Sensing Pixie Dust I Am! A Star Wars Weekend PTR! New PTR Link pg. 77!

[jeremysdisneymom]

Joining in for the fun!

CS is one of our favorite resorts. DS loved that pool!

I need to check out Star Wars weekend sometime. I am sure you will have a blast.

Loved the pics of your daughter and her first pie! My kitchen helper was always my grandmother---mom and I did not mix well in the kitchen. Too funny that Charles was baking with her!

It looks like you have some nice dismeets planned. I met Anita and her husband last year over the 4th--very nice people.

Can't wait to read more about your plans.

Can I just say I both LOVE and LOVE to hate your latest update.

Okay, let me do that again....

I am SO jealous about your time with them!!! BOOOO!!!! Well, you will all have a fabulous time!

There will be lots of great magical moments I am sure!!! Well, you know that I will be there in Spirit!! I forgot Jen is going to be there too! AWESOME!!!!

Ah, I wish you were going to be there, too, but we will send you texts and pictures if you want! You may even hear me screaming all the way in Maryland when I go on the Tower of Terror. LOL!

Oh, and I would TOTALLY NOT tell Chelsea. THAT would be one of the funniest moments I could every anticipate and be dying to hear all about... Right Michelle??!! We were all teenage girls, once... Oh, well, all of us but Shocker, Don, and Charles... who will all be rolling their collective eyes...

Oh, I don't think I can tell Chelsea. Really. She will take so long to get ready. We had to leave early yesterday to head to the bank before school, and she did her make-up in the car. I am not exaggerating when I say it took her from the time we left the house all the way to the bank and then all the way to school to finish. That was like 35 minutes worth of primping. LOL!

LOVE it, and SO excited for 90 days, CP!!!

It can't come quick enough as far as I am concerned. I need a Disney fix in a bad, bad way. LOL!

Looks like a lot of Dismeets!! I cannot wait to meet you!! It will be a sad night for us as it will be our last night but a happy twist that we will meet. We have an ADR for Teppan Edo & then we will take the monorail to MK. Yes the boys will be us. We will need to exchange cell phone numbers as it gets closer.

We will make that last night lots of fun for you!!! We will definitely need to exchange phone numbers so we can meet up!

I must be thinking of everyone there right now as I had a dream last night about meeting Brook & family. I have Disney on the brain a LOT lately. I bought my new Nikes last weekend.

Yeay for new Nikes!!! I need to start figuring out what we need. Maybe I will tackle the trip drawer this weekend.

How was the soccer game this weekend??

The girls won all three of their games at the Invitational last weekend, but we had a heartbreaking loss last night -- 2-1. Then, a parent came on the field after the game and yelled and swore at us. Left a very bad taste in our mouths.

I have so many emotions right now!!!

I am so jealous that you will be there so soon.
Sad that you get to have great Dismeets and I can't be there too!
Thrilled that Anita will take you on TOT-- I predict that you will love it and go on it more than once!!

Debby, we will take lots of pictures for you! LOL! I wouldn't bet on me loving ToT, but I will do it so I don't lose credibility.

Wow, I come to check out your update and there I am! We can't wait to see you in just a few short months. Jen should be with us most of the time, unless she needs a break! So where we go she goes!

I can't wait!!! Lets hope the time flies by until we reach May!

Baylor has already vowed to sit out the TOT meet....dump shop here he comes!

Lucky Baylor.

I shouldn't have told him he would love EE. He will never trust me again.

I really don't think EE is any worse than BTMRR. They both make me feel like I might die at any moment. Ha! Ha!

Hmmmm, this meet with Michelle, Don and the boys.
I think I'd like to hide somewhere and watch Chelsea's reaction to Jared.

Oh, you should just come with us to be a witness to it.

I know just how you feel! I get those some feelings when those great meets are going on without me too....
Wish you could hop in your car and drive down and be with us!

Agreed!

It must be due to great coaching.

Thanks, Elaine! According to the parent who yelled at us last night, apparently not.

Doreen, since we are driving, who knows, we could show up a day early. It could be we just put the pedal to the metal and go, go, go!

I like that scenerio! Then, you could be at rope drop with us on Sunday.

That's a yes in my book!!!!

He is SO a Disney fan.

I think you might be right.

Jackie....

a ton of Dismeets too fun I love it!!! we had such a blast w/ our 2 last Nov...it really brings a fun new element to the whole thing...yay for you all

OH PS watched the end of Air Force One last night w/ our favorite hottie Mr. Ford

J~

Hi, Julie! We have had a couple of DIS meets in the past and really enjoyed them!

Love Air Force One -- we have that on DVD. I always tell Charles I think Harrison Ford would make a great president.

Yay for lots of DISmeets! You're going to have so much fun.

If you're looking for any other vintage Star Wars shirts, let me know. There a bunch of stores in NYC that sell all sorts of vintage style t-shirts. Some are, let's just say, interesting...

Ha! Ha! Ha! I can just imagine what some of those t-shirts are like, Jen!

 

[Charleston Princess]

Yes tell Marc to put that pedal to the metal!!. That would be awesome if you got there early but do not want to put you in harms way to get there. I will have to give you my cell # if you think you might get there early.

Yes, drive safely, but quickly.

Wowsa - you have some serious DIS meets going on! You are going to meet so many wonderful people. I almost forgot Jen is going back. I can't believe she's going with us in early May and back again in late May. Go Jen!

Yes, I am a tad bit jealous of Jen's many trips and DIS meets. You are all going to have a blast at the Flower and Garden Festival!

Those are lovely pictures of everyone.

I had fun creeping around on their trip reports to find pictures. LOL!

Chelsea is going to kill you!

Maybe... That's pretty much par for the course these days. She got mad at me the other day because I put my arm around her in public to hug her. I consider this payback. (I'm not a Scorpio or anything. )

I have to admit that although this last update got me excited for you to meet so many amazing DIS friends, it got me sad that a picture of Chris and I couldn't be up there too Just 2 days short!

I thought the same thing when I was posting this update. I had wanted to put up one of those adorable pictures you are always taking with Chris.

It's crazy to me how from what I first thought was a silly little website has helped me formed some wonderful friendships with so many people from across the US. Magical, isn't it?

It really is! Some of my "best friends" are friends I have met here on the DIS.

What a fun trip you have planned full of DIS meets! And 3 months!! That is totally do-able. I have a feeling it's going to fly on by!

I do hope so! I seem to be in desperate need of a Disney fix these days!

I love how the Disboards brings people together! All of your Dismeets sound so fun! LOL at Chelsea's comment about Michelle's son!

Chelsea doesn't usually read over my shoulder, but that picture caught her eye the day I was reading. LOL!

Jackie,

remember I said when I found it I would post a picture of the twins when we dressed them up as Luke and Lei for thier first Halloween?

well here you go:

J~

Oh, I love, love, love it!!! Thanks for sharing, Julie! I wish I could convince my two to dress alike for Halloween, but they never want to do so. I should have done it like you did when they were babies!

Wow, only 3 months to go! Wasn't that long ago that we all had secret identities, now that trip is long over & a new TR is 44 pages long!The new trip will be in 90 days, the time is passing too fast!

It's so true! I can't believe how quickly time is going these days! We are already into March and I swear we were just snowed in for a week (which was back at the beginning of January).

I used to coach middle school & younger soccer boys, it was fun, but some of the parents I could've done without!

Well, we had been very fortunate with our parents until last night.

I was totally cracking up reading this! I've been debating whether or not I wanted to show Justin a picture of Chelsea before we meet up too!

Too funny that we were thinking the same thing. I think Justin and Chelsea should just be surprised.

I really need to start a PTR so that you can see how much he's changed, he's looking so much more like a young man, and he's gotten tall - passed me last summer and he's about to catch his dad.

Yes! You do need to start a PTR! Pretty please!!!

I can just imagine how much Justin has changed. My nephew, Will, is the same age, and I have seen that happen with him, too, this year. He looks so different now and just towers over me.

I have thought a lot about you these last two weeks since Chelsea has been applying to the Honors program for high school, and we toured the school last week. I remember you going through all of that last year. The good news is she got her acceptance letter yesterday! However, I am having a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that she is starting high school in the fall.

I'm hoping that Connor will pull Jared out of his shell a bit, he's a little shy around new people, but I'm betting Connor will put him at ease right away.

Connor never meets a stranger -- especially at Disney. He will probably talk Jared's ear off.

I can't wait to hear about your ride on ToT - Anita you hold her to it, we don't want another dejected Connor picture in the next TR!

I know -- I can't let that happen to Connor again. LOL! I will probably need drink afterwards, though.

So not only do you have a trip to look forward to, you have DIS meets!!!

The best of both worlds!

Hurray for three months!!


OMG... that is exactly what I would do to Tricia!!


Kathy

Thanks, Kathy! Yes, I just think for everyone's peace of mind, we need to keep mum about it.

 

[Charleston Princess]

Yay for Dismeets Sounds like lots o fun!!

Too funny about Chelsea and Justin being sprung on each other Make sure there are pictures of that meeting

Oh, you know I will have that camera out and ready. LOL!

So many DIS meets planned! That's so awesome. I love that there's an environment to meet people and have something in common.

I agree! I the DIS! You know, I can't help but wonder if we would have taken nearly as many trips as we have to Disney if it wasn't for the DIS.

Wow, that is a lot of DISmeets! How fun! I would love to meet up with some Disney friends on one of our trips.

We have only had a few DIS meets before on our trips, but this trip we are lucky that so many people will be there at the same time.

First at the turnstile, rope drop dancing WOOT WOOT I am very excited to meet up with your family again Jackie it is going to be amazing!!

I can't wait to rope drop dance with you, Jen!!!

You have a lot of very cool DISmeets planned and that is going to be so much fun!!!

I agree! I am so looking forward to hanging out with everyone!

Hmmmm.....the meet with Michelle should prove to be VERY interesting to say the least LOL!!!!!!

I think so, too!

Woohoo!!! Won't be long now!!! Lots of great DISmeets planned! I so enjoyed meeting Julie and her family in November and hope to be able to meet more of my DIS friends in the future.

Yes, there are still some DISers I am hoping to meet up with someday!!!

LOVE that last update!!!! BUT, SO jealous of all your wonderful DISmeets! You are seeing so many of my favorite DISers.....you MUST give them hugs for me, and then insist they give YOU a hug right back for me! I know one day, I will get to "meet" you all at our favorite place! HAPPY 3 MONTHS to MICKEY!!!!

Same here, Jen!!! I will definitely collect hugs for you!

Your plans are shaping up, Jackie! 3 months is so exciting! With so many DISmeets, you should have one big one - how fun for all of you!

I agree! A big DIS meet would be lots of fun!

Wow! That is great you have so many DISmeets planned! And only 3 months to go?!? Woo hoo!

Less than three months now! Hurray! Hurray!

OF course! We ALL do, right??!! Well, I don't know that I could call myself a SW geek -- I am not trained enough in the ways of the Jedi BUT if I happen to read this TR and watch enough Connor video, I suspect I might be

That's one of our goals for this PTR -- to make everyone reading well-versed in the ways of the Force.

SOMETHING came in the mail today...

Thank you again, HD, for getting that!

Hi Jackie!! I'm here!!

Just read your updates - you are going to have a blast with all your meets!!!

Are you still considering the NYE trip? I'm pricing as we speak. It's expensive so we'll see.

Hi, Katie! So glad you are here!!! We are still looking at a NYE trip if only for a couple of nights and on a strict budget. I think we are going to book Pop at some point -- room only for now.

 

[Charleston Princess]

I'm glad I chose today to get caught up, I could sure use some of that Han Solo vibe in your second to last post!!!

And how sweet of you to do a meet about us and talk about my family in such kind words! We're really looking forward to seeing you and meeting the kids. Other than Tink, I think you'll be my first DIS friend to meet the baby!

I can't wait to meet Squirt and see how much Nemo has changed in the last couple of years.

Joining in for the fun!

Hi, Erika!!! So glad to see you back on the DIS!

CS is one of our favorite resorts. DS loved that pool!

We are very excited about hanging out at the pool! I pyramids!

I need to check out Star Wars weekend sometime. I am sure you will have a blast.

It was a lot of fun when we went a couple of years ago.

Loved the pics of your daughter and her first pie! My kitchen helper was always my grandmother---mom and I did not mix well in the kitchen. Too funny that Charles was baking with her!

Charles had clean-up duty.

It looks like you have some nice dismeets planned. I met Anita and her husband last year over the 4th--very nice people.

Can't wait to read more about your plans.

Erika

Aren't Anita and Marc just wonderful? We are so excited to get the chance to hang out with them again!

 

[Shaniyah]

I am finally all caught up on your posts! It feel like forever since I have been on DIS. I have missed everyone.

 

[Poolrat]

Hi, Katie! So glad you are here!!! We are still looking at a NYE trip if only for a couple of nights and on a strict budget. I think we are going to book Pop at some point -- room only for now.

I am booked at POP. Now I have to make that work. It should be no problem, but I need to get time off from work and make sure that money stays available.

 

[manntra]

Wow!!! You have some awesome dismeets planned!!! That is so exciting!!!

I agree with MEK....Chelsea is going to kill you I really like tormenting my 14 year old niece. A LOT!

I can't wait for your ride on TOT

Tracy

 

[disneyfan61]

On the way home from soccer today I said to my DH "10 weeks & 4 days". Weeks & days sound so much better than months!

 

[SoonerGirl]

The girls won all three of their games at the Invitational last weekend, but we had a heartbreaking loss last night -- 2-1. Then, a parent came on the field after the game and yelled and swore at us. Left a very bad taste in our mouths.

Wow, for losing one game by one goal?! Ugggg!

Yes! You do need to start a PTR! Pretty please!!!

Now that my Swish Club duties are over I should have time to start one. I'll have stuff to do for the Home Run Club, but not nearly as much (I hope!). Maybe sometime this next week

I have thought a lot about you these last two weeks since Chelsea has been applying to the Honors program for high school, and we toured the school last week. I remember you going through all of that last year. The good news is she got her acceptance letter yesterday! However, I am having a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that she is starting high school in the fall.

Justin transitioned really well, I'm sure Chelsea will too. It's just so hard to see them growing up. It dawned on me the other day that we are almost to the last quarter of school, which means he's almost a sophomore - I'm afraid we'll be filling out college applications before I know it!

 

[Megablocks]

You have so many DIS meets planned, that's awesome! I can't wait to see how Chelsea meeting Justin unfolds. You made me laugh when you said something about payback and how you're not a Scorpio or anything. My mom told me yesterday that I am definitely a fire sign -- I parallel parked my brother's car for him yesterday as payback to the jerk who dumped snow all over my dad's hood and windshield last Sunday after he parked in "her" spot (after she was gone all weekend!) There were plenty of other spots for her to park, but just knowing that I created one less space for her made me feel really, really satisfied. I freely admit it was silly and juvenile of me, but so is dumping snow all over someone's car b/c they parked where you normally do! I am so ready for spring, I'm sick of the parking wars in my neighborhood.

 

[MeMom]

So, needless to say, we are looking forward to hanging out with our DIS friends on this trip!!!

C’mon three months!!!

Hooray for DIS meets!
We had several on this trip, and everyone was wonderful!

I wish I had the $$ to snatch up Brooklynn and come down there that week for some MeMom and Me fun...and to see all of you guys. We will sure enjoy the Facebook updates, though.

Chelsea may never forgive you if you don't allow her to prepare for that 'secret' meet! I can't wait to see pictures of all the DIS kids together.

Boma with Marc, Anita, and Baylor will be awesome! One of your favorite resorts with some of your favorite people - how good does it get?!?!?

 

[Wicket's Mom]

It is so great that you are going to have those meets. One of these times I hope to do the same.

Wow Chelsea a freshman in high school! Those years go by all too fast. Three of mine were in honors classes. Congratulations to Chelsea for getting in to honors classes.

 

[Megablocks]

Also meant to say that I can't believe Chelsea is going to be in high school! She and Connor look so little in the pictures you posted. Congratulations to her getting into the Honors program, that's awesome!

 

[MeMom]

I have thought a lot about you these last two weeks since Chelsea has been applying to the Honors program for high school, and we toured the school last week. I remember you going through all of that last year. The good news is she got her acceptance letter yesterday! However, I am having a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that she is starting high school in the fall.

I overlooked this the first time through.
Congratulations to Chelsea!
She's got a busy four years ahead of her.

This made me laugh. It is something I would do too.


Congrats to Chelsea on making the honors program. I can't believe she will be in high school either. I remember the first tr I read of yours and Connor and Chelsea both looked so small.

 

[CanadianWDWfan]

Congrats to Chelsea for making Honors! You should be so proud!

So fun to have all those DIS meets planned!

I'm going to have my first meet in September and I'm excitted!

Oh my....I hope Chelsea is still speaking to you after her surprize DIS meet!
We must see pics!

How did you make out with the tshirt buying for the trip?

 

[momof2TNboys]

Congratulations to Chelsea! I am sure she is so excited to go to high school.
Yay for all the Dismeets! I wish we could be there for the NYE meet! I am still thinking about it.
Can't wait to hear more!

 

[jillyb]

Congratulations to Chelsea on the Honors classes!

 

[Megablocks]

This made me laugh. It is something I would do too.

Thank you for putting my mind at ease, after I posted that I was like "gosh I sound really mean, maybe I shouldn't have posted that."

Jackie, you might be able to add another DIS meet to you list -- Katie might be there at the same time, but leaving the 28th b/c the 27th is her birthday. I think right now it's just a possibility, and I'm not sure how much she is on the DIS anymore, but definitely Facebook her about it!
