I hope that all of you have a good time. The Mickeys should at least be protected there.

jenlovesdisney--it is near Grapevine Mills Mall--are you familiar with that area? It is just a little bit north of the airport. We went on the first day they were there and it took us about 2 hours to see all the statues but there were lots of people there. They handed out little cards and you got them checked off at each statue and then put them in a raffle so that took a little while. It wouldn't be an all day thing and just walking around checking out the atrium at the Gaylord was fun for our kids. The place is HUGE!! Hope to see you there

 

[jenlovesdisney]

OH, OK. Just wanted to make sure we weren't going to be driving out there (about 30 minutes from where we are with no traffic) and then staying for a little bit. I think the kids will have a good time. Can't wait to see you guys!

[Pluto2003]

to go to your first Dis meet! Thank you Janette......you should have seen the name tags she made! Lots of work in my eyes. And the Mickey Coke, thank you again...... The hotel was lovely and nice to see the Mickey's up close.

 

[Celluloidgal]

Thank you Janette (& your DDs) for all your work on the tags! And the "Mickey" cola was a great souvenir for my first DISMeet.

I enjoyed putting some faces to the names I see so often

I want to apologize for not being able to make it today. DH & DD1 have gotten the " bug" and then I woke up w/sore throat. Atleast they are sick now and not in 17 more days (I hope). Hopefully I can make the next one!

 

[KathyTX]

Janette, thank you for putting the planning work into this, and for the adorable nametags and the Mickey coke bottles!

It was wonderful to see some old friends, and to meet some for the very first time.

Here are just a few photos from our Gaylord Texas DIS meet:

Thanks for posting the pictures Kathy. It looks like you had a great time.

 

[maci]

It was very fun!
Thanks Janette for all your hard work!!

 

[KristaTX]

It was great to see everyone again, and to meet those of you whom I'd never met before .

Thanks for coordinating the meet, Janette. And also thanks for the name tags and Coke bottle. Thanks for posting the pics, Kathy and Maci.

 

[janette]

It was great to see everyone, nice place for a meet and the Mickeys were fun. Great pictures too

If I missed anyone with a Coke bottle please let me know and I'll get one to you. I realized I should have kept track to make sure every family got one.

Maci, I love the picture of your kids - it turned out great looks like they are going to play ball with Mickey!

Janette,
Thanks for the time and effort you put into organizing this event. I enjoyed meeting everyone. Hope those who stayed for dinner had a great meal. Kristatx, I'll keep an eye out for you in Dec. at WDW.

[Dan Murphy]

Wow, just saw a link to this and the pictures added. Great!!!!! Looks like a nice meet, Texas hospitality. Nice pictures!!!!

 

[m&m's mom]

That was a LOT of fun!
I loved the Coke bottles and the great nametags. That was a lot of work Janette- Thanks!!!
BTW, Did anyone except me get charged twice for parking?
The credit card exit was broke so I went to the other exit. I was assured by the attendant there that I would not be charged twice - Well of course I was. I have spent about 2 hours on the phone w/ the accounting department to try to get one of the charges reversed.
Oh well - What a cool hotel. I am looking into us staying there on our anniversary next month.
Great to see everyone!

I missed this! Nobody sent me an invite. I would have loved to seen all of you again. Don't forget me next time!
