Make lemonade, of course!!!
Hello and welcome to my fourth trip report!!
So what's with the title? The idea came about during a conversation on Living with the Land where I suggested we make margaritas when asked what you do with a nine pound lemon. Unfortunately, I don't think lemons are an ingredient in margaritas....but I'm getting ahead of myself! We'll get to that conversation eventually.
But I thought that quote was fitting because the nine pound lemon is sort of a metaphor for this trip. As Lou Mongello would say while trying to explain why the Main Street Bakery is on his list of Top Ten sounds in Walt Disney World, "Just go with me here!"
Much like a nine pound lemon being way to large to even know what to do with it all, as was this trip! Disney handed us a nine pound lemon of a trip and by god, we made some freaking lemonade! Or maybe a Grey Goose slushie would be more fitting....
If you read along in my PTR, you already know that this long weekend had the most action a Disney trip has ever had! (A disney trip of mine, anyway.) If you'd like to catch up, here it is!

Normally it's just the two of us so, aside from going with both my family and Tom's family, we also had MNSSHP, first weekend of Food and Wine, the Halloween 5K AND the 40th anniversary.
This is probably the MOST excited I've ever been to tell you all about my trip. The pictures are amazing and we had such a fantastic time!
So who was on this amazing trip??
Nikki (that's me!)
DH - Tom
My family - Mom, Dad, Sister, Niece, BIL
(We were only with them for a few hours one night so I just put a pic of us all together!)
Tom's brother Gary....(this pic was taken RIGHT after he sipped the Beverly! Wait until you see the picture taken a second later!!)
Gary's wife Erin..... (indulging in a butterfinger cupcake...SPOILER ALERT!)
(Here's a nicer picture of the two of them!)
.... and their son Conor
I just can't WAIT to get started!!!!
