Haha, I love that your wife got a parasol! I did too, they were just too cute!
I'm glad you finished up your trip report!
We also loved the view from the Blue Bayou seating, but I thought our meal was awesome, too. What did you guys choose? We thought it was close to the best meal we had on our trip. The best meal may have been Steakhouse 55 for breakfast, and it was pretty affordable too. A little fancy but also empty, there was no need for our reservations.
I had posted before about taking breaks with kids, and now that I've been on that trip, I think my opinions have changed! We went back for a break on 3 of 4 days, in the afternoon when it got super hot. We enjoyed the pool on 2 of the 3 days, I enjoyed it solo on one day. But none of the kids would take a nap, or lay down and watch TV or RELAX. So the adults were the only ones who wanted to enjoy nap time... We did feed them out of the grocery order so that cut food costs in the parks. I think I might do pool days every other day, and just stay in the parks and use shows as breaks every other day. We missed almost every show because the kids were all about the rides!
We totally ran the kids ragged trying to get everything in and I very much understand that mixed feeling of sadness to be done and happiness to be finished exhausting myself every day!

We don't have dental insurance for CinderellaLove but fortunately there is a place in town that offers a significant discount to people without insurance, and they are fantastic. over the course of a month we racked up a large bill with them, but except one more procedure, which cannot be done till January. CinderellaLove now has good teeth! 
about 4 doctors and an ER trip later we found someone who would listen, and not just say that since her blood work came back clear that her body could handle the pain and other issues and she did not need any treatment.
