Calling all Kentucky Bluegrass DVCers

Does anyone take their Christmas decorations with them to WDW to decorate?

Last year we took a string of lights for the balcony at BWV because we read on DIS that there were plugs available. We never located the plugs so we ended up using them in the villa instead to decorate the tall counter in the kitchen (away from the water of course!)
 
We aren't going to decorate our 1BR villa this year but we did decorate our hotel room in 08' when we were there on Christmas day:santa:. That time we had a tiny tree we decorated, along with all of the kids stockings, and we decorated the window with lights and clings.

I would like to go during Christmas but have not been able to talk DW into it. I have a small tree that I put up at work and we could bring their stockings. It sounds like a lot of fun!
 
Hi fellow Disers !

I am a Kentuckian.
Grew up in Shelbyville, KY
Went to Georgetown College ...go TIGERS !
DH went to UK ...go CATS

Our daughter went to Centre College and played soccer all 4 years. Loved the study abroad program and spent a semester in London.

Our son was the only one that went to college outside of Kentucky. He is a freshman at Bradley University in Peoria, IL.

We are huge Disney fans and our "home " is Beach Club Villas. We love it there and enjoy the walk to Epcot and the entertainment on the Boardwalk.

Our next trip is MONDAY! Have CP reservations at Le Cellier for cheese soup and pretzel breadsticks :). Then to see Whoopie. It's just a girl trip this time but DH gets to come with me in January for the Goofy ( half and full marathon). I think we have participated in the half or full marathon for 8 years now. I always make that reservation for BCV 11 months out.

We live in Lexington, KY and I rarely tell people I am going to Disney any more. They roll their eyes and think I am really strange. I STILL do something new and different every time I go.

Welcome aboard and have a great trip. I don't care if they roll their eyes, I still tell people I'm going to Disney.

Hi and welcome also!! We did the CP with Whoopie last year and also ate at Le Cellier. I am wishing now for WDW as I look out at the gray, misty, typical, Kentucky December day. Oh well, I'll be there in a little over a month. Great to meet another KY DISer...... Laura
 
OMG here we are 4 days from leaving and my BFF is talking about backing out because her 13yr old son got his cell phone confiscated at school until Dec. 17th and her ex won't let her talk to him while we're gone:scared1:. WTH!!:mad: If I had ever dreamed that she would possibly back out at the last minute I never would have invited her in the first place.:sad2:

I've already forked out the $$ for a t-shirt for her to wear at Epcot, not to mention the fact that I got her a front row seat for La Nouba that I was going to give her as her :santa: gift.

I told DH if she does back out that she won't be getting back the $$ she's given me so far for her park tix and DDP. I am just :sick: about this.

Thanks for letting me vent. It's bad enough the space shuttle has been postponed AGAIN til February and we won't get to experience that chance of a lifetime and now this. :headache:

Oh well, DH is figuring out a new plan B for dining. :idea: If she doesn't go we'll try the QS DP for the first 4 days and see how we like it.

We are also leaving on Monday! Will be staying at BLT this Dec. we are usually at OKW. We have CP ressies at Rose & Crown then see Whoopie on Friday. We saw her last year and loved it, so I was thrilled to see her on the schedule this year. Will be at the Christmas party on Thursday. Hopefully the temperature will be a little warmer by then. Can't wait to start looking at all the Christmas decorations. We love our Dec. trips! :santa:

I never mind telling people we are going to Disney, they're just jealous that they are not going! ;)
Have a great trip!

Welcome to the KY DVC Clan:banana: See ya down there. If you can, turn on the heater when you get there:rotfl2: Yummy Le Cellier!!

gray and misty? Looks cold and WHITE to me:rotfl2: We got another 2 inches of snow last night. We are looking forward to the warmer weather in Florida.

So many around us have stopped asking where we are going and have also shifted to more like when:rolleyes1

Here is what it looks like in the southern Louisville area this morning.

Well, we did not have any snow here, but it is cold. Brrr!!!

OMG here we are 4 days from leaving and my BFF is talking about backing out...

Going through the same thing here. Originally, MIL retired from work and we invited her go to WDW with us. Then, somehow BIL and his family got invited. But, we could not book at 11 month because of him. Then, he wants to go a different time of the year. This has just added to more relative Holiday turmoil. I mean, we are giving everyone a free room with our DVC points and all it has caused is stress. We won't invite friends or family ever again because of this experience.

What a shame you didn't get snow. It looks so pretty:goodvibes. And knowing in a few days it will be 25+ degs warmer:love:

As for BFF update, BFF has told "she will go". I still don't know for sure. Everyone is different. I want her to go so she can "RELAX". :woohoo: She needs it.
 
I am so excited to see this thread! A Kentucky girl, who lives in Louisville, but visits WDW at least twice a year. We do not own at DVC but are seriously thinking about it. We proudly wear our Kentucky Wildcat Mickey shirts and sweatshirts whenever we go!

Welcome to the KY board. Welcome to the fun!!
 
Our lil ole Ky DVC family just keeps growin and growin :thumbsup2. Welcome aboard all you newbies, glad you finally found us.:banana: I wonder how many more are lurking out there.


On a sour note, I noticed tonight that a couple of my Christmas decorations are missing from the yard. :confused: Some stinkin low life stole my hologram lighted packages right out of the yard, and they tried to steal our big inflatable Santa. What kinda person STEALS Christmas decorations? :mad:
 
T-Minus 3 hours til we leave to head to WDW:banana::banana::banana:

Everything is ready, the rental car is packed, DD is fed and settled at BFFs house across the street:thumbsup2

Only thing left is for me to take my final at 5pm then DH and I are southbound.:yay::yay::yay: It's finally here.:woohoo::woohoo:
 
Greetings Ya'll from Kidani!! We have 10+ animals outside of our room last night. It was awesome. We can't wait to have fun and relax!!

Welcome! Are you a resort mover or do you have a favorite? Also, you need to tell that Wilcat quarterback to stop studying so hard at 3:00 AM - bad things happen!
