~A XMAS STORY~decorations, crowds, pixies..AND A BLOODY NOSE~ACTUAL UPDATE 11/9 p190

[pooh'smate]

Poor Luke. I am glad it wasn't more serious. I am really looking forward to your next update.

 

[joy13]

Poor Luke - that had to hurt! Glad to hear Disney handled it so well - and good for them for pushing on! Those ornaments are all so cute - I love the set of Mickey heads - I may have to pick some up if they still have them.

 

[IluvXU]

Only at Disney would they apologize and be so attentive to something that just happens sometimes! Poor Luke, but it was so nice of them to try to make some magic for them all!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

I feel so bad about poor Luke's nose and mouth. He really fell hard, and he was having so much fun! I'm glad you were all able to keep enjoying the night. Love the ornaments

 

[All7OfUs]

Only Disney would offer such amazing service like that!! I can't imagine anywhere else where EMT's can be there by your side in 5 minutes or less, except maybe at a ball game.

So happy they chose to stay though, and that it didn't mess up the magic too much!

Great party pix!!

Hi Dawn! I am enjoying your trip report! So nice to hear Luke still enjoyed the eveing after a horrible fall.

We had a change of plans and decided to go to disney this december for the holidays! I am enjoying looking forward to my trip by reading about yours. thanks again for sharing!

 

[KristinAnne]

Poor Luke! He's a tough little guy though. I hope he was able to have a good time for the rest of the night, despite the accident.

 

[stacikristine]

Poor Luke-Man! That is so sad. But he's a brave little guy for wanting to stay and finish the night. That's awesome that the CMs and Management handled it all so well though!! Disney really is one-of-a-kind! Those ornaments are adorable!!! So cute!

 

[MagicShell]

Poor Luke. I'm glad he didn't break anything. I do not handle my children getting hurt very well, so I feel for Anna. It sounds like they all had some more fun after the accident. Your ornaments are pretty. We got an Alice one ourselves. I wish I had gotten more than I did because they were half price when we were there as well.

 

[kschafer]

Reading the story made me think "oh, poor luke!" but seeing the picture of that poor swollen lip brought tears to this momma's eyes! So nice to hear that the CM's were so attentive and generous! Can't wait for the fireworks and parade

 

[Happy Elf]

Oh, poor Luke! That lip looks awful! Glad nothing was broken!

I liked the ornaments you got. Love, love, love the Dumbo one! So cute! I should have looked a little closer at the ornaments while we were there. Not that we need any....I already have enough for probably 3 or 4 trees!

Can't wait for fireworks pictures!

 

[xoktenox]

Aww, poor Luke!! I was thinking the other day that we still hadn't gotten to the bloody nose part of your TR title so I knew it had to be coming up soon! Glad to see he's alright though and that Disney did a good job of handling it all

I'm so excited to get pictures with all the characters in their Christmas gear! And try some of that yummy, delicious hot chocolate too of course

 

[Sunset Cliffs]

The story about Luke brought instant tears to my eyes! And it made me want to give Anna a hug. I am not looking forward to my little guy's first major injury, so I can imagine how she was feeling through the whole thing.

You found some great ornaments! My favorite is the castle that lights up.

 

[winkers]

Poor Luke! That looks painfull!

I love the Dumbo ornament!

I'm glad you got some of the hot chocolate.

 

[FauntleroyFAN07]

so thats where the bloody nose in the title comes in, i thought it was something that ray did on the trip and got a bloody nose...sorry it was the little man who it happened too.

 

[LISAMWDW]

Happy Belated Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!

Great update! So sorry about Luke, poor guy!!! How wonderful Disney was about it though!!!!!!!!!!

Can't wait for more!

 

[TiffinyKC]

OK...I have been lurking on your thread longer than I care to admit...there, I've said it. It's actually kind of creepy when you think about it.

I've really enjoyed reading your report (Disney subjects and non-Disney subjects...the Killers rock, by the way). I've managed to do all of my reading without actually posting until now. Poor Luke, I am just heartbroken that he's the one who got the bloody nose, and such a bad one too! That's not to say that I would have enjoyed any of your other group getting one ...I was just really holding out hope that it wasn't the little man. Geez.

Well, I've broken my silence now. I love checking in on your report.

 

[DisneyJo]

Poor little Luke it looks like he really did go down hard, sounds as though he was very well cared for though!

Love all your ornaments and great they were half price

 

[MaceysMom]

Thank God Luke didn't break his nose! Poor little guy. Macey fell like that lat summer and ended up with five stitches. I understand about Anna losing it. I think I gave myself a panic attack.


All of your ornaments are just adorable. I am hoping to find some cute ones when I go. I love the Mickey heads.

 

[punkin413]

OMG! Poor Luke! That's great that people got there so quick to look at him. I know having an audience just would make things worse!

Hey, the step-sister in the green/bue whatever you want to call it..she's the one we met at 1900 PF I think! You'll see in my update way later.

I was watching The Real Housewives of Atlanta the other day and thought of you because in the beginning thing where they show them all standing together, they're all holding out peaches and you've never seen a peach tree! Haha.

cool that you met the same stepsister! they are always so hysterical. i know...luke was so pitiful. and if those chicks live in atlanta they got those peaches from the grocery store because there's not ANY peachtrees in atlanta!!!!

Aww, poor Luke!!!! You know, I have been dying to know got the bloody nose ever since I saw you guys at the Killer's concert!!!!! Now I know...and I feel awful!!!!! Poor little guy!

i know...he was so pitiful!

Oh my goodness! Poor little Luke! I can just imagine how horrible he must have felt!

Kudos to Disney for handling the entire situation so well! I am impressed -- as I always am by Disney!

I love all the ornaments you got -- especially the Alice one!

So, Ray wasn't kidding when he said it was the best hot chocolate ever! I wonder how they make it?

he was such a trooper. and yes, disney definitely impressed that night. i don't know what they put in that hot chocolate but it was SO good!

*gasp pant pant breaaaaaaaaaathe*

PHEW I can stop holding my breath now. LMAO

Great update, poor wee little Luke :O(
Sounds like it was handled well by all .

sorry bout that.....hope you didn't do any permanent damage holding your breath. yes, luke was a strong dude that night.

I am not surprised by the Disney mgmt helping out and being so generous. It was part of our jobs to keep the magic going when i worked at DLR. It was deeply rewarding to be able to assist in both magic making and in helping those in need.

Poor Luke. He looks both tired and a bit sad.

It looks like the party was going well inspite of the accident!

Was it terribly cold that night?

Can't wait to see the fireworks pix!

it's so nice to know how attentive they are in situations where bad things happen at the happiest place on earth! no, it wasn't cold that night. that was actually the warmest day/night of the trip. it was the first night i didn't need a jacket and gloves! it was around 70 degrees, i think. it really warmed up that day.

Poor Lukeand Anna
So glad to hear that the CNs were so helpful and kind!!

i know....i felt so bad for them! and the CMs were so AWESOME from what anna said!

I'M SO EXCITED!!!!
I know I've seen them before, but don't think I have access back to them.
Can't wait to see again!!!

Here's hoping I will at least be wearing a sweatshirt for the Christmas party on my BIRTHDAY this year!!!

I know Dawn said it was cool some, but the year before when Matt and I were there it was like 80+ during the day and not even cool enough when the sun went down to wear a pullover Matt kept making fun of me b/c I had brought like 2-3 sweatshirts, and never got to wear them

plus i don't know that you've seen the video and i'll post that too....it will get you excited for your trip! winter weather in florida is so crazy. i hope it's not hot for you this year. but i also hope it's not as cold as it was for us at DHS....that was crazy!

So glad to hear how well Disney treated Luke when he fell but I am sorry he fell. He really did have a SWOLEN lip.

What great ornaments you found. Were the 1/2 price just during the party or always 1/2 price?

The castle picture of you two is beautiful.

poor little guy! no, they were half price for a couple of days that were there and it was at all the parks/resorts/DTD. anything christmas-related was half off. great deals!
