Towers- You are so lucky! I wish I was leaving for WDW tomorrow, but I still have 68 days to wait. You're Belle on your ticker is SO close to the end! My Tink is halfway there! Hooray!

I keep forgetting to say this...... to all of our new Snowbirds! I'm a little behind. Please forgive me! You're going to love it here with us!

I'm sure whatever you do for your hubby's birthday he'll love it!!!! Maybe you could put your own birthday basket surprise together and hide the pieces and put it together when you get there LOL!!!

THAT has been the theme in our house for the past 60 Days especially when I come home from a crazy day at the hospital or a wacked out day in class (which seems to be happening very often now that grad is 3 weeks away )

I noticed that too...well I just finished my first of two tests for tonight...I for one will be very happy for tomorrow to come!!!

I'm thinking I just have to get through this week and two days next week and then I get a break...but I'll be pretty busy those days. I'm going to be making Christmas cards, Thanksgiving dinner, and then shopping LOL!! But boy will time fly by and then we'll be at Disney...I'm so very excited!!

Sorry to ramble I'm really trying to avoid having to start my other test LOL!

19 more posts before I hit 1000...I'm going for a record...1000posts in 3 months LOL!

Jen-We both joined in Sept and you have me beat by over 500 posts!! I'm a pretty chatty girl, but sometimes, I just can't catch up. Keep the posts coming Jen. I enjoy them!

I traded in my Dr. Pepper addiction for my DIS addiction...I'm not sure which one is healthier LOL!!!!

Okay I am really trying to get my act together and get some details planned and I could use some help form all my Snowbird friends....

I was also trying to think of some fun ideas for the kids. I looked at disney florist com and love the welcome packages that have your room all decorated from Mickey but they are pricey and only come with one of everything- I have two little ones and the one Mickey plush that comes with it just wouldn't cut it.

I have been thinking the same thing...the only thing is I AM CHEAP so Disney florist is not going to be happening. I have been looking through the creative boards and I am doing personalized invites to all our meals and I am going to make special Disney chocolates with them. Every night "Mickey" is gong to visit while they sleep and send them a special invite. I also found fake disney money that I am going to print out and leave for my oldest so he can pick out something special to take home (we'll swich to realy money when we pay I just don't want him losing the real thing )

I am not a very crafty person but after being on the DISign boards I have the bug. You can always make your own welcome packages and have a bell boy/girl bring them up when you get there? Hope you get some ideas

Yeah this is my 100th post

Good morning everyone! It is very cold here today. My DH is going to the Bills game tonight and where the stadium is located, they're calling for 6-12 inches of snow! This is one game where I'm more than happy to watch from home.

I'll also be more than happy watching the game on my flat screen than out in the cold. Go Browns.

 

[crzyred]

Yeah this is my 100th post

I'll party with ya for that!!

Alright. A Dis rivalry!!!! GO BILLS!!!

Time to settle in for the game. Be back later!

Mel- please share more about personalized invites for dinner. That seems like a great idea. Any links that will help? I am not crafty but might be able to manage that kind of project.

It doesn't really affect me I guess. Although longer hours on the 22nd may mean more people at DHS. I just hope they don't go and change Fantasmic to 9:00. I don't think they will since it was set for 7:00 when we made our Fantasmic dinner package ADR and we had to make it for sometime around 4:00.

Figures I start planning stuff out and they go changing hours and shows on me.

I started looking over there too- I'm pretty crafty so I'm going to make some stuff I think. I'm making iron on tshirts/sweatshirts for all of us. For my parents I'm making one's that say Grandmom's/Pop Pop's Mouseketeers and putting all the grandkids names on mouse ears. I just started digital scrapbooking and I'm figuring out how to do it. I saved some of the DISigns for wrapping candy bars in too- Did you see the little nugget ones that you make to look like the characters with feet and heads?- adorable! Let me know if you guys come across anything else! I've been bit by the creative bug!

I'm off to shower, relax and get some sleep- this cold I have is interfering with my beauty sleep! If y'all chat so much that we are on Part IV by morning- someone leave a link for me!!!!!!!!

 

[DisneyLifer87]

Good evening snowbirds! So I was checking into getting an autograph book early and I wanna custom make one but I'm not crafty. At all. Any ideas?

It's very cool. My little sis used to take Irish dance and I loved going to watch her. We have a family friend who lives in Syracuse who's daughter does Irish dancing. She's 16 and has been to Ireland, Scotland, and Great Britain for competitions. She's really good!

I taught a girl in Sunday school that was an Irish dancer, as was her mom and one of her sisters. I've heard that they were really good. They would travel for lots of competitions, too.



Good night my Snowbird friends. I am heading to bed. Hopefully I will wake to find Snowbirds Part IV tomorrow!
