That's too bad about Pam. I looked forward to seeing her this year. I wish her luck in her fundraising, though. :)

Yippee!!! I can't wait either.:D Now I've got to start working on the surprise for everyone.;)
KELLY KOUNTDOWN....
Less than 20 days!!!!!
Disneyland Plans (Monday, July 26th):
*Park opens at 8:00...Tonya and I are ready to go NOW, so we'll have to be there at 8:00 AM, at least. ;)
*Blue Bayou is where we'll be going for lunch or dinner. I'll call for reservations. :D Yippee! Even David and I haven't been there yet!
*David and I will drive...we have room for one more (me, David, Slick & Tonya already the first four) in our car..if anyone else wants to go, please do. :D
*EDIT: It closes at Midnight! Are we (those attending) up for that? ....you can always sleep on the airplane home ;) ...
WOOHOO!!! I can't wait!!!!
:D :D :D YIPEE!!!! Count me in for Monday however I'm not sure if I'll be up to staying until midnight but you never know. Once I get there I might get so caught up in the spirit that I won't want to leave. Do you have to buy tickets in advance or can I purchase when we get there.
EEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKK!!!!!
You can buy them in advance or at the gate. I think Kelly and I just decided to get 'em at the gate; it shouldn't be too long of a wait if we get there a little before opening. :)Quote:

If you get tired, no worries. We can take you back to your hotel any time. :)Quote:

Are you kidding? If you have money in your hand - TRUST ME - there are tons of booths with people just waiting to take your money.Quote:

I am not sure of the current admission fee, but I think it is close to $50.00 per person. I hope everyone is aware that Mickey Mouse has a LAVISH lifestyle that must be maintained!! And Minnie 'aint' cheap either.
I just talked to Kelly this evening and here is the menu!
BBQ CHICKEN by Chefs Aaron and David
BAKED BEANS
POTATO SALAD
FRUIT KABOBS - A LA KELLY!
DAVID'S SPECIAL TARTS! WITH APOLOGIES - KELLY'S TARTS!!!!
NOT DAVID'S
DAVID'S SPECIAL SALSA
Chips
Veggies
Etc.
TO DRINK..............well, it wouldn't be safe to post all of that here!
A good portion of the Thursday's crowd will be here and this will not be a cyber bar (just kidding).
SLUSHIES
DIET COKE
PEPSI
What didn't we cover? Any requests? We are a very agreeable group and want everyone to be happy.
Even though he's an aspiring pastry chef, I'm the tart maker in the family. ;)Quote:

I was planning on making one or more of the following depending on people's tastes:
Smoked oyster roll (basically, smoked oysters/cream cheese jelly roll style and covered with chopped fresh parsley
Layered shrimp appy; bottom layer is cream cheese, topped with cocktail sauce, topped with fresh shrimp, topped with chopped tomatoes, chopped green onion, and shredded Mozza cheese.
Hot crab dip. Everyone knows what this is and NO, I'm the crab that's being dipped :rolleyes:
It's just after 5am here and I can't sleep. I dreamt that we were all sitting in in the back of Gini's place waiting for Richard to make his grand entrance with Slushies. There was even a band playing.:D
I typically need to eat blandly, but I know David's vote would be this one. :)Quote:

Kelly Kountdown: 18 days!!!!
Gosh, have I missed a few posts, or what??! :o
I'm really looking forward to this BBQ! I wish I could stay a few extra days, but just starting in my new job, I thought it best not to take days off yet, so I'll be there Friday-Sunday. At least the reason is because I finally have a job! Yay! :)
Gini, you know what beverage I like! LOL :D Any requests for wine this year?
Slick, I can't wait to meet you and that crab dip and layered shrimp appy sound fabulous! (I love seafood)
Does anyone like artichoke dip with sourdough bread?? I made a pretty mean artichoke(cheese) dip! Yum! I'm sure the the little tart...uh...I mean Kelly, and I could whip it up before we get to Gini's! :p LOL LOL JK Kelly, you know I love you! :) **hugs**
Did we want any burgers, hotdogs, salmon for the grill also?
Yay! Can't wait!!!
**hugs**
Karen
Tonya just reminded me I was going to make some lemonade for any non-alcohol drinkers or anyone that may just want a break. (Also good mixed into a slushie ;) ) I'm sure picking some lemons up on the way from the airport won't be a problem. What with the cat/dog treats, bale of hay, mini-Kahlua bottles, sleeping bag and all - I think I'll wait until I get off the plane ;)

Seems to me I read a story somewhere on the 'net that told
about the poor folks who bought "Bootleg" partially-USED
Disney tickets - that did NOT "work" when presented at the gate!
Here's a link to a Disney Information site >>>
http://www.mousesavers.com/
NOTE: this site is *NOT* run by Disney!
One tip the site gives is to
PLAN your Disney trip *BEFORE* you arrive at the Park ~
many folks waste valuable hours *wandering around* the vast Park.
They suggest that you research WHAT you want to do and learn
WHERE the attractions are - IN ADVANCE!
Have a lot of **PHUNN** at Disneyland!! :D
(Well, Tonya didn't mention the limon bicardi she hopes to bring.... )Quote:

Tonya and Slick are in serious luck! David and I are Disneyland Freaks/Experts. We've had annual passes for the past 3 or 4 years and have grown up going many, many times a year. We know all the tricks and places to see. :)Quote:

Kelly: I'm into EVERYTHING Disney but especially the Lion King and 101 Dalmations :) :)
And I want to buy a Disney watch for myself, a gift for each of my two neices and something for my Mom.
I'm so excited I can hardly think of anything else.:D :D :D
Note to self: To Do list: whiten teeth, get new glasses, get haircut, shave...... :rolleyes:

Cool! There is a gigantic Disney store called "World of Disney" right outside the park. Its huge...I don't think I've ever seen a larger store...well, maybe Target or Costco...but not by much! ;) They'll have EVERYTHING you'll need and more.Quote:

Plus, there are a ton more shops inside the park too.
Tonya, I'm not sure if you're into Roxy stuff at all, but there is a fun store in Adventure land that has a ton of cute Roxy stuff to buy. :)
Kelly Kountdown: 17 days!!!
I just got back from buying my wrapping for my presents to the furries that aren't able to attend. Gotta keep myself busy, I'm like Slick and beginning to not be able to think about much else. ;)
YAY!!!! :D :D :D
Roxy? I'm so there! :D
I'm getting exxxccciiittteeeedddddd!! :D
Has anyone figured out who the other mystery guest is?
Well, yes, as a matter of fact I have :D :D :D :D :DQuote:

I'm partial to wine too Karen, but I prefer a dry white. Once I started drinking Richard's slushies last year however ..... ;) Assuming I can stop at a store on the way I'll be picking up lemons and some plastic cups. ZOUNDS, getting close!!!
Scuse me Mizz Laurie, but I think it is highly possible that both lemons and cups will be available to you when you arrive without making a grocery store run!!!
Karen, Mr. Bailey will be here.
I, like Mizz Laurie, like a dry chardonnay.
I need to get everyone's arrival time again. I will p/m you.
Kelly Kountdown: 16 days!!!
Slick's countdown - I leave in 14 days!!!!
15 for me! :)
My Mario Clone just tapped me on the shoulder and reminded me that he is rather partial to beer. And cherries, and ... oh nevermind, my guy is verrry flexable!
(memo: add cherries and beer to grocery list!)
You guys are killing me!!!! I am almost wishing for a meeting in Sacramento so I could find a way to come down there too, but it will not happen. :( :( :(
I know you're going to have a marvelous time!!!!! :D
