[jj0plin]

Great update and pictures! The "spa" looks wonderful!

 

[disney<333]

What a fun night!! All of the activities sound like so much fun. How is anyone able to drag themselves out of there to go to the parks?

 

[MAGICFOR2]

How special for little Miss Princess to get so much pampering and special treatment! Makes me really appreciate GKTW!

 

[Millie12591]

Just wanted to pop in (I've been in bed sick) and say that I absolutely LOVE the Christmas card...it is wonderful! Looking forward to the next update.

Ms. Kat, I hope your feeling better soon. It would be awful to miss Christmas because your sick.

Feel better soon!

 

[All7OfUs]

I just can't get over how many fun things there are to do at the village! Every time you turned around you were doing something else super fun- That's Nice!!

 

[carissanboys]

A little pampering, a serenade while eating dinner, a carousel ride, and ice cream for dessert - can't beat that!

I love how cheerfully decorated everything is.

 

[dekkerdisneydreamer]

I love that Juliana got to be pampered! That is amazing that they have that little spa! I can't wait to find out what else is there. I'd love to move to Florida, work at WDW, AND volunteer at GKTW! That's not asking for too much, is it?

 

[LilAnn]

Wow, I can't believe how much there is to do at the village! It's so amazing. I agree with a PP, how is anyone ever able to leave that place?

Love that the spa is themed with My Little Ponies. Cute.

I have to say, that while it's amazing that so many Wish families have donated all of those dolls, it creeps me out a bit. I wonder if it's creepy walking through there at night with all of those eyes peering at you?

 

[Emma's Dad]

So I mentioned to you the other day that we watched Letters to God, right? Well... my DD and I were looking at your TR last night and she started crying... then laughing. I asked her what was wrong, and she said "Daddy, I'm sad that she was so sick when she was little... but look what she gets to do now! Can we go there this year? PLEASE!" What a wonderful place to visit! Now... if only I could figure out who sprayed something in the air that is causing my eyes to water...

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Wow, this place still looks amazing! Carousels, gingerbread houses, ice cream parlors...

Unfortunately, I can never, ever show my kids this TR.

 

[TarzansKat]

What a wonderful place GKTW is! I can't get over the la-ti-da spa. I just love the name, never mind the services. And, I...dating myself here...am from the era of My Little Pony, so I'm really excited about one that can be purchased and have the proceeds go to GKTW. I have nieces getting to the My Little Pony age, you know.

 

[FreezinRafiki]

That spa looks pretty cool - especially with the giant/troll thing peaking down.
And all of those dolls are really awesome. Maybe a little creepy having all of them watch you eat, but awesome none the less!

 

[smileycrissy]

Wow, I had no idea how adorable GKTW was and all the amazing stuff they have for the kids. Its so nice to know they seem to have thought of everything to make the stay for the families so special.

Ok I am going to have to call them up and ask them who can I make a check donation out to since they run on donations.

Love the photos of Ana and Mel in the throne, all they needed were some crowns.

 

[IheartDDuck]

That spa really is a cute idea. It's a really nice thing for them to have for the kids. I love all of the pictures, especially the ones showing all of the stuffed animals lining the restaurant!

I'll bet that Juliana loved spending the time in the "spa" and getting her nails done. That would be such an awesome job to have.

 

[tinacaplan]

What a wonderful place GKTW Village is. Amazing. And all the dolls are so moving. Oh, yeah, and Juliana is just super adorable.

 

[that's nice]

Tim I am loving all the info on the Village !! I have never seen many pix of it before

I have more pics of the village coming up later on in the TR!

I am trying to type but the kitten has other ideas!!

UMMMMMMMMMM

I was awake for an update for a change. I was just going to bed when Andy texted me a picture from outside the arena.

Glad you were awake for it!!!
I wonder what 'kind' of picture Andy sent you?

In any event, I love the update. Princess Ana and Mel look great in the throne! And what fun that there were kids singing carolers at dinner. And that ice cream looks yummy. I love Ana's choice of ride on the carousel.

Juliana barely took her eyes off the carolers... She clapped after every one. She really enjoyed that.

thanks for our lastest update Tim! what a wonderful spa, getting pampered must of been fun for Ana, love the spa name! love all the pictures too!!
my DD used to have so many my little ponies, what a great thing they do for GKTW!!

will wait patiently for the next update

The Spa was really cute, and Juliana had a great time there.

Juliana got a kick out of the Pony theme because she has a ton of My Little Ponies... yes, toys are going in cycles. They are back! LOL

 

[that's nice]

Great update and pictures! The "spa" looks wonderful!

Thanks!!! You should have your DD check out the spa!!

What a fun night!! All of the activities sound like so much fun. How is anyone able to drag themselves out of there to go to the parks?

Good question! I think we fought with Juliana about leaving GKTW once or twice...

How special for little Miss Princess to get so much pampering and special treatment! Makes me really appreciate GKTW!

Juliana really enjoyed getting her nails done. The spa was really cute too. GKTW does a great job having activities for the kids.

I just can't get over how many fun things there are to do at the village! Every time you turned around you were doing something else super fun- That's Nice!!

Can you believe up to the orientation we were only at GKTW for about 3 1/2 hours? There was so much for Juliana to do and see, we kinda went through it very quickly.

A little pampering, a serenade while eating dinner, a carousel ride, and ice cream for dessert - can't beat that!

You got that right!!!

I love how cheerfully decorated everything is.

You really can't help but smile when you are taking in all the sights.

 

[dizneeat]

GKTW is an awesome place! I love that Juliana got her spa treatment! And having a choir sing while having dinner sure helps with the holiday spirit!

More please!

 

[that's nice]

I love that Juliana got to be pampered! That is amazing that they have that little spa! I can't wait to find out what else is there. I'd love to move to Florida, work at WDW, AND volunteer at GKTW! That's not asking for too much, is it?

I think you are on to something... I hope you can handle the summer heat in Florida though!

Wow, I can't believe how much there is to do at the village! It's so amazing. I agree with a PP, how is anyone ever able to leave that place?

Love that the spa is themed with My Little Ponies. Cute.

I have to say, that while it's amazing that so many Wish families have donated all of those dolls, it creeps me out a bit. I wonder if it's creepy walking through there at night with all of those eyes peering at you?

It's not so much having the stuffed animals staring at you... it's more the dolls. That was a little weird. I guess if I didn't like it, I shouldn't of looked up!

So I mentioned to you the other day that we watched Letters to God, right? Well... my DD and I were looking at your TR last night and she started crying... then laughing. I asked her what was wrong, and she said "Daddy, I'm sad that she was so sick when she was little... but look what she gets to do now! Can we go there this year? PLEASE!" What a wonderful place to visit! Now... if only I could figure out who sprayed something in the air that is causing my eyes to water...

Awww Don... your DD is too sweet! Juliana is only 1 1/2 years away from being considered cured.... so she is getting there. As she gets older there will be a few issues we will have to deal with considering she only has one kidney, but she really doesn't have too many restrictions.

You know, you really need to dust more often... yea that's it, it was probably the dust.

Wow, this place still looks amazing! Carousels, gingerbread houses, ice cream parlors...

Unfortunately, I can never, ever show my kids this TR.

You can show them, but you will have to skip over the GKTW parts. I'm sure you will be able to make something up to tell them.

 

[that's nice]

What a wonderful place GKTW is! I can't get over the la-ti-da spa. I just love the name, never mind the services. And, I...dating myself here...am from the era of My Little Pony, so I'm really excited about one that can be purchased and have the proceeds go to GKTW.

I was from the era of My Little Pony too. Luckily for me, I was a boy!

Unfortunately, Hasbro doesn't make the Twinkle Hope Pony anymore. It was a limited edition that came out in 2008. I have already bid on two different ones for sale on ebay but have lost both auctions. I thought it would be cool for Juliana to have the Twinkle Hope one. They sell them on amazon for $50!

That spa looks pretty cool - especially with the giant/troll thing peaking down.

Melody didn't even notice the troll. When she saw the picture, she was wondering where I took it.

And all of those dolls are really awesome. Maybe a little creepy having all of them watch you eat, but awesome none the less!

I wonder if any of those dolls have ever fallen off those shelves? Imagine eating and one of those falls down and joins you at your table?

Wow, I had no idea how adorable GKTW was and all the amazing stuff they have for the kids. Its so nice to know they seem to have thought of everything to make the stay for the families so special.

Ok I am going to have to call them up and ask them who can I make a check donation out to since they run on donations.

Love the photos of Ana and Mel in the throne, all they needed were some crowns.

If you wanted to donate I know of 2 links you can use.. There is one on the DIS Dad's Club Page CLICK HERE or there is one that has been posted on the WISH TRIPPERS thread... the goal of this one is 1 MILLION DOLLARS!!!!! HERE

I see your weather is going to get cold again next week.. but it looks like it is only going to be cold for a few days before warming up again
