Sounds like things are going much better and moving right along.
Your food list has made me very hungry.
Everything is falling into place very quickly, and it sometimes surprises Alex and I that we are weeks away from our trip. It still feels like it's theoretical and far-off still.
I'm so glad that things were resolved well and quickly! The best outcome!
It's so interesting to see the behind the scenes of the move, and it's so weird to think that you won't see your stuff for such a long amount of time.
There's no better list than a Disney list.
When we moved over here to Germany, being without my stuff was a big adjustment for me. But I think this time around I'm taking it in stride. The positive side is that, last time, we had to spend a long time without our things in our house. It took about 2 months for it to make its way via boat over to Europe. Whereas this time, we sent it so early that when we find our new home, we should get our stuff delivered within a week or so. That'll help a lot, I think, because not having things right now is easier because we have friends to rely on and know where to go to get what we need.
Yay, glad to hear your fps are safe.
My girls adored pin trading, but they're also very comfortable starting up conversations with strangers, even adults. Based on the way you describe your kids, I think you're right about Landon loving it and Evie not so much.
Ideally, I would let Landon try his hand at pin trading and find something else for Evie to do, but she is such a determined person that she feels she HAS to do whatever big brother does. Whether she likes it or not, if Bubba is coloring then so is she. If Bubba wants to ride bikes, then wants to as well. (This made his soccer season exasperating last year. "No, Evie, you can't go out on the field with your brother.")
So I think no matter if she's having fun or not, Evie is going to want to pin trade alongside Landon.
I'm glad all of your packing went smoothly and that you can think about fun things again! It definitely seems like that whole packing situation would be a nightmare if you aren't organized!!
Love your list! I always want ALL the snacks and then I get to Disney and feel like if I eat anything else I may explode! But I feel like lists like that are just so helpful when you are in a park and in need of a snack and you know all the best things near you!!
I am glad the packing out is finished and I don't have to think about my stuff again until we find a new home. Then the "what got damaged" game will begin, but at least I'll be coming off a Disney trip and will hopefully be more relaxed!
I agree about the lists. I think if I have it written down somewhere, I'm more likely to look at it and remember to try something, rather than hit up my old tried and true favorites.
