wow, I worked all weekend and logged back in to find 20-something pages to read! You sure have had all the luck with your flying companions!
I so don't get the sour grapes/sore loser thing.
I saw it as kind of having the best of both worlds. It was a great game. Both teams played well. The US lost, but Sid scored the winning goal. I'm cool with that.
Congrats to Canada!
I had to come out of lurkdom to share what my husband thought of your Gardetto's pic. We were at Panera having lunch yesterday and I was reading this update, laughing (as usual), so DH asked what I was laughing about. I showed him the update and he perked up at the words "food porn" but was very disappointed by what he calls the "soft food porn." He thinks it doesn't qualify as true food porn because "all the good stuff is covered."
Can't wait for the next update!
People we have a new phrase.....soft food porn....I wish I had some Canadian in me too!! All I have is Irish, German and a ton-a-ton of Cherokee Indian!!
What a combo!!
Sure hope I can attend this Peep Fest!!
The Canada hockey win was crazy. I'm kinda annoyed that Crosby made the scoring goal. Just boosts his ego that much moreThe celebration here in Toronto was nuts. They had to close down parts of Yonge street! I didn't hear about any "sore loser" comments?
I would love to get in on PeepFest, if I can? I know I'm kinda new around here but I have bounced in and out of your TR's before (they're hilarious btw) You're turning 50?!?!I wouldn't have guessed a day over 35. I'll definitely need a Disney fix in 2012, unless I end up working there (something I've been considering recently) But if I end up staying where I am right now, I could do either Option 2 or 3. Might not be able to do both the cruise and WDW but if I'm going to do Disney, I think WDW would be my choice. I'd be bringing my mom and sister along for the ride
I have been thinking about a land/sea vacay...my excuse to spend that much is Evan will graduate the first week of June, so it's a last family vacation with all my kids.
I think we'd need to do the 3 or 4 day cruise, budget wise. Regardless, I will be at peepfest with or without the family.
Financially, would most likely just do the land portion of your Peepfest. Unless of course I could get my mom to agree to come down for the second week and spend the week with our son on land while DH and I go to sea. (Mom says she'll NEVER do a cruise.)
So, no matter what you decide, IF my family can make it down in any form (all of us or just part of us), we'd only be there for the land portion.
Ditto this. I'm playing with the idea of just mom, myself, and the kiddo hitting up the World during the summer without my dad and my hubby. She and I have been wanting to do a mother/daught/son-grandson trip. So, if we could swing it financially, we'd be down there for 8-10 days at Pop.
It's nearly impossible for Terry to get summer off...
Hmmm... Maybe Peepfest can be my first solo adventure...
My husband (Middlepat on the Dis) grew up in Canada but has lived in the US for 10+ years. His wife and children are American
Truth be told, I'm glad Canada won. Otherwise, I'd have a mopey Middlepat for a while. And that's no fun.
I feel compelled to share a Baylor story...
We were all seated apart on a flight to Orlando last May.
As we got off the plane Baylor informed me that he had gotten sick upon landing.
I asked if he was able to use the barf bag.
He replied yes.
I asked if he gave it to the flight attendant.
He said no.
He put it back where he got it.
It was too late at that point to do anything about it.
I guess that's what they get for seating a 10 year old away from his parents.....
As for peep fest or should we say poop fest
it all sounds good to me!
I have to go and look at those exact dates vs. DH's work schedule. If he gets a promotion between now and then that actually won't be a factor since he will then have plenty of paid vacation leave.
Well, since we are now DVC owners (I love saying that), the chances of us getting to do land AND sea are actually within reach. However, since we would still be strapped for time, we'd have to do the 3,4 or possibly 5 night cruise. Depending on the number of nights for the cruise would tell us how many nights we can spend at WDW. (have i confused you enough yet?) ALL of this actually depends on the cruise dates. Because if those don't line up properly then we can't do the cruise at all.
Hmmmm, will go look at dates and try to boggle my brain some more.......
Ouch!
We'd be in for PeepFest 2012 (I'd be celebrating my 41st birthdaybut don't feel a day over 29!) if Fantasyland was done. Land only, we're definately not a cruise family. End of June works the best for us, exams would be done by then -- so all in all, option 3!
There was a Game ???????
Can u imagine us on a cruise?
I would do Land ONLY and I will be celebrating my 65th!!!!
Don't think I could splurge so it would be Pop!!! Which part of the 16 days is flexible Although workwise the 15th thru the 24th would be great!!! This is a MUST do for me !!! I will use ALL my 403B if necessary!!!
Hi Jordan!
I'm planning to leave the kids at home for PeepFest, so it won't be a full week for me... perhaps a three-to-four-day visit.
DCL sounds dreamy, but I'd prefer Land over Sea; purely for financial reasons. (We're doing our big Christmas Vacation trip 12/11.)
School lets out here on June 21.
If the WDW portion is before that, I'll be solo.Anything after the 21st could be Ed & me!
BTW, I am not a bit surprised that you are working on your itinerary!! This blow-out is going to take lots of planning!
Kathy
I'm with Rosie for this one (unless her family goes along) and will also be an early celebration of my 65th too!!
Would only do Land portion and see if I can convince on Rosie to upgrade from POP. If not, will likely splurge on whichever resort has been most recently refurbed.
Not sure about dates, but whatever falls into place will likely work fine for me too.
I'm a lurker most times, but enjoy popping in now and then. Which reminds - think I missed your birthday, Jordan - so a bit belated, but very Happy Birthday wishes. May your year be blessed and may all your wishes come true.
I like all of the options
There isn't a bad choice in the bunch.
As much as I'd want to take part in my 1st Peep Fest, May, June & the beginning of July is rough for me. I work pretty much every day... financially, I be leaving too much on the table. Maybe I can be part of a Mini Peep Fest someday... or a Pep Fes. OR I can just live vicariously through your TRs.
Just casting my vote here, Jordan!
We will have just been cruising on the Dream in January of 2012, so no cruise for us.
The end of June, early July is completely do-able!I turn 39 on July 1st
I sure would LOVE to come hang out with and finally meet you for the big 5-0.
Thanks for thinking of all of us on your special 'big day'!!
Being left at Castaway Cay would be my choice!!
I love good pancakes!
I didn't drink too much beer on the trip..
Oh and more restroom fodder coming up....
