What is Club Penguin?
I love the Soarin' picture, makes you feel like you are right on it!
Club Penguin is kind of new, so I'm not sure about it yet. I'm sure that when Brooklynn gets more familiar with it, I will be of more help!
Club Penguin is a website for kids where they can make a penguin character and interact with others and do all sorts of fun stuff.
Great pictures MeMom. I can't wait to post my Beverly pictures.
I wanted Kay to taste Beverly, but I was in a nice mood that day and didn't want to trick her into drinking it. I'm still working on Jill to take a taste of it, but she refuses.
Hey, maybe I'll tell her that of she doesn't try it, I'm going to get Brooklynn to drink it!

Maybe she'll do it to save her baby!
More shopping pictures and no Beverley taste test pictures.
Just kidding, there was some cool stuff there. I like the Coca Cola table.
I know. I look back and wonder why I didn't guide her toward the Beverly. I will do it next time.
Glad you are enjoying the shopping pictures!
Our
Crocs store had a bunch of Disney jibbitz when Jill and I were there last week. We thought about you guys and about getting some for Declan. Are you interested? They had a Mickey football one. We looked for hockey, but no luck. We'd be glad to send him some if you don't have access to them up there. Just let us know, and what we can do is go to the store, take a picture, put it on here, and you can tell us your choices.
Loved the shopping pictures...
I'm ready to shop!
I'm hoping to "trick" Ben or maybe Hannah into tasting the Beverly...is that bad?
2 days to go! Should be packing...but I'm Dising!
I'm always ready to shop!!!
I think one sip for Hannah and one big gulp for Ben would be good!

I might see if Brooklynn would take one tiny, tiny sip, just for what I know would be a very funny picture.
You guys have a GREAT trip!
I need to try Beverly for myself just to understand what all of the hype is about. 
I love the Mouse Gear store, so many fun things to browse. My kiddos all love Club Penguin!
Yes, you do. You are not a real Diser until you pass the Beverly taste test!
It tastes like bad medicine, so don't take a swig; just take a tiny sip.
It was fun window shopping this afternoon with you, I am off to work now....
I spent the morning over at 'Creative DISigns' today. There are some very talented and kind people over there. I am going to try my hand at making some tees. It looks like so much fun.
I want one of those things where they make your name in bubble letters with all the characters in the background. How do I get someone to make a MeMom, Jill, etc. one to put on our windows at Pop?
Aaahhhh, makes me wish I was shopping at the World right now. Great pictures!
Me. too! I've thought of
wigd and
CP down there having such fun all week.

I really like this pic. I got to ride in the front row in either November or January, and it was GREAT, but in ways I kinda like the feet too.
My inital reaction to the first picture was "Hmm...that's kinda creepy looking"

I think it's the lack of solid eyes.
I'm not convinced either. I do like the colors and the pattern though. I'd have to see it in person.
Yeah, I think if those things had solid eyes they might be a little better.
Cool Soarin' photo, MeMom! MouseGears is my favorite Disney gift shop (well that and the Art of Disney). I love how you always take pictures of the merchandise! I have to agree with you on the Mickey backpacks. (Is that what they are supposed to be?) They are kinda cute, but kinda strange at the same time!
Oh man, you could spend a lot of time between those two places. Art of Disney - I just want to take a picture of nearly every item they have!
More MeMom pics to tide me over these last days!
I'll try to put some more up this afternoon when I get home. I bet your house is bustling with activity and excitement!


Can't believe I never went into Mousegear. Probably a good thing now that I think about it....
My DD likes CLub Penguin.
You've probably saved yourself some money.
Feel free to tell us more about Club Penguin. I'm going to try to watch it and see what it is all about.
$11.92 for a pound of jellybeans

Ewww... Only at Disney, right? That is an awful lot and those lil' bag seem to fill up so quickly!
Memom...just changed the second portion of our 3 week long vacay to AKL....think my kids will be soooo excited. We had some extra DVC points to use vs paying off site. You like the lodge, huh? First time for us!
That's what I was thinking! The first few ounces weren't so bad, but when you look at it as nearly twelve bucks a pound, that's crazy!!!
I have not been fortunate enough to stay at Animal Kingdom Lodge, but we always go to visit. We usually get something to eat at Mara and go sit by the pool to eat. Brooklynn has pool-hopped there a few times - right there in the zero entry section. None of us grown ups have, but we didn't think it was too unlawful to let her play right there at the water's edge for a few minutes. We will stay there someday, no doubt. I hope
CP has lots of good pictures from her stay there this week, and she can fill us in on the reality of staying there versus the dream. I hope it has been great for them and that they haven't been disappointed.
***************************
I hope everyone has a Fabulous Friday!
To all of those leaving this weekend, have a great trip! I hope you will PM each other and arrange to hook up for a minute to say a DIS hello to each other. Bring back lots of good pictures to get us through until the end of July. We're at 42 days, 22 hours, and 2 minutes until take-off. It's pretty cool knowing we're just about ready to roll over into the 30's on that countdown!
