Snow-Wigd and the Christmas Elves, a December pre-trip!

[Charleston Princess]

I was shopping Saturday afternoon online at Disneyshopping.com....
I came across some really cute shirts, just one problem, I could not get them because I am not a member of D23....
So I thought about it for a couple of minutes. Told Marc of my dilemma.....
He said, "you have a job".
Now I am a charter member of D23.

Well, dang it all -- now I need to join.

AND....
Today, 31 trading pins arrived. We had such a good time going through them!
Jackie, we have one set back for Connor.... it's a LGM!

Oh, Connor will be so excited -- now we have to make sure our dates coincide so the boys can trade pins!

 

[Happydog]

Oh I love all this chit chat about boys and parties and D23 and Disney shopping.. I just caved... Plaid PJs 30% off.. hard to resist....
OH WigD I love the story about you walking Baylor into kindergarten... There have been serious discussions along this topic in my house as of late... I am not getting any younger and would likely be in the same boat!!! But that is a topic for ANOTHER day....

D23 membership! WOW! Now I know I am hanging with the elite!!!!

Congrats on the membership, what a perfect solution to a shopping quandary. How fun going through the pins! I really want to order a batch for Christmas but our trip is so far away, more than one almost seems mean.

You know I paid just about a dollar each on the pins, just think of what great stocking stuffers they would make!

Well, dang it all -- now I need to join.

Just sayin' you have until December 31st to become a charter member....

Oh, Connor will be so excited -- now we have to make sure our dates coincide so the boys can trade pins!

I so hope our dates coincide!

Gotta love Disney chat! I saw those plaid PJs, and to date have not purchased them. I went a little overboard on t-shirts and sweatshirts.....

OH WigD I love the story about you walking Baylor into kindergarten... There have been serious discussions along this topic in my house as of late... I am not getting any younger and would likely be in the same boat!!! But that is a topic for ANOTHER day....

Did I mention that I was 41 when I had him? That poor kid is really stuck with the "olds".

D23 membership! WOW! Now I know I am hanging with the elite!!!!

You know, I just though why not? Disney is really my only vise!

 

[Happydog]

PUHLease.... 41 is not old. It is wise. SO now, you are just "wiser"....



Re the Shirts and Sweatshirts... Yeah, I bought a few just this last trip -- I see getting them something Pirate-y but I think we'll be okay with shirts and such, I really love PJs.... they are uber cute... Sitting in my "shopping cart" as I type!!!

OH and it is hardly a vice... gee wiz... I could think of worse things!!!! What do you get for this membership?? I can't wait to hear all about it...

Wiser and tired.....

I found some Disney PJs at WalMart a couple of weeks ago, they are still in the shopping BAG!
Did you see the outfit Patricia created for David when he did PL? A striped shirt and cut off pants. It was perfect!

OH and it is hardly a vice... gee wiz... I could think of worse things!!!! What do you get for this membership?? I can't wait to hear all about it...

Yes, so true, I could start collecting diamond mines.....

The membership includes a "surprise Disney gift" that did it for me! I can't wait to report back when the package arrives.....
It'll probably be a sticker....

I got a couple of really cool presents with my membership. The first one I got made me roll my eyes, but after that I got one I loved!! I also love being able to buy from that D23 section of the website. (I'm going to love it even more after my surgery when it all fits me!! Sam's going to be in trouble next year when I start buying clothes!)

[lmillercrew]

You are going to love shopping for that new wardrobe! I'm excited for you!
I can't wait to find out what my D23 gift will be....

Oh that is funny!!!!!! Disney and their dag gum stickers!!!! Gotta love a free "surprise gift"!!!!

I know, any other time someone gives you a sticker and it's ohhh boy....
Get a sticker at Disney and it's OHHH BOY!

I'm gone for a week and you added another trip next year! Good for you It also looks like it's right after or shortly after your second trip on your siggie. FUN FUN!

We decided to go back for my July 5th birthday. I've always wanted to do that!
I just saw your pictures over on MeMom's thread, that baby sea turtle was precious!

#1 - You don't obey me any more than my second-graders do.

I know exactly what you mean and she promised to love, honor, and OBEY me!

 

[IluvXU]

D 23 charter member. You will have to share what you get.... it might be an enticing Christmas Gift!

 

[IluvXU]

Oh, Connor will be so excited -- now we have to make sure our dates coincide so the boys can trade pins!

Do we have dates yet-----

We will be at WDW June 18, I bet we are too late now aren't we?

No dates yet. I wish I could forego Christmas gifts this year and book our vacation instead.

Now I am a charter member of D23.

I have been going back and forth on this for about a month now. I keep thinking, "What if they do some really cool stuff down the road for charter members only?" Then I would wish I had taken the plunge. It pretty much just covers the magazine and a little more anyway, and I've already bought two of those. If I do it, I'll put it in Jill's name, since she'll live longer than me and get to take advantage of being a charter member for a lot longer.

If I do it.

I have to have some more time to think, think, think.

You know, I just though why not? Disney is really my only vise!

Okay, I've given it a lot more thought (between the first response and this one had to be at least ten seconds, right?)

and

I think

I'll do it.

Disney is the only thing I spend money on, but boy do I spend the money!!!

I know exactly what you mean and she promised to love, honor, and OBEY me!

Well, you could check into wife obedience schools. I don't know if they have them, but if anyone could search one out on the 'net, it would be you!

No dates yet. I wish I could forego Christmas gifts this year and book our vacation instead.

Connor and Chelsea might not be real happy about that. I am lucky that mine are old enough to want the vacation rather than a present or young enough to be satisfied with a cheap present.

Or, in Bella's case, be perfectly happy playing with the boxes and wrapping paper.

Oh, I am pretty sure there would be a mutiny at our house of grand proportions!

 

[IluvXU]

To all my enabler friends... again I am hijacking your thread- sorry!

Since we all love Target and Disney....

The Disney holiday CD at Target for 6.99 is the current CD of choice. Pretty fun and festive for us since we won't be seeing Mickey this season.

(and I am happy we got the Mickey CD, not the princess one)

Secondly look at my Target shirt purchase (clearance... but I would have got it anyway!)

 

[vamassey1]

Happy belated birthday to Baylor! I'm sorry I missed it. I vividly remember Brent's sleepovers and yes boys are rough. Girls are louder!

Your trip is getting so close! I wish I could convience Dennis to spend Christmas at Disney. Orginally we had planned to go the day after Christmas next year until after New Years.

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Nope, no, no way, there was never an obey.....

D 23 charter member. You will have to share what you get.... it might be an enticing Christmas Gift!

You know that I will, I want as much company in the club as I can get!

Do we have dates yet-----

I'm sure she has dates dancing in her head...

I'm thinking this idea would NOT be a winner in your house.

I read this at school bright and early....
you gave me a giggle.
Shame on me.

You're welcome Jill!

Well, you could check into wife obedience schools. I don't know if they have them, but if anyone could search one out on the 'net, it would be you!

I can't wait to see what he comes up with on this one!

Connor and Chelsea might not be real happy about that. I am lucky that mine are old enough to want the vacation rather than a present or young enough to be satisfied with a cheap present.

I'm sure Connor and Chelsea have started their Christmas lists already.

Or, in Bella's case, be perfectly happy playing with the boxes and wrapping paper.

They are so easy to please at this age!
This reminds me of the story of Cinderbella , who only got wrapping paper and boxes for Christmas....

Oh, I am pretty sure there would be a mutiny at our house of grand proportions!

I really wish I could get away with telling the kids that we won't be doing gifts at all because of the trip. We won't be doing as much that's for sure. We will for Baylor and Harper. The big kids will get some Disney dollars to spend.

Enabler! I am going to check out that Christmas CD at Target!
What happened to your baby? I see a big boy in that picture and I'm pretty sure it's Luke! He is really growing. Great find on that shirt!

Happy belated birthday to Baylor! I'm sorry I missed it. I vividly remember Brent's sleepovers and yes boys are rough. Girls are louder!

Yep, boys are rough and girls are full of noise and drama...
Thank you for the birthday wish.

Your trip is getting so close! I wish I could convience Dennis to spend Christmas at Disney. Orginally we had planned to go the day after Christmas next year until after New Years.

Yes it is getting closer, let's see..... 33 days to be exact!
Have you celebrated Christmas at Disney before?

I really do not think a school is necessary as this is the ad she answered before we got married!

But then I found out she needed a little reminder, so I bought her this book....

That took care of the problem for a while, but another reminder was needed...
