Woo hoo! Great posts, girl! I think these are some of my favorite pictures from the whole trip!!

It is so cool to see HS so empty like that! I love that picture of Shelby in her tutu in the room dancing. Did I mention that I love your hair when you cut it? If not, I love your hair! I love that picture of Koby and Brady with their arms around each other! Sooo cute!

These Playhouse Disney pics are just awesome! Shelby looks so happy and it is absolutely awesome that she got to meet all of her favorite characters.

Oh, and one more thing: congratulations on being the 1st family of the day! What a magical memory!

Okay, one more thing- the "neener neener neener" thing had me doing this: ! You are so awesome!

Thanks girl!!! I was amazed at how empty it was! You never see it like that, unless you are like us & be there at the crack of dawn! I wish that pic would have been clearer to see, but my camera was charging, so it was my good old BB to the rescue! And thank you! I love my hair! I told the woman who cut it that I didn't want anything on my neck & she did exactly what I wanted. That pic of the boys was a rare occurrence, trust me!

I was so happy she got to meet her favorites. She liked Jojo, even though she didn't know who it was!

Thank you! I was thrilled to be the 1st family of the day!

He was still in a mood from lack of sleep, so when I pointed it out & I had to do the "neener neener neener" to him. He just rolled his eyes.

Koby's birthday cupcake looked yummy- I could go for one of those right now!

Thanks! Koby said it wasn't that good, so he gave it to Shelby who took 1 bite & then gave it to Brady who took a few bites. Ben finished it off.

There were many times last week that I caught my kids running around parks and/or resort with their shoes off hehehe! We may live in TX now, but they are still little Louisiana-born cajuns LOL

BTW..... I was born in Houma (grew up in Lake Charles mostly though)

PS....keep 'em coming! Your TR has become the highlight of my day! Hopefully I'll get mine started soon.

Haha! That is awesome! And thank you so much! That makes me so happy to hear! I was just telling Joni (therussells08) that I don't want to overload it with pictures, but I took so many & I love them all, so it's hard to weed out & take some away!

Wow First family How fun and cool

What a fun breakfast. I was thinking of doing it as a lunch. My little guy loves Einsteins and Handy Manny. Can't wait to see how the rest of the day plays out.

I bet the lunch is just as awesome as our breakfast was! If he loves those characters, he will definitely love Play & Dine!

Thanks! I will break up HS into 2 days, 2 posts each due to the number of pics I have for that park!

for being the first family of the day!! How special!! Love all the great photos of an empty DHS and from H&V!

What a Magical Morning! I love the character interaction you had at the breakfast. Your little girl is so cute. I took by youngest to Disney last year for her birthday, she was turning 10 too. At first she loved the attention, by the end of the week she stopped wearing her pin. She was tired of hearing "Happy Birthday".

That certainly cheered us up! The empty DHS was really weird! I never thought I would ever see it like that.

Thanks! It was wonderful! Oh yeah, Koby said he had never heard "happy birthday" so much in his life! But he wore the pin anyway!

Here is the link for the pearl carriages: http://cgi.ebay.com/18K-WGP-PEARL-CAGE-25X25MM-CARRIAGE-/390203801476?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5ad9f57f84
