DISmoms 3! If the Tiara fits... 5/13-5/17/11 Complete! 11/8!

I wonder if that's why I kept wanting to "salute" the whole trip? :confused3

I just kept thinkin- WOW- she is SOOO patriotic!!:thumbsup2

Hey- do any Dismoms have anything to say besides me??? HMMMMM????

Although, obviously, whatever I said was RIGHT because it was FIRST....
:rolleyes1

:rolleyes1

I always let you go first... ya know, "age before beauty." :rotfl2:

And yes, I will post a lengthy response VERY soon!!!!!
 
Ellen, :thanks: for the link. Time to catch up. :goodvibes

All caught up. I cannot believe they didn't have your crab tostadas. :faint: The drinks look fabby though. Can't wait to try The Ditch!


:woohoo: for First Class. :thumbsup2

You're going to love the Ditch...I have a feeling...:rolleyes:

I'm so happy you're here!! :yay:


I SWORE I subscribed to this thread when you first linked it and today I was like, how could there be no updates on the DISmoms thread? Of COURSE there have been updates! I just wasn't subscribed! Well I"m here now and I'm ready for more! Loving it so far!!

Yea, sure....:rotfl: I hate when that happens!! So glad you are subscribed now!!
And hey- only 1 more week to go!!! :dance3: :cheer2: :yay: :woohoo:




Just got done reading podsnel's (or as I just learned her real name is Ellen) TR with 2 of her boys over Spring Break and enjoyed it so much I thought I couldn't miss this one! Although, all this talk of this 'rita character is maing me unusually thirst!

This was the first year for me flying in for our annual trip, having moved back to SC this time last year. I am NOT a good flyer, so thanx to my new friend, "Mr Blue Pill" I was able to get on a plane and make it safely to Orlando!

I also found it odd she would take Viagra prior to flying - although I can there could be confusion since directions for both meds could read "Take 1 tablet by mouth 1 hour prior to expected activity" :lmao:!

:rotfl::rotfl: That's all just really funny- thanks for the laugh! :laughing:

Caught up. You guys meet up made me teary eyed. It had to be so special. Dis meet ups are the best.

Yea- it's great to meet the people you spend so much time with online!! :hug:
The Apple and chocolate looks so yummy.

Our trip was great hot but great. We didn't get to spend to much time in the parks as we wanted to because of the heat. Avy can't handle heat so we spent a lot of time at GKTW but loved every second of it :cloud9:

I am sorry about the heat for Avy, but glad you all had so much fun at GKTW!! Are you doing a TR?



The Ditch looks like it'd be a BLAST! I definitely need to check that out next year! MARGARITAS = :thumbsup2 & :love:

Yes- you do!! It's a fun, friendly and delicious place- especially with them bringing back the tostadas! :cheer2:

Great new update - and great photos!

I cannot believe they dumped the tostadas! They were still there in February as Tom and I discussed getting them, but hopefully they will come back.

How fun the CM at The Ditch still remembered you! :thumbsup2

I think we missed the tostadas by a matter of days....how sad is that! I'll have to double up next time to make up for it! :thumbsup2 They are DEFINITELY coming back- they tweeted it at La Cava. :yay:
 

Okay when we finally roll into the Ditch, after beating all our followers down with a stick and running over all the small children, the TEARS started. I mean tears :confused3 why tears? Because we are all so darned happy that is why. I had talked with Ellen on the phone a handful of time and never spoken to Evie or Joan before except thru the wonders of Facebook so it was a mystery what everyone was going to be like...insert scary music here...:rotfl2:...So when I saw them it was like seeing family that you hadn't seen in year. Litterally Joan and I jumped hugging for like five minutes. Ellen just stood there--laughing at me I thought and then I realized she was soooo happy we all got a long.

I think I had the avacado 'rita. I had never had one before. How you ask could one not have a 'rita in the ditch when they are wolrd know? My family is the answer. Seriously, we hit the 3 amigos ride but the kids were melting down last October and there was no hope for me to go in. Darn family!:mad: Oh well I knew I was coming back. I like the avacado. It was really smooth and the hybiscus salt was AWESOME! I will say the shrimp in the shot glass was spicy, but then again we consider black pepper an exotic spice in Minnesoder. :goodvibes Seemed like it went so fast but we flew out of there on a mission to get back to BWVs to meet Lonnie and to award all of the moms the covetted DISmom pin.
dismom-2.jpg

(got a ton of questions what the deal with that special pin was--highly recommend creating a pin if are doing an extened day trip. Shirts are great but this is something that you can wear every day...zazzle has a great site for them )
Once back at BWV, the fun continued. I think I started the trip off right by making everyone laugh with the goodies I pulled out of my bag..cups, pins, chocolate, special treats galore...GO GIRL!!! I knew I was with the best girls ever because they got my teen-aged boy sense of humor (yup..i'm a teenaged boy when it comes to humor some times...LOL:eek:
Now I know Miss Ellen has wonderful photos to share with us and I am grateful for that because even though I had two cameras with me I didn't mangage to take but a hand ful of photos. But the ones I have are AWESOME!
 
Well ladies lOok at what the cat dragged in!! ;). I'm so glad I haven't missed much yet. I am still plodding away on my sad cracked screen phone ( why? Oh because I didn't get one of those ultra cool iPhone cases ya'"ll have) and still no computer though I hope to have that back this weekend.)

Have you ever posted on here at length from your phone ? It's painful. I am waaay ahead of my keyboard! Anyhow I missed you gals!

For those not in the know I do get to make a cameo later on! Just busted my way in and made myself a DisMom! And I am actually official too-I have the button to prove it!!! (thanks Laura!!!). I did not, however, have
A tiara...but being the semi-red headed stepsister of the group...not sure if I've earned that yet! (lol)

I'm so looking forward to reading!! :)
 
I will admit it, I am a DISmoms’ groupie, vacationing vicariously through DISmoms’ trip reports. I anxiously wait for tickers to be added to each one of the DISmoms postings knowing I will soon be laughing my head off at the antics of the wild and crazy women. :cool1:

Umm, perhaps I should say, I am not a stalker just a bored middle-aged lady who is too busy to create her own DISmoms group but still has the desire to travel with friends who do not call me “Mommy” or “Sarah’s Mom”. :rolleyes: Although, in reality, I love being called "Mommy" and "Sarah's Mom".

So here is my question to all of you groupies, do you spend as much time on Facebook as you do on Disboards? I know I do not.
 

AFter our OJ Race through the IG and Epcot..... Laura and I finally arrived.

To this.....

And the question I had been waiting for......

"What can I get for you?"

Well, HELLO!!!!! It's now officially DISmoms Round 3 for me!!!!! :cool1:

I was so excited to be reunited with Ellen for the third year, Joan for the second year, and meeting Evie for the first time ever!

We all clicked, as usual. It's like Ellen keeps bringing these sweet strays to our DISmoms trips, and we love them all! Please, mom, can I keep her? I promise to feed her, and walk her, and give her lots of tequila!!!! Please please please?????

After we got a a little silly, and shed a couple of tears, some more than others.... no names will be mentioned...... OK, Joan? See? I promised not to mention your waterworks!!!!, it was then time to head out and get checked in to BWV and meet up with Lonnie!!!

On the way back.....

Great update ladies!!!! Love the DIS mom pins! So cute!

Love the 2BR villa at the BW and the view is spectacular. OK - I REALLY need to stay there for F&W 2012 (because I won't be going for 2011 - boo hoo!)

Tequila and water works - I think I would fit right in as one your strays!:lmao:

I consider myself a Dismom groupie also!I love these reports & I would love to do a girls trip sometime! I spend lots more time here than on my FB page!:rotfl:

Yes, I have plenty of photos- I'll try to update this morning-

We all loved the pins SO MUCH!! :yay: They were a GREAT idea! :yay::yay: And the goodie bags were awesome- especially the tassles...:rolleyes1


Love those pins! What a cute idea! :)

Yea, Laura really made us happy with those!!

:lmao: Black pepper is super spicy around here along with pepperoni pizza in my family :rotfl2:

Timmy is like that- I think maybe we need to ship him WEST! :rotfl:

Well, it's about time!! :laughing: That really stinks about your computer and your phone- if you take it to an Apple store, they can fix the cracked screen. You have an iphone, right? Anyway- hope you have your computer back this weekend- we all miss YOU, TOO!!! :hug:

Great update ladies!!!! Love the DIS mom pins! So cute!

I really, REALLY enjoyed that view, MEK- it was so cool to just leave the door open and here the music all the time. LOVED IT!!!:thumbsup2 Seeing the pics makes me REALLY miss it!

I consider myself a Dismom groupie also!I love these reports & I would love to do a girls trip sometime! I spend lots more time here than on my FB page!:rotfl:

This whole groupie thing is crackin me up!! :rotfl2:
 
So we had to leave and get back to BWV, because we knew Lonnie would be arriving soon- AND they had texted me that our room was ready. On the way....

IMG_1550.jpg


Look! They're inside, too!!

He was new since my last visit-

IMG_1554.jpg


IMG_1555.jpg


I was VERY intrigued by this-

IMG_1556.jpg


and REALLy wanted to go in to check it out, but I knew that Lonnie was almost here, and I figured I had PLENTY of time to go back that weekend...:sad2:

Soon we were checking out the villa and the view!

IMG_1557.jpg

IMG_1561.jpg


I can totally see why a Boardwalk view is one of the MOST desired views out there- and lucky us, we got it at 7 months with non-BW points! :banana: Inside was pretty, too-

the studio portion of the 2bdrm-

As you can see, our luggage arrived, and I made a call to get my Owner's Locker. Laura gave us all pins, and these adorable cups filled with candy and tassles...:rolleyes: well....tassles for some of us. But sometimes, what happens on a DISmom trip, STAYS on a DISmom trip...so there will be no pics of THAT!! :rotfl:

Kara, however, planned on making full use of ME time with Laura's GO GIRL...

IMG_1580.jpg


And Laura did her best Tin Man impersonation...

IMG_1581.jpg


Oh...MAN!!! :rotfl2: Minnie Soder lake girls are PREPARED!!! :rotfl: We ran down to get Lonnie & all her BOOZE, because Lonnie was going to stock us up! :woohoo: On the way down, as we zig zagged through the hallways (because we weren't quite sure where we were, yet!)-

IMG_1582.jpg


So, SO happy to see Lonnie! And WOW she came prepared!! We got a bellman to help us haul the luggage & massive amounts of cocktailing supplies up to our villa, and minutes later...we were out on the balcony, toasting to 5 days of crazeee DISmom fun!!

Don't you LOVE the glasses? Lonnie brought THOSE, too! :goodvibes

Up next- we're goin back to EPCOT- to have dinner with the HOT WAITERS at Tutto Italia...right, Kara?? :rotfl:

 
The villa is gorgeous and i am encouraged to hear you were able to get it at 7months! :thumbsup2 If anything could tear me from the Beach Club, it might be BW.

Love those DIS Mom pins and tiaras. Ahh, the waiters of World Showcase. :rolleyes1. I believe our carefully conducted research concluded Via Napoli to have the best "selection.". ;)
 
Looks like the trip got off to a great start. Can't wait to read the next installment. :cool1:

Hey stranger!! :goodvibes How have you been? So happy to see you've found us and our little tale...

The villa is gorgeous and i am encouraged to hear you were able to get it at 7months! :thumbsup2 If anything could tear me from the Beach Club, it might be BW.

Love those DIS Mom pins and tiaras. Ahh, the waiters of World Showcase. :rolleyes1. I believe our carefully conducted research concluded Via Napoli to have the best "selection.". ;)

I have to say, it is a very different feel from BCV- but I do like it alot, and am glad we added on there (although BCV will always be our favorite, too). Nice to have another place to stay in that EPCOT area, ya know? :yay:

And the waiters....hmmmm....we'll see.....:rolleyes1
