We have never been to WDW at Christmas, but I just start thinking about going, next year. We wouldn't go until after Christmas, don't want to miss out on extended famly fun. And, do to work obligations, probably only 3-4 days. This yr, would be perfect becuase the girls are out an especially long time, but too late to save enough money. Oh, well, part of the fun is the anticipation.:)Quote:

I am SOOOOO jealous!!! We spent Christmas 2005 at Disney (Santa brought our family a surprise trip) and I would do that every year if possible. We are giving the kids a WDW trip for Christmas this year, but we will take it in January since it's much cheaper and the flight vouchers I had are good then. But we'll definately be back at Christmas some other time. Enjoy!!Quote:

As the crowd grew larger, pushing and shoving started and those of us near the front were getting crushed and trampled. Luckily my DDs are teenagers but there were toddlers and strollers in that mess. It took us half an hour to get from Le Cellier to the main walkway into FW.Quote:

Last year, my DD's with the help of DH & I made chain links out of red and green paper and for each day we put an activity. It ranged from "drink hot cocoa by the fire" or "make a Christmas card for grandma" to "go to Zoolights" or "make a gingerbread house". Of course, DH & I stratigically put the big things on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays!
I love the idea of wrapping books and opening one each day - will use that this year!
BF and I will be holding our 6th annual cookie exchange party this year. She and I do ALL of the food that we eat that night. Just appetizers, and we really go all out! We invite about 35 people, but with schedules, we usually have between 25 and 30 people there. Each person brings 4 dz. cookies so we all leave with tons of cookies !!!!
This year, we will be in WDW - which my kids don't know about yet!!! 1900 Park Faire on Christmas Eve and Boma on Christmas Day.
Can't wait for Christmas!!!
My daughter's getting married 12/29 so I'm cutting back on Christmas and worrying more about the wedding. There'll still be some Christmas stuff going on but I can't deal with both at full throttle.
How about a take off on gingerbread houses but made with graham crackers. Use the crackers and Royal icing for the glue. Make them up ahead of time and then everyone can decorate their own house. I'm sure you can find the instructions for the houses on the internet somewhere.Quote:

Or you could have people decorate a small wreath and then add their picture in the middle.
