1 Child and 10 Adults--A GG to Celebrate DD's 4th Bday :) TR Link is Posted

[wlwilliams9]

Great ADRs, Stephanie!! We've eaten at the Plaza a couple of times. They have good food and it's a great place to have lunch and take a break on a hot day. The restaurant is small, so we usually have to wait to be seated even with a reservation, but I think you will enjoy it!

Emily has been going to the Plymouth-Canton Schools preschool for the last two years now so we will continue to send her there. She is at Hoben, 2 afternoons a week this year and will be at Dodson, 3 afternoons a week next year. She loves school and wants to go everyday, "even Saturday and Sunday", she says! Where are you thinking of sending Lilian? Does she go to school now?

Can't wait for more PTR!!

Your ADRs look great!

We are trying Donald's Safari Breakfast too. I have heard great things about Akershus and 1900 Park Fare is awesome.

You are going to love the early BBB appointment. You should be done about 8:30 and will have some time to take photos of the little princess before the park opens.

Your ADR's look great Stephanie!! We are eating at Donald's Safari Breakfast for our trip so I will let you know all about it! My Mom LOVES afternoon tea at the GF! I have looked at the menu and the child selection looks like fun too!! I think Lilian will LOVE it!! It will be such a special thing to do with all the ladies!!! I will be excited to hear about 1900 Park Fare, as Helen gets older I think this one would be great!!

Our DD really loved Donald's Safari Breakfast. She was so excited to finally meet Daisy! The food is regular buffet breakfast foods, but the juice is super yummy. The kids get to do a little parade around the tables with the characters, but my DD didn't want to join in. They also take your picture before you're seated and it's available for purchase. It's definately a fun way to start the day!

ADRs look great! I'm so happy you're going to try TH! I've never eaten at the other places except for Coral Reef. Did you request a table next to the aquarium glass?

She will also be getting the My Disney Girl she would have gotten at the MDGPPTP either the morning of her birthday or I will give it to her at the Tea, which is what I am leaning towards at the moment. I can order her the redheaded doll now. :

Your ADR's look wonderful! You must be so excited! I had a question. What is a MDGPPTP? I have a little girl so I wondered.

 

[Sleepingbooty]

Hey Rebecca! I must have been updating while you were posting! The list is posted.

Oops, I missed it!

The list looks good - I've only eaten at one of your choices - Coral Reef. The rest would all be new to me.

About the Plaza, although I've never eaten there - I've never heard anything but good reviews of it.

 

[Charlefours]

Looks great! I have only heard rave reviews of Akershus and 1900 Park Fare. If Bella was the only child I was traveling with, we would have done them along with CRT. The tea party will be a lot of fun, too! Just think, only 180 more days!!!

I posted this on FB but I would love to see what patterns you have bought. I bought the package on YCMT with the Portrait Peasant, Patchwork Twirl, and Stripwork Jumper, and the Simply Sweet is what I used for the Tiana dress. They are all by Carla C. I am also thinking about getting the A Line and Easy Fits. They rave about all of her patterns on the Disboutiquers thread. And you will have to post pics once you get going!!!

Hi Kayce! I know I had not gotten a chance to send you the links of the ones I have gotten. Without further ado, here they are:

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=41571980

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=42791800

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=42795524

I am still waiting on both of the skirt e-books to arrive in my inbox, hopefully anytime. I looked at some of Carla C's patterns too. The ones from Etsy seem great too! I hope to do one of the skirts this Friday/weekend--I will post pictures once I get going.

We briefly considered CRT but we want to save that for another time. We were not overly fond of it the last time we went . Another time probably! I am really excited about Akershus and 1900 PF.

Hi Wendy,

Oh good, I am glad someone reading along has been to the Plaza--I have read some good things about it so I am hopeful. With being one of the first ADRs of the day, I hope we get in fairly quickly but if not, we are fine with waiting some.

We are enrolling Lilian into the PCCS preschool program for the first time this summer and fall. Well, summer is only a go if there are enough signed up for it. She is super excited for it. Our first choice is Miller since we can walk there and our second choice is Hoben.

I have more posts planned--just need to write them!

Great ADR's Stephanie! Your pattern choices are cute too. I dabble in sewing as well. I'm making crayon roll ups, water bottle slings and a couple of dresses for our trip. It's so fun to be creative.

 

[Charlefours]

Stephanie--Your ADRs look great!

I think the afternoon tea for all the ladies is a great treat. That's very sweet of you to do!

Thanks Michelle! We are happy with the choices we got. I hope the tea is a great experience--I having invites made for them.

 

[Charlefours]

Congrats on all your ADR's!!! I can make mine in 10 days and I'm so excited!

Thank you Meghan--it is so exciting when ADR time hits (at least to me ).

Our DD really loved Donald's Safari Breakfast. She was so excited to finally meet Daisy! The food is regular buffet breakfast foods, but the juice is super yummy. The kids get to do a little parade around the tables with the characters, but my DD didn't want to join in. They also take your picture before you're seated and it's available for purchase. It's definately a fun way to start the day!

I am really excited about TH--I have heard rave reviews over it. They get terribly behind though according to others so I definitely knew I wanted one before the park opens. We won't push DD to join in the activities but we will encourage her.

Your ADRs look great!

We are trying Donald's Safari Breakfast too. I have heard great things about Akershus and 1900 Park Fare is awesome.

Thanks! We are happy with them. We hope TH is really good and 1900 PF and Akershus were two of our top choices. We think they will be a great way to eat with the princesses without having to use two TS credits like we would if we tried CRT.

I am really excited about the BBB appointment--I think DD is going to have such a great time. And, empty Main Street pictures I am really excited to experience MK that way.

Thanks Beth! I am really excited about it. I cannot believe you leave in just over a month!!!!! How exciting!! I will be looking forward to reading about your experience at TH. I think the menu at GF's tea looks really good--even the child's choices. I am going to let the ladies order whatever they would like. I know strawberries and cream are a definite for DD and I--we love strawberries!! I think 1900 PF is the one I am looking forward to the most. I will definitely you know about it.

 

[Charlefours]

ADRs look great! I'm so happy you're going to try TH! I've never eaten at the other places except for Coral Reef. Did you request a table next to the aquarium glass?

Thanks Jenny! Your TR was one of the few that really sold me on TH! I think it will be a great experience. We have eaten at CR too but DH was firm about wanting to go back. We did request a table by the glass but we need to re-request it when we check in at the podium. With it being an early dinner, we should hopefully not have any issues with getting the request.

 

[Charlefours]

Your ADR's look wonderful! You must be so excited! I had a question. What is a MDGPPTP? I have a little girl so I wondered.

Hi Cathy! Thank you so much--we are happy with what we were able to book. The only one I compromised on really was MM because I wanted to eat at the Plaza eventually.

The MDGPPTP is the My Disney Girl's Perfectly Princess Tea Party--sorry to abbreviate it but it is such a mouth full to say and type! If you click on the words, it will take you to the Disney page about it. I hoped to link you to the doll too but the Disney store's website does not want to load at the moment.

I think it will be a great experience to do with DD in a year or so when it is just the three of us who will go then.

I think we were posting at the same time Rebecca. Thank you! We are happy. We have eaten at CR, that was specifically the one DH wanted to go back to this trip.

I think Plaza is one of the restaurant that flies under the radar. I have only read one or maybe two people's reports on it so I am hoping we have a great experience at it.

 

[Charlefours]

Great ADR's Stephanie! Your pattern choices are cute too. I dabble in sewing as well. I'm making crayon roll ups, water bottle slings and a couple of dresses for our trip. It's so fun to be creative.

Thanks Leanne! I did not you dabbled in sewing. You will definitely be posting pictures of what you do right? Please!!!! I want to make a crayon roll up too--I came across one pattern for it but I want to search for another one to compare. Hmm...water bottle slings...that is another idea to consider It can be quite addicting.

I think you'll really like TH. You're going early so that's definitely a good thing! We had an early reservation and when we walked out around 9:30, the line to check-in was madness! The juice is really good, make sure you have some!!

I'm sure you'll have no problem getting the request. My friend Staci (stacikristine on DIS) had a table with her DH right next to the glass and a large sea turtle hung out by their table the entire time. The downside was that people kept snapping pictures of it! Kind of annoying when you're trying to eat!
