Beach Hoppin' With the Wigdout Gang! A super speedy trip report.

[wsushocker]

I am only on page 11 but my guess is 314. Modest, I know. BUT I think one has to get tired of taking pictures of the same thing...

The contest is for the number of texts she sent and received......I got really tired of taking pictures of her texting after the first day!

 

[slightly_obsessed]

congrats on the grandson! little boys are so much fun!

I love the name Liam myself and probably would've used it myself if we had a little boy but my husbands cousin (also named Rachel) just named her little boy that. I'm already the other Rachel, so not sure I could make my son the other Liam, no matter how far away they live. Aiden is my second choice should we ever have a boy.

WOW! She really was texting a lot! LOL! Can I change my answer?!?! LOL! Aww cute pics with the characters! LOL@ Donald and Daisy! LOL! That’s hilarious! Congratulations on the boy!! Woohoo!

How about a Hawaiian name? I think that’s pretty unique. Let me know!

Can’t wait for more!

 

[__disneygirl]

My favorite boy names are Landon, Jack, Taylor, and Jordan!!

Congrats on the baby BOY!!!

Having a new baby is so much fun, I'm sure you'll be a 'baby shopping' maniac!

I hope you get a new phone soon....it must be torture for you.

(I suspect my guess for the amount of texts will be wayyyyy off! )

One day I will stay at BC. If only for a couple nights. It looks just GORGEOUS!!!

I'm going to pick a pearl in a few months. I can't wait!

 

[H20DogsNDisney]

I am going to go with 1573
I am well Anita and Emma is doing good as well she had her 1st puppy class last night! She a smart girl!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Congratulations on a baby boy! Once "we" decide on his name can we start planning his introduction to WDW? I do like the name Tucker - very cute!

What a great view from your room and what a big balcony! Did you have a 1 or 2 bedroom this trip?

I can't believe you saw that squirrel in Morocco- that would have freaked me out! And I don't believe I've ever seen that many characters there. How cool!

I've never done pick a pearl... it looks like fun!

High hopes for pixie dust for the July 4th trip. I hope your iphone comes back to life by then! What would you do if you couldn't text and update FB?! Worse, what would WE do??

Can't wait for more!

 

[kschafer]

wow, that is a lot of characters in one evening!!

I had that same CM for pick-a-pearl, she was so energetic I wondered how she kept it up. She must be exhausted at the end of her shift! Jen, show us the pearl!

Congrats on the grandson! I have little advice on names since we liked Patrick for years before having kids and Daniel didn't have a name until he was 2 days old (we didn't know what we were having before he came out) and both are much more traditional names. You know that as 2 teachers, names are so hard because of associations!

 

[Charleston Princess]

Do you know there were five pages since yesterday afternoon when I last checked in???

Congrats on your first grandson!!! You have some great suggestions for names -- Colin is one that I really like.

Woo hoo for having my own texting gang sign!

Beautiful view from your room -- you look so happy out there on the balcony, Wigd!

I am cracking up at how Shocker, Baylor, and Jen all wore their Kansas shirts for the meet!

love the pics of the room at BCV. our first trip back after seth is born is going to be october 2011. we are renting points and i REALLY am hoping for BWV or BCV, but i know that's hard to get during the F&W festival. the more i look at BCV, the more i think i'm actually liking it better than BWV. i'm sure i will change my mind 603 times before it's time to make the reservation!

great character pictures at epcot! and i love the squirrel in morocco. good eye!

CONGRATS ON THE BABY BOY!!!!!! we are gonna have so many new disney babies running around soon. cullen was one boy name that i loved but ray (my hubby) nixed it. too bad - i could've had a "twilight" reference in there but it didn't work out that way!

 

[Native NYer]

Congrats!!!

The view from your BCV room is beautiful!
I'll be back after work to finish reading everything. 6 more days of school. I hope I survive!

 

[Mndisneygirl]

Congrats on the new grandson!! I'm no good for boy names. We didn't know what we were having ahead of time and never were able to come up with any boy names. I liked Brett, DH liked Anthony or Victor (!). Luckily we had girls. Paige was nameless for 2 days anyway!

Sorry that the turtle still hasn't been located. Hope he's okay.

Love the pictures of BC and Pick a Pearl! We'll be doing that in July!
I didn't recognize a couple of the characters - bad DISer! The fox/bear guys? I better go back and watch some movies.

Sorry to hear about your phone too. I love mine, but I don't text that much. Too many of my buddies are not big into texting yet. All in good time, I'm sure! But I will try to post on FB from it while we're on vacation!

 

[jeremysdisneymom]

Thanks for saying hi this time Erika! Don't be shy on this crazy TR!! Aren't you going to be down at Disney really soon?

Yes, we will be there July 2-12 at WL! We actually leave 2 weeks from today! We are getting very excited. Will you be there during that time?

Erika

 

[jeremysdisneymom]

Whew, caught up on your report!

First of all, Congratulations on your first grandson! That is great news. You will have so much fun. Jeremy is the only grandson (grandchild for that matter) on both sides and has so much fun with his grandparents! I like the name Tucker!

The Beach Club looks amazing. I hope to check it out this trip while Jeremy is on the Albatross Cruise. I hear Stormalong Bay is awesome.

It looks like Baylor and Jen had fun picking out a pearl! So glad you had a DisMeet.

Where did you find all the characters at Epcot? I need to look that place up as there were several we had never seen before.

Love the picture of Donald and Daisy. Too cute!

Erika

 

[momof2TNboys]

Congrats on the new grandson!! I forgot to post this earlier. I am really partial to Tucker and Aiden and actually thought about these with my boys. I am off to HHI this weekend and will try to keep up from there.

 

[Cat0727]

Congrats on the baby boy!

Aww cute pictures with the characters! I haven't seen the fox from Pinnochio at WDW in a long time!

 

[raider97]

Congrats on the new grandson!! So happy to hear that he is healthy! How is Keeley feeling these days? Has Harper been over to play in her new playhouse yet? I bet she loved it! Sorry to hear Scales has yet to be found.

As for names, I really like Tucker too! My little one's middle name is Bryant which I love and Austin is another favorite here. My nephew is named Gannon which I think it unique.

What a great room! Love it! Too funny - all the texting pictures! My guess maybe too low. Wow, I'm impressed with all the characters you guys saw! Looks like Baylor had fun helping Jen pick out a pearl! I agree Jen, we need a picture of your necklace!! I agree with you, Anita, I love that airport monorail ride and nothing beats landing at MCO!!

Looking forward to hearing more!

 

[eandesmom]

Killer view

A character motherload

and a grandson!




Love the name Tucker. Also like Wyatt, Keenan and Logan.

 

[wsushocker]

We meandered around World Showcase and came upon a new celebrity....

​

Baylor heard The British Invasion playing in the UK. He has talked about seeing them for a long time so we made a brief stop promising to come back to listen to a full set on another day.

And we saw some naughty children who chose to listen from inside a grassy area that is fenced off.

We continued toward the International Gateway and ran into this fellow!

​

Back to the Beach Club and another Dismeet!

big mike! drinking a beer and carrying a baby....

And we saw some naughty children who chose to listen from inside a grassy area that is fenced off.

i saw some little girls doing this at MK during wishes once, too. my question is why do their parents allow them to do it? it's clearly a fenced-off area where no one is supposed to be and i'm sure the disney gardners work very hard to keep it looking the way it does. if you were allowed to be in that area, there would be other people sitting there, as well. that just bothers me!!!
