That is quite a haul

Yup! The gal knows how to shop!
Catching up on your trip report. Love your photos! They remind me why I really love Star Wars Weekend. We attended the opening day of SWW and wish had known about your tour. We, too, would have gladly spent our nieces and nephews' inheritance on the price of the tour.
I didn't notice the Millennium Falcon when we walked by the Sorcerer's Hat stage. There are so many bits and pieces of extra magic strewn around Disney that are easy to miss, so it feels so neat when someone points one out. I wish I had better powers of observation!
We went to Darth Mall later in the afternoon and it was crowded. We also bought the 2014 SWW t-shirt -- both the standard blue version and the brown Passholder version -- but we didn't know about the Aurasma App until a few days later. We were wearing our t-shirts and a CM told us about them being 'interactive' shirts. Since then, we've shown the t-shirts and the app to all our friends and relatives.
We have already booked BLT for May 2015 so we will be there for the 2015 version of SWW.
So what do the shirts do? I guess I should get them out and try the Aurasma App on my phone. I could at least put away MY stuff from those boxes.
We are skipping SWW next year and going during F&G festival, but we plan on going back in 2016 and we'll stay at the VGF if we can get in. That will be a busy WDW year, some other friends (on this TR) are talking about us all going during F&W too!
I love that lamp!!! Fran found some awesome stuff. That Wookie family portrait is cracking me up!

I know, I can't wait for them to get stuff on the house done, so we can start putting some of this stuff out. Right now we're still living in a construction zone, so nothing out of the boxes yet. I'm so glad that I found the Wookie Family Portrait online, I couldn't figure out where in the house I would put it. Now that it's in my TR I can come back and enjoy it whenever I want.
That's some serious shopping. Glad that the package worked out for you and Fran where the shopping was concerned. I think I would have been sitting it out with you once the mobs came in....and I love star wars stuff!!!
What a great outcome to have such a small group in your package. That would be fantastic!
That dress is great. Love that picture of you in it.
I love the picture of the hairless cat with it's wookie family.
There's even more to come, which made it completely worth it. Thanks! I really like the dress too! The cat is my favorite part of that picture, but there's a lot more funny going on in there too.
Did you buy most of that to sell? Its quite the haul.
I never know what her purposes of buying stuff are. All I know is that it fills some sort of need from childhood! Me, I bought the stuff to wear or display.
Very nice merchandise from the shopping experience during Star Wars Weekend.
Thanks!
Note to self, find Darth Mall next time!
You really must! There was a lot there you couldn't get elsewhere.
Thanks for posting the contents! Love the Darth cushion I didn't see that! Too crowded
lol re Wookie picture! So do you sell the items you don't want?
I didn't see it either, but Fran did. I'm going to put a picture of us in that frame. In theory, yes we sell the stuff we don't want. In practice, we put them in a box labeled SWW 2014 and get another storage locker to put them in with all the other stuff "we're going to sell on eBay."
Love everything, especially the lamp and the pillow. You guys don't like Vinylmation? Will you be trying to sell those? I'm not a fan of them either. But if I ever see a really cool one that I couldn't live without, I would probably get it.
That lamp is definitely coming out of the box. Supposedly while we're gone they plan on finishing all the stuff that is keeping us from putting stuff out. You will arrive shortly after we do so the place will still be somewhat of a disaster and nothing will be put out yet.
I don't "get" the Vinylmations and really wondered why she was buying them. She says that she will sell them. I guess until we get somewhat settled down, nothing is going to happen.
