In honor of Thanksgiving month and thankful Thursday: I'm thankful I've never seen my FIL naked. I wish I could say the same.. It was just a picture but still. Full frontal nude.

wedding that sucks about Splash Mountain. I found out California Screamin' will be closed when I'll be there, but at least that's just one MH and I like and the kids aren't big enough for yet. I really hope there aren't any other big ones we miss out on. Maddie loved Tower of Terror when she was not quite 4 so I think C will do great since he's a dare devil. The girls will both go on everything they are tall enough for. The only ride that will be a bit of a problem is Indiana Jones -- Maddie is tall enough but Cass isn't. We'll hopefully distract C with Jungle Cruise or something else. Are you also going at the end of JAN? tgrimes what is M looking forward to going on? I'm psyched we'll be there the same time. You guys might want to consider getting Photo Pass. My favorite souvenirs are always the photos so last time I splurged and got it (I think it was around $60). It's just a scan bar for all of the professional photographers around the park (they are at all iconic scenic spots) as well as for the rides that your photo is automatically snapped that covers that cost of downloading everything. To me it was worth it because I got great family photos. Have you guys told the kiddos yet they are going? It's kind of killing me but MH wants to keep it a secret. We might tell them on the way to the airport. They will flip out. I told M we were going but I don't think she quite knows what it is. I"ll have to look up some videos for her to get her excited.

I couldn’t contain myself and had to tell my kiddos the second we booked our Disney trip. Of course, they have no real concept of dates and times so I don’t know if they get it. I’ve been pumping them up for almost 6mo now and we leave next Fri!

I LOVE the idea of a surprise Disney trip! Im totally overwhelmed by all the planning required though. I bet we will do land before world bc we can fit it into a bigger trip. Or maybe a spring training trip to FL with a day or two of DW. It will be so much fun to surprise them. My mom, little brother, and his boyfriend are going too.
Disneyland is much easier to plan for than WDW. You can't order fast passes in advance so you don't have to worry about pre-booking everything. Restaurants can mostly only be booked as far out as 60 days. So it's not like the WDW rush to book everything 6 months out. I have only been to WDW once and had so much fun, but because it's so far away from us I'm waiting to go again when the girls are around middle school age and have stamina for late nights. With DL it's not really much more planning than any other vacation.

yummeecookee, that's so fun! I talk about DL an embarrassing amount of time. I show them the older pictures from when we went 2 years ago. tgrimes there are Youtube videos of every ride as well as the parades/shows so they've watched those a lot. We watched Cars again recently (it had been so long they didn't remember it) so Cars Land will have more meaning to them. They ask me all the time when we're going and I just say "someday." I'm really psyched to take them. They are both old enough now to be past the tantrum stage and no more diaper bags needed, but even when they were toddlers they had a ball.

We've definitely watched the parades but I don't think she's seen any rides yet. She's probably going to shit her pants when we arrive.

Hi! We’re snuggling on the couch watching Moana. It’s 10 degrees out with the windchill. Way too cold for November!
I️ got n’s invitations in the mail and picked up some decorations and things to make her cake. Her party is in December but I’m trying to be ahead of the game this year and avoid last minute stress. Although making the cake myself is probably a dumb idea.
Also sent out a Facebook invite for Dhs birthday. Not sure how many people will make it the day after thanksgiving, but A for effort, right?

My mom has been over for dinner the last couple nights because I was making a couple of her favorite meals.
Tuesday night, she was asking Pete for dating advice. It cracked me up. Reminded me of something I would have asked her when I was 15.
Then last night she announced she has a date with the guy on Sunday and she's all giddy about it.
It was cute.

inthekitty I wish I could do the surprise Disney trip but I get so excited. My sister surprised her boys this summer, woke them up at 3:30 am for a 6 am flight and told them then. They videotaped it. Her 11 year old just kept looking at his watch.

I took my 2 grandmas to lunch for T's birthday that I had to cancel at the beginning of the week when he was sick. The whole diner sang Happy Birthday. He hid his head and cried. When it was over he whispered that he was crying because they brought him cake when he really wanted ice cream.

tallb and inthekitty we surprised the boys with DL last year and it was amazing. We had been at my in laws house in Cali and we told them we were heading home to AZ but instead took them to dl. One of the best trips ever.

I’m annoyed, I ordered a robe from Victoria’s Secret in a really pretty purple/Heather grey color (according to the picture) and t came today. Nope, it just plain navy blue. I️ called to see if maybe I️ got sent the wrong one and they said “oh no, the color just looks different online, a lot of people complain.” Um, it’s completely different, maybe you should change the picture?? This is the online picture:

Adorable, @yummee!! I do all of the well and sick visits -- it's bc I'm home. If mh happens to home he'll come, but more likely it's divide and conquer with him home and me out.

WE have a portal, too. But it just gives me general info & stats. No key items or anything. We have a portal too, but I've never looked at it. I can look at their (and my) full charts since I work in the health system. It's nice! They allow you to do that? It’s a fireable offense at my hospital to go into your chart or anyone you’re related to. Against HIPPA they say.
