Yay! I am so glad your TR is starting. I read your last one and am looking forward to this one. Brooklynn sure is growing up. She is such a cutie.

Loving all the pictures!! Heading to CSR over Labor Day - your photos are getting me excited... I don't want summer to be over, but that's when we're going to Disney! Mixed emotions!

I've been lurking since Baby and the Tramp...and like everyone else I have fallen in love with your family. You guys are the best. I just can't resist posting. Keep it up!!!!!

Your post reminded that I don't think we ever explained the title for those who have not already read the Baby and the Tramp thread. You guys who have been reading know already that Brooklynn speak is:

Magic Kingdom - Magic Camel
Epcot - Atcot
Hollywood Studios - Ha-ee-wood
Animal Kingdom - Ammel Cammo

So, we used the Magic Camel for our title. She is one smart little girl and has an incredible memory, but she still says it all in toddler talk, obviously. It's so cute, and I want Jill to video her singing Small World and put it on for you, because it is precious.

I love toddler talk. There are things that both of the boys say/have said that I wish I could have sevad forever.

Speaking of which, have you tried the video function on the S5? I find it great for short clips like the kids talking. The quality may not be as good as the camera but I have the memory saved and one piece of equipment!

Such a great start to this trip! Every time I see your Pop photos, it makes me want to try it!

I'm here anxiously reading! Your pictures of POP are the closest I'll come to seeing it this year, so I'm living through you!

Question - I was reading the TR this morning and came across one of your meal by the pool pictures with the refillable mug while drinking out of my surprisingly similar refillable mug from 2007. It looks like the same mug - Does it say WDW and Where dreams come true on the side (YOAMD mug)?? Mine has the year also - does your new one have the year??

Thanks!
Kelly

They are the same, but with no date. I'd be glad if they went back to resort specific mugs. They make better souvenirs.

Scott - Here are your other Sunshine Seasons pictures. Hope this helps.

Hi Just found your tr and am loving it.

I love all of the photos.

Brooklynn is just the cutest little girl.

Can't wait to read more

It sure pays to have Dis friends looking out for you. SwansLoveDisney, snowbell, and all of us (and hopefully Nicole is driving up for a day) are going to meet in November. In talking about our plans, I told snowbell we had a lunch ADR at Garden Grill. She said she had heard they were doing away with lunch sometime in October, so I called Disney Dining to find out. The lady said it was probably just a rumor, but then came back and confirmed that indeed it is closing for lunch as of sometime in the first few days of October. At first she said the 4th, but then she said the 5th, but either way, our GG ADR was no good. She got us in at Crystal Palace on the same day around the same time, so we'll just change parks and go there. We were very pleased with it on this trip, and we're happy to be able to share it with the others now.

 

[scottny]

thanks for the pics. they r great.

sounds like a fun day u have planned in November with the meets.

 

[snowbell]

So I looked at these pictures this morning and totally had to go to the diner at lunch and get myself an egg sandwich.. the food looks so yummy...

Glad I could help with the GG. I saw in another report that you really had wanted to do LTT on Thankgiving but now there are no characters.. ...

WELCOME HOME!!!!!!!

Glad to know you guys are home safe and I hope you had a WONDERFUL time!!!!!!

So cute!

I definitely want to see her singing Small World. I think she tried last time we were together but with everyone looking her way I think she got shy

The areas you have marked are good. The inside of that Big Wheel building would be really good - right there on that row where the front wheel is. Our first trip there, we were in the Big Wheel building right across from the playground and right next to Classic Hall. It was nothing to be be able to walk down for food or drinks. If you could get right around the steps of the back side of that, it would be perfect. You're away from pool noise and foot traffic, but close to the bus stop and main building. And you'd be close to the Goofy jets, when you and Dawn want to go play in them and take silly pictures, 'cause I'm guessing there will be some silly pictures being taken on this giddy girl trip!

The 80s building would be fine, too, but the 70s is a few steps closer, so if I were making a request, I'd try for that one first. I hope some of that makes sense.

THANKS for the info!!

Dawn's sister is going this week too, so she's going to come back with ideas also. My biggest problem is giving them 2-3 good request (that are not to wordy ) so we can maybe get where we want!

the characters are there at LTT till January 4th. then they r gone.

oh ok.. I still will never get to see them... Why are they doing this to us... I am sad.

I'm just thinking with ALL these changes they are making, they are going to suprise us with BIGGER and BETTER things .....At least they better

What great pictures of POP! We almost stayed there last year but opted to upgrade instead. Maybe we should try this one out next time. Hope the rest of your trip was just as wonderful as the very beginning! Can't wait to see the rest.
