I really liked Henry's long hair, it was quite stylish in a way, I thought. But he looks very cute with the new hair cut as well!
What a fun corn dog update. Katharina and I tried them in January and were not soo convinced about them, but we had them with mustard. Perhaps the secret is to eat them with ketchup?
I liked the long hair too, especially when it would flip out a bit on the sides! But, it was time, due to the heat, and many people mistaking him for a girl.

We'll be growing it long again when the weather gets cooler.
You aren't a big fan of deep fried foods though either, right? Do you like hot dogs normally? I am all about the ketchup, but it's a personal preference.
I was made to eat Casey's nuggets!! I can't wait... only 59 days left!!!!

You are going the same time as me (and LL), right? We should all do a meet together! I saw on LL's report that you two are meeting at AK...we might be able to make that work as well if you don't mind us crashing your DIS meet.

Or perhaps a Corn Dog meet?
I love Henry's big boy haircut! He looks very handsome.
That picture you took of Main Street through the castle walk-through is just beautiful! I would have never thought that perspective would be so pretty!
It really was a beautiful sight with all the decorations lit up and the castle glowing...
Aww, I love those couple pictures of Main Street all lit up with the Christmas decorations. Still kind of bummed we changed our holiday trip but hey, we're going back in 33 days.
That Mickey "painting" is really cool! We saw someone doing those in April but they only did the heads. haha
And there will always be Christmas...you can go another year! But, those decorations ARE amazing - and I loved that it snowed on Main Street!
I have seen the "painting" a couple other times too and this time was the only one I saw someone draw the whole body - I was impressed!
Brook, you are HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!! I cannot stop laughing at those CDN pictures. So, so, so funny. They are pretty yummy, I do agree. What a fun night for you, Joe and KK.
I love those pics too.

I'm certain that PP Photographer thought I was a bizarre lady...but it was worth it!
I had some catching up to do.
First off I am SOOO happy for you that you did not have to sell your DVC!!
And yay for another PTR coming soon
Love all your updates. Very scary crowds
Yeah it was about 90 degrees here today so we just enjoyed our pool. Glad to hear you had a good 4th with family
I am hoping to get this TR done in July (we'll see with more visitors coming in 2 weeks!) and then I can do my PTR in August. Otherwise it might be a
very quick PTR!
Today it's almost 100 here!

Mom and I decided it was a good day to NOT be a tourist and just hang at home. We went grocery shopping, made lunch and now we are both on our computers.

Sounds like a good day to me! We might get adventurous later when it cools off some.
Wow. I can't believe the fastpasses were gone that quickly!! Glad that you would still be able to ride though with the baby swap option.
They disappeared VERY quickly. I cannot recall if TT was gone that quickly either - I don't think we even went to go check on it...but, as you'll see later in the day the wait times were INCREDIBLE!
I showed my friend (another Corn Dog Nugget lover) your photopass pictures with them. We keep talking about going together next year, so this is now on our to-do list

It was fun! It will be even better if you actually think about the pictures and set something up - mine was REALLY spur of the moment. I can just imagine some fun ideas with the nuggets...!
I am really enjoying your report, but it really kills every notion I ever had of attempting a WDW visit over Christmas!!

Ya, it's an ordeal to go during this time, that is for SURE. But, it was doable, and it's a whole new experience...I'm glad we did it once, but I don't think I would again - except if we flew in on the 30th, just hung around on the 31st, watched the awesome fireworks and then toured starting the 1st. That way you still get the decorations and the fireworks, but no people!
Hey Brook!
I just spent time catching up on your TR! Glad you're getting settled into your new place, that you're finishing up the TR, and have another trip in the works!



Three Thumbs Up!!
It's fun hearing/seeing all your Christmas experience - our next trip will be at the beginning of December... cannot wait!
And to answer your question - the fire truck was still there at the beginning of June (Noah and I sneaked away for a Mom-Son trip for three nights

and we stopped at looked at the truck. Even got info to pass on to our Disney loving friend who is the fire chief in our town about having the department's patch displayed, which is why I remember that it's still there!)
Hey there! Good to "see" you! I'm sooooo excited about our next trip, I just want to start a PTR, but I don't handle having both going very well!
I've heard the beginning of December is excellent. You often get better weather than the end of December, and low crowds, but still all the pretty decorations! Are you guys doing
MVMCP?
I'm so glad to hear about the firetruck! Henry will be very happy to see it again. And how very awesome to be able to sneak away for a few nights!!! I have been entertaining that thought as well with Henry...
