I have to say I am loving your TR! The kiddies are beyond adorable and the adults look like they all get along so well...you can just tell how much fun you're all having!! Great update!!
Yes. Yes you ARE crazy! But the memories you make together will be worth the crowds and expenses!!Great Trip Report and what a beautiful family! Our extended family of 20 is heading to WDW the week after Christmas (are we crazy??) for our own Grand Adventure. We have our family reunions at WDW every 3 years and this year we decided to choose the Holiday time; hope we won't regret it.
This year we will have a 3 year old and a 4 year old who will see the castle for the first time. They've actually seen it before but were too young to remember. Anyhow, just seeing your little one's face made me smile and also made me very excited to think of my two little granddaugthers seeing the castle and meeting a princess for the first time.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful pictures and your story.

It was great for us having a first-timer... since we go so often, that feeling of awe and amazement gets lost for us (unless we witness something new, like the Memories show at the castle!!). So we just LOVED having Avabelle with us!Avabelle's expressions are just priceless! I love seeing how excited kids get when they experience the magic of Disney.
Updates to come soon!! Thanks for waiting and for enjoying the memories!Cant wait hurry up the girls remind me of my neices when we took them at that age oh what memories
Welcome! And thanks for commenting!! I hope you give O'hana a try, and that you love it as much as we do! I've heard of some people having bad experiences, but we have NEVER had a bad one there!subbing!!! Really enjoying your TR thus far. Have always wanted to try O'Hana and after reading this we are definatly gonna have to try it. I also love reading first time trips for people. Whether it be kids or adults. And seeing her face seeing the castle for the first time reminds me of when we took my step son to Disney for the first time.

You just made my day!! Thank you so much!!!I have loved reading this so much that I subscribed AND went back and read some of your other reports!
She DID bring the ears... but didn't wear them as much. Honestly, I think it was the HEAT! Plus, she was always so distracted with her fun times with Avabelle, that we would forget about the ears! She still has them though... I'm sure they'll be back for our fall trip!Love Avabelle's pictures the first time in the Magic Kingdom. It is just precious.
I also love the picture of Shae and her with Tink in their hands.
Okay, where is Miss Shae's princess ears? Please don't tell me that she is not wearing them now. I loved how she wore then in your other reports!
Thanks! I tried to use Photopass as much as possible since we pre-ordered the CD.Your pictures turned out great, I love the one of the girls holding Tinkerbell.
I also love your shirt Sooze, is that from the parks?
Love the brotherly love in this one. Matt is purposely blocking Ben's face. Some things never change, eh?
Welcome!! I'm happy you found me, and that you are enjoying the report!! Lots of fun stuff to come!Just found your TR and I have already subbed! You and your family seem like y'all have so much fun together! Excited to see Avabelles reactions to more firsts and the funny photos!
You know, sometimes it's a pain in the rear to stop what you are doing and make time for photopass pictures (we usually blow right past them), but I'm so glad we took that time! Such great pictures of ALL of us!Great pictures!
I too love your shirt...that color looks really good on you! Brothers...some things never change do they My sister and I are the same way....she would argue that it's more me than her though
Welcome! I often wonder how many people I've turned AWAY with that picture! I'm sure some Boston-type folks have QUICKLY clicked off my report!Stumbled across you TR tonight. I knew I had to read it when I saw the family picture featuring everyone in Yankees shirts
They make me smile, too. It was so magical!The photos of your neice witnessing everything for the first time are too precious! I can't stop smiling looking at them.
Me too!! Have you eaten there before?This is the second TR I've read today with pictures of Ohana food. It looks so good, I so want to be there eating it right now.
Update coming today!Can't wait to read more
I did not notice that! Looks like they are both ganging up on poor Uncle Ben!And it looks like Pahta is up to no good too. His hand is coming down on Ben's head. Other than that, the pictures look like family portraits -- really great!
Glad you enjoyed it!!Oh my goodness!!! How sweet is that update!!! Great update so far! You all seem like such a fun bunch!
Thanks so much! When they took that picture, Auntie Cindy said, "What are they doing with their hands?" I said, "Do you want me to tell you, or do you want to be surprised?" She said, "Ooo! I'll be surprised!!" It's SO much fun to be in Disney with people who don't 'know it all'Great pictures! I especially love the one of Shae and Avabelle! Too cute!
Great pictures!
They really capture everyone's excitement.
