A Flower, A Bird, A Teddy Bear & the Disney First Timers!* LAST UPDATE* 07/25/08

[Tat2ddisneymom]

we'll have to try and get the 3 of us on there together for a good picture Remember the ones Cheri got with Chris and Mike last year? I was a stick in the mud and didn't want to ride that ride anymore and now I regret that I wasn't in on the pictures

I remember! I can't wait to ride the ToT again! We're definitely getting a picture this time!



OB - great pictures. I can really tell how much the kids have grown in the past few years. Bird looks so small in that picture from 2005!

Great Update OB. I especially love the last picture with Stitch in it! I didn't know they did that

 

[Leger13]

oh you mean Test Track (TT) not ToT (but that would still be fun if we can redneck it )

Yeah, I knew it was TT...I just didn't say it I expect everyone to remember

 

[Leger13]

I remember! I can't wait to ride the ToT again! We're definitely getting a picture this time!

I can't wait either...it's gonna be SO fun!!!

Hey Ob, I did not know you did another update



I will pause while you look at your title


Sorry, it is my job to be Sharky




Seriously, I Love your time warps as usual


I really need to start doing that. I wish I had thought about it our first two trips.


I guess I could look at our pics from last year and see if there are any good shots where I could have DS stand again this year, in the same spot


Anyway, what a difference from 2007 to 2008 for Bird....Growing up so fast


I love Seeing Teddy as a little toddler..so cute



Great group shots, especially the one with Stitch

Great Update OB. I especially love the last picture with Stitch in it! I didn't know they did that

We should try and get that picture together this year! You, me, Nikki, and the rest of our vacation-going friends/family!
I wonder if they do them during the EMH's...or maybe it would be too dark

 

[Trentmom]

Hey Ob


Do we get anymore

I was determined to try to pool. Two years at Windsor Hills and we have never made it to the pool. So away we went. It was quite chilly (not the pool-it was heated) but we swam for about 45 minutes before they kicked us out.

People I don’t know in the hot tub…

Kiddie area with the water slide in the background (this was closed—guess it was too late)

The next morning we got up and packed and got a few more shots of the room.

This is where I had coffee everymorning…

The room a little messy

All in All it was great trip! We had lots of fun and I was so happy my parents finally got to see Disney.

Thing I would change:
I would definitely go slower. I tried to cram a lot in because I wasn’t
sure when my parents would ever get back and I wanted them to see
everything.

Things left undone to be remembered for next trip:
Haunted Mansion
Dole Whip

Thing I will never forget:
The look on my kids faces while they were watching Fantasmic,
and hearing them cheer for Mickey.

The End​

awww so sad that it's over!! I loved your ending though. I have goose bumps from what you said about watching your kids watch fantasmic for the first time and chearing for Mickey! Makes me remember why I love disney so much.

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful trip with us all!! I enjoyed each and every last bit of it!! I can't wait to read about your future Disney adventures whenever that may be

 

[lovebuzzandwoody]

Hmmmmm... I might've had to "borrow" this.




Aw... can't believe it's over! What a great trip you had! I can't wait to share the MK with my mama... whenever that may be. Soonish, I hope.

I know you were a little leary of doing this report and that we all strong-armed ya to do it... but aren't you glad you did? I sure am! You did a fantastic job and I'm so happy you shared your memories with us!

 

[scottny]

great ending to your report. seems like you had a great time. thanks for sharing.

 

[Trentmom]

I am so sorry it is over, but thank you so much for sharing your trip with us.

I loved your ending too


That pool looks really nice as does Windsor Hills


Hope you will do another one for your next trip




So, when is that ?

 

[cherbear]

Awwwww.....is it really over??

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful family trip with us. I liked your final thoughts. You didn't hve much on that list that you missed. Great job!

Dole whip's on my list, too.

 

[Tat2ddisneymom]

You gave me goosebumps! I'm so sad its over!

Do you really think its better not to try to cram everything in? I'm not sure what to do on our upcoming trip. Should we just rent Debbie an ECV and go full speed, or should we take it slow? Like you, I don't know if she'll be able to get there any time soon, and I want her to see a lot.

Now you have to plan another trip so you can get on the Haunted Mansion and get yourself a dole whip!

I want that Disney artwork. Wonder what my hubby would think if I decorated the house like that.

Like you care what Joe thinks!

Have you ever pre-ordered DVD's at the Disney store? I used to do that and they'd give you free lithographs... those look kinda like that.

It actually wasn't our first time at Fantasmic, but Teddy was so little the first time -- he didn't really "get it". They were really cheering Mickey on. It was so sweet

Thanks! I had a great time reliving my trip!

So, when is that ?

I'm not sure. I think we are shooting for 2010!

Awwwww.....is it really over??

Dole whip's on my list, too.

Thanks. I'm sure there is much more that we didn't do, but those are top on my list for next time!

It just seemed to go by so fast and I think my Mom and Dad were really exhausted. The year before we did a park every other day and that was the way to go. But you have to take in account that we don't hop. Once we are in a park --- we stay put! Plus we are always there when they open and leave when they close. So....it al depends on your style.

Your hubby would probably think the same thing mine would. That we are both

Like you care what Joe thinks!
