DIS Meet Dec 8 07

:confused: Where is everyone?!?!?!?!?!?!

:cool1: Happy Thursday Everyone!:cool1:

- Jennifer

It's been very busy around here. This week was our audit at work. It was very good but it takes time and lots of sweat. :headache:
 
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!

I'm up early because my neighbor's kids are outside screaming at the top of their lungs.:mad: This is their vacation home, and I guess they're delighted to be here. Yesterday they were in the pool, even though it was raining and 60 degrees. Welcome to summer at the Jersey Shore!

I'll take some new pictures of the construction at the Contemporary later this week, if I ever manage to get packed and get out of here! If anybody wants pictures of anything else, let me know and I'll try to oblige. I'll be leaving Wednesday morning and arriving Thursday afternoon.

OK, I have to get back into bed quickly and pretend to be asleep so that my DGD can wake me up to wish me Happy Mother's Day!

Enjoy your day everyone!

Beth
 
Happy Mother's Day !!!! :flower3:


DS has to work all day so while DH was at the Mets Game last night, DS took me out to Olive Garden :goodvibes It was so nice that DS thought of Mom and asked to take me to dinner since I won't see him til 10pm tonight. I am hoping he makes some money but I said it may be slow due to everyone takes Mom out and not order in.. He delivers for an Italian Cafe

DH and I are taking my Mom to Atlantic City tonight.. Wish us luck.. :thumbsup2


Oh and you will all think I'm crazy, if you don't already.. Build a Bear has an online game called Buildabearville and since I play all the time my store appointed me the BABV expert and pays me a half a days pay to play a half an hour a day :cheer2: When they heard the need to appoint someone in every store to be able to tell them what's new in the game and speak with concerned parents about the game they thought of me :love: Only cause I am the only nut in our store that actually plays the game regularily :laughing: It is alot of fun, I just remember to act like a kid, which for us Disney folks, it's not that hard..

:grouphug:
 

Happy Mothers Day!!!

Have a safe and great trip Beth!!!

Congrats to your DS Stacey!!

Well I just booked our room and flight for the Boys B-day, I tell you I need to stay away from the Budget Board, I swear I have never spent money like I do when I visit that board, but I couldn't pass up $360 for all 4 us to fly nonstop. Now off to buy our MNSSHP tickets.
 
Happy belated bdays to all. Jen, I am glad you guys had such a wonderful trip. It sounds awesome! I hope everyone had a happy mother's day. Mine wasn't so great. My eldest brother has been in the hospital for a month and took a turn for the worse on Saturday. We spoke to hospice yesterday, and he passed away this morning. Sigh, on one hand I am happy because he was so unhappy and he is now no longer suffering, but very sad, because 56 year old men shouldn't have to die :sad1: .

ps: as a 56yo male I agree with you. :sad2:

Saturday was also a sad day for my Mother and our family, saturday marked the 12 year anniversery of the day that someone decided to end my uncles life at the age of 30. They still have not found the person who did this and it is very hard on my mom.

We will pray that the person(s) who did this will be found and punished. You can rest assured that they will receive the punishment they deserve in the afterlife.

I got Disney mail yesterday--I got a parking pass for the Doll and Teddy Bear weekend! Of course, I won't have a car, but at least it was Disney Mail!

I am so angry at myself right now, I have been wanting to go to the Precious Moments events at WDW and kept checking to see when it was going to be and wouldn't you know they finally posted it (after plane tickets were bought) and it is 2 days after we leave. :headache: :headache:

Merryl,

:flower3: I'm very sorry for your family's loss. Yes, 56 is too young to pass. My family's thoughts and prayers are with you during your time of grief.


It is a sad day here at work, they just told us a co-worker passed away last night. He was 47. His wife found him slumped in his car.:sad1:

Judy,

:flower3: Sorry about your co-worker. That is a very sudden shock. I hope his wife will be okay after finding her husband's body. That can be very traumatic. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family. They will surely need it to cope and get through this sudden loss.


Warmest Regards,
Jennifer (& Family)

:banana: Have a great time Beth! Can I hide in your suitcase? Even though we just got back, I want to go "home". How is your grandaughter knowing you are going to WDW without her? I gave Bill a heck of a time going to WDW last September without the family. I did get a October WDW trip out of it. ;)

If possible (this is for Beth and/or Brack): When you go to Epcot . . . Could you possibly take a photo of the Pluto topiary in the sand with the beach ball? As you can tell, I didn't post any photos from our WDW trip. I took a total of 10 photos. :confused3 I was banned by my family due to my TWO full memory cards from our December WDW trip and the cruise. :rolleyes1 So, this was a "relaxation" trip picture-taking wise. I wanted a photo of Pluto, but we rushed by and I thought, "I will take a photo of it later". However, we went around World Showcase the opposite direction and I didn't get to take my photo.:sad2:

pooh: Say "Hi" to Pooh for Cole (& Tina;) ). You'll have to let me know how Crystal Palace was. I feel so bad we missed our ADR. :scared: I DID make us an ADR at CP for dinner in September before we attend MNSSHP. So, we will get there eventually.:woohoo:

party: Happy "early" Birthday Beth!party:

:thumbsup2 WDW is a great place to celebrate.

Oh and you will all think I'm crazy, if you don't already.. Build a Bear has an online game called Buildabearville and since I play all the time my store appointed me the BABV expert

:confused: How was AC? We hope to pass through LV on our way to DL next year. Bill and I like to try our luck at Black Jack and Craps. We plan to fly my Mom into LV from VA(That is, if she isn't living in TX by then. I'm working on it. Everytime I get on the phone with her, I make sure she talks with the kids too. :rolleyes:) My Mom has a brother that lives in CA and we wanted to take her with us to DL and to vist him.

:thumbsup2 Will loves to play on Buildabearville too. I think Jasmine (Wendy's daughter) does too. We didn't even know there was such a thing until Will saw a commercial on tv. He was rushing around the house looking for the certificates for our bears and reindeers from Build-A-Bear. It is like Webkinz and now Ty Beanie Babies has something like it too. He could be on there for hours if I didn't keep an eye on him. :surfweb:

Thanks for the birthday wishes!

I plan on taking loads of pictures. I average about 250 a day on a regular trip, so with the Flower and Garden Show and the Doll and Teddy Bear Weekend, I will probably take more. I'm bringing my laptop so that I can clear out my memory cards each night. My friend also takes tons of pictures. Our only agreement is no pictures of each other unless requested!

My granddaughter is OK with my trip. She gave me a long list of things that she "needs" from WDW;). They include anything "Hannah Montana" and anything from Basin. She's becoming a very "girly girl". I also had to promise to post some pictures each day for her, so that she can follow our trip and make sure that we haven't gotten into trouble or forgotten to do something. I'll post the links here, too, so that you can make sure that I'm doing the right things.

I've sent myself a reminder to take that picture of the Pluto topiary. In fact, I sent myself one for each of my planned Epcot days. Maybe I'll actually remember!

I'll be sure to say Hi to Pooh. He's my friend's favorite character, and she definitely wants pictures with him!

OK, I'd better get back to pretending that I'm working so that I can actually convince my boss that I need a vacation!

:lmao: I laughed outloud when I read that. I remember being at work on the Friday before a holiday or vacation and got absolutely nothing accomplished on those days.

:thumbsup2 I have some photos to post of The Jonas Brothers for your grandaughter. I'll post them when you get back.

Have a magical trip. :wizard:
