I bought new pj's last week for the girls' trip!

Whew!. :rotfl:


So for the shirts it's a white tee right? I think I'm going to get a white hoodie too cuz I know I'll get cold in the evening and I don't want to cover up the shirt.

What a FUN idea!

Oh darn, I was going to see if a cute 3/4 sleeve hoodie (no zipper in front) was still on hanes dot com, but it's gone now. If only I'd gotten white instead of bright orange.
 
Hey Beth, I'll be in your neck of the woods on Wednesday. DBF and I decided last minute to head to Vegas for New Year's. We're staying Wednesday - Friday at the Emerald Suites.

Oh really? How fun! Well, one place that knows how to throw a New Years Eve party is Vegas! :thumbsup2 Not that we've ever taken advantage of it since we have the kids. LOL We do like to watch the fireworks though.

I've never heard of Emerald Suites. Where is that? I hope you were able to find a good deal. Prices are nuts. I got an email from Mandalay Bay informing me of the "great deals" they had for NYE......rooms starting at only $699 a night!! :eek:
 
Hi ladies!:wave2:

Long time no see. I've been over on the WDW boards while planning our trip to the World, but now that our trip is over, I'm back "home" with all of you.

I hope everyone is well. My deepest condolences to Melody for her loss.:hug:

So is there room for a couple more ladies to join all of you? (Yes, I know we're naughty to be joining in so late! :stir: :goodvibes )

Woo Hoo! Capri's back! :woohoo: :woohoo:

You better be coming! You better be coming! I'm so happy you're coming! :yay:

Oh yay! I'm happy that you're happy I'm coming.:hug:

I thought for sure some of the ladies might be lining up to kick my rear end for those......cough......ahem......tight......small......shirts......last......year......cough.:rolleyes1 (Oh wait, I guess the butt kicking could still happen.)

Yep, I decided to join you guys (ladies). I kept reading about all the fun stuff you had planned, and I just couldn't help myself. Plus, DH said to me, "You should go!" So since I had his blessing, I figured why not! Then I called the HOJO today and made a room reservation.:yay:

My girlfriend Cathy, whom some of you met during last years Ladies Only Trip, should be joining me again too. She's still not a DisBoard member though. She's a tough nut to crack. Or it could be that she has a life.:laughing:

I'm totally excited to be going! I can't wait to see everyone again, and meet some new friends too!:grouphug:
 
OK, I've got a PM off to Joanna (everydaymathchick) to see what font design, color, size, etc she used. So as soon as I hear from her, I'll let y'all know so those who want to order a tee can do so.

I tried calling Disneyland Tours to find out if the Segway Tour can be cancelled or not but the line was busy. I'll try again later. It can't be booked until a month out either though.

Mainly what we'll be booking soon will be the meals. Those are easy enough with the exception of Carnation Cafe. I have 26 people signed up for that, so we are going to need several ladies to call and place reservations for Friday @ 5 p.m.
So far I have myself, Mary Jo, Steph and Debra who have agreed to call and make some reservations for that. I will need more though since I think the maximum each person can reserve is a table for 6. Anyone else willing to make a call?




On the plus side, my dishes, vacuuming, and laundry are done. And I have my house back! All Christmas stuff is packed up and put back in the garage. And I have a few items (horns, noise makers, hat, etc) ready to be brought out for New Years. :banana:

Don't forget the VIP gals will reserve for 10 (probably a 6 and a 4?), even if all the Vip gals don't want to do Carnation Cafe. They will still book it for us.

And welcome aboard, or back or whatever it is Capri. Another Washingtonian is always welcome!
 
Maybe instead of topless, we can at least wear some bras? :rotfl: My only issue with the topless was having 'the girls' flying around on the rides.

We could all get coordinating lime green bras! :thumbsup2

Thank you, no.

Uhhhh-----no.

Some of us have more things than "girls" to flop around!

That is exactly my thought.

This tour can be booked on January 6 if I'm not mistaken. (someone wanna double check my counting, I am half asleep already, lol)

So we need to make sure everyone signed up is going. Linda (lulubelle) will be the one calling to book this tour. And I believe she is going to put the entire amount on her credit card, and will need everyone to send her a check with their tour payment. (I'm double checking with her on that.)

Walk in Walt's Footsteps:

4. Stacerita/Stacie
5. MotoXPrincess99/Sarah
6. VintageDisneyRules/Trudi

10. lilycat/Heather
11. lulubelle/Linda
12. Brianne (Linda's DD)
13. Fairykin/Dawn
14. Sally (Dawn's mom)
15.

Also I'm not certain, but there might not be any refunds on this tour, so you need to be aware of that possibility in case you need to cancel. You'd still be responsible for your portion.

You can cancel me for this tour. I'm gonna be taking DD on it probably in the near future so I will just wait to go with her. Sorry.


BTW- I saw some very cute Disney totes at Walmart today. Pretty cheap but decent. I think around $6 or so.
 
My thoughts and prayers are with Melody and her family.

Hi Capri, how was your family trip to WDW? I hope you all had a great time.

I ordered those transfer things for the T-shirts yesterday. Now I need to know what exactly (i.e. where can I find the exact picture...and how do I get the correct font/writing on the image) I need to print to put on the shirt. Any help would be appreciated. :goodvibes

I can't believe we're getting to the 60 day mark already. I am so ready for this trip.

Hello everyone!

You don't know how much your thoughts and prayers have meant to me. Thankyou so much! :grouphug:

You just never know, what life brings you do you?
Dawn and Cheryl, you were right. Today was the day I was supposed to be at DL and Club 33............But that is the least of my worries for sure.

Today, I was with my Mom for most of the day. My heart breaks for her, and I think I cry more than she does, cuz it hurts me so much to see her so sad.

His death was unexpected. He was 85, and from what we know he died peacefully.

I am blessed to live in the same town as my Mom. She is 84. So when things settle down, I want to try and keep her company and busy as possible. It's time for me to learn how to knit, which I have wanted to learn for years. I have also talked about cooking classes with my girls, so she will be the pie crust queen instructor. These are all little ideas I have in my head.

I know I am rambling, and as I write, tears are falling down.

Thanks for reading.

Melody - :hug: :sad1:

I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm glad your mom has such a wonderful daughter close by. I'm sure knitting, baking and just being with you and your girls will mean the world to her during this difficult time.
 
Melody, my heart breaks for you. :sad1: It is hard watching someone you love in so much pain. When my MIL passed, I was sooo sad and felt soo helpless. Grief takes so much out of a person. I know having you and your DD's near means the world to your mother. :hug:

I look forward to meeting you Capri! I read your trip report, what fun you had! I've done the beer and bathroom tour of EPCOT myself. :thumbsup2

I've had a productive day. I now have 3 large garbage bags full of baby clothes and linens for goodwill. I plan on packing up more tomorrow. I need to get my tax deductions in on Wed.

I'm also planning on doing a master budget for 2009 tomorrow. I'm making some big financial goals for us.

I'm also planning on losing 50 pounds by our trip. :laughing: You see, I have more than 'the girls' to flop around also. :sad2:

OK, talk with you all tomorrow!

BTW-DH gave me my iron back. He thought I never used it. Men! *eye roll*
 
So is there room for a couple more ladies to join all of you? (Yes, I know we're naughty to be joining in so late! :stir: :goodvibes )
Well, don't you know that being naughty is only a bonus with this group?? ;)
Welcome back girl! I'm glad you'll be with us again. :goodvibes




Or it could be that she has a life.:laughing:
What is that?? :confused:



Don't forget the VIP gals will reserve for 10 (probably a 6 and a 4?), even if all the Vip gals don't want to do Carnation Cafe. They will still book it for us.
OK. Is this for certain that they will book 10 spots for you? If so, then we'll only need 16 more spots. When will you know or when can they book it? Can they do it earlier then the 60 days?



You can cancel me for this tour. I'm gonna be taking DD on it probably in the near future so I will just wait to go with her. Sorry.
OK, no problem. Thanks for posting. This is what we want, to find out if anyone's plans have changed.



Now I need to know what exactly (i.e. where can I find the exact picture...and how do I get the correct font/writing on the image) I need to print to put on the shirt. Any help would be appreciated. :goodvibes
Well, I am clueless at all this, but from what I understand you just use the image from the front page. I think you just need to save it to your photobucket account or computer and make sure it's at 100%.
Honestly this is all new for me too.




Today, I was with my Mom for most of the day. My heart breaks for her, and I think I cry more than she does, cuz it hurts me so much to see her so sad.
Oh Melody, I am so sorry. She is lucky to have you there to care for her during this time even though I know it's hard for you to stay strong as well. We are all here for you if you need anything at all. :grouphug:



Hey Beth: have you checked out the new Encore yet?
Not yet. It only opened on the 22nd. We talked about going down there, but decided against it. We'll wait for some of the fuss to die down. I'm not expecting much. The Wynn wasn't too thrilling. It's nice for sure, but other then being a fancy schmancy hotel :snooty: , there wasn't much of a draw.
So I imagine Encore will be the same.
 
And welcome aboard, or back or whatever it is Capri. Another Washingtonian is always welcome!

Thanks so much. I'm glad to be on board, or back, or whatever it is.;) :rotfl:

What part of Washington are you from? I don't know about where you are, but I swear I've had about enough of all this SNOW! If I threw my five year old in our front yard, I don't think we'd find him until spring.....that's how much snow we have! There's got to be close to 4 feet out there! Walking out our front door and down our entry way is more like walking through a snow tunnel these days. (hahaha)

Hi Capri, how was your family trip to WDW? I hope you all had a great time.

Hi Steph. Our trip was great (especially considering it was with the in-laws). The only little bummer was that there was so many people! I did miss my beloved DLR though. It's just so much easier to get around......and park hop too. I also missed the "real" version of Pirates, and the fact that DL packs so many attractions all in one park is a BIG convenience in my book.

Here's a few pics of our trip that I put up on the Disneyland Divas Getting Healthy thread. Just scroll down to post 1146 and 1147.

Can't wait to see you again!:cool1:

Capri,

Welcome back!!

Thanks so much Mel! I'm so sorry you're having to go through such a painful time right now. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers and close to my heart!:hug:

I look forward to meeting you Capri! I read your trip report, what fun you had! I've done the beer and bathroom tour of EPCOT myself. :thumbsup2

BTW-DH gave me my iron back. He thought I never used it. Men! *eye roll*

I'm really looking forward to meeting you too!

That trip report was from an adults only trip that DH and I took back in January 2007. We had a blast.....although we didn't act too much like adults. I guess that's why we had such a blast!:woohoo:

We just got back from our second trip to WDW on December 16th. But it was a "first" trip to WDW for our two boys, as well as my MIL and my BIL. We had a really nice time.:thumbsup2

Lets us know how your t-shirt transfer works out. I'm anxiously waiting for your update.
 
Me too! :rolleyes1

Actually, at this point I'd settle for losing 5 pounds. This month has been one long binge! :sad2:

Me too Beth.

I've been eating WAY too much lately. I've got to start getting back on track. I'd like to lose another 10-15 pounds by March 1st. Unfortunately I don't think the spaghetti and garlic bread I made for dinner tonight (and thoroughly enjoyed I might add) is the right way to do it.:goodvibes
