haha didn't think this would start a international conflict...lets play nice guys...we love you both like little sisters.

Sounds like someone's still a little bitter about that whole "American Revolution" thing. It's been over 230 years. Time to let it go.
:rotfl2::rotfl2::lmao::lmao::rotfl::rotfl:
 

I'm 42 years old, and have never been to WDW or DL before. So I can't really answer "yes" to any of the membership questions. But I'm in charge of the planning for my family's first-even WDW trip this October, and I've definitely caught the Disney bug in the process. So can I please, please be a DIS Dad? :D
 
OK... so I'm from Ohio originally... I know snow... grew up with it. But my daughter has never had the chance to REALLY play in it... until this week. So, for you guys who are very much tired of seeing snow, please disregard this post! :lmao: Our area hasn't seen this kind of snow since like 1986... so it's fun to get to pass on some snow-playing fun.

Went outside with DD yesterday afternoon and I checked how the snow was doing. Turned out it was that PERFECT snow-packing consistency... just grab a hand full, pack, and throw. So then I started making a bigger snow ball... as I rolled it on the ground it was picking up all the snow down to the grass. It got big, fast. In case you're wondering... here's yours truly... picking up the middle ball... in a t shirt (you can see the path the first ball made):





Here he is... finished product:


Since the snow was so perfectly ready for packing, I turn to DD and ask her if she would like to make an igloo... of course she did... she's 7! HAHA! So her friend helped us start the igloo. I really should not have made this so big... this was a LOT of work.







This smile did not last long...




I put one more row of "bricks" after this picture, then had to finish it with a plywood roof. The snow had frozen back up and I had no more "good" snow to work with. So here's a few of the final product... DD loves it!:











So much FUN!!! The girls had to make it their own... love the purple scarf!

Your passion for Disney equals that of a 7 year old kid.
You have a wife that thinks you are a big kid.
You watch the Free WDW DVDs every week.
You get more excited than your kids when a trip to WDW is planned (or the excitement at least equals that of your kids).
When planning family reunions, class reunions, and job conventions you always plan them at Disney World.
You nick-named your son and daughter Mickey and Minnie.
You planned your next Disney trip the day after returning from Disney World.
Your eyes start to water with tears of joy when you see your kids having a great time at WDW (and you secretly try to dry your eyes).
Your portfolio includes stock in Disney.
You have friends and family that do not understand why you vacation in WDW every year (or at least talk about doing it).
You have everything Disney for wallpapers and screensavers.
You have Disney knicknacks all over your "man cave/dude room/office."
You drink your coffee from one of your multiple Disney mugs.
You have Disney Luggage.
Y
You have Goofy PJs and slippers, Mickey PJs and bathrobe and a lot of other Disney clothing.
You have Disney Character ties to wear (Mickey, Donald, Goofy, etc.).
You have a Disney background on your laptop with a count down calender on it.
All of your family photos seem to be taken at WDW.

You constantly watch disney movies.
You have a disney CD in your car or truck right now.
When you and your wife are reading the DISboards she asks you "what is ToT, RnRR, EE and BTMRR, and you know the answers.

You wear a matching Disney shirt with your kids to the parks.

Your boss quits asking where you are going on vacation - he already knows.
You DO call DVC your second home.
You have a Disney vanity plate on your auto (ex. MGK KGDM
When you walk into the Disney Store the employees shout your name like Norm in Cheers!
You did your best to "brainwash" your kids early so they wouldn't have any problem ever wanting to go on a Disney Vacation.
You only feel fulfilled when you know you have another trip on the horizon.
You can't decide if you want to go on a Disney Cruise, to Walt Disney World, or to Disneyland for your next vacation (if you can afford it the Disney Resorts over seas are in the equation as well).
Your office is like a shrine to Disney and it gets bigger and bigger every year.
You use your kids as an excuse for all the people who ask why you're going back to WDW again. "It's for the kids!" Although the people who know you best know not to believe that.
Simply put...there is no place you would rather go on vacation than at WDW, Disneyland, on a Disney Cruise, or at any of the Disney resorts over seas.


You've been to Walt Disney World too many times to count. It almost feels like you grew up there.


While watching a show that you recorded on the TiVO, you forwarded through the commercials but stopped and watched the WDW commercials. Even the ones that you have seen hundreds of times.
Every weekend you have "Disney Movie Night" with your family.
You own a Mickey waffle iron.
You own the "Classic Disney" CD collection and listen to it every night at dinner with your family.

Your kids insist on going to Disney every vacation. When you ask if they're getting tired of it yet, they look at you like you've grown a second head.
You have Mickey, Donald, and Goofy sleepwear.
Your wife wakes you up in the middle of the night because you've been talking about Disney in your sleep again.
Every month you rotate the metal license plates on your cars (Disney Cruise line, Animal Kingdom, MGM , Epcot, Magic Kingdom, and Donald official fan club).
You promise to fund a big DIS Dad's Club Meet and Greet at WDW when you hit the Power Ball.
When it comes to Disney World you just can't get enough!!! No matter how many times you go!
It is easier to list all of the criteria here that do not apply to you than it is to list the ones that do.
You have Disney character golf club covers.
You have helped plan many Disney vacations for fellow employees in your department. Now you are getting phone calls from other departments asking, "Hey are you the guy I need to talk to about planning my Disney Vacation?"
You keep your Mickey Mouse umbrella in the car/truck and proudly use it while walking in to your office during a rainstorm.
Your passion for Disney is strong but you would rather get soaked before using your wife's/daughter's Tinker Bell umbrella
You own a Mickey Mouse toaster.
The cake topper on your wedding cake was Mickey & Minnie.


You have a Mickey telephone (one of those old stand up kind from the 80's, like the large one reproduced at POP).
You had a Mickey wedding cake knife at your wedding.

You have a standing deal with your wife that you can visit Disney every year as long as you take the kids.

You've gone to disney for so many vacations that your kids think the word "vacation" is just a short way to say, "Trip to Disneyworld."

You only know one phrase in spanish - "please stand clear of the doors..."
You can identify Disney restaurants by their signature food (Tonga Toast, etc.)

You have antenna toppers on all your vehicles, even at work(looks really cool on construction, aircraft support vehicles and aircraft).
You know the roads at and around WDW better then your own neighborhood.
You have so many Disney shirts you have to decide which ones to take and which ones to leave home when you leave for vacation


You have endured or are willing to endure the hazing process to become a DIS Dad's Club Member which involves...... Walking until your legs and feet ache, crowded queues with hundreds of strangers, standing in the hot Florida sun until your skin burns, and finally emptying your wallet of any savings.
You play the "please stand clear of the doors" monorail spiel as you pressed the auto-close button for the kid's sliding door in the minivan.

Welcome to the club!

I do the same thing! All major life events happened between trips to the world.
I've never called just to talk, but wouldn't the world be a better place if everyone (even the IRS) wished your a magical day every time you called?
Welcome to the club!

That's when you take out the Double "A"s and slap in some "D" cells. Get In, Sit Down, Shut Up and Hang On!
