A Baptism, MNSSHP, & FD...sweating our way through 6 days at POP!! Completed!

[that's nice]

Careful now my man! I almost was. Scary to the limit!

First I hear on Circusgirl's report that they are getting rid of Kaleo at the Poly, and now no more cheesy pretzels. I need a moment.

LOL Were you feeling a little vaclempt?

here's a topic: the holy roman empire...
it was neither holy, nor roman, nor was it an empire. discuss...

Sorry.

OK!

I am finally all caught up!

I have decided that you guys need to take an extra adult with you the next time you go so that you guys can ride stuff together!

I can't wait to see what comes next...HDDR! And Never.Ever.Again....????

Chances are when we go to Disney you will be therewith the amount of trips you're taking!!!!! Our trips are already crossing in March, although I don't think our paths are going to cross.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

I agree. And I'll volunteer! I could give hugs to sweet Juliana while you and Mel rode rides together. Mark won't mind...really....if I leave him at home for a trip.

LOL I've got a few offers for babysitters!!! Sweet!!!!

Phew! All caught up! Great updates! Here are some random musings from moi....

- Looks like you guys had a great time at CRT! That special dessert for Juliana was so much fun - what a great idea to do that for her!

We did have a great time here. We were impressed with the food too!

- MNSSHP is for sure on my LONG list of must-do items. My goddaughter and I are taking a trip next fall and perhaps we should schedule it around that time...hm.....

It really was a great time! If you are able to, you should try to make it to the party!

- I loved your costumes! Everyone looked like they were having just a great time! My sister's name is Alice (she was even Alice for Halloween this year) and we try and get her picture taken with the "other Alice" every time we go down.

Thank you. Alice & Alice... that's cool!

- TSM looked like a blast! We didn't get to do that last time around (it was brand-new opened and the waits and even Fastpass times were INSANE) so that's for sure on my list for this trip.

You NEED to ride this... Think of Monsters Inc X1000 !!! LOL

- Your treats looked YUMMY!! YUM!! I love those covered pretzel things...those are my favorite. Somehow I feel less guilty eating peanuts, M&Ms and chocolate if there is a pretzel at the root of it all.

Can't wait to read more!!!

I think my DW thinks the same way!!! LOLOL

Are you inviting yourself?? Why not just have them come in Sept, then they could have auntie maroo and auntie liesa watch that cutie pie?? I get dibs on Dumbo with her!!

Ladies LADIES! No fighting over Juliana. LOL She has enough energy to tire you both out!

Congrats to you and Juliana for winning!

Thanks!!!!

Aww the Honey I Shrunk the Kids play area is so cute! I've never been there myself (I think the target group is a little younger than me ) but I can definitely see how kids would have a ball there.

I hope you are making a list of all the things you have to do. This & Playhouse Disney! Seriously, you should just walk through and check it out.

Good idea going back to Pop to rest, especially in that heat. Can't wait to hear about HDDMR

We didn't have too much time to rest, but it was nice to take showers and cool off a little bit before HDDR.

Finally caught up, I think I missed three updates!

I love the pics with Juliana and Alice. I'm happy to hear that she took some time with her!

Thank you. Watching them together was really cute.

Chocolate faced Juliana is a great picture!! She looks like she was seriously diving into that one. And, no, I didn't look at the nutrional information. I think at Disney, the calories don't mean anything.

That was a classic kid ice cream picture! LOL

I've heard that about the Disney calories.. now who told me..

I don't like the title of your next update "Never. Ever. Again:" because it sounds like something really bad happened.....

It wasn't REALLY bad..... well.....

I am loving your TR!! I see the weather was hot, but how would you say the crowds were? I am thinking of going the same time as you did next year?

It was hot but it was also record heat, so it was never that hot before. LOL The crowds were very manageable. Our MK was pretty busy.. it was rated the worst park on that day by the touring guide crowd calendar. We did it anyways. We still got a lot done. I think you will be fine. Have you been to WDW before? What time of year? Maybe I can compare it to something...

 

[that's nice]

So much for getting this done before I left.

I am going away for the weekend and will be back to finish up Wednesday and Thursday on Tuesday. (Did you get all that?) I hope you all have a great weekend!

Have a great weekend, a great birthday and be safe. We'll miss you. Maybe Mel will "come out" while you are gone.

 

[disney<333]

Looks like you guys had a blast at DHS, minus the heat! Great score on TSM! That is now my favorite ride, so much fun. Can't wait to hear about hoopdie do. And what's never again? HDH?
Have fun on your trip and have a great birthday! Maybe Mil will work on the TR.
Hope you and the girls are all doing well.

 

[StefaniLyn]

Have a safe flight, a good weekend, and a , old man!

 

[tinkgurl]

Have a great birthday Tim!

 

[jenseib]

Have a fun weekend!

Where at in Pop did you get the pretzel? I love those, but I don't recall seeing htem there before? Now I'm hungry!

 

[steffali]

this will be my first time going in October. I have been to WDW in April,May,December,January & February. We usually go before or after holidays to avoid the crowds. My daughter is disabled so it just makes it easier for us.

Why was that one day you were in MK so crowded?? I want to avoid it when planning my days.

BTW, You are the first TR I have ever read and I am really enjoying it!!

 

[onelilspark]

Have a good weekend!

 

[shebaxric]

Enjoy your weekend!

 

[maroo]

Gosh...I was not anticipating an invitation to come with you guys! Really.

It wasn't like volunteering to be the third wheel on Liesa's trip - I DID invite myself on THAT one!

I just figured you need to bring a grandparent or something so that you guys can have some time together on the rides. It stinks that you have to keep swapping off.

I am sure Mel would not want a complete stranger watching her daughter while you guys went out of sight on a ride.

Well, technically, I called you first... but well, then you did volunteer awful quick like (GB ought to like that sort of Texas speak).

I agree! Just think, you could sneak off and go to Cali Grill while maroo sneaks her on RnRC, HM, ToT... OK, she wouldn't really do that, and I can assure you she'd never even get on the teacups either. But she would spoil her silly at Caseys. and the Ice Cream Parlor, and the Confectionary, AND she has the in with the train crew!

 

[lbuzz52]

Glad you are gone so I can catch up! Lol!

Looks like a fun day at dhs. Wish we had known about the kidcot thing at rnr. I swear you could spend a day at each park just looking for things you've never. Noticed before.
Hisk looks like fun!

 

[All7OfUs]

Me thinks you ought to be back now. Hope you had a wonderful time....

 

[DisneyFed]

Ok, it's Monday, let's get to work

Ok, Ok, so it's 5 pm here and you're just getting started, my bad

 

[maroo]

It's Monday!!!

Is today your birthday???????




If so...



If not....

Well....

 

[KatMark]

Tim, if I remember correctly you are coming back today from Indianapolis (laste game, great game -- and the right team won!). We received your envelope in the mail earlier this week--that was so totally unnecessary for you and Mel to do--but Mark is in heaven as he loves his Dunkin Donuts. But my favorite part of the envelope was the picture of my precious Juliana which is now gracing my refrigerator--front and center! Thank you so much for the gift card to DD and the precious picture of "Juliana as Alice."

 

[StefaniLyn]

Tim you picked a great game to watch! I hope you stayed til the end! Welcome back and, if Maroo is correct, Happy Birthday!

 

[disney<333]

Hey Tim,
Hope you had a great trip!
And......
Happy Birthday!!!

Hope you had a great day!

Have a great weekend, a great birthday and be safe. We'll miss you. Maybe Mel will "come out" while you are gone.

Thank you! I don't think Mel came to play.

Thank you! Everyone is doing great. It's nice to be home!

Have a safe flight, a good weekend, and a , old man!

Thank you. I'm now a member of the 32 club. LOL

Have a great birthday Tim!

Thanks!

Have a fun weekend!

Where at in Pop did you get the pretzel? I love those, but I don't recall seeing htem there before? Now I'm hungry!

We got the pretzel at DHS and just brought them back to POP for a snack.

Thanks for reading! October isn't too busy.. I think closer to Halloween is gets a little busier. I would think October as a whole is less busier than April.

MK was crowded because with MNSSHP 4 days a week, people try to hit MK on a non party day.

Have a good weekend!

Enjoy your weekend!

Oh I DID! LOL

I am sure Mel would not want a complete stranger watching her daughter while you guys went out of sight on a ride.

One of these days it would be nice to actually meet you. At least in March, we will be with another couple so we can watch each others kids for the adult rides.
