Wow how cool having Indies brother meet you, the boys look so happy!
It was so very cool! We all LOVED every second with him!
Wow what an amazing surprise, I love that Idaho Jones came to visit.
The surprise of his visit went over even better then I had hoped. Nobody had a clue but they were all totally taken with him! I was so proud of myself for not spilling the beans!
Oh my! Jay, it was just a wonderful surprise for your guests who had no expectations, and the food looks spectacularly yummy.
I have to say, though, you handled the venue change FAR better than I would have under the circumstances. Surely they could have put up a tent top for a shower?
I figured what good would it do. I really was very disappointed though...I had my heart set on the outdoor luncheon. I didn't want to let that color my day though. So, I chose to focus on the air conditioning (ha ha ha) and let the rest go. What I couldn't change wouldn't help me to be upset about. I think it would have been easier to take if there had actually been rain during our luncheon.
In the end, nobody else knew to draw the comparison. Compared to dinner at a sit down place in the midst of other guests, the private meal with our own personal servers and menu made just for us rocked. That's the standard I tried to make myself compare it to, not the beautiful outdoor picnic I had envisioned (cause it did pale in comparison). I guess I just have a reason to do it again!
Talk about a dream, special for everybody!
All the food looks really tasty and Idaho Jones sure looks like his brother!
I can't get over your idea to have your boys favorite adventurer burst in! This is really exciting to read
The boys were so floored. We all were (even though dh and I knew he was coming). He played it off perfectly and really looked the part. He even had a stubbled face! He fit the part to a 't'.
The food looks amazing. We just got done eating, but after looking at that I think I could eat again.
I literally screamed when I saw the Mickey watermellons. That had to be one of the most special Disney Days.
Can't wait to read more.
I think I let out a happy yip. I was so excited to see Mickey in our meal!
Loving the party!!!
I can't wait to hear the rest!!!!
Loved the luncheon surprise! Too bad it was moved inside. I agree with you the setting just doens't seem right. I loved the look of the patio setup with the beach you showed earlier in the pics
. Anyway the food looks yummy and the kids look like they are having so much fun.
At least I got pictures of what the set up would have been.
What a great surprise!! I've been waiting so patiently to hear what it was and it was worth the wait
I can't even imagine how excited your kids were to see their dear friends and then for Idaho Jones to show up!
The food from your luncheon looks amazing too, it was making me hungry!
I wish I had a plate with the steak, shrimp and pasta salad right now!
How very cool with Idaho visiting the kids and all. I would have been upset over the location but what can you do. No one noticed so no harm done. The food looked fabulous. Mmmmmmm. I cant wait to hear the rest!!
That was the thing, there was nothing I could do...other then chose, roll with the change and still have fun or endure the change and waste my dream day being upset. Still rots that we had to move inside.
Yes!!! An update! I was glad to see your report!
Ok, first I must say that the food looks amazing! I am with you, the pasta salad looks soooo good! And I am way impressed with the Mickey head watermelon slices!! Idaho Jones, awesome surprise!
Kudos to you for rising above what could have been super frustrating... you handled the venue change very smoothly. It would seem that you are quite good at "making lemonade" when others may have been stuck on the lemons.... 
Ha ha ha, lemonade is one of my favorite drinks!
Great food pictures! Everything looked super yumm, especially the steaks and watermelon!
It's too bad they had to change the area, but you did handle it really well and I'm proud of you!
And Idaho!! OMG, that was exciting! I bet the kids, and probably the adults, too, were holding their breath waiting to see what might happen next -- you are just a tricky little girl!!!
Such great friends -- you all deserved it after all you went through. To really enjoy that together!
Can't wait for more!
It was so exciting! I thought I might hyper ventilate BEFORE he came in (knowing he was going to be coming through the doors any minute). The kids were all completely taken with him.
I will be posting our "after luncheon time" next.
I just found your trip report and it's wonderful. I can't wait to read the next installment. Oh, and your boys are so cute...and your little baby just looks so happy all of the time.
I can't wait to hear about the rest of your day. I beleive a 
was involved, right?
That's one of my worst nightmares. 
Notice the only wetness of any sort was coming from the showers.
