A Summer Wedding and a Disney Trip CANCELLED, HELP DECIDE WHEN WE'LL GO IN 2011

Gracious! I was behind several installments.

First off, your Animal Kingdom day plans look great. When you go over to Rafiki's Planet Watch, be sure to be on the look out for hidden Mickeys. There are lots and lots of them painted in the murals.

As far as which trail I would suggest, I don't know if I can just suggest one as they all have great things to see. On the Maharajah Jungle Trek, you can see the bats and tigers. On the Pangani Forest Trail, there's the beautiful gorillas (and there's a new baby that was just born). We also found that there are some "hidden" trails around the base of the Tree of Life where you can see all sorts of different animal carvings that you normally wouldn't see if you didn't explore the trails.

Your Hollywood Studios day looks good too. I rode the Tower of Terror for the first time last year and couldn't believe how much I liked it. Pizza Planet is always a must do when we go to Hollywood Studios. I know there are other places to eat but my son just loves Pizza Planet.

Oh goodness, I almost forgot! :yay: for adding an extra day to the vacation. That's always worth a :cheer2:!

The basketball pictures and the birthday pictures are so good. You did an excellent job on the cake.:thumbsup2
 
It looks like ya'll had such a good birthday weekend :thumbsup2. The cake looks so cute. I know it was exciting for Sam to have two parties.

Thanks! I don't know if I want to see the Gorillas or the tigers. I'm leaning more towards the trail with the Tigers, but we'll see. I would love to do them both obviously, but that wouldn't sit well with our poor feet.

Thanks!
 
So on wednesday (Sam's birthday) we are going to have a Princess and the Frog Disney night. She is getting the DVD for her birthday tomorrow and on wed. we'll watch it and have ice cream sundeas! If anyone can think of an activity or craft for this, i'd love to hear it. I am going to check the Disney movie nights thread to see if there's anything over there!

Oh and my ticker almost says 5 months!
 
Happy birthday to Sam! It's been kind of a birthday weekend around here...mine was Friday, my dad's was yesterday, and my sister's is today. My dad told me he has a late bday present for me and it comes out tomorrow...hmmm, I'm pretty sure it's the Princess and the Frog DVD. :laughing:

We are doing a Princess and the Frog night on Friday! I am thinking we are going to make some Frog Cupcakes, and Beignets but I have no idea for the dinner! I do not know how to make jambalaya or Gumbo! For the activty Mary posted some pics of her girls and they did an activity at the Disney Store- Frog Visers... they look cute, I was also thinking masks would be fun to make.
 
what a cute cake--great job! Looks like Sam is having a great time celebrating her birthday. :goodvibes:

Thanks

Thanks, and I actually warned Manny last night that Princess Tiana will most likely have a huge line, but WE ARE waiting! Sam MUST meet her!

I'm not sure what we're doing for dinner either. I'm not sure it will go along with the movie at all. But I was actually thinking of a "froggy" craft too.
 
We did just see her and prince naveen in the MK. It was our longest wait to see a character but they were great. Princess Tiana was so beautiful!!
 
Looks like Sam is having a wonderful birthday week! You did a great job on that cake Pam! It's so cute. :cutie:

Can't wait to see what you come up with on the Princess and Frog festivities. popcorn::
 
Sam is ADORABLE in her new Minnie raingear! The birthday pictures are so fun! I love the cookie cake and carousel idea for friends-- she and her little friends look so precious!! Seems like you guys had a busy, but great weekend!

Oh, the prince is there too. Sam cannot wait to see her! I bet she is pretty. Is there a pic of her in your TR?

Thanks. And i'm still not sure what we're doing for an "activity" we have so much planned for today that by the time we watch the movie we'll probably just chill out with our ice cream sundaes.

Thanks, I do LOVE the rain gear. And yes we did have a busy weekend, but everything went well.
 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO SAMANTHA AND HAPPY ST PATRICK'S DAY!!!! She went to school this morning in one of her pretty new birthday dresses that was of course green! They do cute little birthday activities when it's your bday at school so she couldn't wait for that!:goodvibes The Leprachans (not sure how to spell that) also visit the classrooms. When I dropped Sam off I heard that they turned the milk green. Ewwww!!!! But the kids were all outside giggling, they thought that was so neat!

It's going to be 63 degrees here today, so i'm ecstatic. :banana: Haven't felt this weather since September! Sam and I are going out to lunch at Mcdonalds when I pick her up at 11:30 and then she is going to spend her birthday money at Toys R Us. She also gets to ride her new bike!

I hope everyone has a wonderful day! And I hope your weather is as beautiful as ours!!!! Makes me want to be in Florida with the sun shining like this!
 
I hope Sam and the rest of you all are having a wonderful day--beautiful weather is such a nice treat on a birthday!! :goodvibes
