Oh the places We Go, The People We see

[jenseib]

So then Paige and Michael have agreed to provide you with enough grandkids?

I think I'm going to have to let Katie grow up. I'm not getting any younger. And I'm leaning toward believing Robbie and Timmy when they say they are never getting married and having kids. They are 17 and 19, and so far no girlfriends, no dates, no proms.

But after seeing what turmoil that has caused some of their friends, I'll take the alternative!

We've decided Katie will probably be the first one here to even GO on a date!

Yes. Paige will have the grand kids. I've decided that.

Michael likes girls, it's getting them to like him thats the problem.

You and Brook take the best (and most) pictures!

More meets huh? And you are on day what, 2 of your trip? I wonder how many people you meet ....

We take a lot yes. I have a bit of a problem. It seems I can never take enough. And you know how important it is to get the same shot every time you go.
Yep still day 2. I am trying to get this day wrapped up so I can get closer to the day I meet up with one of the most famous "Disers" ever!
I meet some of less importance in between then. Just kidding of course, I was happy to meet everyone I met along the way.

Do to my busy life, it took me 3 days to finally catch up on your TR. I just realized that after 26 pages we are still on day 2 of your trip!! Can't wait to hear about the rest...

I do post a LOT of pictures, plus I am slow. I do try to give lots of details ...that is when I remember then. Old age is catching up to me fast!

So Paige is aware of this, right? Just tell her all your friends on the DIS took a vote and decided she's the official supplier of Jen's grandbabies!

She does want kids, but she wants boys. UGH!

 

[mom2rtk]

WHAT! Tell her that's a NO GO!

Boys are great and all. But for Disney purposes...... she needs GIRLS!

EXACTLY! Plus my son was the wild child and my girls were so much easier. now the teen years with Paige weren't exactly nice, but now she is much better. She needs a taste of teen girl too.

Claire and I got the pork shank and a drink to share.

Jen, this man in line looks an aweful lot like my dh. Looks like his Indian's hat and glasses. Could we have been that close to each other?


That's too bad that the ride was not working.

The Gaston meet does look dark, but your pictures got ok. He is pretty arrogant, isn't he, lol.

Great pictures with Ariel. You can tell Claire loves her. Did you make a snapfish photobook for her autograph book?

I wonder if it is. It was during the party on Nov. 2nd? Were you there then?

Carey made the book. It's really cute.

 

[Lovemy3babes]

Gaston seems like a hoot! Morghan didn't have much interest in meeting him so we passed. I sure wish I would have made her! His line "so glad you could meet me" made me really giggle.

Great pictures! I love meeting up with Disney friends.

 

[MEK]

Phew. Caught up again. Crazy week trying to make a soccer video for my son's soccer banquet. Glad that's over.

I had to laugh at Claire bossing you around on Dumbo and saying the games in the tent are for babies. Yes - she is quite the mature 7 year old.

Love the pictures of claire with Daisy and Goofini. It is so dark there, but you did a great job getting your pictures to lighten up.

I love that you guys had the same costume, but that whole changing in the locker room did not sound fun.

And I would have felt like flipping too when I get in a line like that. Some people can really just tie up a line.

Fun updates!

I am glad I made Claire meet him. He was new and fun and even though she was shy, it was worth it and now she talks about that memory.

Take her to Chuck E Cheese though and she won't say it's for babies!

We got some great pictures that night. It was really a very fun evening all around. And I wasn't sent to jail for flipping out when I needed food. Always a plus!

 

[jenseib]

So the plan was to trick or treat and then head off to a dance party. Carey said that was a big highlight for Kadence the year before, and I knew Claire was one who liked to dance too.

One trick or treat area was by the River boats, but this one seems to be connected to the dock with its decorations. I guess it wasnt up and running.

We got quite a bit of candy in just the few stops we made and then off to the dance party.
At first Claire was shy again. UGH. I know she loves to dance, but she seemed like it might be embarrassing to do it now. I tried to dance a bit with her, but that was even more embarrassing.

Finally the 2 got their groove going, yet, they weren't about to get too close!

As time went on, they started getting a bit closer to each other.

I have no clue why Claire is making such a face.

And finally success. They now were dancing officially together and they were talking!

You will notice I did a really good job at getting the back side of them. I swear no matter how I tired, I couldnt get their faces in the pictures. And the few I did were blurry blobs.

Every time I tried to do a little sideline dancing, I got a dirty look. The DJ started playing Hammer Time. I didn't pay attention to what he was saying, and when you are supposed to yell out hammer time I did so, and was the only one. I think it was partly because many kids had no clue, and then I think the other part was we were supposed to wait for his cue to do so. LOL. Yet I couldn't seem to catch on to that and kept yelling it. Oops.

Finally we decided it was time to pull the kids away from dancing and do some more party fun. We headed over towards Splash Mountain/BTMRR area. I think the plan was to trick or treat there and then ride the ride, but the ride itself was not running.

The queue was decorated so cute.

It actually had a pretty long line that split at one point to have 2 lines for the same station. It moved fairly fast though. We did notice that the Dwarves were NOT out this evening. I was hoping to get a glimpse of them, but it wasn't meant to be.

After we got another large handful of candy we continued on and Hallow Wishes had just started. Another thing I had forgotten about. I tried to take a couple of pictures as we walk.

We saw this guy dressed as Jack Sparrow as we were walking. He looked AMAZING! Honestly we were questioning whether he was the real one or not, he was that good. Perfect mannerisms and everything! Some people were stopping off and asking him to take a picture with him. But he ended up joining a scary looking bride eventually, so we knew it was a guy in costume, but Wow! He was great!

We made another pit stop at the same trick or treat station we had been to earlier and then over towards the Haunted Mansion for some Magic shots.

Holy cow! Look fireworks are going off right behind the Mansion! How cool is that?

While we waited in line Carey and I just kept shooting.

It was just GORGEOUS!!!!

 

[that's nice]

I'm glad Claire was able to warm up to Kadence. The dance party looked like a lot of fun. We tried to do one during MVMCP but Juliana was shot by then.

Beautiful pictures of the fireworks behind HM!

 

[jenseib]

Soon it was our turn for the Magic shot. Claire was a little iffy about this, but I told her we would be fine and no ghosts were going to show up at the moment. Carey and family went first, and then it was our turn.

We moved on. We saw this girl a couple of times. We loved her braid.

She was with a guy dressed as Flynn and he was pretty much dead on too. And they had a friend dressed as Jasmine. I really liked how they went all out. It makes me a bit jealous that I am not so talented.

We headed back to the New Fantasyland. We had to check on the Little Mermaid ride once again.

It’s really hard to get a picture of Eric’s castle in the dark.

It was open! Score! I think it listed the wait as 5 or 10 minutes, but basically it was walk on. BUT that queue is REALLY long. Extremely long. I would hate to wait in that! And I have heard since it has opened, the wait times have been just awful.

Carey and I were snapping away as we walked through the queue.

We finally got up to the omnimovers.

It stopped for a second and we panicked that it might be broke down again, but it quickly restarted.
