86'd From the Poly? No worries-bring us Margarita's & Wiener Salad! A TFW Meet Aug 08

[sorul82?]

That's a crap load of crocs, S'late! I think you have me beat!

That's not even the entire collection.

 

[KatGarcia]

I don't think this is close enough to the carpet for you to see all the colored specks.

Holy Crocs Batman!!!!

I think I may buy the white and lime ones...although I do like the new canvas ones the design is pretty. I ahve the brown and khaki ones already, I just want ones that match more than a few outfits.

OMG S'Late that's a ton of crocs, did you lose one though?

 

[TheDISneyFamily]

Holy Cow!!! That's a whole lotta Crocs! I've only got a pair of the black/red Mickey Crocs. I like 'em, but I still prefer wearing my good ole' Reeboks when I'm in the parks. I always seem to get a blister on the top of my foot when I wear my Crocs.

Jo - Nope, I've never gotten pins from that online store. I've always lucked out and power shop at the annual pin sales on Disneyshopping.com - I buy pin sets and break them up for traders. A couple of years ago, I bought a ton of pins for about $1.25 each. They've lasted us all this time, but now I need more traders for the next few trips. We're going to weed out our collections and see what we come up with before I buy anymore.

 

[PrincessV]

Cute, but does it come in KING SIZE?

No, but LL Bean has one!

You're using your Vera Bradley backpack for WDW? Is it comfy?

It is beyond comfy! Really - the cotton straps are so much better than anything else I've ever tried. And it packs a lot of stuff in. And it's lightweight. AND you can hang it on only one shoulder comfortably, enabling easy in-and-out of rides. I just keep anything that could be destroyed by water in ziploc bags inside. This got tested during the January monsoon. The bag was soaked, but my camera stayed dry!

That's not even the entire collection.

OMG!!!!!


BTW, Jo and Micehelle - I love the pin board idea! Leo's not so into his lanyard, but does like the pins. I may have to give this a try once his new bed is in.

Are you trying to show off your Crocs or your carpet? Where's the Athens? Everyone has to have an Athens!! Those are my favourite. I have my pink Ithacas on today.

 

[puggymom]

Oops, thought I quoted Janet, yes I have WDW Dining on the cell too! But I think they may have my # too

Oh yeah, well looky at my ticker!!

I have ticker envy!

That is a great pic

Wow, that's saying a lot!

That's not even the entire collection.

I love Ithacas, they work best on my feet, I have 2 pairs

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kelly's First Communion is tomorrow, so hopefully I can get a nice pic of us for the Focker web site!

I think the only shopping I am going to do for August at this point is maybe some things for Kelly. I'm all set on shorts, tops, crocs, etc.

I am really trying to be good with dieting too. I have been bringing lunch (which BTW, I can't believe how much $$$ I am saving doing that too) and been really good about getting on the treadmill (4-5x a week 40 minutes each session)

More power to ya! We have been eating much better but still skimping on the real exercise. I'm hoping the good weather will help!

I was trying to show you the carpet.

***News Flash*** I was just reading a DIS thread about PhotoPass Photo Sessions being offered very soon at the Poly and Saratoga Springs, in addition to the GF sessions that they've had for almost a year now...

PhotoPass Info Thread

If we are going to meet at the Poly, maybe we should set up a Photo Session to document the occasion? I'll probably be pre-ordering a PhotoPass CD anyway, so I can just pay for the Session fee, and you guys can buy me a couple of drinks. We'll see what happens when it's officially set up at the Poly - it sounds like the date isn't set in stone yet...

Wow! Good call. Do it guys!!

 

[KatGarcia]

Michelle Thats AWESOME!!! I think it is a stellar idea and if they have them set up by then we are soooooo doing it!!!

 

[Disneyland_Mama]

No, but LL Bean has one!

Excellent!

I've always like the Vera Bradley bags, don't think I could pull one off, IYKWIM.
I'm tired of the nasty Jansen backpack and I'm anti-baggallini these days. I did buy a mini Dickies backpack, but it's too butch for me. Not that there's anything wrong with butch.

Wow, that's saying a lot!

Hey! I'll have you know I've only purchased 1 pair this year. So far.

Kelly's First Communion is tomorrow, so hopefully I can get a nice pic of us for the Focker web site!

Have a nice time, Mo.

Great job, Mo. You've inspired me to get my behind on the treadmill!

What an awesome idea, Michelle! We should totally do it. How far in advance to we need to book?
ETA - Never mind, I made my lazy finger click on the link..... 30 days.

 

[Tanya90210]

S'late.... I love all those crocs.... I gotta get me more..... and here I thought having 3 pairs was alot

 

[askelton]

We'll be swimming down here within the next month or so. (The air's warm enough now, but the pool water's not. I won't go in until it hits 84. )

You are so right!

click here because I can't make the image work

I have this too, in red, monogrammed and miraculously everything fits in it!

 

[sorul82?]

OMG S'Late that's a ton of crocs, did you lose one though?

Yes, Holly will just have to hop one day.

 

[cmp1111]

Nothing new tripwise to report, but I did get Michelle a picture from the birthday party yesterday, so we're up on the web page now. Thanks again, Michelle!

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm with Buzz - let's do it!

I've always like the Vera Bradley bags, don't think I could pull one off, IYKWIM.

YES you can! See my email and Trust V.

You are so right!

UGH, and it's gorgeous this weekend, right?! I sooo need to start swimming laps again.

Yes, Holly will just have to hop one day.

 

[jcc0621]

Nothing real new to report on this end. I still don't have apicture to give to Michelle for the site..going to try again today

My freind that will be joining us for part of the trip was here yesterday so we planned out her days. They have been added for a couple of our TS meals, but not all. No need to ruin the friendship, KWIM
