DIS Dads DDC XXIX: We’re Over 750 Dads, With A Disney Problem!

[declansdad]

I think there were some nice pics there Brent, I really only saw Jasmine.

Can she apply for a better position once her degree is finished or is it still "work your way up". I would think that with a higher education level and her excellent work history, they could find somewhere that would be agreeable.

Continued good luck!



We pass by that building every time we go to and from the airport to Disney. Always wanted to stop and go in. Lucky Duck!

she has a few options, she can extend till may 2014. you can only be in the program for one year at a time. she can come home in January, take another semester then apply for the college program again. she can apply at anytime to work full or part time. she can apply to work summer or seasonal. after her degree she can apply for a Disney professional intership.

Thanks, Dave!

So..., are you thinking of moving there so she can?

I wish, if we wait another 5 years, tammys pension will be another $1k per month higher. tams parents are up in age so we (she) kind-a-like to stay close.

That was very very bitter and uncalled for Scott!

Dave, have a wonderful vacation, and enjoy the time with your precious offspring.

we will brian. im going to try to get him on facetime so he can watch.

Here are some pics from the Parade Grand Marshall event...freshly uploaded


I can't help but wonder if it was our shirts that made us stand out, we were quite colourful, or it was stunts like pulling the Mayor of Main Street into out photo. This was the pic before we were approached by the CM


Portrait with our ears, and a look at what they said..there was also a certificate, free photos and cold water at the end!



In the car waiting backstage


During the parade



Plus I threw in some Princess Pics

I was a suit of armour at Storytime with Belle as well

Wow that was like The Holy Grail of WDW trips, How will you ever top that trip

If any of you are interested in a hockey pool, I've had a fairly simple Yahoo pool running for a few years and there have been a few of the guys play over the years.

Goals, assists, wins and shutouts are the categories and it is an auto-draft.

Here is a link to the pool http://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.com/league/discanada2008_2009

If it asks for a password it should be mickey.

Good morning!

Great pictures, Brent. Congratulations on being Grand Marshals of the parade. I'm sure that was an experience you'll never forget!

Some upcoming trip news.

In the past week or so we have put two trips in place for next year. DW's parents are planning on renting a house in Kissimmee next March so we will spend a week with them. Given their new found like for WDW I think we will get one park day as well as a day or two at Universal.

DW and I have also paid the deposit on a NCL cruise out of Boston, leaving on July 4th. Heads to Bermuda, stays there for three days and then returns to Boston. Hoping to to get a Red Sox game in on that trip as well.

Good morning gents! Trust we will all have a little magic in our day today thanks to Dave posting updates. Great pics Brent and again congrats of the parade marshall selection. DS was also picked as one of the guards for ETWB - taller one:

Spent the last hour and a half in middle school parent-teacher conferences. Fun". But, good news is that oldest dd is well liked, has decent grades, and made friends easily.

Morning gents.

Kids are tying their shoes and we're off to DS' s all day specialist appointment to see what is up with his ear.

Let me know when you're in Boston, I'll try to head into the city and meet up!

Where are you staying in Bermuda, off ship or on? I had an office there for a number of years and have stayed at most of the hotels on the island, there are some nice ones!

An office in Bermuda? What kind of company was that? Drug cartel? Arms dealers? Tax evasion banking specialists?
Of any of the above, the fringe benefits package must have rocked.

First, congratulations on the FL trip.

Second, are you crazy? Out of Boston? We had friends cruise out of Boston last year and the first 2 days were 10 foot seas. Here's hoping for good weather and smooth sailing.

Last, no need to hope. Let me know as soon as you have your dates what home date works best (the more notice the better). I'll grab the Sox seats behind the plate for you. How many of you will there be? I'll get the tickets for a game. I'll try to get enough so we all can go.
