Hi there Barb! I'm getting caught up... I still need to go back about 11 pages to read through everything! But I wanted to let you know that I did quite well with the list of 18 things to accomplish while on my trip! Thanks for the very well thought out items - you do know me so well! I'll give you a proper update soon.
In the mean time... I must read your final dining review and all the other fun stuff.
First, I must say how good it was to wake up this morning and find the name "emmysmommy" posted on my thread! Oh, and the fact that it was there four times, made it 4 times better!

It seems like you have been gone from here forever. I am so grateful to have been in touch (or should I say in "text"

) with you during your trip, but it didn't seem quite the same as reading all your great comments/posts here. I guess maybe I should have listed you as emmysmommy instead of Brenda in my phone contacts.
And I really, really can't wait to hear about your adventures in completing the items of my list. You really were quite the trooper, so thank you so much for indulging me with this.

Oh, and I must award you bonus points on #1 of the list, for the many DIS meets which you had and remembering to also take pictures. Very well done, Brenda!
Conicidently, many of your favorite desserts were ours as well!!! Honestly, I could just read dessert dining reviews such as this and be very happy.
Just for that almond crusted cheesecake (and maybe for the filet as well) - I NEED to go to Narcoosees!
Mmmm...can't wait to hear about and see all the yummy desserts you had on your trip!
I had to laugh HYSTERICALLY at this comment.... it will all be in context when I get to writing my dining review for HBD. I need to bookmark this since it is so prophetic.


For those Disers who know my story (you know who you are!

Shhhhh....)
Sorry I had to jump back in and comment on that one since I can't stop giggling!!
Oh, I absolutely can not wait to hear about this one!

My imagination is running wild just thinking about the possibilities.
Loved that Linda noticed an empty slushie glass!!!
I will certainly pop over to the UK Board and check in!

I agree about how we could have made a night of it. I told Barb she was there in spirit - and she certainly was!!
Barb: I shared your texts with the ladies... so glad that you kept everyone connected. We wouldn't have been able to do this without you connecting Tracy with us.
Uhhh... sorry for hogging your thread! I keep seeing one more post for which I must comment...
Thank you for including me (by texts) in your DIS meet. I really wish I could have been there with you all, slurping up (I mean daintily sipping

) one of those French slushies! But having the privilege of being the first DISer (not in attendance) to see the photos, was for me the next best thing to being there. And yes, I was most definitely there with you in spirit!
Oh, and I'm very happy that I was able to connect you with Tracy. Or as Tracy referred to it, "facilitating" your meeting (it's no surprise that Tracy works in Human Resources

). Anyway, I rather like that description, as it sounds so much more important than saying..."hooking you up".
And of course, feel free to "hog away" anytime the mood strikes!
