Forgot to say yesterday Welcome QJ411!!!

Still laughing about Laxmom's elf name!

Yeah! Poor back-lucky horny elf!


I probably ought to go put in my real name (I know, you all think it's Muushka, right??)

OK. This is just weird. I put in Muushka Muushka yesterday and got Fuzzy Fuzzy.
I just put in my real name (my first name is Barbara) and got Fuzzy Chilly

Do you see the weirdness here?? Muushka and Barbara both yielded Fuzzy! That's it! My other name will be Fuzzy!

Tonight we will be at South Street Seaport for dinner and the Live Singing Christmas Tree. (Woo hoo snaged the laptop for another day)

 

[loribell]

Umm. I think it is defective. What did you guys do to it? Mine came back-lucky horny elf. NO LIE!! What the heck! I like Cutey-floppy baubles better!!! I sure hope the Tag Fairy is not looking!!!

 

[Laxmom]

Ok. This time I just put in my real first name - Susan - and it came back Lucky Elf. I can live with that. So then, I put in my screen name and it said - Scrummy Noodles. Whatever that is!

So it appears that my surname is the weird part. I just won't put that in anymore and go with Lucky Elf in honor of my trip to the Lodge this weekend!

Oh tea pot--how fun! Have a wonderful time.

I'm not going to WDW for Christmas, so I'm living in the past. Here is a picture of one of the beautiful ornaments on the WL tree from last year.

[Muushka]

Cool! Dory feeds us!!

TP, you are quite the globe-trotter! FL one day and NYC the next! Makes me tired just thinking about it

I used to go to Manhattan pretty much every Dec when I was a Yankee. It was very beautiful. And it sounds like you are having quite the time! Say hello to the ice skaters at Rockefeller Center for me!

 

[tea pot]

Have fun in the Big Apple TP...did you go by the Disney Store?

I too am a cat lover!!!

Thanks blossomz..... We plan on going tomorrow.


QJ411 A GREAT BIG WELCOME!!!!!!!!!

First..... DIS Board Christmas Tree Swap.. one day I was over on the planning board and came across this thread DVC 6th Christmas Tree, Sharing a Little DVC Holday Magic . started by WDWSTAR and as she says It is more than just a tree swap. I signed on, So when we arrived we had a "Big Box" waiting for us at Bell Services I was like a kid at Christmas We had a very long travel day filled with airport delays which can make you very tired and grumpy but when I started to unpack that Magical box that bad mood all melted away. Inside there was a table top tree and all the decorations that you could ask for including hanging lights to decorate the rest of the unit. My DDs were arriving Late so we had a chance to set up the tree and decorate before they came.
They were suprised to say the least and then when they found out it wasn't Disney they couldn't believe it. Bell services and Housekeeping are really getting into it with lots of questions and smiles.
So this is how it works some Wonderful DIS Elves donate the tree and decorations and ship them down to the resort then there is a list of people that will pass it along for the months of Nov and Dec when the last family sends it back. SEE First page of the thread.
Most Families leave a donation to cover postage and many families donate an orniment to the box. What a fun idea. go over to planning and check it out but don't stay too long. and hurry right back .


Muushka I'll be sure to say HI to the skaters for you....

 

[50 years Too!]

That was sooooo cute! Those baaaaad kitties! My guess: they are indoor kitties. My cats are indoor-outdoor and just sit under the tree. Bless their furry hearts. 40 years of cats and never had any do what they did! Thank you for the link.

What! No cat box?? I'm jealous.

Welcome Dory, you'll make a great addition to this group.

Ransom, we like to spend time at the Food and Wine Festival in October.

Hi Groupies
It's been a few days since I've been on the Dis (can you believe it?). 'Tis the season... so much to do... so little time... I'm in the midst of cleaning and needed a Groupie break.

to our new Groupies Dory and QJ411! And to anyone else I may have missed!

I've had fun reading over the past few pages and finding everyone's elf name. So just couldn't resist, I'm Cutie Dancing-Gnome If I recall correctly, the credit for this goes to eliza, so thanks eliza for adding this bit of humor! I'm speechless with laxmom's name! Hmmm...

Thanks, Groupies! I really needed this break. The Murphy's Oil Soap smell was beginning to get to me. Now I can get back to work with renewed vigor.

We'll be in the city on Sunday to take DD3 to see the tree, we haven't visited the tree in years...will you be in the area then? Maybe we can say a quick hello! Good luck getting the tickets for the shows, I hear they're phenomenal. Have fun!


THANK YOU, everyone for the super warm homey welcomes!!! Now with joining this thread, I am counting down the days and getting more and more excited each day! I don't have any specific questions really...at least not yet. Oh actually, I do have one. How do I get one of those awesome VWL groupie avatars?

Thanks again for the welcome!!!

Well, QJ411, ya steal it!

Oh! Formal directions? I saved these from another time:

IMG]http://www.wdwinfo.com/photopost/uploads/43490/groupsm2.jpg[/IMG]

1. I removed the left bracket so that you can copy him, just add the [ to the left of the IMG].
2. Click on "User CP" at the top left of the page.
3. Click on "Edit Avatar"
4. Add the above stuff and paste him in (don’t need to use the insert image thingy)
5. Click the SAVE button, and you're done.

Let me know if that doesn't make sense.

You know, I forgot to say

Welcome to the herd QJ411 and Dory! The Moose wanted to come out and

PS The dancing moose was brought to you by our Maria. Our resident clip art artist.
(But I think there might be some healthy competition on it's way!)

 

[tea pot]

WOW is it Busy
We don't normally go during peek but this just worked out for our 3 adult DD's
with work and grad school not to mention that we were able to have Thanksgiving at my SIL's. We haven't been together on this Holiday in 10 years.... long over due.
WED Magic Kingdom..... Well we usually get to the parks at rope drop so we can get in the most popular rides then maybe snag a fast pass to return later in the day. (and I love the little opening show at the train station) This way by noon we can take our time to wander around or even go back for a mid-day swim or rest. But the best made plans don't always work.
DD's didn't arrive till past 1AM.. poor kids... and by the time we went to bed it was 2;30am Tue night. Next day we arrived at MK at Noon had lunch reservations at the Plaza
then headed over to Thunder Mountian the girls got in line (no fast passes left) and we headed off and said call us when you get off the ride. While the girls waited in line we saw the Coutry Bears.... shopped.... and watched the 3 o'clock Parade.

Give me back May,Sept, and Early Dec.
