Great day, I love the flower photos I must try to go at that time of year one day! I love Erics face with the princess

Absolutely love your TR! The pictures are awesome, I am so sad we'll miss garden days at Epcot this year, but am happy for all of your pretty pictures. Went back and found the Jr. Chef pic's, can't believe I missed that post (been busy you know ) but LOVE the report. So you were there about 15 minutes before it started, I was planning on a half an hour but like your advice better . Mental note, take kids to the bathroom BEFORE getting in line for it, thanks for the tip. We love that food court there too, SUCH good food!

Thanks so much! We LOVED the food at Sunshine Seasons. I think if you eat there around 11:30-11:45 you will get a great gauge of when to line up for Jr. Chef you can watch the crowd gather . We were there at a relatively low crowd level time, I'm sure it's a little more crowded in June. Definitely do the bathroom first! Thanks for catching up!

So today I realized there's no way of getting around working in Manhattan, which being a fellow jersey girl, you know is a total bummer considering the lovely commute. So I was pretty bummed out the majority of the morning arranging interviews.

Then I took a break midday and found my respite- your TR. Talk about a change of moods! You cheered me up *sooooo*much and had me on a roll thinking about Disney

I absolutely LOVED catching up. Your sons are so adorable and you're all such a beautiful family together. I'm so happy you had such a great time and shared so many wonderful memories...although I'm really sad that your TR is coming to an end! Can't wait to read the ending..though bittersweet!

I just read your whole TR (so far).

Your boys are so funny! I bet they're a handfull!

Sounds like you had an awesome trip.

Keep up the TR and pics... I am loving them!

The picture with your 2 DS sleeping is too cute! It reminds me of my grandmother's favorite picture of me and my sister sleeping that close when we were younger in WDW.

You last day sounds memorable...poop and all.

I have just spent the morning reading your report and it is awesome! I love the very last picture of your sweet boys sleeping. Those always seem to be my favorite pictures!!
I am so glad you had a great trip!

WELCOME! Thanks so much! We had a great vacation. I can't believe we've been home for over a month already! The boys are handful sometimes but sweet most of the time!

Thanks! I know it is so sad when it ends! I am going to try and type the last installment tonight! Thanks for sharing our journey with us!

 

[disneyaddicted]

Oh wow, I had so much catching up to do. I looooooved the MGM installment! you posted lots of pics of things I didn't do or see on my last trip but I want to see on this next trip, the photos made it definite for me.

I was happy to hear you give Toy Story Pizza Planet a good review, Reese really wants to eat there when we go.

Poop in the pool gross! Did they have to empty the pool at all? I heard that's what is done, but I can't imagine that happening.

Great trip report, I really enjoyed it. You have a good looking family and precious boys.

Thanks for catching up! We thought the meal at Pizza Planet was great! I saw them throwing some stuff in the pool at POP but not draining it although we didn't stick around long to see exactly what they did! Thanks for your sweet comments about the boys!

Our Journey Home.................

Of course no one wanted to get up this morning! Our Magical Express departure time was 7:30am So we got a wake up call at 6:30. I packed everything except the last few toiletries the night before so there wasn't much to do this morning except get dressed and go! Believe it or not we hadn't had a chance to walk around the whole resort yet! Unbelievable that for a whole week we didn't venture outside of the 50's and 60's So it was a goal of mine to get up and take some pictures......

The year Bryan was born..........

The year I was born.............

I absolutely loved this resort! Of course I have nothing else to compare it to being that we had never stayed on property prior to this trip. The theming was great, the staff were helpful, the rooms were clean and the boys just absolutely LOVED it! There is no way we could ever go to Disney and not stay on property again! It was like the magic never left! Our experience was incredible!

Here is how the boys and I felt about leaving...........

Then we made our way out front to the Magical Express stop...

We filled our mugs 1 last time with coffee!

This was the last picture we took at the POP....

I have to say Magical Express was incredibly convenient! We arrived in plenty of time. We boarded the plane and off we went back to Philadelphia!

That's all folks! Thank you to each and every one of you for sharing our journey with us! It was so special to be able to relive our trip by reporting it to you all! I am very grateful and appreciative for all of your incredibly sweet comments! I love my little DIS family! Thanks Again for joining us!

I love my little DIS family! Thanks Again for joining us!

And we love you right back, my friend! Thank YOU for writing a wonderful report.

I loved the pics of Pop. We've never stayed there so it was great to get a chance to see it. We stayed at ASMo when Caitlin was young and I'm not sure who got more tickled by the great big icons--Cait or Alex.

It was a pleasure to get to know you--PM me whenever you'd like because I'm going to miss chatting with you!
