Disney Countdown - Days 121 - 115

I posted earlier in the week about our Disney Countdown to Florida. It started on 1st December and will count down right up until the day before we actually travel to Orlando. From the day we started, it was 121 days to go and to keep track, I've been posting pictures on Instagram to mark each day. This is my recap of the week.

Monday (121) - Dec 1st - Decorate the Disney Christmas Tree
Tuesday (120) - Dec 2nd - Read a Disney Story
Wednesday (119) - Dec 3rd - Watch "Tangled"
Thursday (118) - Dec 4th - Make or Draw Disney
Friday (117) - Dec 5th - Make Disney Inspired Food (actually Disney Sing-a-long)
Saturday (116) - Dec 6th - Megan's Disney Party
Sunday (115) - Dec 7th - Play a Disney Game

Originally we weren't going to add December to our Countdown Calendar but when the kids convinced me into it, it was on the proviso we made some of the days really easy as December is such a busy month. Monday was 1st December and as such we were putting up our Christmas Tree anyway. As its Disney themed, it covered the criteria anyway. Tuesday was a night with Dad and as he didn't have the kids back till 8pm we were really pushed to get in our Disney task. Luckily it was read and so we snuggled up in bed and read one of the new Disney stories we'd bought. However it still wasn't ideal. On Wednesday, Tangled got watched while eating Disney, sewing costumes and blogging. Basically everything at the same time just to fit it in. Thursday Lily wasn't really in the mood to participate (she was still tired from Tuesday) so she just chilled out while Megan drew pictures and I did more sewing. On Friday the hope had been to make Disney inspired food, in preparation for Megan's party the next day. However I was so far behind on my sewing that I really didn't have time to supervise the kids. Instead we blasted out some Disney and had a sing-along, just to get our Disney fix. In the end, Saturday was such a rush that we still didn't end up making any Disney inspired food and it was all just finger food with a vague theme. However the whole of Megan's party was Disney so that ticked all the boxes for our Disney Day. Finally that left Sunday which was to play a Disney game. While we plan to make the most of some board games, the Wii and the Xbox, this week we were all so tired that the iPad was about the most we could manage. Megan and Lily played a variety of Disney games and I tried out Tsum Tsum.

This has been our first Disney Countdown week and I've really enjoyed it, as have the kids. I'm looking forward to having more time to breath in the upcoming weeks and hopefully have a lot more fun with Disney themed projects.
