Great updates! Kira looks so cute dressed up and it looks like she had a great night! And I bet those beautiful red lips were from that sucker!
Actually she was born with those beautiful red lips
She always has them! 
These photos were taken about 25 minutes after she was born
.
Yeah, I guess I should have double checked the meet time before we left.
I remember voting on it and for some reason I thought the votes went to 7pm but I guess not. It would have been nice to see you guys

Thanks! Kira loved hers!!!
Hmmm I heard a rumour that this blizzard we've had for a week has buried all of Okotoks and she has been trapped there ever since.

Glad you liked it

The pineapple ice cream was normal colour, it was the vanilla that they turned green for Halloween.
Wow, green would have been cool
Lucky man!
Nah, it looked grody!
I'm glad we always get the pineapple stuff! 
I waiting a long time at the booth, a lot of people were not impressed with the vanilla!

Day 18 Part 1
November 1st - Breakfast at Kona and Flying Home
Although we were all happy to be going home, sitting here writing this, I feel a little sad that it's all over. Although it was a tough trip, it's hard thinking about our final day in Disney knowing that we won't be back for quite some time.
We slept in until 10 am but because this morning at 2 AM was the time change (end of Daylight Savings) it was actually only 9am. This gave me extra time to organize and do our final packing job. I barely fit everything into our suitcases!
Kira was full of P & V when she woke up this morning. She was completely full of sass and attitude and I don't think it ended until we got home.
I had called Disney Dining and made a ressie for all of us at Kona Cafe for 11 am and had cancelled our breakfast at Chef Mickeys. There was no way I was going back there again
We packed up, bid a sad farewell to BLT and drove over to the Polynesian. We got there early so we just wandered around a little bit.
Kira was really into doing the pressed pennies with her Dad this trip
After meeting up with S & B, B & G, we were seated for breakkie. Once again, we were right next to the lobby area...oh well whatever.
We all ordered the Big Kahuna and they ordered 2 pressed pots of coffee to share.
This time I got scrambled eggs and they forgot to put the pineapple macadamia nut butter on the side. I don't often order scrambled eggs at a sit down restaurant because I never know how the eggs will come out. I only like them when they are moist. Not runny, but not dry.
Well, they were AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! Everything was absolutely delicious once again and I was so glad we decided to eat here again!
Kira was acting up quite a bit. Once she finished eating, she was either climbing the railings or was under the table.
She was almost uncontrollable. Whatever we threatened her with, she really didn't care and just did whatever she wanted. And she was like that ALL day
After breakfast we stopped for a quick bathroom break before leaving the resort.
I was a little confused here, do I flush or do I wait for it to flush by itself?
We got to the parking lot and said good-bye to our awesome travel mates for the past 2 weeks. They really made this trip fun for us and I am glad we got to be with them while they experienced their first cruise.
They made us laugh a lot and we made them feel super glad that they didn't have any toddler's of their own
.
Sassy even on the way to the airport....yes...those are her socks on her hands!
We dropped off the van at Avis and grabbed a cart for all our crap.
Checked in with United, got charged an arm and a leg for 4 suitcases and made our way through security to our gate.
Tried to keep Kira occupied until our flight left. It was a difficult task considering just how much energy she had that morning!
Ever feel like a jungle gym??? Well, we both did that morning!
Yay! Finally time to board!!!!
About an hour and a half into the flight, the BEST thing ever happened........
..
She fell asleep!!!!
It was only for an hour but it was a wonderful, blissful, peaceful, (and many other words that end in "ful") hour!!!
We had a 1.5 hour layover in Denver so once again we made a stop at Wolfgang Puck's for lunch.
It was very delicious and it filled us up. We grabbed some snacks and reading material from a news store and then made our way to our final gate.
The flight back to Calgary was much harder than the flight to Denver. Kira was tired but refused to sleep, she didn't want to be in the buckle anymore and for the first time, she had a bowel movement on the plane, which really sucked because there were no change tables in any of the lavatories.
The flight attendant was nice and made some room for Rob to change her on the floor near the back of the plane. He had to do this twice, so it was kind of awkward and inconvenient but what can you do?
She filled her diaper again just before we landed so we just changed that last diaper in our seats. I'm pretty good at changing her in weird and challenging places so it was quick and convenient! I also changed her into warmer clothes, more suitable for Calgary weather.
Rob's dad picked us up at the airport and drove us home. As we were on our way home, we realized that we didn't have a key to our house. I thought Rob had one on his key chain but I was wrong. I had to call my brother, who still had our car keys from when he drove us to the airport, and thankfully he came and met us at the house.
We put Kira right to bed and then dragged our stuff in and I unpacked the necessary items and then we CRASHED!!!!!!!!!!!
We were all so happy to be home and our dogs were ridiculously happy to see us!
THE END
I will do a Final Thoughts Post when I am feeling better and then I will also write a brief dining report with all my food pics
Just want to say thanks to all of you who joined us on this crazy and wonderful journey. I appreciate your comments and views and sticking with us through the good times and the bad!

Wow... I can't believe it is already OVER!!! I gotta say Kira looked so cute with the face painting. I know it was a tough trip but you'll have some great memories. They grow up face. It seems like yesterday when I was pregnant with my 12 year old. I can't believe she'll be a teenager next year.
I'll look forward to your final thoughts & dining report! Hope you feel better soon...

Thanks for reading Karen! Are you doing a trippie too?????
I've loved it Cass. Kira looked so cute with her face painted.
Nope, no trippie from me this time. No time or energy!Have you another cruise planned? Did you rebook onboard? - I dont want to miss your next trippie! We have a dummy date for 2011, but it might be 2012 before we save enough for the Dream.
Merry Christmas Cass, give Kira a big kiss for me.

I am so sad it is over! But I will be onboard for your food report!
I loved your TR and loved seeing all the pictures of Kira, since she and my daughter are close in age. You have a beautiful family! Thanks for sharing with us!

It can't be over!!!!! 
Thanks a million for taking us all on the journey with you. I particularly appreciate the honesty too. Disney is magical, but even a trip to Disney can't be perfect! Do you know when you'll be going to Disney again? I think you mentioned it won't be for a while? The good thing about that (yes, there's positives in everything ), is that it will be a brand new trip for Kira.
Thank goodness we have some final thoughts and a dining report to look forward to or I'd have to.........*gasp*.........work! I hope you feel better soon, and have a healthy and happy Christmas season!!!

I'm so sad that it's over! I think I'm going to have Cass, Kira and Rob withdrawls! You are going to start another Pre-TR soon, right??
Seriously, thanks so much for sharing your trip with us. I have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. I can't wait to read your final thoughts and dining reviews.
And lastly, I hope you feel better soon!

I'm so sad your TR is over--I have really loved reading them over the years!! Your view at BLT was GREAT! I can't wait to stay there one day.
We just got back from a weekend trip to WDW- when I went to get my Pineapple Float my husband got a Coke Float and they had RED vanilla ice cream for the holidays!! I thought that was fun, but I don't know how I would feel about green!!
Can't wait for your dining reviews!

Thanks for sharing Cass. You made me laugh, you made me cry, but most of all you made me thank God that my kids are older. I am however schooled now in what to do when/if I ever have grandkids and take them to Disney.
You're an awesome mommy! I hope you, Rob, and Miss Kira have a magical Christmas.
