Welcome to the groupies Epcot1985!!!!

And congratulations on getting that contract, couldnt think of a better place to be!!
 
Congratulations, Epcot! I've been thinking that as a non-DVC owner and someone who doesn't get to go to the world very often, I stick out in this group like a sore thumb! But I'm so glad to be welcomed and included!

I guess I could be the cyber equivalent of a stray cat. I'll just roam around the cyber-lodge in cyber space. You guys can sneak me into the parks in your cyber backpacks and bring me leftovers from all the good restaurants!

LOL!:rotfl:
 
Maria
Loving the pics of the wedding possibilities and the new furniture, though the jury is out on me as to liking the new change. May have to see it in person 1st(which I will have no problem in doing):thumbsup2

Thanks JT....I agree about the furniture too. Really stuck out in the lobby.....

WELCOME HOME Epcot !!!

And a second "Happy Anniversary" to Mr & Mrs Stopher. Loved your FB photo !!!

Deal Alert Deal Alert

I was just at Sam's Club and they have Disney gift cards for $46.52 for a $50.00 card.

If you buy them with a credit card that pays 1% cash back, that is nearly an 8% discount!

We are going to need LOTS of gift cards for our June cruise (we're paying grats for 11 :scared1:)!

Please don't post it all over the internet until I get my $1K worth!
 
Congrats on passing ROFR!! That is so exciting!!!

We hope to be groupies in the next year also. We're just watching and waiting for the right contract right now :)
There is a slight correction to be made here. By virtue of occasionally taking part in our rocker-centric discussions here on the VWL thread, you are already a groupie. ;) What you are after is to be a VWL point-owning groupie, otherwise known as a VWLPOG, and no doubt you'll join that segment soon! :thumbsup2

That's true! :upsidedow

Random funny story - I was telling my husband that this may sound silly to him, but *another* ;) reason for us to buy points at VWL is so I could be a part of (what I have found to be) the nicest group on the Dis. He kind of looked at me like this ----> :rolleyes: and said 'OK, well... if that's what you need to tell yourself why we need more points. Let's get them!' :laughing:

I love that man :lmao:

Great anecdote! I, too, have found this the nicest group I've run across on the DIS. :thumbsup2
 
Been busy this week with the new job, but just had to drop by to browse the thread...and my the Groupies continue to be a busy bunch!! :cool1:

STOPHER...congratulations on your business and your success. I know how much you've been working on it and glad to see it paying off for you.

Maria...I noticed the new furniture in the WL lobby right away and my lovely bride said it was the "same as always". So I'm glad to have verification that I wasn't going nuts in thinking it was new. I actually think it works fine with the decor...and definitely a stronger nod to the Native American theming prevalent throughout the property. And it was so nice meeting you and your family, even briefly. My wife and I look forward to meeting you for an extended visit the next time! ::yes::

epcot1985...Welcome to the Groupies, and WELCOME HOME!

rusafee...great story! I have to say, that's one of the more creative excuses for addonitis that I've heard...especially since we don't require VWL ownership to hang out together. :)

So, speaking of hanging out together..... I realized that I don't think I ever properly introduced myself! I mean, sort of.. but not really! My name is Heather :wave: , and I have been married to my amazing husband Bob for 5 years (coming up this May) We went to WDW for the first time together (his first time ever) for our honeymoon. We became infatuated and fell in love with it there. We are full on junkies and we love every minute of it, and after talking about it for a few years we finally joined DVC while we were on the Fantasy last May. Our home resort is AKV... hopefully soon to be VWLPOG's as well ;)

We live in Pittsburgh, and really like it here - but also desperately love to travel and see as much of the world as we can. We decided to celebrate in Alaska the week after 5 year anniversary which also happens to be my birthday.... when I turn 30:eek: SUUUPER excited about Alaska, not so excited for 30 :scared:

We have 3 kitties who are our babies. I work for a bank, Bob works for a pharmacy and aside from our excessive traveling we are the 2 single most boring people on the planet :laughing:

Oh, and I am way too excited about a new camera I bought last week for my trip and I watch an excessive amount of TV... :laughing:

That's me in a nutshell... looking forward to getting to know everyone around here. :goodvibes
 
Welcome Heather! Glad to have you join our group.

I agree, the DIS can be so snarky and people complain so much. But this group is just the best. Everyone is welcoming and willing to answer questions.

Sleepy,
So glad you made that correction. I was all ready to do it when I saw your post.
I was a groupies a long time before my sweet DH told me to go for the VWL add-on.

I spent four years in Alaska a decade ago, and I have the most amazing memories of and love for the state. It's the only place I lived in my career where I didn't want to leave. Have fun! And, it's good to "meet" you. ;)

:wave2: Welcome Heather. I love Pittsburgh, I'm a Pitt Pather!! We may have to do a mini groupie meet as I'll be back at Pitt for my reunion.

LOL I did have to laugh as you are not so excited about turning 30 when this will be my 30th year anniversary class reunion. :rolleyes1 ***gasp*** I graduated the year you were born. boy talk about feeling old!!

But it does feel wonderful that Disney's magic is still going strong and new generations are falling in love with the place.

ok, now for the big announcement!!!


3 MORE SLEEPS UNTIL WE'RE BACK IN THE WORLD!

Still a bit nervous about my initial reaction upon arriving without the old guy, but he'll be there in spirit, so it's all good.

And as always my wonderful sister, who is a fashionista in NYC made me laugh. she sent me a case of waterproof mascara with a note saying, "it is perfect ok to feel a little sad. It is never ok to look that way in family pictures." She lives by the mantra, "there is no such thing as natural beauty"
 
We arrive May 22nd and I can not wait for my boys to play at VWL I really think they will love it. Until now we have been die-hard BCV fans. Beyond excited the more I see about VWL the more I think I will love!
