I am all caught up. great report so far.

I finally have SCOTTNY reading my post YEAH I think of you as a DIS GOD because I see you on almost every TR!

The pics are great.

Thanks I tried to get good shots of things , it was a new camera that I had gotten the day we left and I knew NOTHING about it! We I got home I read about how to use it and I was like oh I could have used that. Like it has a setting for food and fireworks,and video so I was bummed that I didn't know how to use it for the trip.

lying to Zac that u deleted the pic. then posting it.

Yeah Zac was out of sorts on the trip due to his blood sugar being so High! I showed him yesterday that I posted the picture and he was I thought you deleted it I was like NOPE! He said as long as it doesn't go in his scrapbook he doesn't care!

how r u liking the Mac? I was thinking of getting one.

As for the MAc I am loving it it is very simple and user friendly so far! My kids love it because it has a web cam built in and a program for it that makes you look like your on different things it is fun.

I had the moroccantini when I was there 2 months ago and it was so good.

I was tempted to get a real DRINK while I was in WS but I am such a light weight when it comes to alcohol I was afraid to get sick.

Looking forward to more.

Well I hope you continue to enjoy! I should have more today, in between loads of laundry

I like to get around.
I have had my camera almost a year and still learning.
at least he wasn't upset.
I do want a MAC.
I had the moraccontini then I had the fiesta margarita. Ooh did I feel fine.
In the completed section is my trip from January if u want to read it. It is LONG. I put page numbers on the first page to skip over the talk.
I am sure I will enjoy.

Thanks for coming over! The more the Merrier! Don't forget my pre trippie! to find out why we left the FREEZING SNOWY state of NEW YORK! JK If you don't have time don't worry about it!

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

I know that I have posted these Three pictures Before but I want to show how busy it was! This was 9 am. Oh and our ADR is for 9 am.... OOOPS!

This is the line around the Crystal Palace which we were about fifteen minutes late for.. not a problem stood outside for about 10 more minutes before being called I didn't think that was bad considering the crowds and that we were late!

Here is Zachary with TIGGER. Any of the Winnie the Pooh characters are a hit with any of my kids.

Sam and tigger

Ty was still a little unsure of tigger and I think Tigger got it! so he went slow.

Finally a HUG to a character I was so excited I had tears. This is a child who won't go near Santa or the Easter Bunny He will walk to the other side of the mall if he know that they are there!

Oh look at the smile ... He was so excited! I think we all were...he had been there for four days and he had avoided any and all characters!

Sam and Her DADDY!

Zac enjoying his breakfast!

Next up was Pooh with a big hug for Zachary!

A big hug from TY

Here comes PIGLET!

Up Next was EEYORE.. MY favorite I did get into these pictures too I think?

Some of the beautiful Flowers! Decorated for the winter!

Dining review: Crystal palace I love it here we did lunch the last time we came and I thought it would be special to do Christmas breakfast here! We of course loved the Characters. They are always so friendly. The one thing that I absolutely LOVED here was the Puffed french toast! I guess this was about the only receipt that we didn't keep, but I am thinking it was around 181.00 Got to love the DDP! No charge! How does that VISA commercial go 6 months making reservations, 181 for breakfast ... seeing my son finally hug a character ... PRICELESS!!!
Up Next HAIRCUTS! Main st. Barber shoppe and the Christmas Day Parade!

 

[scottny]

I love CP. we always do early around 8 am so we get to see the park basically empty.

 

[ILMICKEY]

Wow, you are slammin em out now!!

I loved your trip around World Showcase. I so hope you get to spend more time there when you go again!

I felt the same way at the GF. WAY out of place. But hey, those people will never see us again, right?

Looks like you had a great time at Park Fare. I love the step family. Don't you wish you could plaster all that pink and purple makeup on your face and get away with it. They looked great!

Oh, and your desserts, YUMMY!

I thought Epcot looked packed in your pics until I saw MAGIC KINGDOM ! Yikes. Do you know if it was full that day? I'm so glad you got Ty with the characters. It's weird how some kids just don't care for them.

Okay, now I'm off to read the last one. I'll be back!

 

[ILMICKEY]

Did Santa find us in WDW? He DID!!! Boy that santa is great! Santa did good to because it was only one gift to bring home!!!

Perfect!

Sam with hers DOESN'T SHE LOOK THRILLED!

She looks like you've been draggin her butt all over Disney World.

Poor kid!!

OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE I GOT A DS!

Good Job Mom!!

The kids looked adorable in their pirate costumes. I guess I missed this one, for some reason I thought it was the last one.

I'm so freakin confused???

Oh well, all caught up now!!

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

I love CP. we always do early around 8 am so we get to see the park basically empty.

I don't think that I could make it up and out that early, not with three kids! maybe when we do our honeymoon our very late honeymoon we may be able to do it!

Wow, you are slammin em out now!!

I had to play catch up from not having a computer for so long! I must say that I got some house work done in that week because I was so bored!

I loved your trip around World Showcase. I so hope you get to spend more time there when you go again!

I do to We even spent two days there, I think one day will be dedicated to just the WS next time and not half and half but is was so dam busy! all the fast passes were gone by noon. Then it was like a two hour wait

I felt the same way at the GF. WAY out of place. But hey, those people will never see us again, right?

Yeah we were all grubby from the park and there were people walking around in gowns and suits I was like OOPS! I feel like a duck out of water here!

Looks like you had a great time at Park Fare. I love the step family. Don't you wish you could plaster all that pink and purple makeup on your face and get away with it. They looked great!

OMG I LOVED LOVED the Step family! Lady TREMAINE was great and her poise never faltered and those step sisters what a riot! I think I liked Anastasia the best I guess because she reminded me of my niece who is like that on a daily basis, I think my niece even has the make up routine down too!

Oh, and your desserts, YUMMY!

MMMMmmmmm

I thought Epcot looked packed in your pics until I saw MAGIC KINGDOM ! Yikes. Do you know if it was full that day? I'm so glad you got Ty with the characters. It's weird how some kids just don't care for them.

Epcot was busy but Magic Kingdom was packed I an not sure if they closed the park down that day or not we spent the day there and never left till after 10pm, I think I had heard they did but cant be quite sure

Okay, now I'm off to read the last one. I'll be back!

have FUN! I should maybe have another update later today! have things to due in am but before work I should be able to bang out another!

Perfect!

I had told them to ask Santa for only one gift, because it would be hard for us to lug everything back. I know that is what they all wanted to begin with so it made it easy! oh they got a game and the DS! Now we have lost one and one is broken right off the hinges and WOW a lot of money gone!

She looks like you've been draggin her butt all over Disney World.

Poor kid!!

POOR KID MY BUTT! She was miserable most of the time most smiles in the pictures were forced! BY ME! I told her I spent way to much money and her scowl wasn't going to ruin the pictures so SMILE THERE WERE SOME GENUINE pictures as you will see the over the next few days!

Good Job Mom!!

I did my best!

The kids looked adorable in their pirate costumes. I guess I missed this one, for some reason I thought it was the last one.

well I found one that I liked better later at the DISNEY STORE in was all denim and oh it was great and it was for the same price that we had paid for the cheap ones... go figure but thanks I think they looked cute too! Did you notice that we all had Pirate stuff on that day? the boys were in there pirate costumes and Lucy had on a pirate sweatshirt and Dh had his pirate shirt mom and I had our pirate shirts on too not that we got into any pictures!

I'm so freakin confused???

Oh well, all caught up now!!

I know I added a post last night right before bed, tired but I am a slave to the DIS , I don't know what I will do when I am done with my TR?

 

[Disney Brat]

Great update & pics!! Glad to see that your DS is warming up to characters...and a hug!! How great!!??

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

A Little History about this haircut! I think it was late August when I started looking into the BBB. I also read that there was a barber shoppe in the Magic Kingdom, so I asked the boys if they would like to get their hair cuts whiles we were in Disney, of course they said Fine! they don't like having their hair cuts because Mom does it! So they had their hair cut before school and then I went to give them another one about a few months later and they said NO it has to be cut in disney! For almost three and half months they wouldn't let me cut their hair. My boys usually have buzz cuts so as you can see their hair was quite long~ So after breakfast we went off the the barber shoppe. Not many people like I had heard about only one waiting so we waited!
Tyler waiting Patiently for his haircut! in the old time barber chair.

Stephen waiting for us.

Zac getting ready His barber's name was Michael, He was a great guy!

Here comes the Clippers

Finally Tyler's in the chair. His Barber was Janet she was from I think Bermuda or the Bahamas which we talked about because I have been to both when I was Zac's age!

As we had haircuts the grand marshal's came through, and there were some carolers to.

As you can see you Tyler doesn't like his hair cut!

So after the hair cut the boys were asked if they wanted it painted and if so how! Zac wanted it to look like his was on FIRE so Michael painted it all red than put orange and yellow on the tips! it looked cool.

Tyler had told Janet that he didn't know what he wanted for his hair so she did a patriots theme RED WHITE & BLUE. Tyler had pixie dust in his, which was mickey mouse confetti.

Here is Tyler and Janet for the finally POSE!

Sam decided to get hers painted in Pink and green with Pixie dust

For two hair cuts and a painting on Sam it was a total of $28.00, not bad!
As you could see in the picture of the grand marshal's we had a great spot for the parade which would be starting in about 45 minutes so we stayed and waited.
up next the parade!

 

[scottny]

great pics of the haircuts. you r moving through at my speed.

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

So as you saw from the barber shoppe we had a great view of the parade route so we sat there! Then they made us move because they were going to use it for VIP SEATING! Then the sun was a direct hit and OH MY GOODNESS it would be in the VIP EYE'S so they changed their minds and went across the street and made other people move. They weren't to happy! So we had our spot back. So as the parade starts I noticed that cast members are waving I know they wave and that is part of their job, but almost everyone was waving and the girl beside us said Hi to a few, so being the inquisitive person I am I asked her if she was a CM and she said yes she is a dancer and that it was here day off! I thought she was nuts to be there on here day off but hey that is just me! I hate going to work on my day off, but What the heck she works at DISNEY, not a germ filled hospital!
It is now almost 1130/1200 and it is reaching about 78 80 degrees THIS IS JUST NOT RIGHT CHRISTMAS DAY NO SNOW NO COLD!???? shorts t-shirts?? I am liking it!!!
So on to the Pictures! they may not be in order but you can get the gist of it! Around the Gingerbread cookies and house was an incredible smell of gingerbread. And Goofy's peppermint twist machine it wafted the smell of peppermint mmmmm!

 

[scottny]

that looks like a fun parade.

great pics.

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

As we made our way down to Adventure land we ran into Timon and Raffiki. They were cool! Loved the Kids I think that Raffiki was like Sam a Little much but hey it's Disney show the love! Of course all the characters that we ran in to that day thought the boys hair was great and made comments whether it be a pat on the head or what they said.

After our meeting with Timon and Raffiki we decided to get a DOLE WHIP Since I had heard soooo much about them on the DIS. I asked for a dole whip ooops I had meant a a Dole Float! Well we ate them any how. the were great!

Next off to Aladdin's Magic carpets! We said the line isn't that long ooops we were wrong, but it wasn't as long as others, since the ride was being built in 2001 (the last time we were there) we stayed and rode! Here are some pictures of us on the ride and things I took pictures of while up on the ride.

Up next POC! And the HOT HOT Hot Pirate ! The boys become pirates in training.

 

[scottny]

another great update with pics.

I love the dole float. MMMM
