VWL Lovers & Groupies thread: It all started with a Moose

[Muushka]

2K, your mom sounds like such a lovely woman. Prayers for her and you.

Speaking of San Antonio, what a wonderful city that is! I keep trying to get Mr Muush there, but so far no deal. Riverwalk is beautiful.

DDad, I love that Hawaii picture and you have an impressive shadow!

Thanks Eliza, for the fun trip this AM.

Stopher, you are right, probably just reading that last page would do it.
But OCD-Me felt like to be a good CP 'er, I needed to read the whole thing!

Today I get rid of an 18 year old living room set that has been too big for my NC living room for 14 years!!!
Old set will be gone in an hour or so and new set should be here by 12!
Mr Muush doesn't believe in replacing anything until it falls apart and this darn thing was a Flexsteel and they never die!!!

So DD and I have seen Toy Story 3 twice now and today for the first time we found out something about it we didn't know. For any of you who have seen it, did you know that the trash man is Sid? We were so surprised that we didn't realize that. Now we will have to go and see it again!

I did know that and he got what he deserved!

A request for some extra pixie dust for Mom. She just finished her 7th chemo treatment and it has really done a number on her. She was so weak she could not even sit up. She got a little better yesterday, but right after I left her this morning, she got sick again and I feel a little helpless not being right by her side, but she wanted me and my son to have a little break. Thanks in advance Groupies!!!

Pixie dust & prayers coming your mom's way.

Here are a few pics from our first trip as DVC members in 2001.

Check out the refillable mugs.

I miss those mugs! (Though I still have a ton of them in my pantry. . .)

Well, I escaped a little of the heat. I am in San Antonio for a few days with my son before we pick up DD (Kati) at her summer camp where she works. We went to the Alamo and walked along the Riverwalk (those never get old no matter how many times we do them), and the temps here this afternoon were only 100. When we left home we had already had a 106 and 105 day Tuesday and Wednesday.

First of all I have to ask if you saw the Alamo's basement?
Second I will keep your mom in my prayers and here is some moose dust for her.

I thought so! the tee shirt gave it away not to mention his behavior.

Love your little corgi... so cute so cute

Thanks and I don't know how we missed that it was him!

Some more pics to take us to our happy place. So if you saw these sights where would you be standing?

In the place I wish I was right now!!!

Good for you! I would love to have new furniture! Does it look like the sofa in the Lodge?

I did know that and he got what he deserved!

Yes, it is very fitting!

Thanks for the update!

Jodi Benson gave Ariel her voice.

She's also been in a few other various roles for Disney, including playing the receptionist in the attorney's office in Enchanted...if you've seen that film.

twokats

We will lift your Mom, you and your family up in prayer

Definitely prayer AND pixie dust, too.

I was just coming over to let you all know the CP will begin booking on Aug 26th but I see Stopher beat me to it!

Oh! THAT Jodi Benson!
You know, that might be a good performer to see.
Thanks Stoph!

She's the one I'll see if I end up getting a reservation.

I saw her years ago (pre-Little Mermaid) in a play at the Pasadena Playhouse (goes back decades and was a kind of summer stock theatre in the 40s & 50s...anyway) let me just say - she was incredible.

Sold! Thanks Stopher

 

[DiznyDi]

Prayers heavenward twokats for your mom. Enjoy your time with your son!

Thanks, stopher for the CP info. We hope to participate on the 7th. My calendar is marked, we'll hope to secure a package.

Sitting on the new furniture yet, Muush?

Have a nice week-end Groupies!

 

[Granny]

Jodi Benson was also the voice of Barbie in the Toy Story movies.


Also, I don't think anyone answered Eliza's pop quiz so I'll give it a go in picture order:

1. Buzz Lightyear ride in Tomorrowland
2. Dumbo ride in Fantasyland
3. Splash Mountain in Frontierland
4. Looks like Illuminations in EPCOT World Showcase
5. Beauty & The Beast theatre in DHS


And twokats, prayers going up for your mother.

 

[DaveH]

twokats you and your family are in our prayers.

I saw Whoopi last Dec and she did a great job. There were others in line not sure about her and they loved the job she did.

 

[wildernessDad]

I've got to see Jodi Benson! It looks like a 12/8 date for us! Ah, me and my wife and son, not me and Jodi.

 

[horselover]

I'm starting to sound like WD but just have to say 5 more days!!!!

 

[stopher1]

That's awesome! Soon enough you'll be there now!

My daughter & I went under a month yesterday... can't wait for our special adventure.

 

[wildernessDad]

I'm starting to sound like WD but just have to say 5 more days!!!!

It's contagious!

Only... only?

Only 121 more days to go! I know, 5 beats 121 any day.

I wasn't on for a while and didn't subscribe to this thread so i had t revist the old one and find the June post with a link here! I thought it was really odd that there wasn't any activity for so long! Every so often I thought there HAD to be a new thread but I never actually looked for it...
