The VWL Groupies & Trivia Thread

[AmyLuvsMickey]

Hi, everyone - I've been keeping up with this thread for a while, and saw that it was pretty low down on the list today, so I thought I'd introduce myself and get it back up to the top where it belongs!

I just got word on Tuesday that DH and I passed ROFR for our first DVC purchase (VWL, of course!) - and I wanted to let you all know that reading this thread and seeing your enthusiasm and emotional descriptions of VWL helped us to make our decision on where to buy. Thank you for sharing all of your pictures and "favorite moments" stories - you made our choice a no-brainer!

Now I just have to wait for the closing, so that I can book our first trip home! It will also be our DS's first time at WDW (he's 2), and our first real vacation as parents - ought to be interesting...

Awwww, let me be the one of the first to say HOME fellow VWL GROUPIE!!!

You're now officially a Moosehead and there is no turning back!!!

 

[AmyLuvsMickey]

Thanks for the warm welcome, Muushka and diznyfanatic! It feels marvelous to be a Moosehead!!!

 

[diznyfanatic]

jimmytammy - moose dust!!! I love it!!!

newholidayx2 - Welcome to the Groupies! When in August will you be at VWL? I know most people love VWL during the holidays (and so do I) but...ANYTIME of year is a great time to be at the Lodge!

Granny - Thanks for sharing that awesome photo of The Mouse Himself. He looks very dapper in his "Christmas Carol" outfit!

Duckfan - You little guy is adorable. That is such a fun age.

Your new sig is nice, but it is still missing something...... could it be a Moose????

Okay, so I'm new to the whole message board scene... I spent some time this afternoon reading up on how to "pretty up" my sig, what an avatar is, etc, while my DH (an IT professional) chuckled behind my back, but I am proud to say that I did not ask for his help! I think I have everything straight, now, although I'm still not sure I understand tags and the Tag Fairy...

Your new siggie looks great on you!!!

Not that I would know first hand mind you but the Tag Fairy magically bestows a special "Tag" or saying under your name if they are amused or otherwise appreciate something you've said or shared on the DIS.

I remain optimistic and hopeful that someday I might prove worthy of a sprinkling of from the DIS Tag Fairy!

We were fortunate to receive a visit from the infamous DIS Tag Fairy in this very thread when they were kind enough to create our Groupies siggie for us!

 

[jimmytammy]

To funny !! I wonder what "moose dust" looks like or smells like for that matter I love it... just love it

Ahh, the ever elusive Moose Dust! Well, it has a bit of a brown tint to it, with a dash green and splash of deep red. As for the smell, we will leave that to the imagination

I can tell you, everyone here has been put under its spell. And we sure are happy about it!

Your moose looks awesome!! Great job!

Great picture Keliblue -- makes me wish I was there right now!

 

[bobbiwoz]

keliblue, at the risk of being thrown out of the groupies, where are those? Did they replace the moose at the entrance? Great picture, and I'll be there in less than 30 days, yeah!
