That's cool. Now she can get that CM discount on the VGF points.
Is it ok of all visiting dads search her out for pictures now?

I probably would have done better to take Spanish as we have migrant workers in my communities here from Mexico and other countries.



I was really happy getting that Boardwalk contract for $67 a point. I need to go see what we paid for the BLT points, but I think it was $100 per point. The DVC contracts, direct thru Disney, are just ridiculous. The VGF are $145 a point for DVC members, but I think they will go up to $160 per point for non-members in June. That is crazy.

so, I have been away from any news or tv lately, who is left in the nhl playoffs?

Is there still hockey going on? I thought it ended a week and a half ago...

So when I get home, DW tells me ouryoungest is hard at work inviting kids to her birthday party.....problem being, she isn't getting one this year just can't stretch the $$ thanks to the trip. Somehow she keeps "forgetting"

You may THINK she isn't getting one... if she keeps up her tactics, you just may have 20 kids knocking at your door.

Morning guys. 4 day weekend coming up for this guy. Can't wait.

 

[twokids0204]

Good Morning gentlemen!

By the way....Florida is "hotter then sin" right now (I just had my AC serviced in preparation) is what looks like one of the hotter summers. If you fellas are headed to Disney in the next few months...

BE PREPARED!

We don't have that same problem here... down to 4 degrees celcius... aka a warm winter day!

Has anyone else worn these?

Best Park Shirts I have used

The Omni-Freeze shirts from Columbia...I thought it was a gimmick at first, but I picked up the shirt for golfing about a month ago and purchased two more on the way home. They are now going to be my go to Park shirts at Disney this June.

Wow... looks very cool!

Hey Guys! Glad I finally joined ya on the boards. Been having fun on our trips to WDW with my DW and 3 kids. Already helped a few friends plan during spring break and Easter. Love sharing the magic with everyone and of course gets tagged as the Disney nut.
My name is Jeremy and we live 1000 miles north of WDW! We love going down during MNSSHP since its my wife's favorite holiday and offseason. However this year is our 10 yr anniversary and we are cruising in the Bahamas instead of Disney..... I hope Mickey will forgive us.
Next year I have a conference in Feb for my work and then in June my DD has a dance team parade down Main St USA! So two trips for 2014!!!
Looking forward to getting to know everyone on DIS Dads
Happy planning our next trips!!!!
Jeremy

Jeremy....

Where exactly is 1000 miles North of WDW?

I guess I didn't tell you the entire story. paid $40k for the first house, sold it for $80 and paid $95k for this one in 1990. jumped up to $190k in value and has slid back to about $160k. its starting to come around again.
when be bought into dvc, a night at the cbr is what a point cost. so it may have seem cheap into todays standards but in 1999.
we have been very,very lucky. we both always had good jobs, live in a 1600 sq ft home, plenty for three people and never spent over our heads. stuck a lot of our money away.
the only place or thing we really did was go to Disney. which, in our old age, with our investments and living the way we did for thirty years, we have some money stuck away. dvc was just another tool to save money on our trips. ok, people will argue, its not the cheapest way to go. no, it isn't. heck, I could sleep in a mini van in a rest stop on i4 and eat Cheetos for a week and just pay for park tickets if I really wanted cheep. but the point of dvc is for the most part the points stay the same. they can add a point here or there but they have to take away from here or there. so, the one bedroom at okw in 1999 on December 1st is the same as it is dec 1st, 2039. round numbers, I paid $60 per point, today, you pay $140. ten years from now, $200,$250. your point is still worth $140.

You're a wise man Dave...

5am this morning I thought I was having a nightmare, my wife screams and seconds later comes running to the bedroom almost beating me yelling we have a mouse in the house, it's 5am what do you expect me to do, I guess she thought I was Turtleman and was ready for live action, I got to the kitchen and she said it's under the oven, so I slammed a cabinet and it ran rite passed me, as she's screaming I say there he goes She's yelling do something, so I tell her to get the guns, she said let's be real, I said exactly it's 5am what do you expect me to do, I told her I'll take care of it and went back to bed

After I dropped my son off at school, I went to Lowe's and picked up my supplies (cost less then $10) my weapon of choice is the glue traps, I set up 8 of them in various locations and went too work, sure enough I get a call from my wife when she got home and she put my son on to tell me the news, He starts off with Dad woo-woo-woo live action the mouse is caught, saying it was bad because it scared Mommy, Next my wife gets on the phone telling me they have to leave the house until I get home to get rid of it, I made a phone call to my friend down the street to dispose of it, when I got home it was all

I'm leaving the glue traps out for a few days just in case it had some friends, there would be no rest tonight if it was still at large

Nicely done Ron...

I tried the glue traps at WDW, sure his foot stuck to it, but Mickey just bent down and pealed it off.
