WOW is right, isn't it? I had seen the pictures too, but you're right...seeing it in person is just amazing. In fact, the other night, my in-laws were over, so we watched the dvd we recorded of the castle lighting. I started crying....I am such a DisneyNerd!
I got goosebumps when I watched the video that Don took, so I'm a nerd right along with you!
One day I'm going to take off from work during December so I can see the castle with lights with my own eyes!
Definitely looking forward to your DHS installment! I've been reading those and paying attention to them more carefully!
The castle lights just have to be seen, the pictures don't do them justice - it's amazing!
I hope my DHS installment will be somewhat helpful to you, it was a really crowded day that day, so we skipped quite a bit.
Those are gorgeous castle lighting pictures!! How fun that you all got high 5's from a CM. I bet the boys thought it was fun to have a fellow Sooner fan working there!
Sorry about your meal at LTT, how disappointing.
They always love bumping into other Sooner fans, Justin even commented at one point during the week that there sure were a lot of OU fans around!
I was bummed about LTT, the food was fine, but when you have poor service it sure takes away from that.
THOSE were some great great photos!! Amazing! The castle WAS so beautiful I agree! Too bad about LTT... we didn't go -- I am glad we didn't! I do want to try it for lunch one day, but not if it is going to be a slow service.... seems like your MK day was very memorable!
Isn't there a menu @ LTT that you can order from for lunch? I wonder if that would be better. I would hope that the service isn't always that slow, maybe we just caught them on a bad night and had a bad server on top of it
Aside from our dinner, we did have a fabulous day at MK!!
I got goosebumps looking at your pics of the castle--amazing! Someday I will see it!! The pics of your family turned out really cute, too!
The castle is wonderful with the Christmas lights, gave me goosebumps too!
Don't you just love when that happens?
The characters are supposed to be coming back to LTT this year... sorry you had such poor service and that you missed the apple cobbler and ice cream...it's delish!
I absolutely must see the Castle lighting "with my own eyes!" It looks perfectly magical!
Looking forward to the Studios!

I think I read somewhere that the characters are only back on a temporary basis until the remodel of CP is complete, then they are going away again. I hope that's wrong though - LTT was much better when it was a character meal!
Yes, you MUST see the Castle lighting in person - it's wonderful
Hey Fellow Soonergirl,
I'm in Harrah, OK and like you preparing for the crazy weather! I just found your TR and am loving seeing all the Christmas fun. Maybe one day.
We also always wear our Sooner gear and love the reactions we get from CM and other guests as well. We would be in line and off in the distance hear "BOOMER!" and we'd have to answer "SOONER!" People look at you kind of crazy. Anyway I can't wait to read more and stay safe these next couple of days. Hopefully we'll keep power and I can catch up on DIS!

Hi there & welcome!! We aren't too far apart - we live in Moore!
Ugggg, the weather! I'm hoping that Mike Morgan is correct and that the bulk of this is going to stay north & west of where we are. Keeping my fingers crossed and also praying that we don't lose power, we are on well water so if the power goes, so does our water!
We always bump into lots of Sooner fans when we go too, and yes we hear "Boomer" yelled at us as well, and sometimes it's Don doing the yelling to other Sooner fans......
(Reminds me of Billy Sims and the year that Jason White won the Heisman - goofball sitting in the Downtown Athletic Club screaming Boomer over and over again!
)
