Like...They are Going with STRANGERS?!?! Sayonara Part 1- Join Us on the new thread!

[maroo]

WOAH!

How is it that we are halfway across the world and posting at the SAME TIME on each others TR's...

hello...

10:32 PM. Check that out?!?!?!??!?!?

 

[wide receiver]

LOVE LOVE LOVE the family Disney letters....How special for you! Love the donkey too....really need to think about what I am bringing home for my future Grandbabies! I wonder what you Aunt was thinking when she bought the donkey in 57 or 58....why she chose what she chose. Very cool!

 

[All7OfUs]

WHY are you still up??

 

[All7OfUs]

Hello fellow soldier!

Now, now...you must get permission from the Commander in Chief to be releasing sealed documents! You might cause a war or something.

So...ya think we should release any secret info.

Darn. I am going to have to bribe some more people to vote for what I want! Wait...I can't bribe people. This is war, not politics! I am going to get kicked off the DISboards for talking politics!

HA! I guess that is a big deal right now over there. The BBC doesn't make such a to-do over it, so I'm glad you explained that to me on the phone! The last thing I want to do it cause a war- really I only just want to win small (okay some are going to be major) battles in getting to our trip.

As for releasing secret documents and revealing information from our planning conversations- we might have to begin to bring some of our faithfuls into confidence. Some of them have shown amazing patience and trustworthiness among our ranks.

But first they must all read and "sign" THE CONSTITUTION. That will be coming up on Monday, so stay alert our fellow compatriots- Our Modus Operandi will be coming up soon!

 

[TarzansKat]

What an amazing find! I'm in awe over not one but two letters. Those are priceless treasures, and a wonderful tribute to your grandmother as well.

 

[that's nice]

I dare you- double dare you- to paint them up and post it!!!!

I'm not sure what DW would think if I start painting my toenails. Better yet, if they were painted behind her back, then I pop off my shoes on the TTA to take the picture. I can see her asking me a few questions about it. I'd just have to blame the DIS!!! LOL

As for secrets.... no, not much longer, Mate! Honestly, we are kinda waiting for Mary to take that Sept. trip of hers for the first major announcement (can I jsut say that we are hoping there may a bounceback in our future?). Meanwhile, if you say please, maybe we can loosen up our security clearances and let you know one or two of our ideas. Maybe.

So are you telling me we have to wait to September to find out any important info??????????

 

[All7OfUs]

We, the Ladies of The Chosen 3, in order to form a more perfect vacation, establish childlike wonder and fun, ensure touring tranquility, provide for the common enjoyment, promote the general sense of satisfaction of money well spent, and secure the blessing of liberty to ourselves and our whims, do ordain and establish this Constitution for The Ladies of the Chosen 3.

Article I- Qualifications of The Chosen 3

We, Ladies of the Chosen 3 must have a deep-seated sense of fun and adventure and an unbounded sense of wonderment waiting to be unleashed at all times, beginning with their journey towards WDW.

They must be daring, to the extent that anything might happen at any time, such that as a handshake, hug, or even an impromptu waltz could happen with Pooh Bear without the slightest bat of an eye.

Each lady must bear the name of The TC3 with the utmost pride, being a full participant in each laughable moment from the planning to the remembering!

Each must also be extremely congenial, dealing with blisters, heat, rain, missed ADR's, closed rides, and any other expected or unexpected circumstance with grace and charm. (we are always like this anyway, so no worries-but in the face of war, one's true character is revealed)

Article II- Decision Making

All major vacation decisions shall be made by The Chosen 3 collectively, with the understanding that any one of the parties can veto at any time by choosing not to participate.

However, if one party member chooses not to participate in an activity requiring reservations, she must notifty the TC3 ADR coordinator in time to cancel without big deal ramifications.

Article III- Whining and Complaining

Each TC3 Lady agrees NOT to whine, moan or complain (this includes eye rolling!!) about the plans that have been made!

However, husbands, other family members, previously mentioned sworn enemies and other facets of our routine lives are all fair game!

Article VI- Grace and Understanding

Each TC3 Party Member shall recognize that the others will have come for various reasons, motivations, and means. Therefore, each TC3 Member will give grace, patience, and understanding during the U.L.T.t.W.D.W. (Ultimate Ladies Trip to WDW) If someone says "no", there shall be no cajoling, teasing, pushing or putting down. Let's face it, while one may want a balloon, another may want an hour alone.

The Obligatory 10 Amendments:

I. NO farting in the bedroom!! but the bathroom and balcony areas leave every freedom for flagrant flatulance-let 'er rip ladies!

II. The TC3 remain the right to laugh at each others' character interactions. And NO laughing at each others' arm flab during hugs or poses- especially Soldier #'s.

III. Each Member must act and feel childlike during the trip. If skipping down Main Street, or buying a 3rd Mickey bar facilitates that, then it can and will happen!

VI. maroo agrees to eat her zucchini and cucumbers at each meal, or she must ride the tea cups twice in a row!

V. Sneak photos of immature behavior is absolutely allowed, but the others must ask permission to post them first- especially if there is arm flab in plain sight!

VI. The Ladies of the TC3 agree NOT to laugh at the others' most likely riciculous purchases. One woman's treasure is another's rejectamenta.

VII. NO throwing hissy fits for getting trounced on Buzz or TSM. Let the high score speak for itself.

VIII. Soldiers #'s 1 and 3 will agree to accomodate maroo's obsession with the hot tub at least once or twice. But, I say a margharita by the pool afterwards baby!

XI. Belly laughs, tears of joy, random glasses of wine, and impulse purchases are all allowed, and in fact, encouraged.

X. No Soldier will withhold their meal from a food art picture. All must be properly recorded and goggled over.

 

[All7OfUs]

Love the little donkey! At what cool bits of info everyone over at Theme Parks had to add. Good idea Mary!

wasn't that fun!? My daughter, MKBekka, has already laid claim to it someday.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the family Disney letters....How special for you! Love the donkey too....really need to think about what I am bringing home for my future Grandbabies! I wonder what you Aunt was thinking when she bought the donkey in 57 or 58....why she chose what she chose. Very cool!

I don't even know if an 11 year old thinks about that. I 'll have to ask her, though.

What an amazing find! I'm in awe over not one but two letters. Those are priceless treasures, and a wonderful tribute to your grandmother as well.

They will look great framed up with some other trinkets after we get back to the States. She was a great lady, and I will never take a trip to WDW without thinking of how she took me as a child and rode rides with me and ate frozen bananas by my side.

I'm not sure what DW would think if I start painting my toenails. Better yet, if they were painted behind her back, then I pop off my shoes on the TTA to take the picture. I can see her asking me a few questions about it. I'd just have to blame the DIS!!! LOL

So are you telling me we have to wait to September to find out any important info??????????

We''re a great bunch to blame for just about anything.

No, you won't have to wait until Sept. to find anything out. That would be cruel and inhumane.

 

[eyor44]

Okay, I read the Constitution. Can I hear secrets now?

 

[All7OfUs]

Okay, I read the Constitution. Can I hear secrets now?

All in good time dearie, all in good time! (Cue the monkeys and ruby slippers)

Should we start with snacks we are dying to have?? or shall we begin with our top 10's for each park?

 

[TarzansKat]

I LOVE the Constitution. And it begs to me that you all need matching tee shirts. With The Chosen Three emblazoned on there somewhere!

And I have a new motto...for those of you who are worried about arm flab, or any other unsightly or less than desired areas of the body that you prefer not to have splashed all over the internet:

When in doubt, crop it out!

 

[GreatBiscuit]

A most excellent constitution! Perhaps when the trip is done, it can be signed by all participants and donated for display in Town Hall.

(You do realize that the Zucchini Clause and articles of flatulence may be mutually exclusive right?)

 

[jenb1023]

Love the Constitution!!!

Maroo may have issues with article IV however!

TarzansKat - I love it! "When in doubt, crop it out!" Too funny!

 

[maroo]

on iPhone

but i have amendments

lol

especially to number 4 lol

more to come

 

[TarzansKat]

Already we have the promise of amendments to the constitution? I love it!

 

[that's nice]

Your Constitution is too funny!!!!

Maroo... I don't know what you are getting yourself into here. But I think you might have to eat your veggies this trip!

I agree, LOTS of tees! We already have a some ideas, but need to work on that!

LOVE your motto! WE have one for when we live here too- regarding when you find something that you can't get very often (like brown sugar or marshmallows) at the supermarket. "When in doubt, buy them out!"

A most excellent constitution! Perhaps when the trip is done, it can be signed by all participants and donated for display in Town Hall.

I think we'd better sign it BEFORE we get there, or maroo won't even try to eat her veggies. She'll say she didn't sign anything.

Yeah, I figured those 2 clauses might be "mutually exclusive", but hey, I liked them anyway.

Love the Constitution!!!

Maroo may have issues with article IV however!

TarzansKat - I love it! "When in doubt, crop it out!" Too funny!

I'm sure she will, I can't wait to hear her squawk!!

OOPS!!! She just did! Ha, let the debating begin. Isn't that what our forefathers did when they wrote the real deal? I guess they perfected THAT art, and now get very little done! HA!

Already we have the promise of amendments to the constitution? I love it!

I'm sure this is just the start!

Your Constitution is too funny!!!!

Maroo... I don't know what you are getting yourself into here. But I think you might have to eat your veggies this trip!

I thought you'd get a nice little insight into our character with this! I hope maroo isn't too freaked about my teasing. I'll have to be really careful to not give her any ammunition now, won't I?

 

[MinnieNurse]

Love the Constitution. That is priceless. I am always in favor of anything that draws attention from my arm flab.

 

[MKBekka]

maroo I thought you would have problems on amendment 4. So, you can kill me for that one, not my mom. I was the 'brains' behind the clause.

I am so sorry I have not posted about my amendments! I was DISing last night when a neighbor came BANGING on my door. One of my neighbors needed an ambulance and for some reason the neighbors thought getting the doctor neighbor (not me, but another neighbor) was more practical than calling 911. They banged on my door to find out which condo the neighbor doctor was in?!



Anyway. That crisis took an hour or so to resolve last night and then I was done for the day!

The neighbor is fine, by the way. She just fainted, had a stroke?, something?! But she is doing fine at the hospital this morning.

Already we have the promise of amendments to the constitution? I love it!

He he. No major amendments! But I might have to call on a lobbyist to help me get them passed? You up for that job?

Your Constitution is too funny!!!!

Maroo... I don't know what you are getting yourself into here. But I think you might have to eat your veggies this trip!

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah. I have to eat my veggies. Bummer.

I agree, LOTS of tees! We already have a some ideas, but need to work on that!

LOVE your motto! WE have one for when we live here too- regarding when you find something that you can't get very often (like brown sugar or marshmallows) at the supermarket. "When in doubt, buy them out!"

I thought you'd get a nice little insight into our character with this! I hope maroo isn't too freaked about my teasing. I'll have to be really careful to not give her any ammunition now, won't I?

I am not freaked at all... This is way too funny!!!

Love the Constitution. That is priceless. I am always in favor of anything that draws attention from my arm flab.

Me, too! But I suppose if I ate more veggies, I would have less flab to crop out?

Although, I have been playing with Photoshop and I have discovered the "eraser"... This should make for a much more flattering trip report! (Just kidding!)

maroo I thought you would have problems on amendment 4. So, you can kill me for that one, not my mom. I was the 'brains' behind the clause.

Ah HA! The truth comes out!

Actually, it was a great clause!! It just needs a little.....tweaking.



Anyway...I just wanted to post so that you guys did not think I have dropped off the face of the earth! I am still here.

But for some reason I actually have to WORK at work today. I was out yesterday. So...I gotta go work. But I WILL be addressing these amendments tonight! I promise!
