[WrightFamily06]

BBB pictures are beautiful DD & I are still in love with Claire's Belle dress , maybe one day I will break down and buy DD one . LOL

So glad you found the boots to go with her Mary Poppins outfit , can't wait to see pictures of Claire in it !

The Pinocchio pictures are adorable , I love the backdrop they have in his meet & greet area wish it still would have been there when we were there

Now we just have to wait for the Mary Poppins outfit to arrive! I'm so excited to see these boots. I have lace-up black ones that I got at a thrift store for a costume that match Alice & her Mary's nanny outfit, but not her Jolly Holiday outfit. I also bought some green Peter Pan shoes.

Coincidentally, on that trip, someone who was with me bought about 18 pairs of white Go-Go boots... so as you can see, I was restrained.

18 pairs?

18 pairs?

And guess who had to carry them? Me.

That's why I said "someone I know" and not "my friend".....

I've been reading the budget board alot lately and have found some great deals. This is one I found this week....50% off all clearance toys at K-mart right now.

Now I don't normally shop at K-mart, but I had read about this sale, so I searched online for one in my area. Claire went to a friends house today so I took a trip into town while she was gone.

I can't beleive the deals I found, and it was an empty store. No one knows about this sale and I got sooo much. Lets just say Christmas and her b-day is pretty much done!

Hi Jen, I just found your TR yesterday and have been reading it like a mad woman. It caught my eye b/c we were there w/ family @ POP the exact week you all were (March 7-14th). We were staying right across from you beside the Play-Dough people. It was really funny reading your TR b/c we probably crossed paths about 10 times that week. You all were on Splash Mountain on the 8th when Wishes was going off. SO WERE WE!!! and we were also at the hippy dippy pool the night when everyone thought that space shuttle was launching. you can actually see my hubby and nephew in one of your pics at the pool. Too hilarious and it is a SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL!!! just thought i'd comment and say hello! Claire is just adorable! I have truly enjoyed following you on your journey & secretly looking for myself in your pics, hehehe!

What a small world! Which picture are your family in? you must do a TR just for the fact that I want to see if we are in any of your pics. LOL! but of course I would love to read it as well. That is too cool we were on SM at the same time. Wouldn't it've been a hoot to know if we were in the same bot? LOL! Though I honestly can;t rmemeber even where we sat, let alone who was in it...though I remember some teen girls in it I beleive.

[that's nice]

I don't think they are running any specials like that over here at our K-Mart. I'll have to keep my eyes open!!!

Great job saving all that money!!!!!!!

Actually it's all Kmarts. It's not even widley known in the sotre, but all the clearance is 50% off. I scanned everything and alot came up cheaper than even 50% off what they were marked down too. The signs are really small in the aisles and had I not known before I went, I don't think I would've noticed it there.

 

[meanmom121]

Man that's some awesome shopping. Good going girl. I wish we had kmarts. I'd be getting a jump on Christmas shopping

 

[jenseib]

Nothing special. Just the kids playing. I didn't take any of fireworks, I just enjoyed those.

Michael was hiding in the house when I had my camera out, and I never took it back out agin to get any more pics later.

I have been in a slump lately, so haven't done alot in posting pics here. I'll try and get more up. I have more of Pop and other fun park stuff, just need to get back into the groove.

 

[WrightFamily06]

Cute pictures of the kiddies on the 4Th , the colors are soo pretty ! What camera do you have now if you don't mind me asking I know u said u use to have the Cannon XTI and now that my Cannon XT is broke I'm looking to buy a new one ?

 

[jenseib]

Your welcome Thanks for sharing what camera you got . I'm steering clear of Cannon this time and also Sony , that's the other camera that I have that doesn't work so hott. LOL
I'm just gonna buy something very inexpensive , that way when something goes wrong I can just toss it and not feel bad about the money I spent . LOL

 

[jenseib]

I had several lenses, so for me, it wasn't worth going to another brand at this point. I'd have to start all over.

 

[that's nice]

I like how you edited this pic! It looks really good!

 

[jenseib]

Thanks

 

[ellajeansmom]

Just wanted to say hi! and let you know I have officially subbed to your TR - I read a good amount of it when I was a lurker and planning our trip. I can't remember specifics but I know your TR helped with my planning Now I have a lot of catching up to do!

 

[jenseib]

Thanks for reading. And so glad anything I said or did helped in your planning. I am still working at posting more pics here from our trip, but I am moving much slower lately. I'm so behind in all the TR's I'm reading that I am neglecting my own too.
