Hi All,
Glad to see our "F"ine group hasn't been "dis" banded. We all need to stick together. Speaking about sticking together I have to share something I found the other day.

Now isn't that the coolest stuff you ever saw. I got it at Michaels.
Haven't decided how I will use it but knowing me I will come up with something

I did not get a chance to get the names and time of those of you that had ADR's close to our times. There was one at the Rose & Crown at 6:30 and another member had a 4:00 Mama Melrose ressie. PM me so i can be sure to take that info with me.

One of Del's employees is at WDW NOW. He sent a pic via the phone of the castle at MK. Del is going to take a pic of his empty chair with a sign in it that says, "Wish you were here!" and send that to him.

Oh well enough for now.

How cool-lime green duck tape! I use duck tape on my fingers when I get warts. Yes, I walk around with duck tape on my fingers sometimes. I think it would be fun to wear the official lime green color.

my kids know all about that, they are really hoping for some good antics when we go, but I told them not to get there hopes up to high, I would hate for the to be disappointed if we don't get a good waiter or waitress. I might tell them when we check in for dinner that we want someone who will really do alot of antics.

Last time there I said..."We'd like to be in the middle of the action." and boy were we. We had a ball. The best was the set up phone call by my oldest son's GF to him during dinner. The waitress hushed the restaurant with a "QUIET, HE'S ON THE PHONE" at the top of her lungs. Then she takes the phone and passes it around the entire restaurant so everyone could say hi ! The GF was in on it. The son realized at the end he got severly Punk'd.

Good times will ensue. Maybe you and I can do the Pony Race ????

I am curious as to those of us who are meeting on 4/26 and have children, how old your children are. My boys are 11, 8 and 2.

 

[jdd]

We'll be in MK on the 26th! It's and EMH morning, though, so I think we'll be riding at 9:00am...If we're close to the statue, we'll stop by to say hi!

ProudMomTo3Boys, me too!! Mine are 9, 6 and 2 - I'm sure they'd have a ball with your three!

 

[newholidayx2]

not to cause a stir and I'll still try to be there at 9am
but how did that time get decided? would it be better to meet in the afternoon when we're not all trying to run off to get the bigger rides done? and how did that ride get decided?

I can't answer everything, maybe not even correctly... BUT the morning so everyone else has the day to do what they wish, jungle cruise because it isn't going to scare the little ones, and we can hang out, take pics. as far as deciding some one suggested and no one disagreed jen

Can't wait to meet everyone!!

Zdad, I am wondering how many LGMHPC's I should l make for the meet.. If you could contact me that would be GREAT!

We have kids. Del's are 45, 43, and 39. Mine are 32 and 30. Of course you probably meant the ones attending with us. In that case we will have none. Del wasn't so sure he wanted his kids ages known but that is ok. He was just a babe himself when he started his family. When he started having kids he was Chinese. (Far-too-young)

This pic is of us at our wedding with our kids.

Beautiful Family!

It started as a small meet....LaraK, *MickeyFan*, and Zdad. 9am was the best time that didn't interfere with that groups ADRs and other plans for the day. Others kept adding on, but we thought best to keep the same basic time. JC because it seems a ride as crazy as the rest of us. Any JC boat captian would fit right in with us.

Mine are 5.5 and 2.5

It's my intention to summarize the attenance list this weekend and ship out the particulars via regular e-mail. That should give an indication of total numbers.

3 weeks exactly till we fly !
