Thank you for Joining in! Yes their Haircuts were great! I keep telling the boys that they need a hair cut and that means we need to go back to DISNEY! , Cuz they don't cut hair up here like they do in Disney! My Dh just gives me the EYES.
Yes they were pretty excited about the DS unfortunately we lost one over the February break and then another one is broken the screen is just barely hanging on, DD is the only one that has hers in good shape!

I know "The Eyes" well...anytime the word Disney comes out of my mouth those eyes miraculously appear!

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

Really enjoying your TR love the pictures. We were there 12/24/07 and had a wonderful time. It's so nice to recall all the wonderful memories. I am here in Syracuse and I'm looking out at trees cover with snow. I'm glad you all had a wonderful time.

I am not to far from you about 5 hours northeast! Enjoy! I hope all you snow is melting!

So as we left off we were on Aladdin. We end our ride and headed for POC! As we were walking we noticed a crowd gathering for a Pirate tutorial. All of a sudden who is in front of me, But JACK SPARROW! I fumble with my camera and can't get a picture, I stutter and say OH OH MY GOOOODDDD there he is!

The boys are made honorary Pirates! Captain Jack couldn't get over the boys hair! He told zac that his hair looked like it was on fire! Zac replied Yeah of course! and poor TyTy Jack told no one to go near him because he didn't know what was in hair and he might be contagious.

After our delightful trip through POC we ran into Peter Pan I have never met Peter so we (rather I) was excited!

Off to splash mountain! I have a picture of us going down but for some reason it isn't on photobucket so I will post it another time!

Up next....... Woody's hoe down parade? I really don't know what it was called

 

[scottny]

great update and pics. I liked the pirate tutorial, very fun.

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

So we were on splash mountain when we left off. The line was lone but it wasn't bad we talked to family member via cell phone, it was christmas day after all! I guess while we had been in POC it rained! I didn't get wet till splash mountain. It did rain again while we were in line for splash mountain but we were under cover! We left there and the kids wanted to do Thunder mountain but the wait was long and it was getting close to ADR time, so we got FAST PASSES. Not good until 9:45 -10:45. so we headed down towards the restaurant and walked into a couple of shops. The kids were looking at pins (I don't think I like the Pin trading thing.. spend LOTS OF MONEY and someone trades for a cheap pin no logic to me) I said no you aren't getting a pin!.... I was the MEAN MOMMY! We heard music and noise coming from the road so we stepped out and there was Woody and Jessy and the Horse! So they asked for adults or OLDER children, so DD goes out.... she like to think that we pushed her out there but she went willingly. Next thing I know she is wearing a cowboy hat and line dancing! here are a few pictures she is the one in the pink and black pirate sweatshirt.

Can you tell that she rode splash montain look at the seat of her pants!

It was cute and she had a BLAST even though she said she would DIED if anyone knew she did that.... I think it will make a great yearbook photo! So only my DD had been picked to so something in this show until the end when woody called for all the kids to come into the circle and they were made honorary sheriff's::cop: FUNNY the were also honorary Pirates too! THE GOOD AND THE BAD ! I don't have any pictures of that it was so busy and people were flipping out because the could see their children so it was hard to get any good shots! As you can see I always have a head in my way or they would just turn as the camera went off! it wasn't a good photo op!

Up next dinner at LLT!

 

[scottny]

I thought it was a cute little show/parade?

great pics.

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

This was a dinner that I had spent a month researching and Planning. After all it was Christmas dinner! I left messages on the boards for ideas and I got quite a few but the one I got the most was for LTT. So I looked at menus and looked again, I went with the crowd and chose LTT. We were about a half hour ealy and I checked in but she said that it was to early to check in come back in a half hour. HUH?. So we went and walked around the Christmas shoppe and sat around for a bit! A half hour goes by and we go back. I check in, and we sat for about 10 minutes no bad I don't think. I didn't hear them say The Ero family from NEW YORK all I heard was Ero and I jumped up. we were seated in the first dining room on the left right in front of the doorway. Not a great location but hey I wasn't going to be fussy. AGAIN I felt out of place! Everyone was nicely dressed and most people matched, I guess we matched we all had on pirate gear. We were wet and grimy.
The characters were great! Goofy was sooooo GOOFY! He fell up the stairs and down the stairs! He would hide in the corner when he went near a little child who he had scared. He would sneak up on people. Chip and Dale thought it was great that Tyler knew who they were by name and he had the proper names with each character! ( mom had disney character 101 with him)
The food was average I wasn't impressed, but I am not much of a turkey person unless it has been deep fried, I love it deep fried. I loved the pork that and the mac n cheese. Of course we had the chef come out because of the diabetes and DH allergies to nuts. Chef said that there wasn't much he could tell us for Zac but he told DH to stay away from the DESSERT, this is DH favorite course. They told him that they would send out a bowl of ice cream. Wait to you see the bowl of ice cream!

So on with the Pictures!

Dh got a bowl of icecream the same size as the whole table got!

Here is the great apple dessert the rest of us had!

 

[scottny]

I have wanted to eat there but have been hesitant for the mixed reviews I have read.
The characters looks like fun.

Great pics and update.

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

As we left LTT they were starting to rope off for spectro magic, as we have now been in WDW for 4 days and have yet to see it we decided that would would stay and watch! We sat right on the porch to LTT. there were a few people in front of us but we still could see!
Here are some pictures of it they aren't the best either got with flash and you couldn't see the light or without the flash and it seemed blurry!

great update and pics.

the pics look really good.

fix the date in the title for updates . it is saying 3/26

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

After spectro magic parade we started back up towards Thunder mountain. We walked through store all the way and end up in one of the stores that is in a tree I think it's called the briar patch? we were in there for about a half hour when we heard this loud bang! and everything shook! We all looked at each other and said the fire works! so we ventured out and watched the fireworks, the boys were tired so they crashed against the store

The Fireworks are beautiful but not as magical as they would be from in front of the castle!

We decided after multiple many trips to the bathroom(When Zac's blood sugar is high he pee's A LOT!) that there wasn't many people on Thunder Mountain so we would ride. I think we were in line all of 10 minutes.

Right after we finished the First ride my DS5 was crying and the CM asked if had not like the ride and he said Yes I want to ride it AGAIN!!!! So it is now time for our fast passes so we jump right back into line I think we had a longer wait in the FP lane because fireworks were over and more and more people were coming on to the ride. So we rode AGAIN! Now it is 10 p.m. and we are tired, I said lets get on the train that brings you right to the front of the park. HHHHMMMMM it closed at 9 p.m. I guess we have to walk!
HMM that means that we have to walk past the Dole Whip place! Lets try to get a Dole whip Float! I got it right this time!!! Here we are eating our nighttime snack!
If any one is wondering what sam has in her hand it is Zac's insulin shot! this was very hard to judge the carbs in this because one it is ice cream and the other there is juice in it .. His sugar will be high!

DS5 can fall asleep any where as you know he started to doze off here on the wall. He didn't want his Float and We were all full so DD ate it!

there was some music playing in the background so grandma and Ty were dancing! Sam thought they were nuts. I thought it was cute!

Here is the Castle all light up I got misty eyes every time I saw it!

 

[kimbac3]

THAT is what Disney is all about!! How cute!!!

 

[scottny]

Looks like a magical evening all the way through. The pics were great. seems like good times were had. and I saw dole floats.

great update.

 

[ILMICKEY]

What an absolute great Christmas you had!! I can't imagine a better way to spend it. Well I can, but I'm sure Disney wouldn't let just me in there that day.

I am so bummed I missed Jack Sparrow last time. This is number one on my list of things to do on my next trip. He is soooooo hot! Even if it isn't Johnny.

It seemed like it was a really long day for you guys. I can't believe the way you are cranking out reports!! I want to get my TR done. I need to start working on all my new planning.

I loved all your pictures. I think the wavy spectro lights are pretty cool. Oh, and your mother and son dancing is just priceless. That's the way Disney intended us to behave there.

 

[randy4au]

Stephanie, you have a nice looking family! Enjoying the trip report. Many great photos. Looks like y'all had a great trip.

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

So as I forgot to mention the kids and Dh got more gifts than just the DS's. The kids got a trip to the BIBBIDI BOBBIDI Boutique. And Dh has always wanted to eat the the Hoop-De- Doo Review so I secretly bought us all dinner there!
We wake this beautiful day and decide this is going to be a down day the kids get ready for the pool.Dm and I get ALL the laundry! Dh and kids head for the pool and DM & I get stuck with the laundry.

So after four loads of laundry and $20.00 we head back to the cabin and put everything away.
We had ressies for the BBB for 1:00 p.m.So we head for the boat launch. Here are the boys playing on the beach.

I took these picture because I wanted to go parasailing, and figured I could tell everyone it was me I figured it is so far away no one couldn't tell it wasn't me!

Here are the boys waiting to go in. Note we did the BBB in the castle. It was awesome!

They boys had the same FGMIT(Fairy GodMother in training) which was nice I didn't have to spread myself all over the place.

Tyler went first , my poor little guy was falling asleep and his FGMIT kept saying don't fall asleep or you'll end up with lipstick and nails on!!!! He stayed awake!

Up next Mr. Zac gets ready and he lays down the law No glitter No sparkles NO mickey heads No NOTHING BUT PAINT!

Up Next Sam's day at the BBB!
