FINALLY!!!!!!!!!

Wooooooo Hoooooooo.....I got my computer fixed and it's back in my lap! And it did not cost me anything but the part and a sweet 'thank you' gift I got for the wonderful man (my mom and dad's neighbor) that helped in fixing my computer!!!

you read my mind - you must have ESPN! i was just about to e-mail you to see how your computer issues were going. glad you got it fixed with so little of a cost!

One thing I remember for this parade.....it was HOT!!!!

BURNING HOT!! We were sweating like pigs

by the time it got there and since we were running late to a spot we didn't have to wait long......but it was HOT!!!!!

SHE AIN'T KIDDIN!!!!!! it was soooooooo hot that day. the entire trip was like that but that was the worst of it, i think. and considering the parade comes through at pretty much the hottest point of the day - 3:00. it was bad.

We walked across the bridge towards the liberty tree and stopped on the right hand side to watch the parade

i couldn't believe we got decent "seats" (even though we were standing) so late - right before the parade started. there was just enough room for 2 people to squeeze in so we grabbed the spot! i do remember there was a vendor that sold those little frilly umbrellas for the little girls right behind us, but she said it was fine that we stand there.

see my hand in this picture? i'm holding my camera and on the side i've got a wet paper towel. we had been using these the whole trip to constantly lay on the back of our necks to help cool off. we'd walk by a water fountain and soak it and get a new one every time we went to the restroom. well, that day it was so hot they just dried up really quick and didn't really do much good except to wipe the sweat off our faces!

i see alice's knickers!!!!

i love this picture!

What is Wendy doing???

who cares? she's a home wrecker. pay her no mind.

I think Belle likes to hide.....maybe she doesn't like her picture taken

this KILLS me because she's my favorite princess and i can never get a good picture of her. but i did redeem myself in december - you will see!

 

[Philadisney]

I am not a parade person but I love that parade!
And I can't believe it, we had the same problem with Belle last time!!

 

[ArielSRL]

Great update! Looking forward to more.

 

[punkin413]

just bumping. i know it's been awhile since an update, but c'mon guys. i know you're still out there!

 

[Charleston Princess]

Oh, I am still here and enjoying the parade pics!!! It's just been one of those crazy busy weeks that happen every now and then!

 

[hlrababy]

Whoooo hooooooo! An update!!!!!

Okay, I love the pictures!! It makes me want to see the parade! We usually just ride rides during it, but I think we will let Hollie see it this time!


It looks like Wendy is sending the rock on sign??!!??!! Or as Dawn says, the homewrecker!!

I am so glad your computer is fixed!!!!

 

[scottny]

an update. and a great one. Loved all the parade pics.

glad your computer is fixed.

 

[kschafer]

I'm still here too. I'm glad for these pics because it is the only parade I didn't really get to see. we had to wait for our FP for splash mtn right around 3 and by the time we got off, the end of the parade was passing by so I only got a glimpse over the heads of the masses of people that day

 

[winkers]

I'd begun to give up all hope of this tr being finished.

I love the pictures from the parade. I still haven't managed to get to the 3 0'clock parade........I keep trying but I never seem to make it.

 

[VandyFan10]

A parade was a nice way to start my Monday morning. Thanks!

I'm telling you....it's wierd

SHE AIN'T KIDDIN!!!!!! it was soooooooo hot that day.

NOT kidding

And I can't believe it, we had the same problem with Belle last time!!

That's funny.....they almost look the same

Great update! Looking forward to more.

Hopefully sometime this weekend!

You should definitely watch this parade....Hollie would LOVE it!!

an update. and a great one. Loved all the parade pics.

glad your computer is fixed.

Thanks! I'm so happy it's sitting in my lap again. Matt might be also b/c that means I'm not on the desktop

I'm still here too. I'm glad for these pics because it is the only parade I didn't really get to see. we had to wait for our FP for splash mtn right around 3 and by the time we got off, the end of the parade was passing by so I only got a glimpse over the heads of the masses of people that day

That's exactly how I've watched this parade before....over peeps heads or through the 'cracks'.....you should definitely stake out a spot and see it...it's great!

I'd begun to give up all hope of this tr being finished.

I love the pictures from the parade. I still haven't managed to get to the 3 0'clock parade........I keep trying but I never seem to make it.

I was wondering if I was ever going to get back to it too

You should plan it...it's a great parade to watch!!!!

Off to bed boys and girls....but more to come soon....I promise!!!

 

[VandyFan10]

Exciting news There is a strong possibility that I will be going to Disney THIS December!!!!!! I am so excited I can't stand it and I'm hoping that it will end up working out and I get to go!! Will let you know details as they come, but just wanted to let you guys know

Now on with the show!

After the parade we headed over to Toon Town to see the princesses!

I was very excited since I had never been in here before. Basically the only thing I had ever done in Toon Town was Mickey's house.

We took a pic of Dawn's favorite, since she was hiding from us in the parade

We had the CUTEST little girl in front of us in there. Here she is singing to Aurora. Dawn do you remember what song? I can't believe I can't!!

Since Dawn had done this before she said she would take pictures with my camera and I could go meet the girls!

Proof of Dawn taking pics

Aurora asked where our Prince's were. And of course we had to tell her it was a girls trip but we brought them along . She was HILARIOUS and was definitely one of my favorite character interactions. She was very interested in them and thought they were cute too

[VandyFan10]

Then it was Cinderella She was asking about my ring and told me that I must have a very special Prince

Then we told her we did have our Prince's with us. There wasn't much interaction there. I'm thinking she was speechless

Then on to Belle. We just loved watching this little girl. She was SO cute!!

There was not much interaction with Belle either. I would think they might get a little annoyed with 'older' princesses coming through to meet them. But we had so much fun with Aurora and then watching that little girl it was GREAT! Very glad we took a little time to come here. Had the lines been long I might have thought differently

From there we headed to the train station and the boys got to ride on the train.

We were headed to our dinner reservation at the Hoop Dee Doo. It was a lot of fun but for those of you going. Unless you take the boat don't be fooled by thinking you are going to get directly there on the bus from one of the Parks.

Our destination....finally!!

Our waiter Rob....or Bor as he like to be called

He even had pen's to remind us of who he was

He brought us LOTS of this

Sangria....and oh my it was good!!

Maybe that's why I was so excited about the food

Dawn I believe ordered wine first....tried my sangria and then wanted it. Bor was HAPPY to bring it!

[VandyFan10]

All of the YUMMY food!!

These 2 were prob. my favorite....they were HILARIOUS!!

BOR DANCING!!!

He was bringing this wonderful stuff!!

luckily Strawberry Shortcake itsn't my favorite because I was STUFFED!!!!!!!

 

[VandyFan10]

Davy....Davy Crockett, we girls from TN know about him!

They pulled some people out of the crowd to help in the show....they were great!

This guy of course was funny!!

I love the look on this kids face

Then we all got to have some fun!

These guys that sat in front of us were quite funny....they had pitcher after pitcher

of beer brought to them so that probably helped.
But our sangria

could have made it funnier too

See ya'll later....

It really was a great show! I would definitely go back. I told Matt we might be doing that next time we go. But I do think I know how they get the guys there.....fried chicken....ribs...oh, and BEER

!!!

I will let Dawn take over here for a little while and tell you guys what she got to do for the first time ever ......next!!

Next post: Video's

 

[punkin413]

here are the videos from hoop dee doo!!!!! i had uploaded these awhile back and so they're all ready to go!

this will help some of you who are pondering on whether or not you want to go make a decision.

the beginning of the show.....i kinda thought it would be cheesy after this but they proved me wrong.



this was cute. they took state names and made them fit into the song. sorry for the bad filming - i think bor was talking to us at one point and distracted me.



the hokie pokie. this guy was really funny. i actually saw him in the mary poppins part of the christmas parade on ABC and he played tony on tammie's TR when they did the grand gathering at tony's town square.



twirl your napkins!!!!



my darlin clementine.....the big guy keeps saying the wrong word when they say, "clementine." and the brunette chick is hilarious in these. i think she blows her nose into her dress near the end of the second one - something had me cracking up!





the blonde starts laughing in this one and she cracks me up.....she just keeps on laughing and it's just hilarious.



these two CMs are the funniest of the bunch. listen when she asks if we want to hear him sing and we all say yes and then someone says no. and when she does the squwaking like a bird thing....OMG.....so funny! anna and i watched these and she and i were crying at that part. so funny!



i think he accidentally spit in her mouth here.



singing contest, part 1. THAT'S ALL MUSCLE!!!!!! listen for this:

she's at disney world.

so?

i'm makin her dreams come true. one million and one.

i totally thought i was gonna pee all over myself from laughing at that!!!



singing contest part 2. listen for doug tooting!



singing contest part 3. we're marching to georgia......WE'RE THERE!!!! too bad i couldn't help the whistling - i've never been able to. she's so silly here!



bor with our dessert!



the tale of davy crockett. the guy who played the indian was AWESOME. DAVY, DON'T DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



davy's angel......



the finale.....where everyone plays the washboards and you can't hear the music!!!
