What took you so long to get here?! A Dec TR - update 1/28 MVMCP!

Hi! I lurked for a long time on your PTR so figured I would stop in and say hi. :wave2: Christmas is my favorite time of year but so far it hasn't worked out for me to be in Disney during the holiday season. So for now I will have to live vicariously through your trip report.
 
I'm joining this party too!

:welcome:

I have no idea who you are talking about???

D~

:rotfl2: I laughed out loud. Who knows why. But now everyone in the room thinks I'm nuts for laughing at the computer. :laughing:

I can't wait to hear all about it through your point of view. I hope it was everything your dreamed about and more...(and I hope you are already trying to figure out when you can go again...)

Ohhh I so am already trying to figure out my next trip. I was talking about a second trip before we even lefted! :rotfl: And so was Pat! :woohoo: I guess you're meant for each other when you're satisfied with only vacationing to Disney World :laughing:

Subbing! Read your PTR and can't wait to read this one!

:goodvibes I cant wait to get started!

Yay! Exciting new story!

For some reason I know a lot of adults who say they're never going to fly because they never have before. They're too scared. So congrats on picking up the courage! Cant wait to hear about all the magic that ensued.

I'm not going to lie...the flight on the way down and my first time on a plane was miserable. Dramamine is forever a must for flying from now on. But thanks! :goodvibes

Hi Stephanie. This was my first trip too and we were there from 12/15 - 12/22 and stayed at POFQ. I looked for you but did not see you. I think i saw you at tusker breakfast. I recognized your beautiful bag but i was afraid to go up to you can't wait to hear about your trip!

OHHHHHHHHH YOU SAW ME AND DIDNT SAY HELLO! YOU SHOULD HAVE SAID HELLO! My bf and I were hoping to meet a fellow Diser! We're super friendly people, I swear! :laughing:

I'm in! We were there at almost the same time (you were there before and after us). Can't wait to hear your experience.

Cant wait to see if we were at the same place at any time!

Yayayay! So excited for this TR! Also you and your BF are awesome and this is part of the reason I'm so excited for your TR! Ahhh seriously though. :)

:rotfl: We like to think we're awesome every now and then! (Doesnt everyone :confused3 ) I'm super excited to write this TR! :woohoo: I hope it lives up to the expectations!

I'm in. I will be checking the pictures for one of us in the background. But while we wait here are two of my pictures from our trip, just to tide you over.

I have both of the same photo! :goodvibes How funny would that be if you were in one of my photos!

Subscribing! Followed your PTR and can't wait to read about your first trip to WDW. We have a family trip coming up in March and everyone but us are first timers so it will be interesting to see what you got excited about and make some notes for our trip.

Oh I'm so jealous of your upcoming trip! I cannot wait to go back!

Oh no! I made it to page two? How can this be?!

Well, at least I'm here, right?

Totally can't wait for more!!!!

Better late than never! :laughing: At least you're here!

YES! I'm in!!

:goodvibes :thumbsup2

Yay you started! I'm pretty sure I saw you guys.. Sunday night? coming off the bus. We'd stopped in for beignets before heading to Riverside so I was halfway through, covered with powdered sugar, and a general mess or I would've said something!

I wish Tony's was still open for breakfast; I've only been there once with my grandparents years ago but I remember the breakfast being amazing (but to an eight-year-old, anywhere with Mickey Mouse pancakes and a Lady and the Tramp statue is amazing ).

OOOOOOOOHHHHHH WHYYYYY DIDNT YOU SAY HELLO! We were SOO hoping we would meet someone from the Disboards! :laughing: And I'm not joking! We talked about it so often! :rotfl:

Thanks for saying hi! Feel free to join in more often! The more the merrier! :goodvibes

I'm subbing in! I can't wait to hear about your trip!

:welcome: Thanks! I cant wait to write about it! :goodvibes
 
Just finished reading you PTR. Really looking forward to reading your TR. I can also relate to your comment about "being old". I have referred to Dh and myself as an old married couple since we got together. I'm 24 but enjoy reading and crafts more than anything. I hope to learn to crochet,knit and quilt soon!:thumbsup2
 

I'm in! Can't wait to hear the mini-planner review and see your pics (the good, the bad, and the ugly :lmao: )!!!

I'm about to go post the first installment of my TR . . . and for whatever reason I'm super nervous :rotfl2::confused3:rolleyes1 - but really I feel like :scared1:
 
OHHHHHHHHH YOU SAW ME AND DIDNT SAY HELLO! YOU SHOULD HAVE SAID HELLO! My bf and I were hoping to meet a fellow Diser! We're super friendly people, I swear! :laughing:

I was going to! But I was super tired and was just looking at people getting off the bus and was like 'hmm... that's a nice bag.. it looks familiar..' and I was just kind of wandering out in front of French Quarter staring at people and felt like such a creeper! And my boyfriend was kind of rushing us along so he could eat his beignets back in the room while they were still warm. :laughing:

But I felt like I saw a lot of people I recognized vaguely from PTRs, but I didn't really talk to anyone? idk, it feels kind of like intruding on people's vacations? I am just really bad at social interactions (and absolutely killer at Where's Waldo, I'm good at picking people out in a crowd)!!
 
I would love to see a bigger one of the Dwarves... I love that you got to meet and have a picture with all 7 of them!!! Are they only out at Christmas???

D~

I'm in! Great start :thumbsup2 I love trip reports by first timers. It will be interesting to hear what you guys thought of everything. Was it your BF's first time as well?

YES! I have those same aspirations! :laughing: I'm currently learning to crochet. (It's harder than it looks....for me anyway) I enjoy being an old soul! :rotfl:

I'll have to go check it out! I'm nervous about this whole TR! I'm just hoping I dont screw it up!

:rotfl: Well if it was late at night and we were getting off the bus we were probably practically running to our room. I am a person who thoroughly enjoys sleeping! :laughing: I didnt recognize anyone! :sad2: I would have went up to them running, arms flailing, and begging to take a photo of TR sake :rotfl2:

You have inspired me to share my favorite photo from the trip, with my favorite guys! BUT I cant. Must save it for TR post....but I'll share the one we got right before them!

OMG!!! I love this picture too! Just wait until you see what I post in my PTR today - you are going to love it! :lovestruc

I am working on a Christmas trip to WDW... If I can talk all my sewing (and non-sewing) Dis friends into a trip next year... I don't mind sharing a room with people I've never met, if it gets me to WDW. :rotfl2:

oooh! I'm in for that trip! Well, if I can raise the $$$ that is :)


I think that's a fabulous picture! I can't wait to hear about your interaction with Jessie at that picture spot - she was a little nutso when we met up with her and Woody there :rotfl2:

:rotfl2: is it just me or does it kind of feel like you've known some of the Dis people for ages? I swear it was like I was looking for long lost friends while at Disney world! :laughing:

Your purse is too cute.

THANKS! :goodvibes I absolutely love it!!! :lovestruc

The line was super long and she actually left right after our photo....she didnt really interact with me much. Woody was hugging and "kissing" me though....such a flirt. :rotfl2: And you know who else is a big flirt (or flirts) THE CHIPMUNKS! Oh my word, kisses galore! :rotfl:
 
I'm in. Can't wait to see how your first trip went. Ours is coming right up and I need all the help I can get :)
 
Based on that photo of you two with Woody and Jessie, I AM SO EXCITED FOR YOUR TR TO START! Totally an adorable picture. I'm hoping that I might be able to convince Matt to wear matching shirts similar to the ones you are wearing. Such a cute idea. :goodvibes

Also, that bag is soooo stinkin' cute. I saw it in your PTR but it's even cuter when you're wearing it around the park! :lovestruc

Haha, us too, which is why we got beignets, so I would stay awake long enough to finish up all of the nighttime routine! We really liked what we saw of French Quarter, did you like it? We walked down (and drove) and loved all the street signs/'row houses'/cobblestones. Too cute!

Cute pic! I don't think we saw Toy Story characters anywhere, but we didn't look that hard. Was it at the Christmas party?

Loved French Quarter. Super cute! We saw them at the Christmas party but then when we were in HS we saw them in the building across from Toy Story Mania, but it was Buzz and Woody. And we did see Woody and Jesse again somewhere...but I forget. :confused3 I just remember saying "oh we already have a pic with them!"
 
I'm in. Can't wait to see how your first trip went. Ours is coming right up and I need all the help I can get :)

:welcome: How exciting on an upcoming trip! I cannot wait to go again!

YES! I loved the matching shirts! I didnt get to make any of the ones I wanted to before our trip...I LOVED HAVING MATCHING SHIRTS! :rotfl: We got compliments on them too! :thumbsup2 And THANK YOU! I love my bag! :goodvibes
 
:rotfl2: is it just me or does it kind of feel like you've known some of the Dis people for ages? I swear it was like I was looking for long lost friends while at Disney world! :laughing:

:lmao: Yes - it totally feels like I've known some of these people for a lifetime! I felt the same way (and I think my DH thought I was just a little nuts, but no more so than usual I guess, since I run into people everywhere I go according to him and my bestie) . . . I found two Disboutiquers by recognizing one of their daughters and I looked for lots of others :) Heck, look at D~ & I - we met on the Dis, we met IRL when she came to my hotel and took me to Target when I volunteered to skip my flight because I was at the Minneapolis airport and knew I could probably deliver a pattern to her in person if I did . . . now we text or call or email regularly! :hug:

Jessie was chasing Woody and causing all kinds of trouble (and holding up the line) when we saw them. They had to take them "away" and come back five minutes later to calm her down :rolleyes1 I did think it was a little crazy how they were tucked back there by the bathrooms at Splash Mountain. . . we never would have seen them back there if DH hadn't ridden SM solo!!!
