The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 2

[Steamboat Marti]

Depending on whether or not she has priors (and considering she kept this one such a big secret, it is possible), I think three to six years should handle it. And forget any credit for good time.

--Kevin

Keeping it a secret -- isn't that one of the worst things you can do????

 

[Tammi67]

Oh my gosh, things are so much worse than we thought!!!

Remember Kate vehemently denied having a manilla folder on that kid from High School Musical? Well, she was sort of telling the truth...

I paid her a surprise visit today and look what I found: a RED folder on Zac Efron!!!

Of course, she put her own t-shirt design on the cover!

And look, she even has a "things to do" list!

We all know where she found all these pictures...she's the Queen of Google!

So, I ask you my DDA friends, what do we do now? I've never staged an intervention before, but it's obvious our friend Kate needs help. This kid is half her age! Any advice you can give would be appreciated.

Amy

Oh this is too good!! She is going to flip when she sees it.

Evidence does not lie. There it is, in black and white. And RED!

TOM - Babytrees is right... there is a number you can call for a larger, personalized cake.

Otherwise, especially for smaller groups, the table service restaurants in the parks all have 6" cakes (serves up to 5 I think they said? That's how many we had and it was fine) that are delicious! They don't have names on them, but the Cast Members bring it out with a candle, sing, etc -- and it tastes great! All you have to do is ask when you check in (in fact, they won't do anything over the phone for these cakes). They are $12, and the ones you order can be much more pricey than that... I don't specifics on those, though.

Hope that at least helps provide another option!

Thanks! I thought I had everything planned out. But, I forgot the cake! There will be 5 in our party, so that might just be fine. Otherwise, I will try to order a special cake for her and maybe have it delivered with balloons to our room while we are out. (If that is even possible? ) Her birthday is Tuesday, so, hopefully I will have enough time to pull it off.

Have a great trip and happy birthday on Tuesday, take lots of pics, your wife's outfits are wonderful.
ENJOY ENJOY ENJOY!!!

All of the DDA children are absolutely adorable....I just have to figure out how to post a pic....but my girls are a lot older than all that I have seen...espescially in the last couple of days!!
I feel old!!!

OMG that is too funny!!! Amy, you're right, Kate obviously needs our help!!

Midnite and Glynis --what beautiful children and pictures. Thanks for sharing them.

Glynis, the kids are gorgeous miracles.

Kate, Kate, Kate. What are we going to do? Amy, you're in charge of the internvention. We're all behind you.

 

[itdjbw]

Another great idea. I think I am going to hold off on the 2nd email until tomorrow. Otherwise I will be sending email after email.
thanks for responding, I appreciate it. Penny

You can google the pandora bracelets and there are tons of differnt beads to add, this is going to be fun designing my bracelet and so many people have commented on it already, I love it and I'm not a big jewlery fan.

WOW!!! 3-6 years with no Disney interaction.....no DIS.....no DDA.....NO NEW DESIGNS......now that I am not liking!!!! We need to get her a good attorney if Kevin is sending her away for that long. We have to have our DDA fix.

These are for Southwest airlines. Go to www.southwest.com and download their Ding program.

Thanks I checked but typical my luck they don't fly here.

Well, Kevin could never really prosecute Kate, because she lives in Butler County and we live in Hamilton County. Perhaps the prosecutors in Butler County will go easy on her.

PLD. We celebrated all of our boys birthdays on our last trip as they all fall within a few weeks of each other. We had a rental car so I made a trip to Walmart to pick up snack and got a cake, balloons and small gifts from the characters. I had brought cards for each boy and gift bags to match. Chris made sure that he had the boys out of the room at a specific time and I snuck the cake, balloons and gifts into the room. I joined them and we all returned to the birthday "surprise" in the room. They loved the cake, which Walmart personalized. They had a balloon with their favorite character on it and a gift from their favorite character. It was a huge hit.

I know it is still early in the night but I am really tired. Good Night To All!!!!!

Ok, I'm attempting to post some pictures of my kids. I've never done this before, so I'm hoping I remember the instructions correctly. Keep your fingers crossed.

If all goes well, this is a picture of all my kids last Easter. I hope this works.

They are beautiful. It is great to put faces to the kids. Now where it the picture of you?

I would post pics of the tshirts, but I already have them packed. I will post more pics when we get back.

PLD. that outfit is adorable. If only I had a girl...Does she have any great ideas for boys?

Deb

 

[my3princes]

Wow, Tammi, looking at your Alyssa and then looking at my Mary and Leslie, I can definitely see it! That's so cool!

As long as I'm posting, I thought I'd post one of me. Keep in mind that I hate having my picture taken, and also keep in mind that I'm now 60 pounds lighter. Consider this my "before" picture:

By the way, these are the shirts that Kate designed for our family group! They went over big time with all the CM's we ran across. Thanks, Kate!

I should have kept reading before asking for a picture of you. You are beautiful. And you've lost another 60 lbs. I'm jealous.

I know Tinker1bell and Steffy and maybe a few others will get a kick out of these. I have lived in Pennsylvania plenty long enough to know most of these.

You know you're a true Pennsylvanian if... (and for you out-of-staters don't laugh, most of this is TRUE!!)
You refer to Pennsylvania as "PA" (pronounced Pee-Ay)
You can say the phrase "fire hall wedding reception" and not even bat an eye.
You know what a "State Store" is, and your out-of-state friends find
it incredulous that you can't purchase liquor at the mini-mart.
You live within two miles of a plant that makes potato chips, corn
chips, pretzels, candy, or ice cream, or that packages turkey, beans or
bologna.
Words like "hoagie", "sticky buns", "shoo-fly pie", "pierogies"and
"pocketbook"(pronounced 'pock-a-book')
actually means something to you.
You can eat cold pizza (even for breakfast) and know others who do the
same.
You not only have heard of Birch Beer, but you know it comes in multiple
colors: Red, White, Brown, and Gold
You know several places to purchase or that serve Scrapple,Lebanon Bologna,
and Hot Bacon Dressing.
You can give directions to "Intercourse, PA" with a straight face.
You can eat a cold soft pretzel with deli mustard smeared on it from a
street vendor without fear and enjoy it.
Your turkey has "filling," not "stuffing," and most certainly, NOT
"dressing."
You know the difference between a cheese steak and a pizza steak sandwich,
and know that you can't get a really good one outside PA.
You live for summer, when street and county fairs signal the beginning of
funnel cake season.
You know that Blue Ball, Climax, Bird-in-Hand, Beaver Moon,
Virginville, Paradise, Mars, Intercourse, and Slippery Rock are towns.
You know what a township, borough, and commonwealth is.
You've never referred to Philadelphia as anything but "Philly."
And New Jersey has always been "Jersey," and the Ocean City as "the shore."
At least 5 people on your block have electric "candles" in all or most of
their windows all year long.
You know several people who have hit deer more than once.
You know who "Punxsutawney Phil" is, and what it means if he sees his
shadow.
You know what a "Mummer" is, and are disappointed if you can't catch at
least highlights of the parade.
You carry jumper cables in your car, and your female passengers know how to
use them.
You have an uncontrollable urge to buy bread and milk when you hear the
word "snow."
You have more miles on your snow blower than your car.
You still keep kitty litter, starting fluid, de-icer, or a snowbrush in
your trunk, even if you live in the south.
Driving is always better in winter because the potholes are filled with
snow.
You think sexy lingerie is tube socks and a flannel nightie.
You think a typical vacation is two weeks on the front stoop.
School closings due to snow take the radio stations a half an hour to
finish, because just about every town has its own school district.
As a kid you built snow forts and leaf piles that were taller than you
were.
"Youse guys" is a perfectly acceptable reference to a group of men & women.
You know how to respond to the question "Djeetyet?" (Did you eat yet?)
You can say the correct pronunciation of LANK-is-ter instead of the
mispronounced Laan-CAST-er,
and LEB-en-in instead of the equally incorrect Leb-a-NON.
You know how to pronounce Bryn Mawr, Bryn Athyn, Wilkes-Barre,Schuylkill,
Bala Cynwyd, Conshohocken, and Monongahela.
You prefer Hershey's Chocolate to Godiva.
You call Sloppy Joes "Barbecue."
You think Medium Rare equals Well Done.
You can stop along the road to buy fruits, vegetables, or crafts on the
"honor system."
You buy your beer and soda only by the case.
You say things like, "Outen the lights," "I'm calling off today," and
"They're calling for snow."
You think the roads in any other state are smooth.
You consider Pittsburgh to be "out west," and you know the fastest way to
Philly is the Turnpike.
You know that Yuengling is pronounced "Ying-ling," and believe that it
really is a premium beer (which
comes from growing up on Schlitz and IronCity).
You have the Rolling Rock bottle memorized: "From the glass lined tanks of
Old Latrobe, we tender this premium beer for your enjoyment."
You refer to something as "a whole nother," as in " That's a whole nother
issue."
The local paper covers National and International headlines on 1/4 page but
requires six pages for sports.
You know the four seasons: Winter, Still Winter, Almost Winter, and
Construction.
Your municipality buys a Zamboni before a school bus.
