Girls-Only Trip ~ Old planning thread, see first post for new link

[stacielee]

Hi everyone. Just a quick post. For those that remember a couple of months ago I went to the Price Is Right it's on tomorrow. I have to remember to watch it myself, need to see if I'm visible.

As far as all of the t-shirt planning, scavenger hunt teams (although I'd be quite happy if I was put on the same team as last time ), etc... I'm very flexible. I'm just happy that I get to spend 5 days in the Happiest Place on Earth with you all!

steph

I'll have to remember to watch tomorrow; I used to watch it when Bob B. was on it but it just doesn't look the same with Drew.

I would be happy with our same team, too! But I'm thinking it won't happen

PS: cute belly on FB!

Miss you Steph. Hey, even if we aren't on the same scavenger hunt team, no worries, we are still roomies. So lucky for you, you can rub my feet after the hunt in the room.

Ewww!

My thoughts exactly!!!

Oh gosh! Callie, Stacie, and I were dragging my poor little mom and Heather (who was really sick) all over the park like crazy people. The hunt was serious business to us!!

Not me! But maybe we can be on the same team this time...

How early are you getting in Stacie? I don't have class until 11:30am.

My flight gets in at 8am. Early, I know, but DH works right by the airport so it's much more convenient that way!! And hopefully Heather (who I've been playing phone tag with today) will be okay with that time, too, since she's coming up the day before so we can go see Mary Poppins

Well if it's that early than I can pick you up if you want.

I think since you are in the area now, you can change your location to Fullerton. Just sayin.

Okay, I just changed my flight, we're coming in at 10:35am. Heather is going to book hers this week, too.

 

[CaliforniaDreamer]

I don't think they'll let us be on the same team this time Oh well, makes for better competition!! I'm challengin' you right now!! Are you up for it??

Its on like Donkey Kong!

Oh, this is gonna be FUN!

Ahhh, got it. The joys of conversing via the internet. I didn't want you to think I was disagreeing with you, when in fact I was seconding everything you said. Deadlines are a must for smooth planning.

Sorry, but I'm going to win.

The b00by prize that is.

Totally agree about the need for deadlines. And it was just crosstalk - it was clear to me that you two were agreeing.

So I see teams forming in my mind!!
Ha ha!!


I have conferred with my scavvy buddies, and we would like to announce that this years "Treasure Hunt" will be themed to "Pirates!"

Needless to say, that is why we will be wearing the princess pirate design on Saturday.
Arrgghh!!

This is the first tid bit of news that you are getting at the moment.

Be on the lookout for more exciting clues in the future!

Yea!!!! !!!!! Ahoy, matey!

It sounds like Courtney and Callie are feeling better today. Me too - had a chiro appt yesterday that helped a lot. Capri, sounds good!

 

[prettyprincessbelle]

For everyone feeling better!!

Do we get to wear eye patches since the theme is pirates?

That would be cute. But I would probably run into things wearing it.

 

[prettyprincessbelle]

So would I. I run into things with both eyes in use anyways.

 

[VintageDisneyRules]

Greettings Divas!

I'm know the planning has been kicked into high gear so I'm trying to figure out if i'm going to be able to go for sure or not. I know it's been a little up in the air. Anyway....if I do come it would just be for the weekend. More likely Friday-Sunday, leaving Sunday evening. I'm working out the details so I should know soon. Anyone else going for just the weekend?

Yes, Sarah and I are going just for the weekend. Getting the Friday in time for Carnation Cafe dinner and leaving Sunday after the Cove Bar gathering.

 

[VintageDisneyRules]

Add me to the list of uber excited Divas! I know what you mean about the teams. Last year it was Me, Bree, Sarah & Trudi. We thought we had a really good chance of winning. I mean Bree was working at DL, and Sarah is really smart. We took NO breaks and hustled our hineys off. And we didn't even place. It was sad! Sarah made us these super cute necklaces with our team name on it and we had a lot of fun. BTW you two, I read you aren't coming to the Meet-n-Greet? It really is one of the funnest nights - I hope you can come Thurs night instead of Fri.

Yay for the Scavenger Hunt and Meet-n-Greet!

Sarah and I would love more than anything to get there Thursday but we just can't. Work you know. We WERE a great team weren't we !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[disney-inspired]

Okay, I just changed my flight, we're coming in at 10:35am. Heather is going to book hers this week, too.

Is this Thursday or Wednesday?
If it is Thursday, now I can't pick you up I have class at 11:30am.
Sorry!

 

[VintageDisneyRules]

Of course!!

To all hunters.

If you are coming with a family member, or a special friend, we will automatically put you together.

Unless, some of you are getting more familiar, and would like to split up.

Just let me know, if that is the case.

Sarah and I do not need to be put together.

I don't care what team I am on for the hunt, that is if I decide to do it.

 

[PrincessDuck]

I have booked my flight on southwest. I am coming in Wednesday night at 6:35. So if anyone is in town already, please let me know. This is my first time out there and I will be so lost!

I still need tickets for the parks...just need to figure out how many days I need.

Daisy

edited to add that I am flying into orange county (sna)

Morning and Happy Wednesday and Happy Veteran's Day to all!

First off to any of those that are coming in via John Wayne mom and I arrive on Thursday at 1:45 I think it is (I can look up the exact time but I am pretty sure that is when it is) so if anyone is coming in around then or 2ish and wants to share a cab like last time we are up for it!

And as for the scavy hunt as I said mom is def going to want to be on my team and if my cousin barbara comes (won't know till after thanksgiving) she will obviously want to be on our team but otherwise I am open to whoever would like to join us. I would LOVE to have Mary Jo again but I love everyone so anyone that Mel or Dawn sees fit to put with us I am fine with.

Linda thanks so much for thinking of us and YES we are doing the Christmas card exchange again. You don't have to do a special card but shelby would LOVE that! The girls so love getting mail! She will be over the moon!

As for me and mom at the meet and greet no worries. I told her about it this morning and even though she gave me a big SIGH she will manage. I am just going to wear sweats because that is what I wear to sleep in anyway And mom will probably do something like that too! As for the pillowcases though we may just have to buy some pretty ones cuz we aint crafty LOL!

Anywho we are def looking forward to it. I agree with those that said the meet and greet and scavy hunt are my favs! I had a blast on both of those! Like Dawn said the rides are always there but getting to see and talk with everyone is the BESTEST part!

In fact there were a few times where I got together with a few people for drinks also (and then the desert at Napa Rose) all of those intimate times where we were able to just sit around and visit were SO nice. Like this past meet sitting around at Plaza Inn or during the fireworks or even at Billy Hill was just SO nice getting to visit with everyone! That's my fav part!

Anyway today I am off to take the girls to get their swine flu shots. My doc sent me an e-mail and they FINALLY got some vaccine and of course it is only for kids and high risk patients. They are doing a walkin clinic from 9-11 so HOPEFULLY I don't have to wait forever. Plus the girls have never been there since we switched doctors so I hope I don't have to go through a big nightmare of paperwork since they are technically "new" patients.

Anyway then we are meeting mom for lunch and to do some shopping at the galleria. I got a 20% off coupon for the disney store and Penneys is having a really good sale as well.

Yesterday I went out to do my stocking shopping and to buy UP and ended up getting almost ALL of the girls x-mas stuff. So it was a VERY productive day! It feels good to be almost done! WHEW!

Hope everyone has a GREAT day and for those with kids off school hope you do something fun today!

Is that because of you knee?

Daisy

Daisy, be sure to go to the Disneyland site, and look up the tickets. They just came out with their winter deals. You pay for the kid's price. How many days are you going to be here? When is your departure time? This will help us help you.

Sarah and I do not need to be put together.

Okie dokie!!

For everyone feeling better!!

Do we get to wear eye patches since the theme is pirates?

Ayyy!

That would be cute. But I would probably run into things wearing it.

Me too!

So would I. I run into things with both eyes in use anyways.

Ha ha!

Seriously, when the time comes, you guys can wear whaterver you like as a team. That is why, I think this will be so fun. It's going to make for a really fun picture of all of us!!!

Next exciting bit of news.

Your team names will be themed to "Pirates" in some form or another. But it must have something to do with them.

You savvy?

Good Morning Divas!!!​

I want to say that I'm excited bout the prospects of the hunt being pirate princess themed. That's sounds like so much fun!!!

Do you all think I'll be able to ride POTC? I'm thinking the drops aren't that bad, but don't want to do anything harmful. I think I'll sit out TSMM, I'm not sure all the spinning is a good idea. Just some random thoughts about the rides and what I'll do...

I woke up in a panic last night after I dreamed that I lost this baby. The first few months are so scary to me given my history. Please pray or do what you do for us. I can use all the help!

I got to sleep in today, and have the day off. DH is working overtime today because they needed someone in charge, and he loves doing that. I hate it, so I let him do it.

I hope everyone has a divalicious day!!!

I'm jealous that you got so much done for Christmas. I hoping to have alot done by the end of this weekend.

Have a great day too!

Hi Heather!'

I see your siggie!

I think by the time you come in February, Pirates should be OK. The drops are pretty mild.

I will keep you, and that precious life in your tummy, in my prayers.

Have a restful day.

 

[disney-super-mom]

As I said yesterday on FB, I'm gonna kick me some major Diva hiney in the scavenger hunt, so watch out! Like I told Mary Jo, you all may want to wear extra padding on your derriere that day.....you know.....to prepare yourselves for your hiney beating.
