Just got through making dining reservations for our trip. We are eating supper at Chef Mickey's on Christmas Day and Ohana for breakfast on the 30th. I will update with a new deposit on Monday. Since this was the third payroll for us they did not take out insurance so I will be adding the amount that our checks were over!

Didn't get to deposit the overage in our checks last week. We decided to help 5 children (4 from one family) with thier school supplies so most of it went to do that. But I did make a deposit of $114. $20 from automatic payroll deduction, $29 in coupon savings, and $65 from a reimbursement check from church.
That leaves us with $507 to go! I will be finished with my semester at school tomorrow and hope to sell my books back Friday! I am also waiting on my Rite-Aid SCR of $25. Along with rolling change I hope to have over $100 to deposit this week!

Update on Disney Fund. Sold my school books and was very disappointed that I only got $30 back this time. I usually make a lot more than that. But I did add $29 in rolled change, $24 from my rite-aid SCR and the $20 from books which totals $83! That brings the total in the fund to $1776. $424 to go!! ;D

Last week was a slower week for us. I was only able to deposit $20 from payroll and $52 in coupons. So total deposit was $72.
Brings us down to $352 to go!

OK. I have not updated in almost two weeks but here it is. I have made two deposits totaling $152.00. $20 from payroll deductions, $57 in coupon savings, $34 in rolled change, and $61 from a mileage reimbursement check. If my math is correct that should bring me to a even $2000. $200 left to go!!! I have also decided to continue to add money to the account after my goal is meet of $2200. That way we can splurge if we want to!

Won't that feel awesome? And how fabulous to go OVER your goal and have some extra to play with or save for another trip?!

What ever we have over I plan on taking with us. My husband and I discussed the posibility of taking a behind the scenes tour at the MK. Not sure how much that will cost but it something we have always wanted to do.

I've never done any tours either and really want to! Do some research and read reviews of people who have gone on them before. Here's one place to look for starters: land.allears.net/reviewpost/showcat.php?cat=66It is kind of pricey it looks like. Our next trip I'm just gonna do the Kim Possible World Showcase Adventure in Epcot. That's free and it looks way fun! We saw kids doing it last year when we went but by the time we took interest in it my kids were tired and we left without doing it. You'll definitely have to report to us how the tour goes if you decide to do it!!

looked online at some of the tours. will probably not do any of them. not because of cost. a good many of them require you tom be atleast 16. we only have one child that is over 16. i just can not leave the other two out!

Hubby just picked up two side jobs working security at high school and college football games! That alone will put us over the top. Could potentially put another $1000 into fund! I am super excited!!!!! Put $20 in today from bi-weekly payroll deduction so that brings us down to $180 left of original goal!
