Amazing! Love the atmosphere of San Angel. And your meal sounds delicious. Cute pics with Donald too. An awesome Epcot day all around
It was an awesome day! We just Love Epcot! I know so many parents with young kids who tend to avoid it thinking it would be too "boring" for the kids but we always find enough to do and have such a great time doing it!
Congrats on purchasing DVC points!
Love those Beverly faces!
So awesome that you got to meet Katt.
Sounds like a busy but fun day!
Thanks!! It's was so very exciting to buy into DVC!
The kids' Beverly faces cracked me up too! And it was funny, Isla said that she actually liked it and asked for more! LOL!
It was great to meet Katt in person!
Such a busy day, as usual but I wouldn't have it any other way! hehe
Yay an update! So since you all have been in Sept and November, which did you prefer? I went last November and loved the Christmas theming but thinking of trying late Sept for Halloween type events, but cant decide because the Christmas castle is the best!
My vote would definitely be for September. It was nice seeing Magic Kingdom decked out for Christmas but it was much more crowded and much cooler in November than I was expecting. We had great weather when we went end of Sept/beginning of Oct and the low-crowds couldn't be beat! Plus the Autumn theming in the parks is great and Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween party is (in my opinion) way better than the Christmas party. And of course there is the Food & Wine Festival going on at Epcot which we LOVE!
Great update!! Your kids are adorable!!
Aww thank you so much!!
That looks incredible, i have never heard of this before.
It was incredible!!
Looks like such a fun day!
It was a fabulous day!
I'm behind and trying desperately to catch up but I have to say you have become my favorite family by meeting my favorite character *and my favorite princess! It makes me sad that Sulley (and Mike) don't seem to be a priority any more and Merida I guess isn't fancy enough for a lot of the little girls.
On top of them you got to meet Peter! I'm officially jealous!
How cool that your girls got to be part of FotLK! Years ago mine were picked to be King and Queen of the Jungle and opened the old Tarzan show. My youngest is now a freshman in college and my son will be 22 in a few days and they both still talk about it.
Back to reading!
I love that even years later, your kids still talk about those special Disney memories! That's what I'm hoping for with my kids too!
How awesome that you bought into DVC! DH and I are contemplating resale right now. We are using our upcoming stay at AKL as a test run to see how it goes and if it seems worth pursuing further.
Jorie is quite the little daredevil! DS definitely isn't, at least not now, so I can only hope DD will be when she gets bigger! Not gonna lie, I panicked the first time we went on the ride and it was just DH and I. I kept wondering what would happen since there weren't two other people to hit the buttons!! lol
The reactions to Beverly are just priceless!! That stuff is just so nasty!
Oh wow, that ice cream sandwich looks like heaven!!
I am so looking forward to when DD is old enough to do pick a pearl! I hope it's still there by then. What kind of settings can you do in the store?
Oh I hope you love your stay at AKL!
We purchased enough points so that we could use them for a trip once every other year. But now you and I both know that that won't be enough Disney for us, haha! We're hoping in the next couple of years to buy a second contract resale to have extra points at a home resort that is more affordable for our family than the VGF.
Jorie sure is a daredevil!! She wants to go on anything and everything. And she gets so mad if she's not tall enough to ride it. lol She still has an inch and a half to go before she can ride Rock n Roller coaster... I hope she makes it before February. Your DS sounds like my DS. Donovan always has been and still is hesitant to ride everything.
OK I'm all caught up now. Congratulations on buying DVC! I'm a heck of a lot older than Donovan and I won't ride Splash or RnR. I think I've turned out OK.
Can't wait for the rest!
Yay for getting caught up! I purposely start reading TRs towards the end so that I can binge read through them, haha!
Hello. your family is soooooo cute. Your tr's are adorable. I'm in love with the Disney clothes. OMG I'm jealous of the clothes. I can't wait to read more. I noticed that you will be in Disney in a little over a month I am too. I will be there October 17th to the 23rd.
You're so sweet!!! YES! We are going in October too... but just Joe and I! Darn, we JUST miss you ... we'll be there October 13-15. I found super cheap Southwest flights ($62 from Philly to MCO!!!) so I couldn't pass that up and since we still have our APs which are good until November. Our wedding anniversary is Oct 2nd, so we thought why not do a quick getaway to celebrate?, and it just so happens to be Food & Wine AND
MNSSHP, whoo hoo!!!!! We're SO excited!
HURRAY!!!! Trip report update!!!
Hope that your family had a wonderful summer.
WOW!!! Congrats and welcome home!!! DVC is so tempting.
The kids' faces with Beverly are hysterical. What great pictures.
Love these outfits! As always.
A wonderful update. It's great to hear more about your trip.
We did have a wonderful summer, thanks! It always seems to fly by way too quickly though. Now we're trying to get back in the swing of things with juggling school and activities and work. Yikes!
We are so happy to be DVC owners. It's nice knowing that we'll have Disney trips in our future for many, many years to come!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the update. I hope to get another one posted soon!
