(Told you it was silly.)
We had been looking at pics but then yesterday he found a youtube video of inside the store and he just had fits! When he saw the flat rate buckets that you can fill he couldn't believe it (the kid who put up the video even had tips to fit more stuff in the bucket) but then the tables full of stuff to play with was just icing on the cake. We're headed here on our first day after we leave MK (party night so we'll be out by 7) and Jace can hardly wait. 
Oh man, I've got you all so fooled! The truth is that I HAVE to be organized because I am really the most forgetful person on the planet! If I don't have a place where things live I can't remember where I put them last and if I don't write things down I forget to do them. The organization is a NECESSITY in my house. It keeps our heads above water. 
) Most of the things are little like gassing up the car and picking up rolls of coins for pressed pennies and laundry but a few are bigger like finishing up Jace's costume for the party. We only have to go to dance class tomorrow and no plans for Wednesday though so we'll have plenty of time to get it all done- large and small. 
Nathaniel got lost at the Lego Store last year.We're infamous for having lost children....
That's great about getting the map!

Six Flags handled it so poorly that I contacted the main office. 
Which is why they will both have cards on their lanyards with Robbie and my cell phone numbers and will be shown what the CMs uniforms look like first thing. Our back up plan after actual employees of the places we visit is always to look for a mom with kids- they'll always be willing to help a lost child. 
So, I'm just trying to get as much finished as possible and still do all the other things I need to do.
I am so excited! The kids are excited too and just can't stop talking about the things they are looking forward to. Next up on the countdown is the last thing on Jace's list...
He thinks a place isn't worth going if it doesn't have a gift shop and while I know he will enjoy so much more than the shopping this is what he knows in advance will be fun. I'm proud of him though, both my kids really, because they have saved up about $100 each to take with them on this trip. They may have to buy dinner on the way to the airport. 
YOU LEAVE TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of the things I'm excited about I didn't share with him because I knew he wouldn't really understand... but my fellow DISers will... I'm hoping for good surprises like bumping into rare characters and not the kind where someone is sick! But whatever comes our way we know we're going to have a blast! 
Oh.my.gosh!!!! We are sooooo excited. Jace came into my room last night and saw that I was still awake and asked me if I couldn't sleep because of Disney. Then he laid down with me for a few minutes and whispered all of the things he was most excited about.
2: Seeing my plans come together and also what surprises are in store for us
I'm excited to see all the planning I've done over the past 10 months come together but I also KNOW that no matter how carefully I've planned things won't happen exactly like I think they will. I'm just as excited to see the little surprises that 'interrupt' our plans.
that your week goes slowly and you get to really treasure every single second of disney magic with your beautiful family!
the DIS!
