The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 4

[Tammi67]

these were inspired by the shirt Julia had on today

You are just an endless supply of ideas. Alyssa got a few hand me down plain shirts for summer. I think I am going to have to dress them up a bit.

If you do look at our pictures, you will see that some photographers were better than others in terms of trying to get Alyssa's attention and in photo taking ability too (e.g. the first person who took our "nighttime" pictures at MK had no idea what she was doing!). Also, the 70 or some pictures at the end, are where Kevin and the CM were adding random borders and signatures.

Sometimes men just don't think! If she finds us, we'll have your back Amy. Even though, you are the one that seems to give the Queen the hardest time.

I did call her a freak the other day, didn't I?

Amy

 

[KMH1]

I'm glad it was a success! I bet you're exhausted too.

This time change has thrown me off. I'm sitting here wondering why Alyssa is going to bed so early. It still feels like the afternoon with all of this sunshine.

Well, Kevin's giving her a bath now, so she's not technically in bed yet, but she does go to bed much earlier than some other Dis children I know!

Hey Kate, Steve was impressed I had Alyssa in her pajamas by the end of the party!

Denise, I was looking at costume ideas for families and came across this idea:
Wizard of Oz: Dorothy (with a stuffed dog for Toto), the Lion, a scarecrow, tin man and the wicked witch

Also here is a link to an idea for making Tweedle Dum and tweedle Dee very easy and inexpensive

Ok, enough on the cold weather in Dec.
We went Dec 2001 for 2 weeks.
The entire trip was low 80's.
We spent 2 full days @ Blizzard Beach.
Also an evening @ the pool ASMO.
I would love to go back in Dec.
Miss all the decorations.
My AP expires in Oct.
I'm hoping to go the week before & the week after my big 50.
September 23 - Oct 7.

As to Oct.
We went 2005 for 2 weeks.
Even Wilma didn't keep us from having fun.
Yes we were singing in the rain.
Where else can you get soaked down to your HANES & still have fun.

 

[julia & nicks mom]

NO! I don't want there to be any evidence.....

my cell phone and regular camera act are both video cameras as well -

I might need to get some evidence to keep you all in line around here!!

 

[julia & nicks mom]

Well, of course I can, but there's over 350 pictures to muddle through!

Yes he was!!!!

Amy

which is why when you weren't paying attention last night - I got Courtney's email address so I can send her a few interesting links!!

I think I still have a Dorothy costume that I made for dd. It may be too big for BK, though. I think Laura wore it in 2nd grade. If you go this route, I'll look for it.

[julia & nicks mom]

So Kevin just casually told me he mentioned the Disboards to Courtney last night, as he was telling her who party guests were...he didn't share our username, but he thinks he mentioned the t-shirt thread. I seriously doubt she will ever find my comments, but if a new poster suddenly starts attacking me, it's all Kevin's fault!!!

Amy

oh - well if he never shared your user name - she would NEVER be able to guess which one was you!!

Me, too. And I'd really love to see them!

Those are adorable! Maybe with the DDA's help we can get picked for the parade! Where do we need to be to be "seen"? And, the kids have the Hercules costume, red/blue/pink Power Rangers, and Buzz Lightyear costumes from Disney.

Maybe Buzz, Woody, Jesse (BK), Mr and Mrs Potato Head or me as Bo Peep?

That is a great idea! Definitely Bo Peep for you. Then John could choose between Mr. Potato Head or Bullseye. Or maybe Stinky Pete. It would be such a great set!

I'm just going to jump in & update.
The G-Sale went GREAT.
Saturdays sales = 512.00
Sundays sales = 249.00
Total = 761.00
Ad - 18.00
Grand Total = $743.00

I wanted to get 2 little tv's for the bedrooms, end table, coffee table,
2 bar stools, 1 table lamp, & 1 floor lamp.
I have enought to get all.
I haven't touch any of my savings.
I'm so proud of myself.

I still have some very nice Disney stuff left over.
To nice just to go to the Goodwill.

XDH wants to have another 1 before we move.
I'm not sure??
Maybe, I really don't want to do E-bay.

Well I'm back on page 1020.
Going back to catch up.

Jo, Congratulations! It sounds like everything is falling into place.

Thanks for the links! Cute ideas.

Stinky Pete would be hilarious! I thought Disney sold the adult BoPeep last year. I know they sell the kids Woody and Jesse. The Buzz costume is SO HOT is the only problem. Rees would swelter in it, so I may have to still come up with something else.

WTG on the garage sale, Jo!

What time is your tour?

I was hoping to do it on my adult only trip but my friends won't do it. I'll have to wait til Oct so I can do it with my friend's DH. I don't think my DH would want to do it in Aug. I couldn't help but send them the link Clare shared so now they will never do it.

Love your new designs Kate!

Amy I got the same message. Would love to see them.

Ellen-great costumes! How nice to have all those great photos of your now big boys.

DH's mad because I haven't completed the taxes yet and says we'll have a hard time getting someone to watch the kids while we are in jail. He needs to chill!!! He's just mad that I'm Dising. I guess I better go complete the taxes if I want to buy into DVC.
