T-Shirt Cutting Update Part Deux

The cutting is done! I love the length and the neckline. I ended up cutting the sleeves completely off because it's a men's shirt, and they have long ape arms. I am going to have to sew some on the bottom of the sleeve opening so that the girls don't hang out. I'll then wash and photograph. I hope to have it all done by tonight!

Dawn, I think we need another thread after the trip. I'm kind of use to all of us crazies now, and I'll miss all of you!

What's the penence for eating meat on a Friday during Lent?

I'm pretty sure there's a long thread about that right now in the Disney for Families forum!

If you think that the trip is the end, you're sadly mistaken... Y'all aren't going to be able to get rid of us that easily.

I'm pretty sure that as soon as we get back from this year's trip we start the planning for next year! Oh, and planning for the mini meet in April and trying to convince a few more of you to come to Vegas in June, and planning the mini meet after that, etc., etc.!!!

I just did this to my lime green WDW t-shirt that my family gave to me as a surprise thank you gift for planning a great trip for everyone (although mine still kinda has the ape-arm look). I think it looks totally cute. Now I'll actually want to wear it. Before I felt like it was strangling me. Now to wash it.

Is there a place we can start another thread to keep in touch? I've seen such threads on the community forum of Disboards.

No worries ladies! We won't lose touch. After last trip, I got permission from Mary Jo to keep our threads here on this board as long as we are planning something related to Disneyland. Which we will be.

There is a DIS Meets board, but seeing as how most of those meets are for WDW we'd get lost on there and wouldn't get many new ladies to join us the way we will being on the DL board.
In fact, I've gotten PMs from ladies who couldn't make this one and are already asking about the next one.

I will start a new thread a few days after we get back announcing plans for next year's trip. We'll start off with a poll to pick dates. That's always most important, even this far out. And then just go from there. Along the way we'll get many more ladies to join. After all, look how many "newbies" we have for this trip!

How funny, that's when DH and I were thinking about going on our next Disneyland trip with our boys. We were there for Halloween two years ago (and actually went to the Halloween Party at DCA on Halloween night) and had an awesome time! It was so much fun, and such a great trip.....I dare say, it was magical!

I wanna go in October too! My birthday is October 24 so I can tell Ruben that's what I want for my b-day.
When was everyone planning?



OH!! And guess what?!?!?!?!?!?
I was planning to buy a 5 day park hopper for this trip but I won't need one now! Ruben secretly called his mom and arranged for her to go to Costco and get me a Deluxe Annual Pass! (the one with the $50 gift card!) So now I have an AP again!!!!!! It just arrived in the mail today.

Don't be. First off it's not completely in order, and second, I didn't do it. The Alphabetizer did. http://alphabetizer.flap.tv/

Congrats on the AP! We have AP's right now that expire in mid-March. We are not renewing right away. We WILL go back sometime later in the year just not sure when.
We have a 3 week road trip in August to Ohio to receive Jack's Service Dog. Too bad everything costs money!

Well maybe so, but you still took the time to go to the site and do it!

Thanks. My whole family had them for a year. They expired in October and we decided not to renew. (APs for 6 people is major moolah!!!) But Ruben wanted me to have one in case any mini meets or anything came up. I'm so thrilled. It was a nice surprise.

That's sooooo cool of Ruben and his mom! How exciting!

(Cheryl went to Costco and bought me the Deluxe Annual Pass voucher w/ the $50 gift card a few weeks ago. This will be the first AP I ever had. )

We're planning on going towards the end of October (to avoid all the fall breaks that will be taking place during the second and third weeks). Whatever you do, don't go between October 10th-18th......Columbus day plus fall break madhouse! )

YAY for your first AP!!!

I think October 24 is a good time for you to be there.

Yes - tell me about it! My youngest just turned 3 in January so now we also have 6 tickets to purchase when we go! Yikes! That makes trips so much more expensive!
We got our money out of our expiring AP's though! In 2008 we went in March, August, November and then in January 09. Can't complain!

So cool that you'll have an AP (and a gift card!).

I think Ruben and my Robert would get along very well...they both understand the disney madness in us!
