3rd Times a Charm! Mar. 8-14..lots of pics

I forgot to mention that I had periodically beeped DH and told him what we were doing. The last time he was very grumpy, and I asked why, :headache: and he said because he was trying to sleep. LOL! Well that’s when I found out that he was back at the hotel and not sitting on some random bench, LOL! :flower3: OOPS! :rolleyes1

So our mission was Jasmine. She was not out. I asked a CM in a nearby store and they said she would be out at 4. Well we had dinner at 4:20, so I told Claire we would try again after dinner. :lovestruc

We kind of worked our way towards Crystal Palace and then took a sit down break. Well Claire jumped out of the stroller and ran around while I rested. LOL! :banana: I took this picture. The screen is missing. :scared1: We took pictures here previous years and there was a basket of fake apples and a screen.

Here is 2007

And this year. I wish I would’ve made Claire stand there.

When we sat down, I beeped Skip but he didn’t answer. The parade was going down Main street at this time, so I figured if he was in the park he couldn’t hear anyways.

Not long after he beeped me and said he was in front of Crystal Palace. I told him where we were, which was just over the bridge basically and he came over and sat with us. We told him what we did, and what we still wanted to do.

For Claire that was swimming and Jasmine!

We headed over to CP and I checked us in and then we waited.

I think we got called in a few minutes before our scheduled time. When you walk in they have these cute topiaries.

We were seated by the window and had a nice view.

We saw that we had JUST missed Eeyore, so I knew it would be awhile till he got around. The good thing was that the place was not full at this point.

Pooh was just about 2 tables away and then the “march” started up. Claire joined in the fun.

Aw! I love all the pics! Claire is such a beautiful little girl.

I have to comment on Skip's tractor too. The racing cows on the front of it made me giggle a bit... :goodvibes I love the pics of Claire all glammed out with her fingers in her ears, reminds me of rich ladies who go to the horse tracks or something!

She has those big head phone things to cover her ears, but I'm not sure if they were sitting next to her, or if we had left them back at the truck. LOL! She usually will wear them, but maybe it was messing up her do, so she decided to do the fingers. I can't remember anymore.
We were in Tomah Wisconsin for a pull and the day before Sjip had a break, so Claire and I drove 2 1/2 hours over to Minnisota and went to the mall of america. We met a girl there who I talk to online on a different forume and spent the afternoon with her. It was so fun. And then later on Claire went to Libby Lu and got dolled up. Of course she wanted to wear it day after day after day! LOL! :cloud9:
 

Chimere would LOVE this picture! She loves to see those kids on leashes. :rotfl2: This one is even funnier because he has on Mickey ears too. I wish they made a leash that could hold baby DS in. :lmao: I hate CP but it looks like ya'll had fun! The topiairies are my favorite thing of all.
 

Enjoying this TR so much! :yay:

Thanks so much. I will finish it, I promise. I am trying to work out more, because I am just becoming a major computer potatoe. I've rod the exercise bike 20 mintues today and walked 3 miles on the tread mill, so I got a start at least today.

Good for you! I've been meaning to do the same thing, hoping to get started this weekend, but I've come down with something and I have no energy. I'll just have to put it off again! ;) Hopefully I'll get working out again soon. Good luck to you!
 
So Pooh was at our table soon after the March was over. He was a big hit. I have always had a soft spot for Pooh, which I think I have mentioned before. He was my favorite as a kid and the one character I saw when we came when I was little. :love:

I ran up and got some food between Pooh had Piglet. I gave strict instructions to Skip to beep me on the Nextel when he was 2 tables away. LOL! But I got back in time.

We set up spinning Minnie so she could view all the action too.

Skip kept telling me to look at the guy at the table across from us. This guy looked like the banjo player at the Hoop Dee Doo review. Exactly like him. So I finally asked if he was “him” and he wasn’t. LOL! They were from Pennsylvania so I doubt he would travel daily for that gig. LOL!

They were a really nice family though and the banjo player look alike offered to take our picture.

Great trip report. Counting down the days til our next trip. Claire is adorable. :cheer2:

A little off topic: What program do you use to enhance your pictures? They are great, especially the ones that the color is muted.
 
Claire looks thrilled to see Pooh Bear bless her.

Really love your TR Jen, will be sad when its over :(

How many weeks were you in Disney again???? :confused3:confused3 2 or 3? :lmao:

Great pictures as always. I like the one of all of you at the table... Claire is doing a nonchalant pose!!! She is so cute!

Happy Mothers Day!!
 
Happy Mother's Day! Thanks for all your pictures and your report, I've really been enjoying it. I have really loved looking at your Crystal Palace pictures, I booked it yesterday for breakfast my first full day at WDW! 8:20 so I get in before the park opens. :banana:

You're a great photographer by the way, did you ever take any courses?
 
Claire has the most infectious smile.:cutie:

Thank you

I took a few classes at our Art Museum. 2 on digital and one on black and white film. I also have read a few books. I have a long way to go yet to do what I would like to do with my pictures.
 
Happy Mother's Day!!!

I'm sad the trip report is going to end soon, but since you've been updating less, it should stretch out until about the time I start my pre-trip report. :woohoo:

I wish it was that many. LOL! Only 6 nights.

Yes, I noticed that pose she did. She must've been getting tired of posing. LOL!
