TINKGURL & XOKTENOX Conquer Walt Disney World in July~A PTR--UPDATE 8/1

I think I have a feeling about the surprise, but I am keeping my lips sealed, :).
 
Chris's posts are so funny :rotfl:

My guess for the surprise is an upgrade to a deluxe resort!
 
I'm going to guess a resort upgrade, a special order cake (we had one at the Contemporary last December, and it was A-MAZING), or a special meal.
 

Let's throw in our two southern belle daughters for that sing along! Between Hollie and Brooklynn I don't know that you can get much more southern.

That is a wonderful idea Jill!!!! I say just them two! That way we can take pictures and video!!! lol!! They really both are the most southern sounding little ones I have ever heard! :goodvibes
 
So the real reason he posted to play this "game" on here is because I told him not to talk about it because it was driving me crazy hearing about it but not knowing what it is. Then he went ahead and did this so I'd never forget :laughing: Real nice! But go ahead play his game, I'm interested now to see what people will say.

i cant just join because mayb i like disney??? u act like im a mean bf n i enjoy playin games lol why dnt u tell ur freinds about the plan tickets
 
Even though Chris said this in one of his silly posts I just want to reiterate that the surprise will NOT be us getting engaged!! We love each other and have been together for 3 years but are not at the marriage part yet :laughing: Just so no one thinks that's what the surprise is :thumbsup2

I am laughing so hard about Chris' posts! I had a feeling he was doing it just to drive you crazy with wondering! :lmao::rotfl::rotfl2:

I have no ideas what the surprise could be...I'll just sit back and enjoy everyone else's suggestions. :goodvibes

Oh my gosh he is driving me nutso haha I have no idea what the surprise is either, I'm going to be very caught off guard when it happens!

you're welcome! since i'm helping you i can't make any guesses but it will be fun to watch! :) and you may even get other ideas here too. if you do, just e-mail me because i may miss them on here. i try to check back often but sometimes don't read everything. glad you made it on the dis. now you're officially a disney dork, too! :laughing:

Dawn you're definitely a lifesaver :) He is definitely a Disney dork and just hates to admit it!

C'mon Lynn, I wanna hear what everyone guesses! :goodvibes

Ohhhh I like that idea, resort upgrade! *Poly Chris, Poly!* :rotfl: I actually had a cake ordered for Chris for his birthday when we were there last Nov/Dec when we ate dinner at The Wave in the CR. It was so yummy but we only ate like 1/8 of the cake since it was just the 2 of us lol

Girllllll, I am already practicing!!! ;) :lmao::lmao:

:rotfl2: :lmao: Warm up those vocal cords girl!

Let's throw in our two southern belle daughters for that sing along! Between Hollie and Brooklynn I don't know that you can get much more southern.

:rotfl: Jill, hearing any or all of you talk just cracks me up! I don't get to hear Southerners very often and I enjoy it when I do! Brooklynn and Hollie are just extra adorable when they get going with that twang in their voices :thumbsup2

That is a wonderful idea Jill!!!! I say just them two! That way we can take pictures and video!!! lol!! They really both are the most southern sounding little ones I have ever heard! :goodvibes

They are both precious and I love their little Southern voices!

i cant just join because mayb i like disney??? u act like im a mean bf n i enjoy playin games lol why dnt u tell ur freinds about the plan tickets

haha you DO like Disney and don't like to admit it! You make people think I force you to go :headache: Oh yes, thank you for reminding me about the plane tickets babe :hug:
 
As Chris just reminded me, since he is now stalking me via the Disboards, I changed our departing flight today! I think I may have mentioned this a while ago but ever since I booked a flight leaving Long Island at 10:30 I've been mad at myself since there was an earlier flight I could have booked. Earlier flight means more time in WDW. The price of the flight went up really quickly after booking so I've been arguing with myself whether or not to pay the extra for the earlier flight. We got a great deal on the first flight I booked ($89 each way) and it shot up to $137 really fast. Well today I looked on SWA.com and it was at $125...it had gone down and I finally couldn't pass it up anymore. Chris even said it was okay :thumbsup2 So for $72 extra we are now leaving Long Island at 7:35am and should land in Orlando by 10! Hopefully that means we'll be to Pop by 11-11:30 :thumbsup2 I'm so excited because obviously more time in WDW is always a good thing :banana: :yay:
 
Hey everyone, I somehow found my way over here through MeMom. I'm going back to the beginning to start reading but just wanted to introduce myself.
 
Oooh, I wonder what the surprise is Kristen!

And welcome to the DIS Chris! :wizard:
 
Will Heather and Brookie sing to me too?! My b-day is right before our trip! :flower3:

I'm so glad Kristen changed her flight. We were discussing it all morning and Chris gave her the a-okay to change it! :yay:
 
Update:

This is so exciting for us to have all our ADR's planned. It's also exciting that we are eating so many places together! :banana: Please let us know if we are eating at any of your favorite places!

As a former CM and hopefully a future CM, I am sad to say I haven't tried many of these places. I hope that changes.

Chris' bday is Nov 22...when is Landon's?
!

My hunny's bday is Nov 22 too.

Jill had all Disney music. She has the soundtrack that just has the music and no words, and it was beautiful.

Disney music, thats so sweet. I wonder if hunny would go for that for our far-future wedding. :rolleyes1

Bottom line is he may have to have his gallbladder out. He's only 25 yrs old! :sad2:
Sorry to hear that, I hope he is doing much better now.

On a better note, Tink's sister had her prom yesterday and her high school graduation today! Hopefully Tink will be on within the next day or two and can share some pictures with us! :goodvibes

Congrats to tink's sister on graduating. I hope Tink and Kristen did very well on your finals.

Are you guys arranging a DIS meet with any other dissers while you're there? I'm moving back to Fl at the end of June and I'm anxious to meet some Dissers while I'm there before I leave again.
 
im looking foward to expanding my herizon beer wise on this trip i willing to try almost all the beers at disney n make a offical thread of top ten fav
 
Horray for booking the 7:35am flight! Earlier is always better ::yes:: We always like getting to WDW before 11 in the morning. I'd go crazy otherwise, it's wasting the whole day!
