I am seriously so content- and this feel so right that I don't even feel sad about changing things and having to switch stuff around. I mean, I am so happy! This is the vacation we were meant to have! I can't believe we are going to be so close to MK! I feel like I want to make a breakfast ADR at all the hotels on the lake just so we have to appreciate the closeness!

Nice photos, Melissa! Your great grandpa sounds like he was a really sweet man. How neat that Rob reminds you of him. Congratulations on the new trip date. If all goes as planned, maybe we'll be there at the same time and our paths will cross!

That was really sweet of you to say all that stuff... I guess I could leave it that they call them "great" grandparents for a reason!
Also, that is so exciting that you are planning a holiday trip too! You will know its us right away becaus I pose in front of everything or make Rob! lol! So the cheesballs taking pictures will be us!

I like the changes you made for you upcoming trip...I hear the WL is amazing decorated for Christmas.
Did you see Oprah today? It was all about Sex and the City ...all the girls where there and Big was there...ahhhh...it made me soo excited for the movie.

I totally missed Oprah!!! Bummer! I didn't even know it was on, I have to start watching more TV then just the few things I already know I like. I can't believe its May already! only a few weeks until S&tC movie!
I have heard the same good stuff about WL (and I checked out AllEars.net's pics and they were amazing!

I wouldn't want wait too long on those plane tickets, though... the fuel prices have the airlines in a tizzy! 'Course you have to have the money for the tickets after you put gas in your car (which costs almost as much as the plane tickets!). Northwest and Delta merging makes me wonder if our Delta frequent flier tickets will be honored this fall.
Your GGrandpa looks like a character... I bet he was fun!
Weren't you just the cutie!!

LOL! You crack me up! If I am making your head spin no wonder Rob keeps looking at me like I am insane!
I have a little Saturn that gets great gas mileage with a small tank but when I had to fill up the other day and it cost me like $40! i can only imagine what some people are paying! ieieieie! I think I am going to wait it out another paycheck or two on the airfare just in case because I dont want to be in the situation where something else happens. I know prices might go up- but I don't think a month this far out will make or break me. Either way I am going to keep my eye on it and keep checking farecast to be sure! Better safe than !

I actually was just skimming through your TR last night! lol!
I think we are up the same alley so I am sure Rob and I will it too! And I feel the same way about WDW around the holidays! We were there just after New Years and I can't even describe the feeling at like Osborne Lights and stuff! I can't wait to get to stay in a resort that has decorations up and see the xmas parades! and Fantasy in the Sky FW on NYE!!! I feel like I am going to burst with excitement!
Oh and I know you will appreciate the warm fuzzy feeling I get knowing that I actually will get to be in WDW in 2009, when we aren't planning a trip! I can buy a 2008 and 2009 ornament and we won't have to skip a year! Woohoo!

I can't wait for so much stuff! Your pics made me so excited to try Crystal Palace AND my Aunt and Uncle are going this June and we have all been talking about it and they are going to CP too and 1900 PF. So exciting! (I am in the process of making them a countdown calendar actually! lol!)
