I KNOW! I just saw this posted on Touring Plans so we're definitely going to have to hit it one last time, for sentimental reasons at the very least

We are down to 11 days people!! ELEVEN! It is getting so real now! We busted out the Disney planning DVD yesterday and the opening music had barely started and I was sobbing. Penny LOVED the video and I think it made her understand that she's really going to get to see Belle and Ariel and Rapunzel and Mickey and everyone else in the flesh. I'm so freaking excited to take this kid!

Magic Bands have been all dolled up! You may remember from our last trip that Jon painted our Magic Bands with Incredibles, Maleficent, Buzz Lightyear and Mike Wazowski:
While I LOVED these bands, Jon really outdid himself this time. This year we got...
Lion King, Pixar Lamp, Aladdin, and Flounder
Olaf and Wreck It Ralph
Nightmare Before Christmas, Ursula, Rapunzel's Tower, and Paperman
And, my personal favorites, Up and Beauty and the Beast
4 days away and I'm dying with excitement!!!!

Boy he really kicked it up a notch (or 2) with the artistry on those bands, my favorites are Olaf, and the Pixar lamp. Good work Jon.

Excited for you. The video of Penny is so cute. I wish my stepdaughter was interested in going but we cannot persuade her. Hope it is everything you dream of
