Glad you were able to switch around your FP+ and take advantage of the 4th one!
Wow, Paxton looks SO happy to be at the Disney Jr. show! Look at that dimple! Too cute.
I love Gone With the Wind too!
I actually read the book first, so I kinda favor that, but love the movie too! I don't remember seeing that dress in there either.
Cool that you got a DIS-meet in!
Hmmm, maybe I should dust off the Wii and get Izzy going on Toy Story Mania.
What a cool Kids Meal! Really cute and lots of good things to munch on too.
That sounds like an amazing ToT ride - wow!
So nice that you got to meet up with an old friend! Disney is a great place for that.
That dimple comes out every time he's really excited, so needless to say, we see it a LOT when we're in Disney World! He definitely loves the Disney Jr. show.
Maybe the dress is a newer addition? I was pretty young the first time I saw the movie, so I had seen it a few times by the time I read the book in high school. I was working a summer job at my mom's daycare that she owned, and would read it while the kids were napping. I remember one of the other girls was so shocked that I would read a book that big FOR FUN!
Paxton LOVES playing TSM on the Wii now...he's hooked!! Definitely something Izzy may enjoy, especially since it involves button pushing and remote waving.
Now I'm even more excited for the Disney Jr. show! All 3 boys LOVE everything on Disney Junior so they will love it for sure. It looks like Paxton enjoyed it! And the gold doubloons!!
DHS seems like the weak spot for QS restaurants. But I'm going to have to keep my eye out for that Lightning McQueen bucket!
And that ToT sequence sound amazing!!
Can't wait to hear more!
It's definitely a hit for any kid who even remotely likes Disney Jr. It's kind of sad because DS is just discovering shows like Little Einsteins, Special Agent Oso and Handy Manny via the Disney Jr. app and growing to love them all, just as they are all being removed from the parks! Oh well, he still enjoys the new stuff. Gold doubloons are always a must!
It really is the hardest place to find QS food. We usually eat at Sci Fi for lunch for that reason, but with such a short trip we didn't want to waste a lot of time at meals. It was okay food, and the Lightning bucket was a plus.
It's incredible...absolutely my favorite!!
nice morning timing - you made the 9:40 Dis Jr show and did so much beforehand!! love that! Looks like Paxton loved the show, I'm hoping Aria likes it more now, IDK what was wrong in
Disneyland. Her favorite is jake!
GMR will go about the same for us I think too, but I am planning to ride in August. We'll see!
I laughed at your Wii comment! I need to do that too, going to have to blow off quite a bit of dust though. IDK the last time it was on, but we have the TSMM game as well! Not sure if she would get it quite yet, but it wouldn't hurt to try!
That bucket looks very cool for a Cars loving little boy!
Great DIS meets!!! Hoping we have an overlap at some point soon!
We hit the ground running, that's for sure. Too bad she didn't enjoy it as much in DL, but hopefully she will like it more on your next trip.
GMR always seems so tame in my mind when I'm thinking about it, then we get on it and I'm like, "Whyyyy did we do this?!"
It's more the loud noises than anything else!
Before letting Paxton play, we hadn't turned that thing on to play a game in years! I forgot how fun it was to play, so I've enjoyed playing it with him the past couple weeks.
With how much you & Aria are there, I can't believe it hasn't happened yet!! Hopefully soon!!
aw looks like your son loved Disney Jr Live! I think it is a pretty fun show and I think the kids just love seeing characters they've only seen on TV come to "life" .... plus it's got gold dabloons for them to catch and other fun stuff!
Glad you were able to reschedule your FP+ => it really seems like when it works right FP+ can be a major, well, plus ... but IT issues can prevent everyone from having great experiences
You got some great pictures on the Great Movie Ride (which I guess is appropriate
)
Yeah for DISMeet! That's great that you got to meet up with Brenda! And then one of your friends as well - Disney bringing together friends both old and new!
Ooh, does sound like a good sequence on ToT
He definitely loves that show, so it's become a must-do in DHS. I think you got it right, it's probably so exciting to them just to see their favorite shows and characters come to life right in front of them like that.
That's absolutely what we found when it came to using FP+ and the
MDE app! When it worked, it was great, but when it didn't, it became a huge headache.
It was so great getting to meet Brenda, and catching up with an old friend! Love how Disney brings people together!!
Sounds like quite a day at DHS! FP+ is definitely cool for the fact that you change your reservation on the fly. DS looks so happy watching the Disney Jr show! So nice that you got to catch up with an old friend at Disney too
We loved being able to change our reservations on the fly, and we did so a couple more times over the weekend. The only thing I hated was having to go to the kiosk to book additional FP+ after using up our original 3. Hopefully they improve the stability of the app and make it possible to book additional FP+ there.
Paxton looks super excited in Disney Jr Live. My nephews really loved the show, too.
Yay for so many meet ups!!
Despite the rain it looks like a really fun morning.
It's a great show for little ones! They all get pretty excited about it.
We definitely made the best of the day despite the rain. With only a couple of days, we didn't really have any other choice!
wow I just read my last comment, that was supposed to be at Epcot not at Saturday, haha.
Looks like an exciting morning at DHS so far! The Disney Jr show looks really cute, maybe we can attempt it in December at almost 2.5. I love the pictures of Paxton with Lightening and Mater, didn't he thumbs up last year too? So cute! I haven't done GMR in a few years and I forgot that gangster scene is loud and probably scary to little ears. Your lunch looked good from Backlot Express. The cars bucket that Paxton's came in is so cute! So awesome that you got to meet up with Brenda and an old friend!
While I didn't know which park you had been too, I was pretty sure "Saturday" was supposed to be one of them!!
I think at that age, Gavin will probably enjoy it! There's singing, dancing, bubbles, gold doubloons...what's not to like?? It's definitely a good transition show, because they don't have to sit still and be quiet for the whole thing like some other shows.
He did do the thumbs up last year too! It just happens when he's meeting his buds.
He still loves that Lightning bucket and wants to carry things in it all the time. Definitely money well spent on lunch there!
Disney Jr Live came along right about the time my DD thought she was too old for it but it looks adorable and Paxton looked like he was having so much fun!
It's a cute show for the younger crowd, but if you never got to see it, you aren't missing too much!
It wouldn't be a day in DHS if Paxton didn't stop by and say hello to his buds, Lightning McQueen and Mater!
How cool, you got to meet Brenda! I feel like
everyone has had a DISmeet with her. She's like the DISmeet queen! She's on my list of DISers to meet one day.
That does sound like an awesome ride sequence on ToT. I'll admit, I don't ride that particular ride, but I always have to listen to Alex complain/rave about the sequences he's stuck with. So I can appreciate the fact that you got a good one.
So true!!! It won't be the last time they make an appearance in this TR, either.
I think everyone HAS had a meet with Brenda! She's EVERYWHERE! And such a sweetheart!!
No ToT?!
That makes me sad!! Just kidding, but if Alex has ever had that sequence, I'm sure he can attest to the fact that it's AWESOME!
I get scared enough on TOT as it is.
