Hi there!! :wave:

I looked down at my countdown and just couldn't believe it! 4 weeks! ha ha I still have a few things to do - get my DH's cake ordered which I tried to do last week but didn't work so I am trying something different and hopefully it will be ordered on Friday. I have to pay to bump up our dining to Deluxe and then put my order in for Disney Florist! I'm already all packed! ha ha :lol:

My brother is coming from Chicago so that will be a fun distraction for a week - it's hard not to wish the next 4 weeks away! :lol:

I know how you feel. We are at the 4 week and 5 day dance. I can't wait. My friend from work will be in Florida the same time we are so we will be taking a day from Disney to go down and visit and hang out at the beach. It will be here before you know it.

That's so fun.

But what do you do about toiletries and similar stuff you may want to use before your trip?
Do you have doubles or travel sized things you pack?

Ha ha! :ROFLOL: Yes! The insane prepacking planning Disney Girl! :ROFLOL: My DH thinks i've lost my mind! :p

As for toiletries, I have two small carry-on case thingys - one is for makeup and the other is for toiletries and such. The toiletries case stays put together with "mini" bottles of everything. I have them divided in zip locks for easy packing and removal from the case. I also have in there a pre made zip lock pack that I toss in my bag/back pack in the parks. It's got stain remove, purell, advil, kleenex, a small little first aid thingy, and lots lots lots more! My fave thing in there??? I cut those "sham - woo" thingys that absorb water into wash cloth size squares so that if we get caught in the rain, then we squiggy dry! It works great!! And fold up, they don't take up much space! And i have an empty zip lock folded up to put them if they are wet!! That is pre made and when we come back from WDW, I fill it up again and toss it in the bag. :lol: As for the make up already being packed - I tend not to glam it up too much - i'm a foundation girl with mascara during the work week and as long as I have my bees balm - i'm a happy girl! ha ha But on vaca, i do it up right so it's no problem that is already packed. :lol: I should make a list of all the stuff in my little Disney Park zip lock pack! :lol:

We'll be arriving at the Polynesian 4 weeks from yesterday...I'll be on the lookout for you!

You are much more organized than I am! I have not even thought about packing yet. Too much going on with the kids ends of school stuff! I guess I need to start thinking about it though, seeing how we leave in three weeks for Disney's Vero Beach resort....yikes, I am about to panic....that is not much time!!

I have to be careful with my packing though, because the kids have no idea we are going to Disney World....they think we are just going to the beach. We are surprising them with Star Wars weekends....they will think we are going to the airport to go home, but then we'll drive under the WDW welcome sign and they will get the surprise of their lives! So I'll have to hide my Disney specific things. I am so bad at keeping things like this a secret!

I knew you would be packed by now! lol We're going out of town this weekend (not Disney :cry:) and I haven't even thought about packing except for the dress clothes that we need.

I hope that all of you who are going in the next few weeks have a magical time!
