WOW!! I wish we had stopped by One Man's Dream! Its definitely on the list for next year!! You and Michael should just pack your Halloween costumes so you can be prepared if you ever need to be sneaky!!

offtopic: Reminds me of the corn maze!! Me and Stephanie really wanted to scare the boys or pretty much just anyone, so we would break away from the rest of the group and hide in the corn and we kept calling it "stealth mode" and it was just so funny!! Once everyone caught on to us trying to sneak up on them, we were more obvious about it and would scream out "STEALTH MODE" and then quickly hide in the corn! )
Sorry you were disappointed with VotLM!! I can't wait to go see more shows!! You make me want to find a way to work it out! I was really scared about Landon not sitting still. But I bet he would LOVE the car show!! That just looks awesome!! Is it hotter the closer you sit because of the fire or could you not even feel that at all? You had really good seats!!
I'm glad you loved Sci-Fi! You got the same drink and entree as me! It was so good, right?! I'm glad you enjoyed it!! The theming there is so great!! I LOVE how Disney puts all their detail in the bathrooms too! I definitely don't think it was tmi to add that...but then again, you have to remember I took pictures in the bathroom of ESPN Club!
I bet it was so nice to in the hot tub at night!! My dad fell in love with that resort because of that when we walked past the pool to get to the Mara!! Its just great! I hope you went back!! Do you ever have any pics of it, or did you not bring your camera to the pool?
Can't wait for more!
You would LOVE One Man's Dream!! But make sure you go at a time when Landon is sleeping...

Haha!

Good idea! I still haven't showed you that picture...we were pretty sneaky looking! Add me on FB and you can see it!

That is too funny about you and Stephanie! I'm sure everyone got a kick out of it--but yall probably had the most fun!! I'll have to remember to whisper "STEALTH MODE!" next time we try to sneak back into One Man's Dream!

I'm SURE Landon would love LMA! He's so into cars--and he'd really be ready for it by next year! If I could pick two for you to go to, it'd be LMA and Beauty. Those are the best (in our opinion)--at least at DHS. Yeah, it's a little hotter if you sit closer, but it's not
that big of a difference. You can get better pictures closer up, though (more on that later

) Woo-Hoo!! Another Disney Twin thing!

That shake was really yummy--but it was almost too sweet. I should have stuck with chocolate. So true! I forgot you took pics at ESPN!

We were SOOO impressed with the theming everywhere! Isn't the pool FANTASTIC?! We just loved it! We didn't get a chance to try out the slide, but the pool and hot tub were great!

No, I didn't take my camera to the pool (at least I don't think I did...) because I didn't want it to get wet. I just took my phone and our room key. We were the only ones in the hot tub, and there were only about 20 people in the pool! I should have more before too long!
Ohhh I can't wait to see LMA with Chris! He's obsesseddddd with cars and he's going to love it. I didn't realize it was only shown like twice a day and we accidentally missed it last time so thanks for the pictures!
I'm glad you had a good experience at Sci-Fi! The Oreo shake looks yummmm! I can't believe thats on the
DDP!
We loved One Man's Dream!! Chris was sooo into it too. Glad you got a lot of time to spend in there, it's definitely worth it.
Thanks for the VotLM advice. We've never tried it and now won't bother until we have kids
The night vision animal viewing and hot tub both sound amazingggg! Hopefully its not too cold there in 10 days for us to try out the hot tub
You and Chris will LOVE LMA!!!

It's so good! I probably won't get to our "next time" watching it before your trip, so I'll go ahead and tell you that it's best if you sit a little closer than we were (since you won't have to worry about the heat as much this time of year). We went again and sat closer, and the pics turned out better! I'm betting it's going to be one of Chris's highlights of the entire trip! The shake was SO good! But it was a little sweet for me. It's so awesome--all of the shakes and stuff are just counted as a drink!

Michael and Chris sound like they'd get along--Michael really, really liked One Man's Dream too! It was one of our favorite things! Yeah, save your time with VotLM... It's funny, but there's a lot we're saving to do (either first time or again) until we have kids...

I don't know if they have night vision goggles at Kidani or not, but if they do, TRY IT! It's really cool. And if not, head on over to Jambo House! I'm sure it'll be good hot tub weather! And even if you have to bundle up a little to go out there, it'll be warm in the hot tub!
Another great update! Madison loved LMA when we saw it in January. She wanted to see it again in June, but we talked her out of it. It was SO hot in the stands in Jan (on a 75 degree day with hardly any humidity) that I couldn't even stand the thought of what it would be like in June!!!

Anyways....I don't think I've ever walked through One Man's Dream. I think that will have to wait until Maddie is a bit older or I will keep hearing about how she's so bored. I haven't seen The Little Mermaid in years!!! I actually really enjoyed it and Maddie has yet to see it. It was down for refurb in Jan and she didn't really have an interest in it in June. I'm so glad that you enjoyed Sci-Fi. It's one of my favs!!! (that oreo shake is awesome!)
Thanks! Isn't it such a cool show?! I'm glad Maddie liked it! That's so funny--a 75 degree day would be heaven for us!

It gets well over 100 here... That show does get pretty hot, though, since there isn't good covering on most of it. Maybe next time it'll be cool enough to see it again! One Man's Dream is REALLY neat, but you're right that Maddie might be bored now. Wait a few years, and then I bet she'd like it.

Some people really like VotLM, it's just not our favorite. I bet your family would like it a lot though! Sci-Fi is one of our favorites now too!

Isn't it sooo good?!
Yay! I love your updates...you have such great pictures. Well, you've given me anther two things for our 'next time' list. One Man's Dream and an Oreo Shake at Sci-Fi! I already wanted to go in One Man's Dream, and I think the kids will be old enough to appreciate it...maybe!

And you guys talking about that Oreo shake has got me craving one now...at 8:56am! There used to be a drive-in style place in my town that had greeeat Oreo Shakes, but it's been gone for about 10 years now...
I liked Voyage of the Little Mermaid when we saw it several years ago, but I think I was the only one. I don't really need to go back, though. DH, of course didn't like it. Our son was only 4 then, so he didn't really care up until he got wet...gosh, he hated stuff like that then. And even our daughter didn't like that part, ruined the whole thing for her, even though she had like it up until then. Oh, well..., right?
Thanks so much!

YEP! Both are a must! I think your kids are probably old enough to enjoy One Man's Dream. There's enough interesting things in there to keep them occupied. They have lots of little models of the different parks and things. Do you have Braum's? They have the greatest Cookies and Cream shakes!!!!

SO yummy! And Chick-fil-A has good ones too--maybe you could take a SUPER early lunch!

Yeah, I think VotLM is definitely for some people and not for others. Hm...You'd think your kids would have liked the water...

Maybe they'll be up for giving it another try in a few years!
