The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 4

[weluvdisney]

Marti, when I'm there, I'm going to ry this. I've only had the regular Dole whips so far. Yummmmmmm

I've never had a Dole Whip before either!!!

 

[weluvdisney]

YAY!!! I want to wait for Southwest to release fares before I buy. But I'll tell you, airfare in hand solidifies the trip.

That's what I'm waiting for too!!!!

 

[weluvdisney]

Ha ha...very funny! Now, I'm going to rat you out and tell everyone you were with me when I bought all the treat bag "ingredients."

Amy

P.S. Wow, have you been on a posting frenzy!

Not the ones for my bag and Kate's apparently!!!!!

 

[weluvdisney]

Now, if only you could tell me his password.

He's not sharing it with me...claims he may have to use his "secret identity" again someday.

Amy

When he does this does he break out the spy kit and morph into James Bond????

 

[weluvdisney]

Your birthday is right before mine! I'll have to add you to the birthday thread... and anyone else who thinks they can get away with not being on it. Just ask Nancy, you can't hide for too long!

I noticed that you added mine!!!

THANKS!!!

 

[weluvdisney]

Bill is more the surprise her with a piece of jewelry guy...he's not the planning a trip type. but then he has been doing things more and more that I wouldn't expect.

Jewelry is always good!!!!

 

[weluvdisney]

OK my little posting party is finished!!! I guess I am off to bed since no one else seems to on and I have to be up in 5 hours !!!

Good Night Everybody!!!

 

[julia & nicks mom]

My dad has been out of town for almost two weeks and just got home - the kids were dying to see him so once Julia hit her 24 hour period - we went to meet him for dinner -

I had to run in 2 stores and she begged to go with me - which I reluctantly agreed to -

we went in old navy first and she danced to the music playing the whole way through the store

then she saw a full length mirror and that was it - she stood in front of it admiring herself and wiggling her little hips

I dragged her away from the mirror and headed to TJ Maxx - we walked past the dresses and she begged to try one one - we ended up picking out 12 and headed to the dressing room - she puts on the first one - that was an a-line and was REALLY poofy from the bustline down -

my 4 yo looks at me and says - Mom - this won't do - it makes my hips look big - it is beside the point that she was absolutely correct but where did she hear this - Hannah Montana - her brother said it last week We had a whole discussion that she did not need to worry about how her hips looked b/c she was just perfect - I know that this is a very serious issue - but she really doesn't need any more boosting in the self image department!!!!

so then a dress or two later - she belts out the words "if you wanna be my lover..." I was mortified and asked "WHERE DID YOU HEAR THAT SONG?!!?" "Chicken Little"

here I thought I was providing my children nice wholesome programming and that is what she takes away from them!! It is going to be a long 16 years!!!

 

[weluvdisney]

At least she wasn't singing "Whatcha gonna do w/ all that junk, all that junk inside your trunk-my hump-my hump-" like someones sweet DD was doing tonight in Target !!!!

 

[weluvdisney]

Now I really am going to bed!!!!

 

[weluvdisney]

Too bad I'm not tired !!!!

 

[rosiejo]

Kevin's new screen name was so secretive too -

KMH1indisguise

Amy - you were not very cooperative either - it was our mission to see if Kevin was the only reason you weren't going but you just wouldn't back down!!!

As soon as you said you bought a house - I knew it was over!!!

We would have loved to have you

and Kevin definately gets brownie points!

KMH1indisguise I love it

And bless Kevin for being such a sweetie

 

[rosiejo]

I’m on my way to take the girls to gymnastics, but had to tell you all this.

So we have had to put a baby locks on the refrigerator this past week because Bethie had been opening it.

Well I forgot last night to lock it and woke up to a clunking noise. Bethie was getting the stool out of the bathroom and on her way BACK to the freezer to get the items on the upper shelf. She had been it the freezer already and eaten the peas and was trying to get the dippers (little ice cream drops).

This morning I forgot to “baby lock” it and after loading the washing machine, I found her in it again telling me she needed some cheese.

Now this afternoon, I have had to put the kitchen stepladder outside because she has learned how to lean it up and climb it.

Good grief, I need some calgone.

Oh that just tickled me! That child is way too resourceful

DDA TRIP REPORT

Thursday, May 18

5:00 pm The last thing I remember clearly was arriving at the airport. I was a few minutes early and knew that I needed to get a lot of drinks in – so I decided to have a quick drink at the airport bar. I brought a list of everyone in the DDA so that I could have a drink for them: I started at the top: Tammi67 (She’s going…I don’t need to drink for her!!) Next: julia & nicks mom (that’s me) Next: Tink2020 – you get the first toast in the airport bar…next up is Glynis – I better stop…it is time to board…WDW here I come!!!

5:45 pm Once onboard, I check my list - Steamboat Marti (she is already drinking in WDW) Next is babytrees, rosiejo & UP Disney – I better quit – the flight attendants are looking at me funny and I still have to get a rental car…

9:00 pm I head to Downtown Disney to meet the girls…I better toast a few more…itdjbw, Cinderumbrella, tmfranlk –

9:25 OH there’s someone with the same shirt on as me…Just in time for a toast to KMH1, triplefigs, and Steffy…

11:00 we head to our room – and as we reach the Pop – I can’t get the song BOP BOP BOP BOP TO THE TOP… out of my head…I wonder if I am annoying the others…oh not at all - Tammi is ready to dance We’re all in this together with me…

11:15 We decide that going to the pool might be the best place to showcase our talents…and of course toast a few more of our fellow DDA’s - tinknme, my3princes and our final toast of the evening to the birthday girl: bethbuchall (let’s have two for her!!)

Friday, May 19
8:00 am We need to get to MGM before all those Star Wars Freaks – oops I mean fans…lets toast our trip with some mimosa’s first!!! lmartin2711 & marcij and we are off!

9:00 am We go straight to ToT and RnR – we start on RnR – Marti goes on a Margarita run to the Backlot Express while we ride ToT – she got two for each of us – so we can toast bear74 & Eeyorecln – next up to toast - KristineN – but she is with us so we can take a break. Into WWTBAM – Damn – they are all Star Wars Questions – we leave and duck in the commissary to toast tinker1bell & MinnieMouseMom –

Hey look – there’s R2D2 – what do you mean I can’t walk in the street – the parade isn’t until this afternoon – oh there’s an 11:00 Star Wars parade – oops

Then we ran into an ewok -

– they are not a friendly species

11:30 Time to hit Prime Time café – we should really behave since Matthew and Paul are eating with us – but a couple of toasts should be okay: ReAnSt & PNO4TE – why does my waitress keep yelling at us? This is certainly not Disney Magic

12:30: look Darth Vader – light saber fight – oh – that’s not Darth Vader – oops –

the very cute security guard

suggests we head to our hotel for an afternoon break Forget that – we are staying at a value resort – hey Kristine is staying at the Poly in December – I think that gives us pool rights there!!

Time for a few mai tais as we toast: dumby; kc10family and Tinkaroo

2:30 we enter the Magic Kingdom –they don’t serve alcohol here – so we can sober up a bit – Philharmagic is really cool after a few drinks – but the carousel made me a little quesy – let’s try space mountain!!!! When was the last time we ate? Let’s get a Dole Whip

5:30 – That wasn’t enough - maybe we should go grab dinner – let’s go drink and eat our way around Epcot: bengalbelle; Brendita; Princess Nancy; lovesdumbo; mgkkgdm (oops – he is here – let’s toast him anyway!!); weluvdisney; Blueeyes101817; ellenbenny; disneyeveryyear; karebear1; MidNite

10:00 pm How did we end up at Beaches and Cream?!?!? They don’t even serve alcohol here – oh – but they have ice cream – nevermind

11:00 pm – we make it to our room – Bop Bop Bop Bop to Pop – I brought a hand blender – are those illegal – we mix a few margaritas and toast PrincessLeighsDaddy; lovespoohbear & chaoscent

Saturday, May 20 – my head hurts –

7:15 – we have to be at Epcot in an hour for our Segway tour – but my head still really hurts – let’s have a few Bloody Mary’s to cure our hangover…mommykds &
ksoehrlein – maybe a couple more - legalslave; macntosh & monicatb

8:30 am – we start our Segway Tour – why can’t I stay on this darn thing – why won’t it go straight –

look we made it to the World Showcase - there’s Mexico – there’s china; italy; America; France; Canada – back to Future World – we did it!!! Let’s celebrate with a toast to: WeLoveTheMouse

11:00 am – we ride Soarin’ - and I can’t stop singing “We’re Soaring, flying, there’s not a star in heaven that we can’t reach…”

11:30 am – a toast to eeyore45 and into Turtle Talk with Crush we go: we ask Crush –what is the best way to get a turtle out of his shell? His answer: “all you gotta do is rub his shell a little!!”

12:00 Time for lunch – let’s eat and drink our way around the World again: yellowfish78; Moonbeams; disney newbie; krdisneybound; poohangel; Shriva (what the heck) - Baloo – let’s have two for her – she puts up with a lot from us!!! ladylucca, Disneygrl36, kadaten

We really enjoyed the Food and Wine Festival – oh it was the Flower and Garden Festival – hmmm… I wonder if that is why the characters weren’t so friendly?!?!

6:00 pm Back to the MK – time for a Mickey Bar and a Dole Whip and what they heck – let’s have two of each – The lights in Spectromagic are really pretty – why are there so many kids at Walt Disney World – all their whining is really annoying; and what is with all the damn strollers – if your kid can’t walk around Disney world – they just aren’t old enough to appreciate it


11:00 – We arrive at Jellyrolls – we have a lot of toasting to do:
cocowum;sconnell;MazdaUK;mommy2emmersNmo;DavidUK;stenogoddess;2diamonds&a~gem;mommyintn;Linzybrooke;challada;uofl;Dimk;VickynMickey;SueRS;Marilou;Stephieann

Sometime later that night: We decided to upgrade to the BW – truth be told we have no idea what hotel we are staying at and I decide to follow very wise advice:
No, no, no
Stick to the stuff you know
If you wanna be cool
Follow one simple rule
Don't mess with the flow, no no
Stick to the status quo

Sunday, May 21 –

5:30 am We wake up early – what the hell is the manager’s problem – we own DVC – we have the right to be here – what happened to welcome home – can’t I sleep on my own couch?!?!

– I need a mimosa – here’s to Joann & allen68

now I remember – Bop Bop Bop Bop to the Pop – we better check out – can you believe it – we did not get a towel animal the whole time – no tip for mousekeeping!!!

9:00 – we are at AK to ride EE – that was so much fun!! Then we go see Festival of the Lion King and head to WL for lunch

12:30 – what do you mean you won’t put Bailey’s in my bottomless milkshake?!? That’s okay – I brought my own – now we toast - wannabecruiser; MickeyMamma; miss missy (again – what they heck) Cinderella Fan & Mom323 (wow that was a lot of drinking!!)

Oh I needed that... I'm on my way back to bed to sleep off this lurgy and that's just cheered me up no end!

Better pick myself up off the floor now

 

[rosiejo]

And I was so ecstatic to be first on there.... I thought I was really something special. Until I realized you were just going by who talks the most

I thought the same when I was so near the top of the list... I never realised I posted so much... hmm must really get myself a life outside of the DDA

 

[rosiejo]

hey Kristine -

what if Bill booked a surprise trip for you!?!?!?

 

[rosiejo]

At least she wasn't singing "Whatcha gonna do w/ all that junk, all that junk inside your trunk-my hump-my hump-" like someones sweet DD was doing tonight in Target !!!!

Stop please! You two are killing me with the stories

They do say that laughter is the best medicine though
