1st DIS meet

The Date: July 1, 2010
The Cast: My Family, MeMom & BrooklynnsMommy (and gang), Stace208 and her family
The Reason: to meet other DISsers
The Place: Old Key West Resort

Now that I am currently back in the sunny state of Florida and just a few miles away from Disney, I figured it would be a good time to meet up with some friends I made from the DISboards.

While I was reading MeMom and BrooklynnsMommy's (Jill) trip report, I realized that they will be arriving at Disney a few days after I moved back. They were already planning a DISmeet with other DIS friends who would be in the area. After getting the okay from my dad, I talked with MeMom about meeting up also.

So July 1st arrived and I was extremely nervous about my first meet with my DIS friends that I have been talking to for two years. I did not want to say anything silly or want my brother and sister to embarrass me.

I sent Jill a text told her that we were running late because my dad had just got home from work. She informed me that they were running late as well. We made our way through Kissimmee/Disney traffic and got to Old Key West Resort just in time before the skies opened up and dropped buckets of rain.

My dad dropped my sister, brother and I off in front of the gift shop. I called my dad and told him that I'm going to head towards the lobby since we were late. He was fine with that. I walked through the gift shop with butterflies in my stomach with my brother and sister behind me.

Once inside the lobby, I saw MeMom instantly. She was following Bella around the lobby. I said "Hi" but she didn't hear me since I was speaking like a timid mouse. Then, I saw Jill talking with Stace208. I walked up and said "Jill?" Honestly, everything else after that became a blur. I was just so excited to actually be apart of a DISmeet and finally able to meet MeMom, Jill, Brooklynn and Bella. I do remember asking MeMom to throw a coin in the fountain at WL for me that I get hired. (crossing my fingers the magic works on jobs)

Not much else to say except it was a pleasure meeting everyone. Here's some pictures...
