Originally Posted By Labuda Actually, I don't think it was him. He has seven and the oldest is nearly a teenager.
Originally Posted By demderedoseguys ^^ Labuda,no disrespect intended, but two things... when you get to be my age even teenagers could look young- not 6 as I posted, but maybe 8 or 9 if they are tiny like my niece ...and with all those kids in tow, perhaps I miscounted. Either way, I find it odd that DVC dad didn't at least respond to this since he is a regular here. Until he posts on this thread, I will continue to assume that it was he that I saw and that the lucky dog is still at WDW. I know he has tons of DVC points.

Originally Posted By DVC_dad Well.... I rushed over here as soon as I heard vbdad's red phone page! Thanks vbdad! Demderedoseguys, It was NOT me. Sorry. I wish it were but no. Labuda has it right. My 13 year old boy almost looks me eye to eye, wears a size 11 shoe (I wear a 9) and weighs 201 lbs, very little of which is boyish fat. We are 7 kids and 2 parents. We are not going back down until the first week of November this year. We will go back down the first of week of March '09. We are always 7 kids, and we never leave anyone, not even the baby behind. The best tell tale sign we carry with us is I am one of the few dad's wearing the old traditional mouse ears. I never leave home (if I am headed to Disney) without them. Of course there are times that I don't have them on, but they are more often on than off. Also we have 1 girl, and 6 boys. That isn't that common. The girl is one of the older kids, so it's easy to tell. Thanks for thinking of us fellow DVC'ers, but as much as I WISH I WERE at WDW right now, I am not. I have been away becuase I am helping with some of the planning with the upcoming DragonCon that we hold in Atlanta every year. Please see... <a href="http://www.dragoncon.org" target="_blank">http://www.dragoncon.org</a> <<<Dragon*Con is the largest multi-media, popular culture convention focusing on science fiction and fantasy, gaming, comics, literature, art, music, and film in the US. Dragon*Con 2008 will be held Labor Day weekend (August 29 - September 1, 2008) in Atlanta, GA.>>> With giving what very little "spare" time I have to this, I have had ZERO time to be online and I so regret it. I love you all very much and Dragon Con will be over soon, and school is starting and then I will be back on LP where I long to be. Thanks for missing me!!! Special thanks to OfficerMinnie for helping me "hear" the Red Phone ringing!!!

Doesn't look like I'll make my annual fall trip this year, but you never know. BTW,Good thing I didn't start yelling out "Hey, DVC dad" across the room-nobody would have answered and I would have been totally embarrassed.

DVC_dad, good to see that your still around.Have fun with the dragoncon.

Saying "are you DVC Dad?" sounds a little weird ...
