DIS Dads DDC XXXIV: The Original Home Of The DISDads!!!

Dads of the DIS talk about life, bacon, Disney, bacon, kids, bacon, cars, bacon, family life, and lots of other fun stuff! And beer. And bacon.
Hey guys, I've been lurking in the DIS boards for a while and finally decided that it was time for me to make some sort of contribution. Well, last night I stumbled on DIS Dads and I would love to join! I've read the rules and qualifications, and I think I qualify!! I want in! If you'll have me...

My name is Bill and I live in beautiful Flint, Michigan (well, outside of Flint). We're planning our first family trip to WDW in May and will be staying at CBR. My wife and I finally decided that our youngest daughter (4) was finally ready for the trip, so my DS (7) and DDs (6 and 4) will be making the trip with us.

Look out WDW, we're coming for you on Memorial Day!

:welcome: @BillyBoy1304 .
Interesting verbs you used in your intro...lurking and stumbled. Me thinks you'll fit right in! Welcome aboard, sir.
 
B\c we are an astute bunch here, I'm sure that many of you noticed the number next to my pirate emoticon increased by one very recently. This past Sunday I turned 40. I don;t consider it a big deal but the DW threw a surprise party for me. I was thinking that I should try and leverage this milestone into something Disney-related. I just haven't figured out what it should be.
 
Did you just make a Butch Cassidy references?

YUP. I'm thinking about Bolivia.

Welcome. Dues are payable in dole whips, bacon, beer, or cake. You mail about 800 of them to me, and then I distribute them to all the guys. This is the best plan. :lmao:

We stayed at CBR (Port Royale) when my dds were 6 & 4 and we had a great trip. It was our first time moving up from a value to a moderate resort. We liked it so much, we bought DVC.

Welcome to the club! If you're looking to make a contribution including well thought out and thought provoking discussions ... um, you're in the wrong place. But if you want to contribute to random Disney talk and fart jokes, you'll fit right in!

Happy Birthday. I think the traditional gift for 40 is "annual passes."

Welcome Bill! You'll find the initiation process is not that bad. The pain only last for a couple days.

As of right now it's on again with an arrival on the 25th. That would likely be a no park day and the 26th a MK if I recall the latest revisal. The only thing in our way now is $$, the dollar has been dropping rather alarmingly. Could curb a lot of spending. I set up a plan to at least get my ADRs in place, then book later in case a deal pops up.

Curent plan for us is the 20th-27th. What were you thinking on the 25th and 26th? I'll get to book a few days ahead of you. If we can find a common place, I can try to book for 8. Let me know what you guys may want to do.

Excellent. Now, if you can just me airfare or a dog sled team. :lmao:

DW says you have to get here on your own.
 
Just in case anyone wanted to know..........It's snowing again.:scared: :sad2::sad2::sad2::sad2: DD had a hoop game last night. Another victory and they are now at 10-3 on the season. DD played well, limited scoring as she goes to pad the assist stats. Too bad no one can hit an open lay up.:rolleyes: Two more game this weekend. DS finishes up his freshman season with games tomorrow and Friday. His team is undefeated so far with the two toughest teams left. Already beat them earlier this season, but they are strong teams. In practice, they beat the JV team yesterday. JV coach was not happy and made them stay late after practice to run sprints.

Have a good Wednesday!

Well done.

DS had a school game last night as well. We lost unfortunately but he had a good game with 12 points and probably 10 rebounds or so. One more game tonight for me with this team before I leave for 3 weeks.
