[ZeroToHero]

Hey, joining in! I know (and read) that Goofy mentioned me earlier, and here I am!

What exactly is USGB and where would I find a place to read more about it? I could always use more cash for Disney, babysitting isn't quite cutting it. (I just read your entire PTR after the kid I was babysitting went to sleep!)

 

[Goofy22]

Happy Birthday and Happy Anniversary!

. Try www.usgoldbuyers.com!! It was very fast and easy. I sent my stuff off on Monday, had a quote on Tuesday, the check was in my mailbox on Friday!!! Talk about fast service. I am going to call for my referral code, if you use it when you send off you stuff I'll get $25!!!


I finally learned how to multiquote a message!!!

 

[nu2wdisneyw]

Can I just start by saying somehow I deleted the subscription to my own thread!!!! But I am back now and I so excited that I have some new readers!!!

Well I want to start by doing a happy dance, because we are PAID IN FULL!!!!

Okay I am done celebrating!!! No wait...not yet:


Okay now I am done!! My weekend was great. We didn't do anything too elaborate, my husband and I just "hung out" with each other. We don't get to do that too often, being the we don't really have any family here. On Friday we went into DC with another couple...it was really nice. We went to a place called Utopia and had dinner and listened to a live band. Really lowkey spot, with a very mature atmosphere. It was reasonably priced...only about $90 for the 4 of us!!

Saturday we went to Cheesecake factory and had a nice dinner/lunch. One of my FAVORITE resturants. DH was not too please with his meal...he had the steak and said it was not that great. I didn't try it...but I love my meal. Of course we ended with a piece of cheescake to go...knew I wanted it for later. We went over my sister's for a little while, then called it a night.

Yesterday we got up early and went to Cracker Barrell for breakfast...the place was PACKED . I have never seen so many people there before, we had to wait like 20 minutes for a table. Then we went to the mall and DH made me pick out something only for me...I am very guilty of going to the mall and buying something for everyone in the house (dog included) and nothing for myself. This trip was all about me and he made sure of it. Would not let me go into The Children's Place or Gap!!! However we did make a detour into The Disney Store...he knows that that would really make me happy!! I found t-shirts for the boys for $2.99!!! I got them 2 a piece and I think I am going back to get more. I also got Jahlil some shade for $1.62!!! Walked out of there with 4 shirts and the shades for less than $15!!! Then we went back to Cheesecake Factory so I could get another piece of cheesecake for my b-day cake!! DH couldn't believe I just didn't buy 2 on Friday!! We then enjoyed a quiet bbq dinner at home and went to bed!!

I will post picture of the purchases later tonight. Now it's time for some serious Disney planning...it so real now! We are actually going!!! I am so excited, I don't know what to do with myself!!

 

[mousescrapper]

sounds like you had a wonderful anniversay and birthday weekend in DC and at home!

Happy and Congrats are in order to you and your DH too!





wonderful news about your trip being paid off too! good for you and great buys at the Disney store

 

[DisneymoonJess07]

Paying it off feels great!! Can't wait to see your purchases!!

 

[nu2wdisneyw]

Hello Again!
So I didn't take a picture of the stuff I purchased from the Disney Store...for whatever reason I went to sleep at like 8:30 tonight...so mow I am wide awake and on The DIS at this ungodly hour!!!

I did make a purchase this evening. It's all about caputuring the memories at Disney right? So I thought why not catch it from all perspectives. Well I ordered this camera from ebay tonight for like $15 including shipping:

I thought it would be GREAT for Jahlil to use to take pictures of what he sees. I am going to give my other digital camera to Jeffery and of course I plan to purchase the Nikon L100 for myself. They have it on Amazon right now for like $219. I want to wait a little while though. We are planning to get a new TV for our living room, both Jeff and I want it so we decided it will be out Anniversary present to each other.

I decided that the binder thing is not working for me. I am going to use the Passporter that I purchased last year to keep me organized. I am going to start making my packing list this week. I want to start to cross things off. We get the boys back in 2 weeks and I want to have as much stuff purchased before they get back as possible.

I started working on the slide show presentation that I am going to play for them in the car. I need to add music, but I can't find any that I can download from the web. I am looking for "When you wish upon a star" I thought that would be really fitting. Do you guys know where I can find it? If you could help me with that, I would be truely greatful!!

I think I am going to visit the Photography boards to see what's going on over there. I need some tips on how to capture the best memories in the world. I wanted to get a new camcorder too...the one we have is ancient . However both a new camera and camcorder are not in the budget. I am just going to get a big enough memory card, so I can make videos using the camera.

I am getting so excited for this trip...it's going to be here before you know it!!v

I would love if you could email it to me!! What other Disney music do you have? Thanks Toni!

 

[ZeroToHero]

If you have a public library, I bet they have Disney CDs. And if they don't, they may be able to get it from other libraries. That's where I get most of my music. And I have over 500 songs.... so it works pretty well!

 

[oregonmommyof2]

I would love if you could email it to me!! What other Disney music do you have? Thanks Toni!

If you PM me your email address, I will send you a list of what I have... I have a lot...

It's actually a digital. And it hold like 200 pictures on the camera and have a slot for a memory card. I has a picture viewer and a flash. He is going to be tickled pink that he has his own camera.
