LOVE the PP pictures, especially the HM ones! I am still kicking myself because we missed that opportunity the night we went. It was pouring rain and we all just ran from place to place in our big ponchos trying not to get wet. We didn't get a lot of pictures at all
Your shirts are super cute too!
Thank you
I think it would have been tough to do during the rain, that stinks!! I wish we had waited for the Cinderellas coach one, but the line was so long!
I somehow missed you starting your TR, but I'm all caught up now and subbing!
First off: CONGRATS! How exciting... and such a lovely ring!!!!
As for the 'overheard' conversation, that is absolutely hilarious. I am grateful every time I hear something like that for my DH, who loves Disney and doesn't feel that it is 'beneath' him.
(You totally know that guy ended up cracking a smile at some point... probably came home wearing a set of Mickey Ears!!!)
I was really bummed on our trip that we didn't get to check out D Street, apparently they had a massive power outage in DTD the day we went, and all the shops along the waterfront were closed! Boo.
I swear there is something about a picture of the Virginia Piedmont that you just KNOW what you're looking at. Which wineries did you go to? We're actually heading down tomorrow for a weekend at Barboursville and are thinking about trying some new places in C'vill / south this weekend. Any suggestions?
Again, congratulations and I look forward to reading more of your report!!!
Thank you
I like to think that grumpy guy on the bus ended up having a great time...he was probably just anxious to get vacation started!
Aww bummer about D Street...I think it has become one of my favorite shops down there!
Oh my gosh the wineries were so beautiful!! My friends drove and we just randomly picked places we drove near...we ended up going to Afton Mountain, , King Family Vineyards, and Pollak Vineyards...they were all beautiful but I liked the wine at King Family and Afton Mountain the best
Love the balloon and castle pics! You can never have too many of them
Yay on meeting Prince Naveen! I so wanted to meet him and Tiana on our trip but we weren't lucky.
I have to agree in that the HM interactive queue is so much fun! Your photos with the ghosts look great
Thank you
I have met them both together before and they are great characters for interaction, very fun!!
Hey girl!
Your
MNSSHP shirts are just adorable-- where did you get them?
I love all your pictures so far and your ME experience with the grumpy dude behind you!
Can't wait to hear the engagement story!!
Thank you
Tim actually found them at Hot Topic
I guess you have a one up on everyone else with my wedding plans due to those boards
Tim has excellent scary faces!
Are those ghost pictures only during Halloween or are they there all year round?
He is a pretty good actor!!
I think those pictures are just during Halloween time, but I am not sure
Hey!!
I totally creeped your pictures on facebook and started reading your TR at the same time, and I made the connection that they were one in the same! I just had to read the TR to find out the stories behind all your great photopass pictures!!
Congratulations on your engagement!! How romantic to be in Disney!! I can't wait to hear how he did it!! I am sucker for anything weddings... and Disney!
Can't wait to read more!!
Hey creeping is welcome!!
Thank you
and thanks for joining in on my TR
Prince Naveen is so cute! I love the faces he makes! That's so nice that he hung out with you guys for a while!
I really like the new HM queue, but next time I will probably just skip it to get on the ride faster! I can never find Mr. Toad's statue in the cemetery!
I love your ghost PP pictures! You guys actually look scared, Brandon and look ridiculous in ours!
Isn't he a cutie...he was so animated!!
Some of the times we went through the queue, if it was busy we just skipped it, HM is a ride we have to go on multiple times!! Mr. Toad is way in the back on the left...Tim pointed it out to me
I think I look a little silly, I need Tim to teach me
Ok, I'm a little late to the party and it looks like I've missed tons of exciting things! Congrats on the engagement! So happy for you! I'm going to try and get all caught up.
Thank you!!
I love the pictures! You guys look like you had a great time at MNSSHP!! I can't wait to experience it next year!
I'm not sure how well I would do at making a scared face for those pictures!! I have a tendency to start laughing when I'm supposed to pose like that for pictures!
I'm really enjoying your TR, can't wait to read more!
Thank you
when we return for our wedding we are thinking about doing MNSSHP again, it was a lot of fun!
I guess my scared face is just putting my hands up to my face
I love when you're able to spend one-on-one time with the characters; it makes you feel special and adds a little pixie dust to your night.
I agree, the new HM queue is very cool. However, I've only been through it once, because Alex is always anxious to get on the ride. Since the hitchhiking ghosts have been added at the end, it's become his favorite dark ride at WDW.
I don't think you made bad scary faces, and besides, it just gives you something to build on for future MNSSHPs!
It really was nice to not be rushed through a picture with Naveen, instead we got the full experience!
I was really anxious to get on it at first, but it was fun to check out the different features!
I need to practice scared faces for next time!!
Nice pictures! I can't wait to see the new HM additions.
I have to agree--Tim is a very good actor!
He may have a new career to look into if he gets sick of social work!
Shannon, I love the latest update. The pictures at the HM are terrific. You look great, but Tim's reactions are outstanding!
Thank you
I can imagine his ego growing reading all these compliments
Those PP are so good!! I love the ones with the ghosts in them...they are too cute!
I forgot to mention in my last post how much I loved your shirts!!
Thank you
I wish we had a reason to wear them again here!!
Great pictures! That's great that you guys get so into the spirit of the pictures. It looks like you're really having a lot of fun.
Thank you
we had such a good time at the party, but the travel and lack of sleep started to creep up on us that night!
I love the Haunted Mansion magic pictures. They're kinda cool, kinda scary.
How odd that they left Naveen out there by his lonesome! I always wonder how the characters act differently when they meet children vs. adults, is it sometimes nice to talk with adults more one-on-one instead of a huge long line of kids? It must be very exhausting to be that perky to all those kids! But I guess some adults would be more nit-picky about the character?
Castle and balloon pictures are classics. New ones are imperative.
Thank you!! I feel like Sleeping Beauty is one I have a hard time interacting with, but Naveen was awesome!
I love you HM Photopass pics! They look awesome! I'm bummed though because I didn't know about the hitchhiking ghosts one! I so wish I would have gotten that one too!
Also, how far into the trip is the engagement? I'm getting so anxious waiting to here how he proposed!
Thank you
when I decided to pre purchase the photopass cd I did major research where the magic shots would be!
Its pretty far into the trip, but I did start a wedding planning report on the wedding section of the Disboards that tells all about it if you want a peek!!
I have never had such a tidle wave on that ride! We took a peek at the seven dwarfs out meeting guests, they looked so cool!! Too bad the line was over an hour long to meet them!
