I have to applaud all those dress changes for the girls, and all before lunch! lol How in the world do you not have a million suitcases to fit all those adorable outfits?!
As you know, we are HUGE fans of the pre-park opening Crystal Palace breakfasts. I'm glad your first experience with it was just as great! That Pooh's puffed French toast is just heavenly. I think it's worth the price of the breakfast alone. So delicious!! I don't think I have ever tried the breakfast lasagna. I'll have to try it in October.
Cute meet with Merida!
I love that all the girls got parts in Enchanted Tales. Paxton wouldn't do it last time, and I'm thinking he might be like Donovan and not want to do it next time either. Hopefully I will be wrong. It's such a cute show with all the kids' participation!
Bronwyn's airplane pose is just the cutest! lol That will be a funny story to tell when she is looking back on the pictures later in life and wondering why she is doing that in every photo.
Oh, yeah, your purse is ADORABLE!! I really love the Mickey head on the coinpurse too with the teapot pattern.
Well I never said there wasn't a million suitcases, haha!! I tried to think back and count and I think we had 6 carry-ons and 6 checked bags, which is quite impressive for all of the clothes that I fit into them!
I'm drooling just thinking of the Pooh's puffed french toast! SO yummy. If you like strawberry & banana, then you definitely need to try the breakfast lasagna in October.
Bronwyn is too funny with her airplane pose... she doesn't like the attention at all. hahahaha
I feel so behind!! I loved your first trip report, in fact it helped solidify the fact that I needed custom outfits for my daughter for sure! We returned from 'home' in early December and are planning on returning (not soon enough) with our dance group in June 2016. Super excited to get more inspiration from your report.
Also, trying to convince my DH to look into DVC point rentals so I am glad to hear that with research, you can find great deals.
Aww, yay! I'm happy that I helped inspire some Disney customs love.
Yes, you should definitely look into renting DVC points. The villas are AH-MAZ-ING!!!!
Yeah, I'd say ya'll are VIP's walking not only to Magic Kingdom but directly INTO Magic Kingdom.
I STILL haven't met Merida.
Seriously, I would have thought by now they'd have moved her to somewhere new (with FP) like they did with Rapunzel. I guess I just have to wait for a new princess to be introduced.
OMG the "airplane pose" kills me. And it's hard to tell from the photos, but I think that might be my "Anna Kendrick" Belle I met in World Showcase on a prior trip.
VIPs, huh?!! Nah, we didn't have someone with a plaid vest leading the way! hahaha
I couldn't believe how long we waited for Merida! Not sure if the line is always long like that or not, but if so then she definitely deserves a FP! You should definitely add her to your bucket list... she was a fun princess to meet.
Ya know, I think you might be right about our Belle being your "Anna Kendrick" Belle.
I just found our trip report and I'm loving it so far! I remember reading your first trip report a few months ago and I loved your kids clothes! You do such a great job with coordinating all their outfits to the parks/experiences. I'm kind of new to disboards (and you're trip report is the first place I've ever commented on here...I'm taking a baby step, haha!). I love reading your report to see how "larger" families can do Disney too! We have 3 kids (4, 3, 9m, and there will be a 4th eventually) and took our oldest two to Disney for the first time back in Jan '14. Now I'm kind of obsessed! We have our next trip planned for February of next year and I can't wait! Maybe I'll even attempt our own trip report!
Yay for your first post!!! That is awesome! Aww I feel honored.
We are going back in February too! I'm thinking our dates will be the 17th- 26th. Do we have any overlapping days? Yes, you should definitely write a trip report! It's a fun way to relive all of those magical memories from your trip.
I'm all caught up! Wow! I still can't believe all the outfit changes. That requires some real dedication and attention to detail. You must have planned out each day so thoroughly! The girls' dresses are precious and good for your hubby and son for being such great sports! Your photo pass pictures are great! I love Bronwyn's airplane arms. Super cute! Can't wait to see what happens with the DVC meeting. We're half way through the resale process ourself.

Yes, I definitely planned out each day & outfit to a T (haha, can we say OCD?)
OMG BEST TRIP REPORT!! I just can't get over it. Your kids are adorable! And the outfits!! Are you kidding me!!!! I LOVE THEM ALL!! How on earth!! Did you make them??? Where did you find them!!?? You did such an amazing job organizing this magical trip for your family!! The attention to details and "theme" is OFF THE HOOK! I love it!! I swear, I am taking notes!! We are going this August, my kids are super excited. Its so nice to see families spending great time together!
BEST REPLY EVER!!!
OMG, thank you thank you!!! You are just the sweetest!!!
I spend a lot of time searching (stalking, haha) Disney customs facebook groups that I'm a part of, to find the perfect outfits. And then I work with some amazing designers that help make coordinating sets for the rest of the kiddos.
