Daddy & Grandpa Star in the Backlot Tour stunt show (video)​

We headed to the Backlot Tour next. They ask for volunteers in the beginning of the backlot tour and my father in law just raised his hand right away. I was surprised-usually Keith would never do something like that, but because his dad did-so did he. You have to check out the video-My husband was just hysterical.

We waited for them and moved on to the second part of the tour.
Lindsey loved riding with mom on her power scooter...

We LOVE Enchanted...this past spring we went to central park and had a carriage ride and went to the huge disney store. All I kept thinking about was that big dance scene in CP from Enchanted. That was a great day. I took Li to see it twice in the theaters and of course we watch the DVD all the time.

Mike Wizosky (sp?) Two movies I LOVED that Lindsey could never sit through...Monster's INC & Toy Story. Now since we've gotten back she's watched Toy Story all the way through and loved it. I just have to try Monster's INC again. During our trip she loved Mike-mostly from the laugh floor.

We LOVED LOVED LOVED TSM. I wish I went on it twice and took more pictures. We used our dream FPs for it. It was at least a 35-40 min wait without them. We whizzed right to the front and got right on. The ride has the best parts of other rides all in one. 3D movie, arcade game, a ride...perfect.

The Voyage of the Little Mermaid was adorable. It was just about time for the next show when we passed by after TSM so we went in. I think because of our shirts Lindsey got asked to introduce the show....

Watch Video​

I hope all these clips work...let me know

great updates and pics.

the video was great.

Great video. I was wondering why it was so quiet while you were watching the fireworks, but then I saw all the trees and water and realized that you were at the Poly. Is your video camera a regular camera too?? That's kinda cool. Congrats to Lindsey for getting to introduce the Ariel show! How fun was that!!!

 

[Mom2Lindsey]

We had front row seats for the BB show. MIL had her power chair so we got some special treatment. It was a great way to see the show. We love B&B

We got on ToT and RR before we left.

That night was Chef Mickey's and MIL & FIL's last night with us before they moved on with their vacation.

 

[Mom2Lindsey]

A little out of order...that's what I get for waiting so long. My pics are all mixed up in photobucket.

50s PT Cafe was before BB for lunch

 

[OneTreeHillAddict]

I was wondering what happened to you. Glad you're back. Love the new pics!

This was my most favorite day of our trip. I should have done this page first while everything was fresh in my memory. Now I know why people keep journals and take notes of their trips.


DH was very annoyed at me this morning because he wanted to get up and out to MK for our last day. Well, that was not going to happen. We DO NOT get up early or move swiftly in the mornings. Lindsey had a 1:30 tea party with Alice at 1900 Park Fare. By the time we were ready to go to breakfast it was 10am-I just wanted to take it easy and not rush around since we had MNSSHP at night. Low and behold MIL and FIL were eating BF at Kona so we got to say so long and a big thank you to them. I thought we'd just go to GF and explore while we waited for the tea party. Too bad there isn't that much to explore there-oh well. It is beautiful of course though. It was the only day of our trip we saw rain so it was good that we didn't go to the parks. We got Miss Linds dressed up as Alice and took the monorail.

I loved her in this dress. She got all the attention I wanted her to get on our BBB day and didn't. And she was more comfortable in this one.

It got a little boring waiting it out and someone got a little impatient, but we made it! The tea party was the cutest thing.

Keith and I had the best lunch of our trip at GF cafe by ourselves, while we waited for Lindsey

When we got back they were all pretending to be sleeping and then they surprised us with flowers. She was a little teary when we left, but there was no trace of that when we got back.

MNSSHP next.............

 

[lmillercrew]

Hey there you are! I'd forgotten that you hadn't finished your report. Lindsey looks so cute as Alice. The dress doesn't look as scratchy as the one she wore for her BBB. I'm so excited to see how you like MNSSHP!

Just a little late for Halloween, but here we come. After the tea party we took the monorail to MK for MNSSHP. We got there around 3 so we had some time before the party started. We hadn't explored Frontierland or Adventureland yet. That kept us more than busy. This was the only day of our trip that we saw any rain, but it wasn't bad at all. Keith got to ride big thunder mountain on his own though. I didn't realize how much fun Adventureland would be. Lindsey's favorite was PoC and I was surprised. We went on it a couple times in a row.

Lindsey stayed dressed in Alice the rest of the day.

 

[Mom2Lindsey]

We got to go back to Fantasyland too and do all the rides Li loved a second time. It was a great day and my favorite by far at MK.

And with NO LINE we got on HM for a second time too

I was very excited to "check in" for the Halloween party. I really didn't know where to go or what to do. It was confusing. We should have been able to do it when we went in and got our bracelets then even though it was early.

It was very cool to see the place transform

The first thing we did was head over to the line for Cinderella's stepmother and sisters. They were the BEST characters I saw all trip. They were over the top and entertained everyone the entire time we waited on line.

They even fought with these kid's light sabers-hysterical

I had the Evil Queen on my shirt and the one sister said, "oh she was our babysitter'

[Mom2Lindsey]

We went to the front of the castle next to see the villain show. I LOVE the evil queen so I couldn't wait to meet her.

Here was my chance. I gave the camera to another lady and I didn't change it to the right setting so this was all I got Keith was keeping our place for the parade which was to start next.

I cannot believe I saw the dwarves! The lind was so huge though I just snapped this

Lindsey LOVES Minnie

Alice in Wonderland trick or treating stop

 

[Mom2Lindsey]

 

[Mom2Lindsey]

I was not that impressed with the photopass pics we DID get nor with the fact that they were not readily available at times I did want one taken

 

[Mom2Lindsey]

This was Lindsey at the very end of the night. We got to see Hallowishes fireworks and they were the best fireworks we saw. Keith got on Space Mountain too

 

[lmillercrew]

Fantastic update!! You're parade pictures were great.
And poor old Fred. That da** rock falling on his head.

 

[scottny]
