January 2009. . . Calling all Snowbirds ~ Part III !!!

[Dancegrl624]

Now, wait just a darn minute! What's wrong with the Sox??? Just 'cause they didn't make the Series this year . . . (Cute couple, too!)

Nothing is wrong with the Sox, I just didn't want to start a riot or anything. My family is full of Yankee fans, so they get a little riled up. I really don't care for baseball, so I stay out of it completely.

I must say, Madagascar 2 was mighty funny. I think I liked it better than the first one! Our DD loved it! We had a great family night out. Catch you all in the morning!

Meghan, we are taking the kids tomorrow-they are really excited. I wanted to tell you that I loved your picture. The outfits are adorable and ya'll are a beautiful couple. Yes, your dd does look just like you!!

I am signing off tonight!! I was hoping we'ld be a bit busier--I'm only about 5 posts from 1000!!!! I can't believe it!!!! Maybe I will stay off till Monday--that oughta put me waaaaay over!!!

 

[MindyLuvsMickey]

Ok!

I'm ready to get excited about this trip again. . No more pouting about missing the big deal.

Oh yeah. Less than 60 days for us. Whoot! Whoot!

Sleep tight Snowbirds.

Cool! We are going tomorrow!

Thank you sharadoc for posting at the other board. That was truly quick on the response time over there.

I posted the question there but I will here too. How do I save that image and then put it on cards, t-shirt, whatever. I am not technically inclined nor creatively inclined. Any instructions would help me greatly. I think I may check out the local Staples store and see if they would do buttons.

My DH wants us to post our Dis name on our POP door when we are going to be asking for signatures of all the people who pass by (we saw this on the POP picture board and thought it was a neat idea to ask for a first name and where they are from). Now we can add a Snowbird picture.

Thank you
Remmy

 

[sharadoc]

What a great idea! I saved the image, I'll just have to think of what I am going to do with it. All the DISigners are so great I have so much stuff to do before our trip! Now I'll have time since I am not looking for codes every second of the day

Cool. I wonder if we'll get any more? We could end up with a whole 'series'

 

[Remmy]

I want to tell everyone who has changed their countdown banners to their resorts, I am loving it. They all look so neat. I am thinking of changing mine but I have noticed Stitch has moved so much and I feel like I am getting much closer to our time at Disney. I am afraid to get rid of it.

Can we have 2 counters in our signature? Is that allowed? Is that acceptable, or overkill? I don't wish to offend anyone.

I was hoping to reach page 200 by Monday morning. It looks like there will be many Snowbirds gone for the weekend. Do you think we can make it?

I liked today's QOTD. I have already answered it but I would still love to read other people's responses.

Thank you
Remmy

I can't wait to get those dipped pretzel rods from Goofy's! Anytime I see them around here they're always dipped in caramel first, then chocolate...and I can't stand caramel! For sure I'll do one with peanut butter cups, if not all three.

I've never eaten anything from Goofy's. I did get hot chocolate there in Jan,( it was a colder evening...high 50's )

I'm definitely getting something this time!

 

[PEANUT1]

we saw madagascar tonight too...it was really cute.

ooohh!! I love those dipped pretzel rods...my hubby got the marshmellow dipped and it was delic.

 

[distherapy]

Hey Becca - Congratulations on your test! Your last line gave me the giggles...

Mindy- Definitely keep checking (and check yourself online). The availability seems to keep changing. I could do things today that didn't work earlier.
Good luck!

 

[sarbah77]

I'm thinking of either Beaches & Cream or Big River Grille & Brewing for my ADR I need to add. . . . Anyone been to either or both of them?

I ate at Big River Grille once. Never again.

We had the WORST WAITER EVER.

He took our order and then went to a meeting.

Yep. Didn't get anyone to cover for him. When the bartender realized what had happened, he rushed our food to us - my hot food was not lukewarm and my friend's salad was both soggy and tepid.

Never. Again.

Plus the food wasn't particularly remarkable. Stupid restaraunt!

(just my $.02!)

What is this? My DH and DD love peanut butter cups. Do you get to add stuff on top of them? This sounds very interesting.

We went to Goofy's and bought a icee drink in a princess cup. We are hoping they still have Stitch cups, so DS can have one.

HI Snowbirds ~

I haven't posted in FOREVER........my, how we have grown!!

My TA just changed my ressie from ASMo to Port Orleans Riverside......a better room for less $$$. Yippee, January deals!! I am soooo excited about the refrigerator & coffee pot!!!

Anyone stayed there? Please tell me you loved it!!

 

[Momto2PrncChrmgs]

Have to get a waffle cone. Not very creative, but I don't ever eat them and Disney is an excuse! Would LOVE to try a Dole Whip! Maybe this trip.

Hubby is still talking about upgrading to AKL. Does he realize we could use the extra money he's making to pay for CHRISTMAS?

A questions for the snowbirds...for those of you that have been this time of year before, whats the weather like? Are we talking jeans and sweatshirts, shorts and sweatshirts, shorts and tshirts and a light jacket? HELP. I'm 79 days out and wanting to PLAN!!

 

[Remmy]

I decided on two countdown counters. My DS loves Cars, and even though he does love Stitch, he wasn't pleased with DD's choice of counter. He will love seeing this in the morning. I also didn't want to feel left out from the rest of you, where the counters indicate where you will be staying. Those are great counters.

I also wanted to post a yahoo, as it took me one year but I am at 125 posts. Nothing like some of you expert posters but I am slowly coming along.

I will track your door down and sign...I will be at Pop the same time as your family.

EVERYONE, thank you all for the sweet words and for my Grandmother. We did share some funny stories tonight. And it was raining, then snowing. Wisconsin weather is CRAZY....yes, 60's & 70's for 3 days, Snow the next 2. I am off to bed as I'm exhausted. Hoping the snow does not continue on for tomorrow. I might have to break out my winter boots for the burial!

Yes.

That's it, yes to everything you listed .
I was there last year at the same time (7-15ish). Our trip started out GREAT! It was upper 70's the first few days and sunny, so for some it would be hot, but for us it was great! Then it progressively got cooler. Our final day was at DHS and we wore sweatshirts all day. Sitting for Fantasmic that night was rather cold!

So I repeat, in answer to the articles of clothing to take....Yes!
