A Wigdout trip report, DISmeets, Flashing Jelly Rings and Manpris, Oh MY!

[MEK]

I am glad I am up early to catch a late night/early morning Wigd update.

First - I really hope you little squirrel makes it. What will you do when you return to school on Monday????? You are going to be very tired with these late night feedings. Good luck! Keeping my fingers crossed.

Second - that cheeseburger from Beaches and Cream is huge! Did Baylor eat that whole thing????? The ice cream looks amazing. I must eat there one of these days.

Third - I love your matching T-shirts for the character greet. They are really, really cute. Did you make them yourself?

Fourth - thanks for sharing the mini-golf pics. I never see too many of them on the boards. That might be something DH and I do on our solo trip since we have yet to go mini golfing in Disney. It might be even more fun if we have a few drinks at dinner before we go.

Fifth - sorry school is kickin everyone's butts already. My kids just went back Thursday and I am already totally stressing about my 11th graders grades.

Sixth - I know everyone on the boards is totally crafty and all that, but I just uploaded all my pics to Shutterfly and I am doing a digital scrapbook of my Disney trip. It is super easy to do and really not that expensive ($12.50 plus S&H for a 7 x 8 20 page book). Sorry to hijack, but I'm pretty excited because I've seen a finished product and its nice. Plus now that I am done with my TR I need another project!

It's 3:30 am here, I'm up after doing an early feeding of the little critter. Every few hours that he eats and lives I'm encouraged! Although I'm thinking what on earth are we going to do with a squirrel?!?

Imagine her surprise when she checks on Skippyjon and finds his sibling sleeping next to him!

What beautiful Beach Club pictures!!!! And that banana split looks divine! I would like one of those for breakfast this morning, please! Mini-golf looks like fun -- we haven't been since 1998 when my parents watched Chelsea, and Charles and I went on our own to play.

quote]I wondered what in the world you were doing up, but then I remembered you had a new baby, so of course you're up in the middle of the night!

A hungry little baby at that! I saw that your green light was on too, but I knew you were up for the day and I was going back to sleep for four more hours.....

Love the Beach Club pictures! I think it's such a cool place. I like the sitting area, the umbrellas are cool (I always take a picture of them, too), and our Cape May breakfast there was the best I've been too!

The Cape May breakfast was our last ADR of the trip....

Thanks for letting me go to Beach Club this morning to start my Saturday. It was a lot more fun than the next place I am going, which is either Kroger or Super Walmart for groceries. After I get those home, I'm going out to Disney Store to get your Halloween bag. [/QUOTE]

I enjoyed just seeing the Beach Club again. it's such a beautiful place. I want my house to look like that!
Thank you so much for picking up the bag for me, you can't imagine how I'm longing for an October trip and this will provide such a nice little Disney fix!

Good Morning Mary Ellen!

First - I really hope you little squirrel makes it. What will you do when you return to school on Monday????? You are going to be very tired with these late night feedings. Good luck! Keeping my fingers crossed.

I hope so too, when you read on you will see that we now have double trouble! I'll just have to get to bed a little earlier, or I'm sure Marc will take turns with me....He's good about things like that!

Second - that cheeseburger from Beaches and Cream is huge! Did Baylor eat that whole thing????? The ice cream looks amazing. I must eat there one of these days.

I'm pretty sure Marc finished the cheeseburger off for Baylor, and the ice cream was very, very good!

Third - I love your matching T-shirts for the character greet. They are really, really cute. Did you make them yourself?

Actually Marc and I worked on them together. Do a search on the DIS for Peace Love and Mickey and you should find the link to the iron on or pm me and I can send it to you!

Fourth - thanks for sharing the mini-golf pics. I never see too many of them on the boards. That might be something DH and I do on our solo trip since we have yet to go mini golfing in Disney. It might be even more fun if we have a few drinks at dinner before we go.

It was a nice way to spend the evening, no crowds, and we didn't even keep score......:rolleyes1

Fifth - sorry school is kickin everyone's butts already. My kids just went back Thursday and I am already totally stressing about my 11th graders grades.

It really is doing us in, we've had to have a "little talk" with our exchange student, Max about turning in assignments on time.....

Sixth - I know everyone on the boards is totally crafty and all that, but I just uploaded all my pics to Shutterfly and I am doing a digital scrapbook of my Disney trip. It is super easy to do and really not that expensive ($12.50 plus S&H for a 7 x 8 20 page book). Sorry to hijack, but I'm pretty excited because I've seen a finished product and its nice.

I have seen those books and they are totally awesome! Thanks for reminding me, I might have to head over to shutterfly this afternoon!

What a way to break the news to me, on the DIS!

I'm hungry right now too! I wonder if Dairy Queen is open yet? We never mini golf at home so this was quite a treat for Baylor! Where did you play when you went?

OOH...that banana split looks amazing!!! I can't wait to try Beaches and Cream!!!

Okay one of my fondest memories from my January trip was my interaction with the characters at the Disney Visa Meet and Greet!! Goofy was a hoot!!! I'm glad you guys were able to get some one on one time!!!!

Beach Club just looks amazing!!! I would love to stay there some day!!!!

OH...mini golf looks like a lot of fun...if only I wasn't so terrible at the game LOL!!!!!

Great update!!!! How are things this morning with your newest little one!

Being the mother of a newborn, I would have thought you would have checked on the baby before getting on the DIS!!!

I wish we had gotten over to that meet and greet more often, it's so much fun!

Beach Club just looks amazing!!! I would love to stay there some day!!!!

I can't wait to go back to the Beach Club next June but I'm very anxious to see how much we love CP's Animal Kingdom this December!

OH...mini golf looks like a lot of fun...if only I wasn't so terrible at the game LOL!!!!!

I'll bet I'm far worse than you....

Great update!!!! How are things this morning with your newest little one!

The new one is a little girl, a bit skinny, we are thinking something has happened to the mom, she's a scrapper though! Pedialyte for her this morning then on to puppy formula.

Well, since you had just fed him I didn't want to disturb his rest!

 

[lmillercrew]

First of all, how does one know what to feed a baby squirrel?
Good luck with those two you good samaritans!
I'm still thinking that you have another week left of your trip! I didn't think it was the last day, coming up? Those burgers are HUGE! Is that the normal size burger that they serve in the parks and other counter service restaurants? Holey moley!

 

[Disneymoon09]

Coming out of lurkdom to ask a quick question! Im a Disney Visa card member, and i already knew about the character meet and greet, buut my question is, do we sign up for it, or just show up, or schedule it? COnfused! I just want to make sure i know what to do come december! thanks and im so loving your TR!

 

[manntra]

Oh.....I hope your two babies are doing well. I have rabbits, squirrels and this year I had triplet deer in my backyard and I am always putting food out for them. I pretend I am Cinderella with all of the animals coming to help her!
The solarium at the BC is where we waited for the DCL bus to pick us up to take us to the ship. Memories...
That banana split would hit the spot right about now!!

 

[winkers]

I love your peace love mickey shirts!
I may have to borrow that idea.

I now need to clean up the puddle of drool on my keyboard from looking at that banana split! I guess I'll have to figure out a way to get dh to run to the store for ice cream.

I looked it up on the internet! They even have videos on youtube!

The next post will be our last full day then after that will be our journey home which was quite interesting.....
I think that burger looks bigger than the others I have seen at places like Pecos Bills.

I'm so glad you posted! Welcome!!

The Visa meet and greet does not require any kind of appointment, you just show up. I think the meet times are from 1:30 - 4:30. Just have your Visa card and you are all set. They even include a free picture!
Are you writing a pre-trip report for your December trip?

I love your peace love mickey shirts!

We had people stop us and ask where they came from, if you can't find the link PM me!

I'm thinking an ice cream run tonight too!

They are eating like little hogs! I love animals but this squirrel thing in the house is a bit unnerving..... We will be purchasing a cage soon!

The solarium at the BC is where we waited for the DCL bus to pick us up to take us to the ship. Memories...

Isn't that solarium beautiful? I imagine they will pick us up there too in June!

That banana split would hit the spot right about now!!

I was thinking just the same thing!

OOOOOOO Beaches and Cream!! YAY can't wait to give that a shot!! And the mini-golfing looks fun, too! We have yet to try one of those, maybe this December, seems like a fun evening activity.


SO on to the squirrels.. yeah, only you WigD ONLY you!!!

Thanks! Yes i am attempting to write a PTR, but im not too good about keeping up! I have some great updates that im really hoping i get around to posting soon! Ive been working 3 part time jobs lately so ive been busy trying to keep up with life in general! Hopefully soon!

 

[Charleston Princess]

I'm hungry right now too! I wonder if Dairy Queen is open yet? We never mini golf at home so this was quite a treat for Baylor! Where did you play when you went?

It was the Fantasia course -- the easier one, I am sure.

I totally thought Shocker must be joking about the second baby squirrel but apparently not!

Fantasia Gardens is really close to the Boardwalk if you all decide to do some mini golfing.
I can't wait to see pictures of your ice cream treats from B&C!

SO on to the squirrels.. yeah, only you WigD ONLY you!!!

I keep asking myself, why me? I just couldn't leave them outside to starve.... and Marc is just as bad as I am!

I just subbed in on your pre-trippie!

I'm a lousy mini golfer.....

I totally thought Shocker must be joking about the second baby squirrel but apparently not!

He was out back cleaning the pool and noticed that the dogs kept running to a spot over in the grass. He went to look and there she was kind of burrowed into the lawn. Poor thing must have been out there for at least all night. I have a heating pad under part of the box that we are keeping them in right now and they just love to lay on the cardboard. It's toasty!

Poor baby girl! I am so glad that Marc walked over to see what the dogs were so interested in!

Two squirrels??????? OMG! That's twice the work. I hope they are doing OK. Please post pics if they make it. I'd like to see what they look like.

I will definately look for the Peac, Love & Mickey Link. I those shirts. I would love to do something like that for my next adults only trip in May. Running out of time for the September trip. three weeks from today.

They seem to be doing really well. Eating and sleeping a lot! So glad my school is so close to home, I can just run over during my lunch time and feed them. Posted pictures on fb, as soon as their eyes open I'll post pictures on here! Are you on fb?

Three weeks from today? You lucky duck!
