We're Dreaming of a WL Christmas! DEC 2010 INTERACTIVE PTR NEW: 12/9 BYE-BYE!

[BippityBoo]

HEY GUYS I realize that I have been gone for so long and that I have totally neglected this trip report and I am SO SORRY. I don't even know how many people would still be up to reading it. Our holiday trip is coming up so fast on me! We are about 2 1/2 weeks away! Like most of you, it is shocking that Thanksgiving is THIS WEEK

In the middle of it all, my son's birthday is on Friday! Needless to say, things are about to get FUN but BUSY.

On the "home" front, we have signed a contract with a builder who will begin to fix our Chinese Drywall home. I feel so blessed to have found such an amazing contractor who is going to re-build us an amazing home! He is adding in extra features that are upgrades. I will be sure to post pics when they start (in about a week or two).

SO---with that, I may post one more post after this, but I really can't see "properly finising" this pre-trip report. Rest assured that I will be back with a Holly Jolly Trip Report! I know there will be MANY things to talk about Thanks to those who are still here---I MISS YOU! Looking forward to some down time to catch up on your reports.

Ho! Ho! Ho!

Welcome back to the DIS, Katie! That's great that you found a contractor. When will everything be finished by?
Hope Aiden has a great birthday. I can't believe Thanksgiving is here!
Are you going to be in Epcot on the 10th? If so, Amy will be marching with the school band around Future World at around 10:30 AM!

I am so glad you found a contractor! I hope this mess can all be put behind you soon. I know you will never be able to forget but hope you can move on.

So glad you were able to find a contractor-- can't wait to hear about the upgrades. I'll definitely be tuning into to your Holly Jolly TR, lol!

 

[SOUTHERNtinkerBELLE]

I completely understand you being away and not having the time to finish the report - and I'm sure everyone else does, too! This PTR has definitely fallen during a crazy time for you, so don't even worry about "neglecting" it!

I'm so glad you've found someone to start the re-building process, and I can't wait to see the progress that's made. I know it will feel so good to move on with your "new" home!

Glad you found a great contractor! Hope you have a fabulous vacation!

 

[pinkpixie0920]

That is great news about your contractor. Hope you and your family have a wonderful thanksgiving!

 

[mom-n-michaela]

SO glad to hear you found a good contractor! And I guess if anything good can come out of what happened to you, it definitely should be that you get a nice, 'new' home with some upgrades

I'm so glad that you were able to find a contractor for your house!

Happy Thanksgiving my sweet friend!!

Hello my faithful DIS friends It is that time! Well, actually, I should have booked this a long time ago but I have been so busy it slipped my mind. Thank goodness my friend Becky (Ladybugmom) posted about problems with availability at Orlando Strollers to get the fire lit under me

I am having a hard time deciding between the City Classic or City Mini. I know most of you use OS to rent. Here is a thread I started, any info would be so helpful to me! Thanks again, BIG post coming soon including sneek peak at customs, packing and MVMCP info

I'm no help on strollers, but just wanted to check in and say hi!

 

[DrMomof3]

It sounds like you definitely need the bigger stroller. Your trip is coming up!!!

I'm not much help yet. We've never used OS before, and we booked with Magic Strollers this time. They're a bit cheaper, and they give you a free rain cover if you request it. You have to pay extra for the rain cover with OS. I'm not sure if that helps you or not, but that's what made me decide to go with Magic over OS.

We leave in 2 days!!!!
