Hey Trish! Good luck with the photography...not that you'll need it. I'm sure you'll do a FANTASTIC job.
And I take it all back....yes, it can definitely get much worse than your dinner at Chef Mickey's. Glad to hear that Katie was feeling better on Day 2.
Subscribing.......Great report
Hooray for updates! I'm really looking forward to reading them!
I know it is more stressful for you to have the party at home, but you have such a talent for this. I am really excited to read about all the details of this next party. I'm just glad that my kids are not on these boards as they would no longer be impressed about my party planning skills after reading about all the you do!!!
We had a pirate themed party for my son a few years ago. Since it was in the summer, it was great because we had it outdoors and had quite a few water based activities that the kids enjoy and also helps keep them cool. My favorite part was that when each child arrived, they received their bandana, eye patch, and tattoo to officially become a pirate (hey I had a pirate's league of my own before it started in WDW!!!!!!).
Looking forward to reading more.
i love parties but there is just so much stress when you try to put a theme together, especially my kids who pick themes that do not exist in stores. ryan picked club penguin. i made invites that looked like club penguin news, created custom goody bag toppers since i could not afford any club penguin toppers. baked a cake and covered it in fondant complete with an igloo and drew rockhopper the penguin with a cutout hole for the kids heads, and a custom penguin shirt for the bday boy . just two weeks later was my dd's team umi zoomi party complete with a custom milli cake, homemade invitations, 21 beach pails with the charaters drawn on them in pink, blue and green color scheme with only coordinating pink blue and green items inside including bubbles with umi zoomi labels saying mias 4th bday and of course more cutouts of characters with room for kiddos heads. somedays i wish i was not type A
good luck with the party planning and i'll still be here if you wait to write till after then, i feel it is good preparation for my august trip with my disney hater
Yes...I will definitely be back again soon! Maybe sooner than you would think! I may soon have to change my title!
Man, what a bummer of a start to your trip. Sorry Katie wasn't well but I'm glad to hear it didn't last!!
sounds like you have a lot going on right now! Patrick had talked about a TS3 movie party which I was very excited about but he worried that his friends would think it was for "kids" (he's turning 9 and trying to figure out this growing up thing! he's actually very excited for the movie) He's decided on a pool party instead
I'm hoping for some pixie dust to catch up with you on your trip!
Ooh, like the sound of that!
Have a great weekend! I know you'll do great with the photography and the party planning too. Can't wait to hear all about it!

Glad to see that the morning went relatively smoothly.
Crystal Palace is someplace I have never eaten at. After reading your TR and Keala's, I think that next time (if ever ) I'm at WDW, I'm going to have to book in for a breakfast there! MK looks gorgeous in the morning without the crowds. Shame about underusing the photopass...but I'm sure your pics are great!
What gorgeous pictures! They made me appreciate Main Street in a whole new way!
Great pictures! I am glad Katie woke up feeling better. We did dinner at CP and didn't love it. But I would definitely consider breakfast just so we could walk down Main St. with no crowds! I agree that the characters there were awesome. Some of my best pictures from our last trip were from CP.
This sounds like the perfect start to the day at Disney World! Walking from your hotel to a nearly empty Main Street and eating a yummy breakfast with the hundred acre wood gang! Just awesome! And at this meal the kids looks like they are having a great time
Wow, those are fantastic pics of Main Street! I am glad that you at least had a great breakfast and that Katie was feeling better. I am always surprised by how bright Piglet is! The buffet looks yummy!
I agree that the walk from Contemporary to Magic Kingdom is the best! So calm and peaceful. Did you guys leave your bags in the room or with bell services?
Love all of your Main Street pictures!
We just ate at Crystal Palace for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Loved it!
Your first full day is off to a great start!
I the Crystal Palace.
Can't wait to hear about the BC.
WOW! I have always heard the 8am breakfast at CP is the way to go. I see why now!! Your Main Street pictures are beautiful! So neat how everything is empty and so pretty. Your food looked awesome and, of course, the characters were adorable The kids looked like they were having a great time. Can't wait to read about the great Dumbo Dash
