Thanks for the tips -- we will definitely plan on Conservation Station early and look for those Hidden Mickeys.
Oh, wow, imagine my delight to find that yet another incarnation of HSM3 is playing (not!). I am sure we will see bits and pieces of about five of those shows since I think they play them once an hour.
I love the shopping pics! I never get tired of DIS shopping with MeMom!
I'll show you pictures of some cool stuff when I get to that part of the report.
I think we saw/heard parts of HSM3 three times in the time we were there. I'm sure it helps calm down the lines at the big rides for a few minutes here and there, so that's nice. I didn't see it from start to finish, but I may do that when there is more time this summer.
I never get tired of DIS shopping either!
So I think I am in love! I love the Peter Pan ornament.... that just might be Luke's first ornament.... who does not want to have a boy who has spirit like Peter Pan!
As long as you don't put Luke in the green tights, he can keep the PP spirit.
It is a cute ornament.
Thanks for the Little Mermaid pics! DH has never seen it, so it was nice to be able to show him some pictures of what to expect! I'm sorry you missed Brooklynn on this, but, how long until you are viewing this with her and the rest of your family?!!
I have to say again, that your merchandise/shopping pictures never fail to put a smile on my face! How did you know that they were especially needed this week?
Can't wait to hear your review of
Earth! We were talking about movies to see after graduation, and I hope this will still be showing.
It'll be about another 90 something days, and it'll be much more enjoyable with all of them with me.
Doesn't window shopping
always brighten a girl's day?
I don't know how long it'll be out in theaters. I hope you get to see it, but if not, surely it will make its way to home video.
ray and i actually went in there while we were waiting on chris and luke to go to the men's room as we were leaving DHS in december. there wasn't much in there!
these look familiar.

you will see that i went a little ornament crazy later in our trip. what can i say - all ornaments were 50% off!!!!!
that's why i love your TRs.
I think you just have to have the time to go through the stuff at Sid's. I think it's a unique little shop, so I go through there off and on just to look at a few pictures and posters. I think I have only ever bought one thing there, but I can't remember what it even was.
(A poster, I think, a long time ago.)
I didn't see any half off sales, unfortunately. I'll look for good deals this summer. I'm thinking about getting Bella and Brooklynn the birthday ones and personalizing them for their tree. You would really have to be celebrating a birthday to give them, but rather they could just be reminders of their special dates.
Great update and piccies!
I am so torn between whether or not to keep reading on here - it feels like my heart breaks everytime I see something that I love and remember it'll be AGES before we get to go again!!!
I am trying to persuade my family to do a
Disneyland Paris trip for my 30th in August but its not the same!!!
Can't you adopt me so I can come and visit and go with you soon???

Hope everyone has a good weekend and may I say "Happy Baby Due Date" to me!

I was thinking of you early this morning, since so often it's just me, you, and
CP on in the morniings. I'm glad to hear from you. By this time next week, I hope you have had the little one and are back home putting up pictures for us to see. We wish you the best in the days ahead! Let us know as soon as you can. Tell your husband not to leave your Dis friends out when he's contacting people!
Happy Baby Due date to you!

Hope your little ones arrives safe and healthy soon! Hope its an easy delivery!
Yeah, what she said.
Did you really think so? We were in there last summer and I thought they had many cool items in there. I don't think I would buy a lot of it but I'm not really a collector.
Yeah, I bet collectors appreciate a place like that more than the average guest.
I just think the building and all of its cluttered up look is kinda cool and different, like some off-the-wall roadside shop you might see on other travels.
Voyage of the Little Mermaid is yet another thing I haven't done at HS. Of all the parks, that's probably the one I've explored the least. Probably because I can never get my DH off of ToT and RnR! (He's a thrill ride junkie!)
Your meal at Pop looked quite yummy! I really enjoyed the Pop food court when we stayed there.
There's a lot more to HS than ToT and RnR, so get that man out of the air and onto the ground and go exploring. He may be less than thrilled with mermaids and beasts, but everybody ought to do it all at least once. You can compromise - he gets to pick two things and then you get to pick one. That would be a nice way to play!
He is adorable and I wish he lived at my house. I think John would protest if I bring another stuffed animal into the house.
We always get popcorn buckets. We use them for all kinds of things around the house and they remind us of our happy place for a relatively cheap price.
Happy due date! Hope the little one comes soon, healthy and happy! I'm pretty sure that with Disboard adoption MeMom is now the proud Mom of about 20 and the MeMom to 15 so one more won't be that noticeable!
I wish I had known you wanted him to come and live with you. I could have arranged for that!
I have seven popcorn buckets in my classroom right now. They're great for art supplies. It's a cheap and sneaky way to get my Disnsy touch in.

That is just so pretty! I need to add to my shopping list some Disney reusable bags.
Yes, you need a Mickey tree one!
this was in december so maybe they had changed it up a little? i just remember thinking how i didn't see anything that great in there. but this was at night as we were leaving the park and my brain could have not been working right at that point!
When I've been in there they have had a lot of unique prints and posters, but some are kind of expensive.
Well,
she wanted a big family! Disboard adoption seems to be an economical way to do it!
And MeMom....



for testing being done, right? Hope today is the a wonderful beginning to the end of the year. For the rest of you teachers administering standardized testing too!
Yes, she did!

I guess DIS adoption does help. However, it might get kind of hard to go on our trips if I'm paying for the rooms and big meals for all.
Testing is OVER!
Memom- your animal pictures are great!
Have you used any of them for hanging? I also enjoyed your ornament pictures. We got the Alice one and a few more. I wish I had gotten more because they were 50% off, but I didn't.
Jill- my parents had two children and now they have 6 grandchildren, two are mine and my brother has four girls. My mom is always saying she wants more grandchildren and I tell her she should have had more kids. Two is enough for me.
I have some Polynesian Resort pictures that I really like in my bedroom. I have a collage picture frame of Disney flowers and greenery in my den, too. I haven't framed any animal pictures, because they don't really go with any of the decor in my house. If I ever have an African themed room, I probably will use some of them.
I wanted to be Mrs. Walton - with a bunch of kids and grandkids!
I love to watch old Waltons shows I have on tape.
I love pictures and you always seem to come through MeMom.

If you had to choose between the Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast shows, which would you choose? It seems that it will be hard to fit so many shows into only one day at DHS. I have both girls and a boy to please so it might be hard to do! I loved the Christmas store at DD too. So many fun ornaments.

Your sandwich looks yummy! What was it that Kay ordered?
I would choose Beauty and the Beast. There is more color and there are more characters. It is a longer show, too. I hope you can fit them both in, but if not, I would go for Beauty and the Beast without a doubt.
Kay ordered a flatbread, and I think it might have been a chicken flatbread.
