"Diva" Trip - "Cliff Notes" p.236 OLD THREAD!

[MrsPinup]

Okay tag fairy - surely there were some "tags' that came out of the Diva trip???

I know there was something from Rancho the first day, but I forgot!

I think Capri should get one for the "silent coyotes" Jazz needs to be "the 5th Billy Hill member" or just "Billy!!" Jen should be "don't text and drive" as she did on Indie. J/k

I also liked the, "You must return the jeep" *me shaking head no* from Thursday, also on Indy.

I am now on page 22. You ladies are chatty pants! Back to grading pictures and catching up later....

I LOVE this idea!

I am 14 pages into the thread and wanted to stop a sec and mention that I would love to help with the M&G committee

Funny you should mention the Meet and Greet committee. I was just coming on to announce that I was in touch with Wendy, and Laurie yesterday and Capri last night, and this is who we have on the committee so far:


Capri/disney-super-mom
Laurie/Diznee Luver
Tammy/TTLee
Wendy/wendypooh
January/Daisy_77

And they were looking for one more person, sort of as an extra or back-up, and I had told Capri I would do it, but if you are interested, then I'd be happy to add you as the final member if you'd like? You'd probably be the last member though so speak now or forever hold your peace. lol

Ugh. This dumb time change is going to screw my night up at work, darnit! At least I have something to look forward to tomorrow (provided my cousin doesn't cancel on me again).

I hear ya. It's always the big question for me.

Darn that money thing sometimes! Part of what I just realized is that we're supposed to be taking a mother-daughter trip to Vegas in August for my mom and her twin sister's 50th birthday. I keep trying to block that out of my mind because I really, really, really dislike my 2 cousins and I cannot stand being in the same vicinity as them for an afternoon, let alone a couple of days in close quarters. I'm not so sure how much of that my sister and I are footing cost wise and then I've got the September trip. If I can get all 3 roomies for the September trip and can swing a few more in October I might still be able to do both.

All these posts by me as a way of making up for being MIA for a week...

Jessica~ Could you pretty please make me a purty name tag? I am sure you know I LOVE Aurora ....pinks, light blues, or silver are the colors I like.

 

[toocherie]

Thanks for the reminder, Kelly! I hate time changes.

You could always do what I do and just don't change your clocks. Never depend on the clocks on my house because each room is different depending on whether it is set to standard or daylight. (I may actually break down and get them all the same this year.)

[TheColtonsMom]

Jazz or Jess or Belle Ella, lady of a thousand faces, photographer extroidinaire' vinylmation crazy girl & Duffy Mommy could you pretty please make me a new siggy that has my "real" name?

I think to commemorate our most recent trip I would like one of our 2 best character experiences so either Brer Bear or Daisy Duck make the color whatever looks best except try to stay away from pink Thanks!

You got it

I'm tempted to work on them now but I told myself no, not until I get another part of my TR done, otherwise I'll never get anything done.

I hope it all works out for you! And if you do make it out to Vegas, and need or want to escape for a quick lunch or something, let me know. We could meet up. If not, I understand. It's hard to get away when you're with family.

Speaking! Yay!

LOL Okay, got it! I'll make an "official" post in a sec and go ahead and add your names to the front page. I think the five of you will make a kick butt Meet and Greet team!!

I need those automatic clocks that do it for you. I have one and that's the one clock in our house we know is right. All the others show a different time.

Jessica~ Could you pretty please make me a purty name tag? I am sure you know I LOVE Aurora

I had her make me a Megara one, which I love, but then I changed my mind. She's working on a Maleficent one for me now. Looks like we'll be sworn enemies. lol
Or at least our signatures will be.

Hi Jessica, if you could squeeze me in, I'd like a Quiet Coyote one - LOL!

Speaking of colors - how did the t-shirt colors work for everyone this year??? I think they are a good mix (especially the pink one ;-)

 

[mommaU4]

Okay so it's official! This is our Meet and Greet committee for our 5th Annual DIS Diva trip!!


Capri/disney-super-mom
Wendy/wendypooh22
Tammy/TTLee
Laurie/Diznee Luver
January/Daisy_77
Jen/MrsPinup


I think it's an awesome team full of fun, creative and energetic ladies! I am really looking forward to hearing their final decision on what the Meet and Greet party theme will be.

Just to recap for everyone, these are some of the fun ideas they have to consider so far, along with some links for reference:

~1. An 80's party! Wake me up before you go-go! Bring on the acid washed jeans and Aqua Net. http://www.partycheap.com/searchresults.asp?Cat=694&click=2&gclid=CNqp6bzeyacCFQwFbAodqydfEg


~2. A fiesta theme. Come in your funkiest Ugly Betty poncho and sombrero. Shake your maracas. Dig into chips, salsa, and margaritas. Pinata time! Not sure what we'd exchange for this one. http://www.orientaltrading.com/part...79-1-1.fltr?categoryFromSearch=true&rd=fiesta


~3. A pirate theme. Come in your coolest (hottest?) pirate gear, don't forget the eye patch. Contest for best pirate imitation. Bring on the rum. We can exchange little treasure chests filled with pirate's booty. http://www.orientaltrading.com/ui/b...305&sp=true&categoryFromSearch=true&rd=pirate


~4. A Christmas theme. Come in your tackiest holiday sweater or shirt. We could exchange filled Christmas stockings. Have some spiked egg nog. Can't think what else is holiday-ish. http://www.orientaltrading.com/holi...5-0.fltr?categoryFromSearch=true&rd=christmas


~5. A movie night/red carpet theme. Popcorn. Movie? Or awards ceremony? (award for funniest, for nicest, for whatever??) http://www.orientaltrading.com/ui/s...archMain&Ntk=all&Ntx=mode+matchallpartial&N=0


~6. A very merry Unbirthday! To you! To me? Yes, you. Who doesn't love birthday cake, and presents? http://www.suite101.com/content/how-to-throw-an-unbirthday-party-a210089




***If ANYONE else has any fun themes they'd like to share, please feel free to do so. Let's give our Meet and Greet team lots of ideas to work with.***

 

[Belle Ella]

Hi Jessica, if you could squeeze me in, I'd like a Quiet Coyote one - LOL!

Speaking of colors - how did the t-shirt colors work for everyone this year??? I think they are a good mix (especially the pink one ;-)

The pink was perfect! I had no trouble spotting everyone, although before the Billy Hill show I was too afraid to go up and say hi to anyone just yet, lol. I remember spotting some ladies on Main Street and then gathering around the Golden Horseshoe and I kind of just hung back a little. Don't know why!! The only hard part about the purple was how many other groups had the same color shirts that day, lol.

I hope it all works out for you! And if you do make it out to Vegas, and need or want to escape for a quick lunch or something, let me know. We could meet up. If not, I understand. It's hard to get away when you're with family.

That could definitely be a possibility. I had been tempted to just be there for their birthday only and then part ways and try to squeeze some Disney time in before going back home. Details are still being worked out, lol.

I pink!! I personally hope we keep a pink day on the next trip. But that's just me being selfish.

I was like you on my first trip! Right away I saw Trudi and Sarah, and went up to where they were standing and sort of pretended not to know them and commented on their pins. Then I finally told them who I was. Why?? I dunno. Just shy I guess.

Would you pretty please add me to the list, Jazz? I love blues and greens and the Swedish Chef.

You got it!

I managed to get a TR update (BILLY will be in the next one, yay) so I think I'm getting a head start on them before I go down for my nap before work tonight.

I second having another pink day next year. And I'm not generally a pink fan. My favorite color? Teal! Which shall make an appearance in my hair tomorrow. I am so excited.

And I sure did have a shy moment. I think at one point I was kind of keeping away but following a few of the Divas. I wish I could remember who it was, but I started aimlessly taking photos while I could still keep an eye on them and debate as to whether or not I would go say hello, lol.
