"We Ain't From Around Here!"-The South Does Disney! A Dec PTR Update 1/11-Prizes!

[ChildAtHeart82]

What a great list! We're looking forward to a lot of those too!

 

[shelbys mommy]

Oh hush! You are beautiful!!

Thanks!

I love the list!!!!!! I can't wait to hear about your PaP experience! I have the boys send over some pixie dust!!!!

 

[therussells08]

I LOVE your list! You really put so much thought into it! I hope you have a magical vacation with John, you really deserve it!

I don't know how I left shopping off any of my lists! I'm not a big shopper, I just don't ever really spend money on myself, but when I'm at Disney, I like to go a little crazy! Especially with ornaments!

I love visiting different resorts! I'm hoping to explore more of the Poly this year (last year when we went to Kona we just went to the restaurant area and I didn't see much of anything else there) and I can't WAIT to see AKL in person!

And the Christmas decorations are unbelievable! You are going to die when you see Cinderella's castle with those lights...even Brandon was speechless last year when he saw the castle, and he can take the castle or leave it!

Thank you so much!

I have never even stepped foot on a deluxe resort at WDW, so I am really excited to check them out this time! Hopefully I can stay at one someday!

I am SO excited about seeing Cinderella's castle with the lights...I remember how I felt the first time I saw the castle in person, and I think it is going to feel like that all over again!

I love your list! #1 is the best, of course I kind of wish I had someone special to spend this trip with, but spending it with my Dis friends (and alone) will have to do Better to be at Disney alone than not at all, right?

Thank you! You are definitely right, and as I type this you are at MNSSHP with Heather and Brad, so it sounds like you are having a blast with some of the coolest DISers around!

I love your list. I think I may have to steal this idea also.

I love shopping, but hate paying full price for anything.

That's my dream trip to be able to visit DW at Christmas time. The castle is so beautiful in the pictures I've seen, it must be amazing to see in person.

Thank you! Steal away!

I am really excited to see WDW all decorated for Christmas. It's going to be beautiful, I'm sure!

What a great list! We're looking forward to a lot of those too!

Thank you!

Thanks!

Thank you! I am really looking forward to PaP after I read about it in your TR!

Hi everyone! It's Saturday, so you know what that means! It's time for Round 16 of The Waiting Game! Wow, I can't believe I have been posting this for 16 weeks! And now there are only 9 more before our trip!

I have been getting texts tonight from some of my dearest DIS friends (DisneyFirefly and HeatherBelle614) who met up at WDW and are enjoying MNSSHP together! I wish so badly I could be there with them, but I know my trip is only 64 days away!

Okay, let's get down to business! Remember everyone, the first person to guess correctly wins a point. Please, only guess once and don't edit your guess after it's posted! Good luck!

Please name the ride or attraction with this Fast Pass sign:

Is it Splash Mountain? (Haha just kidding...I'm late since someone forgot to text me last night )

DisneyFirefly was texting me all day yesterday, then when she met up with Heather and sent me a pic of both of them...I wish we were both there, Joni, that's our group right there, imagine how much fun it would be if we were all there together? Someday our DIS trip will happen!

 

[Daddy_of_Princesses]

I'm going with Splash Mountain. I haven't gone to Disney enough to recognize these signs, so I am just saying what everyone else did.

 

[stephielela]

I love your list! I am going to steal it for my PTR! I can't wait to hear about your WWoHP adventure!

 

[RachelNinja]

I really need to do a real update (or even a game update) for my PTR! There are never enough hours in a day.

I love how you said that you "shop with a purpose"! Haha, I think I CAN shop that way too. I actually don't really like wandering into shops as much as knowing that I want to look for this and that. I get really excited when I find it! That's what happened last year when I was on a hunt to find the Mickey egg/pancake rings!

I'm thrilled that we'll be able to see the Poly this year since we have an ADR for 'Ohana! I've NEVER been on Disney property before!

Although we won't be doing DDP this time, I'm excited to see YOU do it DELUXE! Mmm, lots of food pictures are expected!!!

I'll definitely be linking your WWoHP updates to my cousin and her boyfriend because they're very much looking forward to having a day there.

Huh, I never noticed that right above "FASTPASS DISTRIBUTION" is an itty-bitty "Disney's." I just noticed it on your last game! Hehe, Brer Rabbit is also hanging out in the corner of the pic!

Yesterday was a fun day for me even though I missed your game. I went to NJ to pick up my WEDDING DRESS from a friend who picked it up for me from David's Bridal! I have my own dress in my possession!!! We spent the day with her husband and their almost 2-year old daughter. I can't believe Howard and I are moving to this point in our lives that we even have friends who have kids!

Hi there! It's Sunday evening and I have been relaxing and being a bum all day! It's been great! I have a weird crush on Adam Richman, the host of Man Vs. Food confused3), so I have been watching my MvF DVDs all day. That is just the greatest show to me. And now before I go enjoy a delicious dinner made by my wonderful mother (country style steaks ) I am going to post the results for The Waiting Game!

The answer this week was Splash Mountain! We had a lot of folks guess the correct answer, but the round went to ChildAtHeart82! Great job!

Here is the updated scoreboard:

Scoresheet
DisneyFirefly- 1
Nermel9- 3
ChildAtHeart82- 4
RachelNinja- 6
HeatherBelle614- 1
shelbys mommy- 1

RachelNinja is still in the lead, but ChildAtHeart82 has taken second place! Remember, we still have nine more weeks until my trip!

In other news, John will be home from training in three weeks! I am so excited to see him, even if it's only for one day. I need some hubby in my life!

Alrighty well I am going to go enjoy my tasty dinner! I hope that everyone had a fantastic weekend! See ya real soon!

You got it! Great job!

My guess is already taken. Splash mountain. Maybe next time

There's plenty of time before my trip! Good luck next time!

That's Splash Mountain.

Yep! You got it!

You got it! I already posted this on your FB, but I'm sorry I didn't text you! You still love me, right?

I KNOW...we seriously should be there! When I saw those pictures I am almost fell out. We absolutely MUST plan a meet sometime next year, even if it's just for a weekend!

Steal away! I am so excited to share my WWoHP experience with all of you!

I can't believe Howard and I are moving to this point in our lives that we even have friends who have kids!

I know what you mean, I feel like I never have time to update my PTR or to read others' updates, even though I really want to!

I am a shopping fanatic! I have already finished over half of my Christmas shopping, and it's still October! I love shopping the most when I am shopping for other people, which is why I love Christmas shopping and shopping at Disney so much. I get so excited when I find the perfect souvenir! And this year will be even better than usual because we are going to the WWoHP and my mom and sister are huge Harry Potter fans!

I'm so excited to see the Poly too! I have seen all of these pictures and in my opinion it is the beautiful resort at WDW! Plus I hear the food at Kona and 'Ohana is amazing!

Don't worry, I will definitely deliver with the food pics! I am planning on doing mini dining reviews throughout my TR! I am already working on my rating system and everything!

I am really excited about my WWoHP day and I will be posting a very detailed report! I love trying new things, so this is going to be great!

I didn't notice Brer Rabbit in the pic until after I posted it! I guess I sort of gave that one away, huh?

Yesterday sounds like it was a great day! That is SO exciting that you got your wedding dress! I can't wait to see pictures, even if I have to wait until after your wedding so Howard won't see! I know what you mean about being at that point in your life. A lot of John's Army friends have several children, and it always feels so strange spending time with them because I am used to relating more to the kids than the parents, but now it's the other way around! I think that when I reach the day as a teacher that I am old enough to be my students' mother (even though that is a long time from now) I will feel this way too. It will seem so surreal!

 

[ChildAtHeart82]

We're big fans of Man vs. Food as well. I'm glad John will be home soon!

I love that show! I watch it all the time. As a matter of fact, I'm watching it as I type this! Thank you! I'm glad too!

LOL, of course I still love you, even though you're ruining my chances of winning!!!

We definitely have to figure out a time for us to all meet up next year, there's a whole new year ahead of us, there has to be a weekend that will work for everyone!

 

[shelbys mommy]

boo I missed it, stupid fire!!!!

 

[DisneyFirefly]

I missed it, but with good reason! I'll likely also miss tonight's, since I'm going to a Halloween party

We really do need to set up a Dis trip! I don't know if Sharon would be able to make it, but it would be awesome if we all were there at the same time

 

[therussells08]

boo I missed it, stupid fire!!!!

Stupid fire is right! Not because you missed the game, but because I haven't talked to you in forever because of it!

I missed it, but with good reason! I'll likely also miss tonight's, since I'm going to a Halloween party

We really do need to set up a Dis trip! I don't know if Sharon would be able to make it, but it would be awesome if we all were there at the same time

You definitely had a good reason! I just subbed to your TR. I can't wait to read more!

YES, I want to set up a Dis trip so badly! That would be amazing!

 

[DisneyFirefly]

I saw I could have written more, but my dad kicked me off the computer I need my own back.

We really do need to set up a Dis trip that would be so much fun
