OH no!!! He did jinx you!!! Bummer!
Looking forward to seeing what you get in your trades!
P.S. My husband's fireman vinylmation came today...he was pretty excited!
Next time, maybe Jeremy can tell me that it's probably not a Buzz, but an Evil Dr. Porkchop. At least that way, it will be something cool, still.
I'm getting so excited to get back to trading. I hope I get some cool ones, but if not, there's always next time.
The fireman one looks cool.
Like your trip changes. It sounds like it will make things a little easier for you all. Big plus for potential Epcot time, too! Do the boys understand how soon the trip is?
Those big babies are not cute at all. Hope you can trade around and end up with your Buzz! Good to know these are at the
Disney store. I may check it out tomorrow. You have me considering letting Andrew get into this trading game. It seems fun enough and a little easier to deal with than pin trading.
I think it will be much easier to leave Wednesday night. Now I just have to get everything ready to go a day sooner.
I hope we do get some Epcot time Thursday night. I love to have extra time in the parks. I don't think the boys do understand how soon the trip is. I think Landon has forgotten anything about Disney World, and while Carter remembers it, he has a hard time with the concept of X days til something.
No, those Big Babies are not very cute. I'd love it if a Buzz turned up this trip, but that would probably take a lot of luck. I am leaning toward trading the Babies. I think Vinylmation trading is much easier to manage with little kids than pin trading. Nothing sharp about Vinylmation.
I love your Vinylmation stories and seeing the ones you get and trade. Your theory on Buzz made complete and total sense....why did Big Baby not move around
Thanks! I still think the Buzz theory may be correct. Maybe I didn't shake the box quite right? Or maybe I picked up the wrong box and left the one that hadn't moved sitting on the shelf for the other guy?
I'll probably give it another try someday.
I think that leaving a day early is a great idea! That will leave you plenty of time to get to Disney and beat rush hour traffic! It really is awful, I guess the problem is that I-4 is the only real road in and out of Orlando, and everyone lives in the 'burbs.
Since I've already been an enabler this trip, I figured I'd mention that there is a GREAT Disney outlet just outside of St. Augustine. Its called Character Connections and they get the Disney park merchandise for super cheap. Its a really easy on and off I-95, you can see it right from the highway. When we lived in Jacksonville I used to go down every Friday night because they had a pin trading event. I bought most of my Disney clothes there for a super discount, and they have good prices on trader pins.
I hope you guys have a nice time in Jacksonville. I wish I could give you a recommendation for a nice place to have lunch, but I am honestly having a hard time thinking of a non-chain, kid friendly restaurant. There isn't anything too exciting about Jacksonville, maybe thats why I don['t really miss the city, only the proximity to St. Augustine and Disney.
I'm very relieved to be missing Orlando's rush hour. I think the drive will be okay, but not if we spend a couple hours in stopped traffic. And hopefully the boys will get a good nap along the way.
Character Connections. Maybe I'll see if Jeremy would want to stop there on our way home. I can never bring myself to stop when I am so close to getting to Disney. On the other hand, when it's time to leave, I certainly don't mind lingering a little longer.
That's okay, I'm sure something will turn up, once we get there. It doesn't need to be anything too special. The boys would probably be happiest with a Chick fil a, so they can play. We do like Sonny's, too. I know there's one of those along our way, because we frequently stop there on the drive.
Reading your Vinylmation stories makes me want to start a collection of my own!
I'm sorry that you got another Big Baby; I really like the Bullseye one, and I can see where you'd want to trade the baby ones.
I can't wait to see which ones you end up with on your upcoming trip!
I've been having a lot of fun with my Vinylmation collection. It's funny, Big Baby is pretty much the only Toy Story Vinylmation I really didn't want and now I have two. Definitely time to do some trades.
I can't wait to see, either. I actually made up a little booklet of Vinylmation trading locations, so if I'm in the parks and get one I don't like, I'll know exactly where to go to trade again.
thanks to washable marker.
I can't believe Jeremy jinxed you like that! I almost bought my first Vinylmation at the
