Hi Franson Family and Disney Fans!
There's been a bit of plotting and planning going on for the reunion-:)
Here's what we've come up with, be sure and venture in with other thoughts and ideas!!
Everyone is coming and going on different days, staying for different lengths of time so we've tried to focus on Sunday through Tuesday as it seems those are the days that most everyone will be in.
Sunday - Pizza night at the Grand Villa - we'll pick whichever Grand Villa is closest to the main check in. Most likely Aunt Rose as she's been promised the handicap unit. If you remember it's the one Aunt Mar had last time. Pizza night will be handled by Aunt Rose and Aunt Mar. Everyone that wants to join in will pitch in a few dollars for pizza and pop. The aunties will let us know!
Monday - Golf for the boys - If you want to golf contact Les. He's in charge of setting it up. High Tea for the ladies at the Grand Floridian, this includes the younger ladies as well. Audrey will be setting this up, so contact Audrey if you're in! High Tea is much too froo froo for Caitlin so she has offered to babysit our younger boys (Griffen, Owen, Matthew, and Jake) while dads golf and moms' have tea. She's also offered to watch Uncle Wayne at the same time since he doesn't golf! Ha!
Tuesday - We're planning on dinner at Chef Mickeys'. Dinner will be at 5pm, this is the only time Chef Mickeys' will accommodate large groups.Chef Mickey's is located in the Contemporary Resort. So it's an easy stop on your way out of the Magic Kingdom is you're planning a park day. It's an all you can eat buffet with prime rib, shrimp, turkey, all kinds of good food. The adults can enjoy the food while the kids enjoy Mickey and friends wandering around visiting everyone. There's also a special kids buffet - hot dogs, cheese pizza, macaroni & cheese, and a they can decorate a cupcake with Goofy. It's a bit pricey: 10 and older $27.99, 3 to 9 $12.99 plus tax and tip. Standard beverags are included, alcohol extra. We'll need to make reservations by the beginning of July and we'll need to pre-pay. If you'd like to go to Chef Mickeys', let me know I'm in charge of this one.
Last but not least, a souvenir for all of us to consider! Les discovered that you can make a Disney photo book on-line through disneyphotopass.com This allows you to upload pictures of your own, as well as any pictures you had taken in the parks by Photo pass folks and create a book with Disney backgrounds. Check out the website and this is something we can consider putting together after the trip. It would make a wonderful keepsake!
Love to all!
Maureen, Les, Cait, Cara
