I know I didn't get mine on sale because my husband almost killed me when he saw the price tag (AFTER I PURCHASED IT ).

 

[Deesknee]

Lol. (My) Mark got more compliments in that shirt! As far as the cost... I have no idea K bought it for him while we were on vaca! He lived it. I had to wash it for him 2x while we were there so he could keep wearing it.

 

[Luvchefmic]

well I really got a value on that shirt since Fred
ahem..outgrew it..I wear it all the time usually at
Blizzard Beach over suit Look at pattern you can guess
which is the cutest part to me That shirt just says
Disney to me & the soft colors seem to flatter everyone

It's true. It is flattering. I have been known to buy myself mens shirts from Disney. I find it is very difficult to find Disney woman button down shirts. So, why not? Anyway, I wish I had gotten one of these. I love the fabric.

thanks Moe. Yeah, we will be doing 1900 PF again. Lady T & Drizzella were both so incredible!
About feeling better... it is what it is. good moments and bad. I live life around it. Thanks.



So, after we had our picture taken we walked over to ride Journey. But, it was already closed. Miss M. was sad. So, we thought maybe we would try...
http://images2.snapfish.com/232323232fp543:3>nu=32:4>253>359>WSNRCG=3945629::832;nu0mrj

but...Nemo had left the building....closed.

I had really not planned well this time. So, we headed back over to World Showcase. That's when we decided to wander in and do this...
http://images2.snapfish.com/2323232...63=ot>2395=344=44:=XROQDF>2:36538;9<23:ot1lsi

It was a great meet & greet! so awesome. We weren't sure at first, the cm seemed a little cranky at first. I was in the chair at this point, so I wasn't planning on being in the pictures, as I hate pictures when I am sitting in the chair. So, we just let Miss M enjoy the spotlight...

http://images3a.snapfish.com/232323232fp73482>nu=32:4>253>359>WSNRCG=394894669332;nu0mrj

BUT, Pluto would have none of that. He kept trying to get the family in the photo.
http://images2.snapfish.com/232323232fp5435:>nu=32:4>253>359>WSNRCG=394894;6<532;nu0mrj
So reluctantly I got out of the chair. This is when the CM began to shone. I move slowly at times getting in & out, the CM was so patient & helpful. I truly appreciated it.

For a child that had very little interest in the character interaction this trip...

http://images2.snapfish.com/232323232fp54384>nu=32:4>253>359>WSNRCG=394894669532;nu0mrj

http://images2.snapfish.com/232323232fp543;7>nu=32:4>253>359>WSNRCG=39489466:332;nu0mrj

Then one of the cm's asked us to wait. And this is the reward we got for waiting....


http://images2.snapfish.com/232323232fp543;7>nu=32:4>253>359>WSNRCG=39489466:332;nu0mrj

As the cm's put it.... " A family photo"! We were all so happy!

Pluto even helped me back to my chair. What a dog!

http://images2.snapfish.com/2323232...59=ot>2395=344=44:=XROQDF>2:3985579623:ot1lsi

That's all the update for now. I'll be back.

 

[KatMark]

Well, as disappointing as Figment and Nemo being closed, those pictures with Mickey, Minnie and Pluto certainly made up for it. Awesome photos!

The rides being closed was not a big deal. I had just not realized how late it was. The character mojo was WAAAYYY better than riding the rides.


Turns out we were the last family. One family had gone ahead of us, as I was getting out of the wheelchair slowly, so it was just us. When we came out we saw THIS!

http://images2.snapfish.com/232323232fp543<4>nu=32:4>253>359>WSNRCG=394565494732;nu0mrj

Even though we didnt' get to see entire Illuminations, it was fun to see it from this angle!

We walked through the countries, through the international gateway & back to BWV.

It had been a long day & we were tired. So, we hung out on the balcony for a little while.

Trying to catch up...

I loved the Lady Tremaine photo! It sounds like you had some great character reactions though. LOL What a bummer about the autograph book. We really enjoyed 1900 PF - but we were really surprised that the food was Asian??? Was your food Asian? The food was good - it just didn't seem to fit the theme.

Hopefully I can catch up more this weekend.

D~

Yes, it definitely had a polynesian flare. We did find a mix of american foods also. But, one entire "bay" was asian/polynesian food.

these are really cute pictures!!!

Thanks.

DS mentioned whiile we were there that he didn't like "Chinese style food". Then we pointed out the other bays to him. He still wasn't thrilled, but found some stuff he enjoyed.

weird most of the food at my dinner was american roast beef, the famous strawberry soup, vegetables I don't get it since both your family & D ate there before me maybe it was a test menu like Magic Bands ?? BUT it was all delicious regardless if I ate anymore they would have had to roll me out the door

 

[Deesknee]

OKAY! YES i AM YELLING!!! i JUST SPENT 45MINS DOING AN UPDATE & IT IS SAYING i OPENED A NEW SESSION SO IT CAN'T BE POSTED!!!!!!!! 45 MINUTES!!!! one entire day!!! argh

Now I have to get Miss M from school, so I can't do it again. I am so frustrated.

EDITED TO ADD.... it actually was about 1 hr. 20 mins. but I did keep taking breaks, so I actually was 'writing" for about 45 mins!





1900 Park Fare - Ruthie, we also had the strawberry soup. It was different. and I did enjoy it, but only in a small amount. We had plenty of American fare once we found it, but like I said it was at another bay. Not sure why they seemed to be forefronting the polynesian style food.

Sorry this happened I think this has been an all around crazy day...there must be something in the air I came home to a house with the electric power OFF thank God the temp is in the 70's so it wasn't an oven in here with the dogs

Stupid electric company shut off my service instead of a neighbors and then tried to " assist me" by saying they would have it on between now ( 9:30) and 5:30 WHAT !!!! ashamed to say my behavior and language will warrant alot of praying but the power was back on in 15 minutes Whew !!

Now I hear this that you experienced, I am not going to tempt fate with any updates until later much later I would go ballistic if I spent all that time like you did for nothing ...tomorrow is another day

oh.... potty mouth? Unfortunately, sometimes that is what it takes, that type of anger. Glad it is back on for you now.

I am going to try to update again.

I started by saying I have been trying to keep up with others TR's, but really feel I have to finish mine, so I am going to end up behind in others & will catch up later, or as I have time will read but may not comment on others.

I will be TRYING to catch up a little on my TR in a little while.

 

[Deesknee]

Okay, here I go again. This will basically be the facts, just the facts ma'am. (for those of you old enough to understand that reference). You will all have to believe me when I tell you my previous update that I lost was very witty.

Last update that went through I left you all as my family relaxed on the balcony after a dinner at 1900 PF and a stroll through Epcot with some awesome character mojo.

When we awoke in the morning we were greeted with something like this... Miss M. had hit her wall. She went from to All the excitement, and late nights had finally gotten to her & she had a full fledge melt down. Yelling, crying, stomping foot melt down. She was angry her sister was & E were getting so much attention for getting engaged. She was angry they were getting married, she hated that her other brother wasn't there, and that E & DS2 weren't in the same room with us , and she hated that she had to sleep on the sleep sofa & share a room with her sister. WELL, now that she got that off her chest. I calmly told her.... yeah, no I calmly said NOTHING. Then I yelled, then I calmly explained that in TWO YEARS when her sister gets married we will worry about her missing her, and what she will do with NOT having to share a room with her sis. I continued with the FACT that we all went through a lot to make this vacation surprise wonderful for her, BUT that it is NOT ALL about her. Thankfully, she came to her senses fairly quickly. And we were off to go to "stupid" (her words)...

http://images2.snapfish.com/2323232...7:=wp>2395=344=44:=XROQDF>2:3985579823:wp1lsi

we had planned on getting here at rope drop, but due to the extenuating circumstances.... we didn't. Then we were hurrying in order to get our FP for TSM when I realized I had left the camera in the car. So, my loving DH ran & got it for me. Which I ended up being very thankful for.

So, as we entered DS ran to try to get FP's for TSM. The rest of us, just wandered up toward THE hat. We were a bit sad when DS returned with FP's for 6:15. 6:15! We had other plans tonight, so we didn't know if we would get the opportunity to use them, but we would try. I love TSM, I usually have to recover a bit after, but, I so so enjoy it.
Okay, it was still fairly early so the older kids headed to ToT & RnR. DH, Miss M., and I headed to...
visit my SIL

http://images3a.snapfish.com/232323232fp73482>nu=32:4>253>359>WSNRCG=394569538432;nu0mrj

Only kidding, I actually love my brothers wife. And most of DH's sisters.

It was The Great Movie Ride! We all love this ride. This time was no exception. Even a better treat because we got the 1st car AND the front row. Right with the director! This cm was wonderful. One of the best we have had in a long time. I was so excited to be in the front. Great picture taking ops, but I was a bit slack in this area. Sorry. We had the western scene which is very unusual for us. A matter of fact we had begun to wonder if they had done away with it. But, low & behold they still had it & we were there in the middle of the action!

I got a little ahead of myself. As the three of us were walking up to the GMR building guess who we saw...
http://images2.snapfish.com/232323232fp543:5>nu=32:4>253>359>WSNRCG=394569538532;nu0mrj

I was so excited. When the triplets were little we searched & searched for Daisy and never found her then. Since then we have seen her but NEVER with Donald! Never! I was so excited. Then Miss M. burst my bubble... "maybe later Mom". HUH??!!!! BUT, it's Donald AND Daisy....TOGETHER. Do you understand? TO-GETH-ER!! hmmm. Well, I must be honest I had NO desire to go back to that child I had seen in the a.m. So, we went past DD & DD and went on the ride. So, when we came out, I looked immediately for them. NOPE Chip & Dale. Who, btw are one of my favorite duos, but not by any means hard to find. So, we headed off to enjoy other areas of the park. Well, with The Muppets being closed, no need to head to that area. So, what to do next... Still no older kids back from the thrill rides yet. hmm.... DD says how about....you know the one I love with the funny lizard from Mulan. NO NOT A LIZARD! So, we headed to ...

http://images2.snapfish.com/2323232...:7=ot>2395=344=44:=XROQDF>2:36594;8923:ot1lsi

I can't remember why, but we skipped the drawing lesson this time. I love that too, wonder why we skipped it. hmmm... Oh well, we headed over to see what characters were in there today. Not that my anti-autograph DD would want to see them. But, we'd check it out. Knowing she wouldn't want to, I mean if she didn't want to see my favorite feathered friends WHO would she want to see. But, off we went anyway. Past Sorcerer Mickey, barely a glance, and then, and then we saw them. More specifically SHE saw them... WE saw a 35 minute line... She wanted to get in line. WHAT? a 35 min line we asked. She told us it was okay, she would wait, she would be patient. So, we waited. WHO you might ask would be worth that wait for our sweet (atleast at the moment DD)

I am going to save here & come back. I know such a rascal aren't I?
