We did. We pushed a bunch of table together and had a long row of DIS people chowing down on various food court selections. We ate and talked and then went over to the
Disney Store together. It was good to see everyone, and it was especially nice for some people to get to meet for the first time.
Have a great meet today! It sounds like fun.
I hope they have some good shopping at the Disney Store. I'll be in Fernandina Beach, and there's a Disney Store in Jacksonville.... hmmmmmm, that gives me an idea
I got a set of the Mickey plates like you got. They were 40% off. I think Marc and Anita got a few sets of those, too.
I'm sitting here at work on a break and I was thinking about all of you and your DISmeet today.
So excitting!!! Wish I was there!!!
If I was there I would order Chick fil A for my lunch and I would happily go along for the shopping at the Disney Stores.
Have fun ladies...drive safe everyone!
Can't wait to see pics and hear what fun stuff you came home with.
Several people did get Chick-Fil-A. Some of us got Chinese. Subway was also represented.
The rental car Jill got was so smooth. It was a Camry, and it a lot of storage space in the trunk. The drive itself was not bad at all, as the girls slept some both ways and they watched a movie for some of the time they were awake. They did very well, so it was a pleasant drive.
so sad to hear about that diser! We had some bad storms here on Wed night. I was on my way home and just praying I made it there. We made it home fine and there was no activity at our house (it was mostly in the town where we work) I don't think I have ever seen the sky soo black! There were tornados but none ever touched down. Thankfully!
Caleb fell asleep while we were on Nemo in Epcot and was out for a long time. He also slept during the whole Move it shake it parade too! LOL!
We went to the Columbus zoo on sunday and we saw an opaki (I think it is called?) the one that they have on the safari in AK that has the zebra looking behind. So it was my disney touch there. Caleb also lost his sippy cup in the monkey pit. Dropped it right down there...luckily there was a barrier there so at least the monkeys could not get it! LOL!
Hope you all have a great meet and a wonderful weekend! We are heading to my two nieces birthday parties tonight and then up to the Cleveland area tommorow for my niece's birthday party tommorow! Caleb is very excited for cake and ice cream. He said "I like cake" "I like parties". though not to sure where he would remember being at a party! LOL!
You almost go your animal right. It was an okapi. And to further your educational does for the day, do you remember which animal it is most closely related to?
And to further my education - I do know that you don't start sentences with
and or end them in prepositions, but I do it anyway.
I bet those monkeys would have quite enjoyed playing with Caleb's sippy cup!
We were going to make a bathroom and food stop yesterday on the way to Atlanta, so we pulled off teh exit at Ringgold. We saw the trees chopped and cropped as we pulled off the ramp, but when we turned onto the road, all we could see were destroyed restaurants and gas stations. I'm putting up pictures of that when I tell about the DIS meet. It was really sad. We thought about all the people who were in those buildings when the destruction happened and knew it had to be a horrible experience.
Just wanted to pop in to say hope you had a great meet in Atlanta!! Wish I lived closer!!! Also have a wonderful holiday weekend!!!
Just order pins and lanyards for our July trip...have to get Solomon and Abby started early!!!
They will enjoy pin trading. It's fun to watch kids make their choices and then smile so big when they receive a brand new pin.
I forgot to mention that I was watching HGTV this afternoon and on monday june 6th @ 8pm...a new show is coming on called ....My Yard goes Disney....they are making over peoples backyards disney style. Its definitely set on my dvr. After that is a new show called House Hunters on Vacation. Not sure how that one is going to work..if its just picking a vacation...or are they buying a house while they are on vacation...guess I will have to wait until june 6th to find out! LOL!
We are absolutely going to be watching HGTV's new Disney show!
A float and an iced coffee sounds good right now. IF i had to choose one, i'd go for a float since it's late at night.
5 weeks!!!
Hope you all had a fun meet today. I saw one of the pictures and I instantly smiled.
My favorite float is chocolate ice cream and rootbeer. That probably sounds gross to most, but I love it!
We did have fun. It was so nice to be in a Disney Store again. We went to two of them.
*******************************************
So, we did our big Atlanta meet yesterday. It wasn't as big as it could have been, as Heather's bunch went to the lake (schmake), Darlene was having some eye issues, and Ronda's family had a family graduation activity. Also, Dawn had mentioned a couple of other DIS people that she knew, but they ended up having other obligations. Had all of those people show up with all family members in tow, we would have filled our little alcove in the food court. It was a lot of fun. We pushed some tables togethes and just had a row all together by one long bench. Those present were:Anita, Marc, Baylor, Jackie, Chelsea, Connor, Elaine, me, Jill, Brooklynn, Bella, Dawn, Dawn's mom, and Seth.
On the way to Atlanta, as we pulled off to get something to eat and get a stretch/restroom break, we saw this sadness.
Just think of the memories the people must have who were in those places during the tornado. It's just a very sad situation.
Friday night, Anita, Marc, and Baylor stopped over and slept in the town right next to us, so we had visited with them for a little while. They were on the road at the same time we were, and we were texting back and forth, but we had to make an extra stop with the girls, so they got there ahead of us. We were in the parking lot when I got the 'Where are you?' text. Anita said they were at the top of the escalator with Elaine (micandminforever).
Right after we got upstairs, Jackie and her kids showed up.
DIS greetings.
Next came Dawn, her mom, who was also Elaine, and Seth.
Seth-man was gnawing away on some Peter Pan bootsies.
Food and fun.
After we ate, the whole crew went to see Mr. Mickey.
What a glorious sight to behold - a Disney Store!
A store full of Disney things ready to be put into Disney sacks and paid for with a Disney credit card.
For the patriotic holidays.
Shopper extraordinaire.
Cute things for girls.
I got a set of the Mickey plates.
I really wanted two sets and the silverware, but I controlled myself.
Bella was excited about this soccah ball.
