Day Five
Saturday
7:30 Wake Up
8:00 Out to Bus Stop
9:00 Hollywood and Vine
10:00 Touring at DHS
1:40 Lunch at 50's Prime Time
2:40 Back to Hotel for Naps/Pool
6:30 Mickey's BBQ
9:00 SpectroMagic at MK
10:00 Wishes at MK
11:00 Lights out

Okay ~ well I already posted the Hollywood and Vine pictures that I had so no pictures there! This morning will be our first with all the girls to get ready ~ so it may take us a little longer to get ready!

Again hoping to get some pictures early before the place is too crowded! Photopass will definately work out great for us in these situations!

With the age ranges we have we are hoping to see Muppets, Playhouse Disney and Little Mermaid. I think those three things will get us to lunch and are pretty much the only things that all the ages will like... maybe Great Movie Ride and the Honey I Shrunk the Kids playground if we have time.

I think everyone will enjoy the 50's PrimeTime Cafe for lunch DH and I are the only ones that have ever been there ~ so it should be a fun new experience for everyone else!

After lunch we plan to head back for pool time and naps if we can.

We have Mickey's BBQ which none of us have ever done so that will be a new thing for us. We are hoping everyone will be up for a run over to MK for Spectro Magic and Wishes but who knows what kind of mood they will be in by then. Long day for four little girls who are going to be excited just to see each other never mind be at Disney too.

Well that is Day 5.

Sounds fun. I want to do the bbq someday too. I looked into it this year, but DH wanted to go back to Hoop Dee Doo. So if we go next year, I may try for that.

 

[Suellen]

I am a little nervous about the BBQ but I'll let you know how we like it!!

 

[Lady Lallie]

I just read your PTR this evening. I'm originally from Maine, so I just had to read about your upcoming trip!

Your girls are beautiful.

I have heard mixed reviews on the food. I think it's just pretty basic, but the kids seem to love the show and interaction. Definately take pics and give us a full review!

Day Six

We will still have the cousins with us so we are doing Tusker House unless we can add two people to Chef Mickeys in the next week ~ currently we can’t.  We will do some touring at Animal Kindgom hoping to see some shows and maybe the Safari. This is BY FAR our least favorite park and I wouldn’t be sad to skip it all together.

We have a pretty late lunch at Le Cellier and then heading back to the hotel before hitting up Ohana’s and some late night touring at MK! They are open until 2AM I think ~ and I am hoping that DH and I can get some alone time in the park. My mom and the girls will never be able to stay out that late.

We loved Ohana’s so much and are celebrating out Anniversary this night!!

The cousins will be leaving sometime during the day ~ but I have no idea what time yet.

I am REALLY hoping for some good weather!

Day 7

Monday
8:30 Wake Up
9:00 Out to Bus Stop
10:00 Breakfast at Chef Mickey's
11:00 Touring at AK
1:30 Lunch at Yak and Yeti
2:30 Back to Hotel for Naps/Pool
5:00 Touring at Epcot
7:30 Tutto Italia
8:30 Back to Hotel for Naps/Pool
11:00 Lights Out

Well today we will be back to just the five of us. Should be a fun relaxed day for all of us.

We have never been to Chef Mickeys for breakfast so that should be fun! I think the girls will enjoy seeing all the “classic” characters! I had originally planned to tour AK but I am thinking since we will now be doing that on Sunday that we will do a little MK before heading to AK for lunch. We will have to see what we feel like that day. None of us really tour commando so it should be easy to just decide that day.

In the afternoon I would like to check out some of the Epcot countries before hitting Italy for dinner. DH and I loved this meal last time and I think I might make this DH’s birthday celebration.

Not much else going on tonight so I think we will just head back to the hotel early and let the kids swim if it is warm enough…. I think they will enjoy some evening swimming and it will give us a chance to do laundry and get things packed up. I like to wash everything before we leave and pack it clean ~ if I have a convenient time to do it ~ I don’t need to do it if it will interfere with actual vacation time though!

Day 8

Ho-Hum. Our last day. Going home day. Always a sad day for me. We are having breakfast at Whispering Canyon ~ which we did last year and really enjoyed. DD LOVED playing with the Lincoln Logs. OCD little child that she is collected all the Roof Logs!

Then we will probably do our last minute shopping at MK see a few MUST DO AGAINS and then head back to POP for a counter service lunch before catching our Magic Express for MCO. Sad, sad, sad time for me.

 

[Suellen]

Okay ~ here we are with three more sleeps to go and I still have a LOT to do!

They came to rip out my kitchen cabinets and rehang them as well as some other maintenance on the house....backsplashes and such. So my house it a disaster area. It seriously looks like a food bomb went off.

They girls are all packed save for a few items my mom wash, ironed and folded for them that I need to slip in the bag. I still have to get their carry on bags all set with coloring books, books, and other little surprises I have to keep them busy on the plane. I need to download a season of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Dora to my Itouch for the girls to have while we are away ~ and for on the plane too.

I have to pack for my DH and myself. Although I hit up Old Navy yesterday and my co-worker had printed me a 30% off coupon so I got 5 tshirts, two pairs of shorts and a pair of cargo pants for 26$ including tax!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it! Neither could DH ~ I told him I was going to Old Navy and he offered to give me some money from his account ~ I think he thought I was going to go crazy!

We bumped up Z's age yesterday so she will be on the dining plan. It cost us 241$ but I think she will easily use that up in snacks and the meals we do have to buy for her. Plus it will just be less hassle for us ~ and when we go after she is three ~ she will have a one day ticket to use.

Okay ~ so I think that is all.

I will update some when I get a chance ~ gotta put my kitchen back together tonight!

Thanks! We haven't been to either so it is good to hear from someone who liked it!

Any recommendations on what to order?

 

[lizet313]

Good luck on the kitchen let us know how it went.

 

[Suellen]

I definately will.

You can see in this picture a little that the cabinets are coming off the wall and that the door is warped. And this was before the house was moved to our land. So it wasn't due to the move.

They are taking them down, rehanging and replacing all the doors. There are other issues with the doors too. Our house was also delivered with no screen on the slider and our front door blows open often.

Fun times. At least they are finally fixing it!

 

[lizet313]

YEY it's always fun to start over specially when you get to dictate what where and when you want it lol well just as long as the workers don't kick you out for being to bossy


The color of the cabinets are beautiful I love them nice and clean lines and they work so well with counter and the wall.


Well anyways am glad everything is now working out with your house and I hope everything goes to plan at WDW. I had my plans and ended up doing everything else it was fun I can't complain.



YEY almost time for you to go.

Now if I can only get her to take a nap after lunch we should be all ready to go!

I am trying to put my kitchen back together but it is really SLOW going!!
