Resort Hoppin' with Wigd and Shocker! Contests!

[wigdoutdismom]

Is that a cliffhanger???? Or are you typing the next update? Can't wait to hear what you have planned. I am keeping Dec 2011 in the back of my mind as a possibility. Sure would be nice to get together with a bunch of DIS'ers.

Well, not for certain how it all ends until tomorrow when we call member services.
Baylor has been on and off about the trip.
He really doesn't want to go and we were hesitant about purchasing airline tickets with him being so wishy washy.
So today I told him I wanted to add four days to the trip and spend the weekend at POR and then move to a 1br at VWL. (weekend points are outrageous)
That did it, he said no way!
So he's staying in KS, with his dad. Actually it was his dad's year to have him for Christmas since we had him last year.
So it all works out.
It's still going to be strange for me to be so far away from him on the holidays.

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sure it will be odd to be away from him for the holidays.

On the "pro" side if there is anywhere else to be, I would think it would have to be WDW. And VWL at Christmas is perfect. SO Christmasy there!

Let's not forget the first five nights are at Beach Club....then we move to POR and VWL If the extension works out.
The first five nights are already set.

So we will be gone about 10 days...
Megan will be on break from school.
I know he will spend a majority of his days with her. He's very partial to his big sis!

Can I take Baylor's place?

 

[Happydog]

Your extended Christmas trip sounds delightful. I so enjoyed Christmas, Waking up on Christmas morning was really so amazing. Talk about warm fuzzies.... I couldn't go without staying for Christmas, but that is just me.

 

[JJBEAN]

Joining in! My guess is 10,124.

Love your potato head pictures! My kids enjoy collecting different Disney parts too. Looking forward to more!

 

[Lady Lallie]

Sorry Baylor won't be joining you on the Christmas trip. I'm sure you'll manage to still have fun though.

You have to promise to take LOTS and LOTS of pictures for POR for me with all the Christmas decorations.

Oh and I am going to keep 2011 in mind as well. We should have a GIGANTOR DIS meet!!

[snowwhite325]

Thanks, I thought that sweatshirt was cute too and at 50% off, who could resist?
Looks like our December trips are overlapping!

What are your dates for that trip?

 

[disney<333]

yay for extending your christmas trip.

 

[stace208]

Ok, I might be hoping too much but I think this means that you are extending your trip on the end???? I arrive on the 26th-will you be there now??? Can my pouting stop because I will get to meet up with you guys???

 

[pooh'smate]

Ok I am joining in. I love all your shopping steals. I really like the green sweatshirt and all the potato head parts. I can't wait to get some for Alexia. I already bought a potato head at Target for her on clearance for $2.99. My guess is 10,176.

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Can I take Baylor's place?

Sure you can but you may want to rethink the POR nights!

Your extended Christmas trip sounds delightful. I so enjoyed Christmas, Waking up on Christmas morning was really so amazing. Talk about warm fuzzies.... I couldn't go without staying for Christmas, but that is just me.

After or calls to member services it looks like we will be waking up in Disney on Christmas Morning! Maybe even a mansion!

Joining in! My guess is 10,124.

Love your potato head pictures! My kids enjoy collecting different Disney parts too. Looking forward to more!

Welcome! I love collecting the Disney pieces too! So fun!

Sorry Baylor won't be joining you on the Christmas trip. I'm sure you'll manage to still have fun though.

You have to promise to take LOTS and LOTS of pictures for POR for me with all the Christmas decorations.

Oh and I am going to keep 2011 in mind as well. We should have a GIGANTOR DIS meet!!

We will take Christmas pictures just for you, how about one on Christmas Eve and Christmas Morning?
We will miss Baylor, but it will be a different feeling being at Disney. At home missing him is very hard. We will stay very busy at Disney...

What are your dates for that trip?

As of this minute our dates are 12/19 through 12/28 flights still have not been purchased. I expect that to happen this afternoon.

yay for extending your christmas trip.

Thanks, it turned out that I couldn't just go for five nights after all!

Ok, I might be hoping too much but I think this means that you are extending your trip on the end???? I arrive on the 26th-will you be there now??? Can my pouting stop because I will get to meet up with you guys???

We are extending on the end! So it looks like a DIS meet with you all is in order! I told Baylor there would be boys there for him to meet this time, between you and Elena, but he just decided that he would rather stay in Kansas this time.
So at this moment our stay looks like this...
Beach Club 1br12/19 - 12/24 POR 12/24-12/26 SSR1br 12/26-12/28 waitlisted for VWL or Jambo

Where are you staying?

That's a great deal on your potato head. Have fun filling your box at Disney!

Awww...Bummer to no Baylor, I'm sure he will be missed during the holidays, but you and Marc will still have a most wonderful trip together!!!

OOOH what a stay...BC, POR, and VWL!! I CANNOT wait to see the pictures!!!

Yay! I'm so excited!! It is a bummer about Baylor as I know he and Ben would have hit it off swimmingly!

Right now we are booked at OKW but waitlisted for Jambo or Kidani. It'd be pretty cool if we both ended up there!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

I know when Marc called today the only DVC that had availability for the 26th and 27th was SSR. I wasn't surprised.
I do think one of the waitlists will come through though. I'm sure hoping to cross one off of our list.
Jambo would be great if you all were there!

 

[snowwhite325]

We're just going to miss you We arrive on the 3rd.

 

[__disneygirl]

Whew! All caught up now and can't wait for more.

Your Basin purchases especially made me jealous! I love it there, I just want to buy everything!! Do you remember how much the cool bars of soap cost? Like the stork one you got and the one with the Mickey heads? I didn't pick any up last time and i'm regretting it!

 

[Native NYer]

Yay for extending your trip!!!

Aww that's too bad Baylor won't be with you for Christmas in Disney. Maybe he'll change his mind.
