Any tips for me and my family? We go down December 1-8 and cannot wait!!!! 88 days, but who's counting???
Are you looking for general tips or resort specific tips? OR are you just super excited to be "going home?"

Either way, I'm glad to see another fellow DVC member expressing the sheer joy that is owning a little piece of the magic!
As a DVC member, you receive many perks: i.e. discounts on MVMCP tickets, car rentals, AP passes (you should've received a pamphlet on all this info). Peruse it and get it to know it well! You never know when the benefit of the membership might come into play!
And, as for resort specific tips: depending on what size room you have (i.e. studio vs 1, 2, & 3 bedrooms), I'd suggest picking up a few groceries the day you check in. I cannot tell you how often and how beneficial having a quart of milk, yogurt, gallons of water & fresh fruit to have on hand in the morning and night hours really is!
Also, depending on how often you intend to visit, you might want to look into: OwnersLocker.com. I'm thinking of investing in this, because we go one or two times a year!! Basically, you get a purple locker (13"Hx22"Lx20"W), which you get to name, and you can pack it full of "trip necessities." Your locker is delivered to your resort, which you then fill, and at the end of your trip, someone picks it up and stores in a climate control warehouse!! I've heard really good things about this! And it's always fun to see them rolling thru the lobby!
Have fun on your inaugural trip to your "other home!!"
