I may have missed your sendoff, but just in case you see this today
Have a fantastic, magical trip, my friend!!!
Can't wait to hear about the adventures that are awaiting you
Loved the update Brenda... Yes, I agree - some of the most quiet times off the beaten path are some of my favorite memories, as well.
So... The Aunt Bee's cookbook - has anything been made from it yet? It looks like a fun cookbook to have.
Love the photo of the two of you in front of the hat.
I hope you have a marvelous trip! I have soooo many Disfriends down there right now... Makes me really wish I could be there with you all.
D~
I love the sound of your lovely relaxing afternoon in DHS, I completely agree that those are sometimes the best moments!
I'll say it again, have an amazing trip! I can't wait to see some photos on Facebook!

Great update! I love the writers stop, it's such a nice place to relax and enjoy a little quiet time. I must try one of those carrot cake cookies the next time I go -- can you believe I have never had one?
You are probably getting ready for the airport right now, safe travels and we can't wait to read more when you get back!

Caught up! Wow, Em is a great colorer! you are just never too old. Especially when it's coloring princesses. Also, wow Brian, that is not tracing. So gorgeous!! Meeting the head cheese!! I have to every time. I love sorcerer mickey. As always, you guys are adorable!
First time riding toy story in 2 years?! Wow. I don't think I could do that.
Yay for relaxing afternoons in disney! Those really are good times to just take it slow and take it all in. Especially at the writer's stop. That place is so cute.
I keep forgetting to try that carrot cake cookie. It looks scrumptious!
Have a safe and fantastic trip!
Brenda..yet another great update! You are absolutely right about those quiet moments seem to be the most special. I have some wonderful memories traveling with my Mom, and the things I remember most are our laughs on the way to the airport that continue to be private jokes with us that still give us the giggles. I cherish those memories with my Mom, and enjoy making more. In fact we have a little weekend trip planned next weekend to Asheville, NC to go to the Biltmore Estates (I live about 2 hours from there). I'm looking forward to it!!! It will just be me and my Mom which is very rare for us since I'm a Mommy now!
Hope you enjoy your trip and safe travels!
Hope you have a wonderful holiday vacation!! Enjoy all the decorations and Christmas activities!!! I sure hope you have the chance to do some resort hopping and get to check them all out. Everything looks so different all decorated for Christmas!!
Great update! I love touring DHS on empty afternoons. It's really the best way to do it! And luckily it seems like we happen upon it on a really slow day at least once every trip.
Hope you have a fantastic Christmas trip! I can't wait for that TR too.
All caught up !! I hope you enjoy your trip !!

Sorry I didn't get here yesterday. Have a magical 10 days. Can't wait to read about them.
Great update. I don't know how you do it. Putting in an update so close to leaving. I would have been sleeping or trying to.
You are so right - sometimes its the simple things that make the best memories.
Coloring is so relaxing! She looked so content sitting there with the kidlets.
It was great meeting you guys last night!!! You were my first meeting of fellow disboards peeps!
Have a great trip!!!
Brenda just read the first 50 pages... The Bills game is out of hand at least your report is enjoyable...
I hope you're having a wonderful time!! Can't wait to hear about the rest of this trip and the one you're on now!
Hi Brenda!!
Just wanted to pop by and say I hope you're having an amazing trip to the World and having an awesome time with so many Dismeets!!!
Hope you are having a great trip!!!
Hi Brenda! Haven't commented in soooo long but I just got all caught up! (I hate when life cuts into dis time!)
Too much to comment on specifically so I'll just let you know I've enjoyed all the updates!
Hope you are having a fabulous time on your trip now... Gets me thinking, I REALLY need to plan a holiday trip.
I love that Em sat down and colored with the kids. I enjoy coloring myself.
Great pictures at the Writers Shop and throught the Studios (those clouds didn't look so good though).
I'm so glad we got a few minutes together before Mark and I headed to the airport on Sunday. Thanks again for the goodie bag and, more importantly, the hug and friendship.
Finally all caught up! Love how you and Em went to the book store inside HS! And my classes are going well. This is the last week of the fall semester. Have a wonderful trip!!!

What a lovely update! Sometimes those moments in Disney that are the best are those that don't translate well into a trip report! Lol.
Sounds lovely! And a carrot cake cookie is always a good thing!! Wasn't my favorite treat, but I'd have it again!
So glad that you guys are off having a blast in Disney right now!! So awesome that we got to meet up and I can't wait to hear all about everything!
What - they have books at the Writer's Stop, too? This is the first I've heard about books. It has always been the goodies that make the trip reports.
DH and I had a very relaxed trip last week. It was the first time in all the years of going to WDW that we stopped to watch the shows and other events that happened as we walked by them, and skipped all but a few rides. We caught the castle show for the first time ever and DH wondered when they started having that show. I told him it had been there forever, he just never wanted to see it. That fp+ for TSMM was golden. But all in all, we went on maybe 8 rides, and it was wonderful. The biggest development was that DH really does like having an ADR after all, instead of always being "spontaneous."
I hope you had a great trip.
Wow! What a great trip. I just started reading. Thanks for sharing!!!

Hi Brenda! Got a little behind because of finals, but I hope you are having a fabulous trip in WDW!
I LOVE coloring. I colored a Duffy in August while my sister met Alice and it was one of the most relaxing parts of my trip.
I hope you guys tried the drawing class! Normally I only draw stick figures but I have done it the past few trips and I really enjoy it.
That sounds like a great afternoon at the Writer's Stop. I'm not really a carrot cake person but I've heard so many things about that cookie!
Hmm, now you two sure do look familiar.
Brenda, obviously I have to take a moment here to thank you SO VERY MUCH for spending some of your busy schedule with me. I will never be able to repay you for the amazing Illuminations Cruise and it was such a supreme pleasure to meet and spend time with you and Em. I will never forget it.
Getting back to this TR, I just love the statement about the little moments that mean so much. I've learned to not race from ride to ride and show to show and just enjoy the Disney moments, and the recent trip was all about that for me.
And YAY, I actually got to see a Bo photo happening!!!!!
I am so bad at this Dis thing. I was surprise that I wasn't further behind. For a moment I forgot you were in the world. I knew you were there due to the fact that when I say a message I thought you were back. It wasn't you though. Enjoy your last two days (I think that is what you have left.) Any ways look forward to hearing about your trips.
Just letting you know that I've still been following along! I hope you had (or are still having) a great time!

Vinny would have been in the hospital if a duck did that to him.
Very nice Snow White.
All caught up.
How lovely that you got to meet up for dinner with Dean! He sounds so interesting, I bet he made for an awesome dinner guest.
Let's face it, if you hadn't bought the rain gear, it would have rained harder. :rofl:
Glad you had a great meal.
Last but not least, welcome home!
