to be done while you're there?
