I cannot believe your assistant server was so slow and charged your sister some drinks she had not had. Hope you got it all figured out!
I just love all the character pics you got! And that Miss Abby is one cute kid.
What a shame about the issues with the drinks checks. I love the photos of Enchanted Garden and the character photos are precious. I particularly love the photos with Donald.

Loved Clair's dress
Lots of character fun!!
Luvin the pics with Chip and Dale
All caught up!! I am getting so excited for our upcoming WDW/Dream trip (18 days). I love reading your report because it makes me even more excited!!
See, I'm here as well. LOL Love Claire's dress. You are so talented with needle and thread.
Great pics of storybook circus.
The party looked like a lot of fun.
That room was really nice.
I would have flipped out if I had someone elses bag.
Great pics boarding the ship. It looked so pretty.
Great overall pics.
All caught up now. Enjoying the report.
Catching up on your latest updates. Sorry your servers weren't as good as others have been.
Love the pics of the girls with the characters, that little Abby is too cute.
I love the pictures with the girls and Chip 'n' Dale.
Yes. Veranda's are so nice. All rooms are nice, but just sitting out and watching the world go by is something extra. Claire will be a bit heartbroken if we ever go to an inside. She's a bit spoiled now. Well she's spoiled in a lot of ways. As she was throwing a fit the other night I reminded her how she gets things and has done things that most of the kids she knows has not done and she should think about that.
Yeah, Katie gets that talk every now and then too. She sort of had it with herself last night though. We were watching last week's episode of "The Middle" over again. Mike threatens Sue with their "Disney change jar". And poor says she was always dreamed of Disney. To which Katie says "I don't even have to dream about Disney. I've seen it. A lot of times." I told her maybe she's been too much and I should leave her home next time......
I just got tot he part where you said you don't like early dinner. I'm just heartbroken. I guess we'll have to cancel our cruise together! That would just never work for me. If I don't eat on time (and early) you wouldn't even want to be around me. No..... wait..... maybe I could just stuff my pockets full of chocolate chip cookies! I do see your point about Dine and Play though. If you had little kids, that could certainly make or break things.
The Enchanted Garden is SO pretty. Are those skylights? OK, yes, I'm stupid, if they are, are they real or fake?
I really feel for you trying to get a good shot of all 3 girls. But I see you found the secret........ just get Donald in the shot!
This shot is ADORABLE!
I also love Claire's dress and thought for a moment you had been holding out on me and started sewing! Great idea though, and it looks like great execution. So perfect for the Golden Mickey show!
Claire is home sick today. She has a cough and headache. Getting meds in her is chore, but when she has them she is good. You can tell when they wear off. We have been reading my TR together today and she is giving me her 2 cents every so often. The thing is, I am not getting anything done at all ...and I just want to go ahead and book myself another trip.
We could still do late dinner, you could get some chicken strips in early on or visit cabanas and then have late dinner too. Though I could do early dinner if I had to. Claire is actually pretty well behaved eating, but when she gets with other kids she gets antsy.
I can't sew to save my life. One of the girls I work with actually made the applique, just playing around when I asked and then I knew her teacher could sew, so I asked if she could put it on the dress, which I got off ebay for dirt cheap. We need to cruise again before she outgrows it!
And those are just panes of glass (or plastic) with lights in them.
Even though we've only cruised that one time, I know that I wouldn't like the early dining. I've been dropping hints here and there about wanting to go on a cruise again. Who am I kidding? I've been TELLING John that I want to cruise again but so far it's not working.
I'm betting that your sister has a little spitfire in her hands with Abby. She's adorable!
I hope Claire feels better soon.

Jen,
I didn't even notice you were also and Ohioian until you mentioned that you had friends move to our part of the state... Are you close? Anyway, the shots of the girls turned out so cute. I love the innocence of the youth with the characters while they really TRULY believe. That's why I tell my friends with kids that you can never take them to Disney too early. My youngest was 2 on our last trip and the look on her face in anticiapation as we got closer and closer to meeting Mickey was to die for. As my kids are getting older I miss those moments. Our kids all love Disney don't get me wrong, but as you and they age their view of the Magic changes too. They love the characters, but really know what's going on in there.. haha
So sorry Claire is under the weather today. We've sure had our share of it this year.
Needing to use that dress again before she outgrows it sounds like a great excuse to plan another trip!
Sorry Claire's not feeling well. Here's some (hopefully) healing for both of you.
Tell Clair to get well soon
