Alohaaaaa!!! Let's do the hula!!!!!! TR LINK ADDED

How exciting!
I love your plans...but no AK? Didn't you say NEXT trip you would go? I think you really should. ;)

I would LOVE an adults only trip. I would even love a ME only trip! :laughing:
 
So, Chad's mom called me tonight to tell me she talked to FIL about next September. Now, Disney isn't really his cup of tea. He doesn't understand why we want to stand in line to get pictures with characters, he also doesn't do good with rude people which we all know we encounter anywhere. Well, as she was telling him what she wanted to do for her birthday, he said, "I am looking forward to it!" HUH.......what did he just say????? I asked her if he was being facetious! ;) He said, no he is excited about it! YAY!!!!! So, as of right now its Chad and I, his mom and stepdad, his granddad, his stepsister and her hubby and his stepbrother!
Now, MIL lets me plan everything!! From picking the dates to where we have our ADR's. She said she wants to do a character breakfast together and also go to Epcot together. Now, on the other days everyone can pick what they want to do. So, Chad and I are gonna go to Magic Kingdom. The dates I am gonna pick are hopefully gonna have a MNSSHP on one of those dates so Chad and I can go to it. He said he would feel bad about us going for the first time to MNSSHP without Hollie and Hannah.

Glad everyone is on board for the adults only trip and excited about it too !! It's awesome that you will get to plan all the details , at least you know you are in love with everything your doing on the trip !! I totally know how Chad feels about the party , I would also feel guilty about the girls not being there but then again I'm one of those that feels guilty for leaving my kids behind on any kind of trip. lol Everyone has there own feelings and likes to do things there way and what I always say is each to there own , all that matters is that your ok with it !

Can't wait to see more plans for both your trips popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::
 
Oh my gosh, Heather...an adult's only trip? That will be so much fun! :banana: MNSSHP will be a blast I'm sure!!! It may be a little hard not being able to take Hollie and Hannah for your 1st time, but that just means you'll have to experience it again!!! :thumbsup2
 
Oooh, an adults only trip!:thumbsup2 Sounds fabulous to me Heather.:goodvibes I'm sure you'll miss your sweet girls but man, to have an adults only trip would be like a slice of heaven!

I am really excited about it!! Of course that means I will come home with lots of goodies for the girls!! lol

I think your ADR's look great and your Feb. trip should be awesome, crowds should be L-O-W! We're actually toying around with a short Feb. trip around that same time. It's before Mardi Gras, President's Day and spring break. Can't go wrong there!

I sure hope the crowds are very low!! No way!! Please let me know if you guys are there the same time!!

We did the MNSSHP last year and are doing it again this Oct. It's so much fun! This time I'm planning to stay much longer than we did last time when we were with my in-laws.:yay: I'm sure you and Chad will have a blast, are you going to dress up? I never have enough courage to do it!:laughing:

I am really excited to go to the party! I would love to dress up, but I think we will wait till we take Hollie and Hannah. Hollie says she wants us to go as the Incredibles! lol

I'm glad too that everyone seems to be onboard with the trip too! That always helps with the planning. What character breakfast are you going to do? Our favorite is probably the Ohana one with Lilo, Stitch, Mickey and Pluto. Chef Mickey's is really fun too though.:goodvibes

Well, I am pretty sure it will be Chef Mickey's or Crystal Palace!

So how's sweet little Hannah doing? I'm sure she's already growing by leaps and bounds. Is that the correct expression? It looked weird when I typed it!:laughing:

She is growing like a weed!! We took her to her 1 month appointment and she is now 11 lbs and 12 ounces!! A little chunk!! lol!!
LOL!! Oh no, I like the leaps and bounds!! lol

Yes, you truly will have fun, and it's only a short time away from the girls. You can have fun shopping for them. :goodvibes



P.S.
Ten days until the Great Atlanta Cupcake Meet! :dance3:

I know I will be shopping like crazy for them!! lol!

I know!! I am so excited!!!!!!! I wish you could have seen Hollie's face when I told her there would be cupcakes!! :)

you will get SO much candy! when erica and i went we saw kids with bags and bags of it. we only got a couple of pieces. what were we thinking??????? :rotfl:

Chad will be so happy to know that!! lol!!!

As long as I see chocolate, I am there!! ha ha

Ooh an adults-only trip sounds amazing! I love looking at pictures of MNSSHP, Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. you are going to have so much fun!

I love looking at the MNSSHP pics too!!! In fact, I search the trip reports like crazy for them!! lol!! Halloween is my favorite!!! :)

Last time Jamie and I went to one we hit all the candy stops, I told her we needed to make up for the cost of the ticket :goodvibes we went back to the hotel and swapped candy for quite a while ;)

I am really excited about it!!! Look out candy, here we come!! lol

How exciting!
I love your plans...but no AK? Didn't you say NEXT trip you would go? I think you really should. ;)

I would LOVE an adults only trip. I would even love a ME only trip! :laughing:

LOL!! I know, I know! I really think when we take Hannah when its just us 4, we are gonna hit each park!

Me too!! A me trip sounds pretty good too!! lol

I am so glad I get to do the planning!! I just love doing that!
I have a feeling I will be coming home with tons of Halloween disney stuff for the girls!
Oh there were a couple of times Chad and I went out of town without Hollie and I would cry like a baby!!

Oh my gosh, Heather...an adult's only trip? That will be so much fun! :banana: MNSSHP will be a blast I'm sure!!! It may be a little hard not being able to take Hollie and Hannah for your 1st time, but that just means you'll have to experience it again!!! :thumbsup2

I am so excited for it!!!!

That is exactly what I was thinking!! We will get to experience it again!! But, the 2nd time will be in costume! lol
 

Ok Heather, I have to share this with you because I know you'll appreciate it!:goodvibes

Yesterday DH was talking about a Disney cruise at some point. Not anytime real soon but he's interested. So I told my 3DD's that we might do a cruise sometime. My oldest was like 'No way Mom! I don't want to end up like Rose in the freezing ocean, with the ship going down!' Yup, I've effectively scarred my children for life now. (I only let them see bits and pieces of Titanic of course, it's not exactly G rated!) Now they'll never set foot on a cruise ship and it's all my fault.:eek: Yup, one of my finest parenting moments. But I knew you'd appreciate this story since you love Titanic like I do!:laughing:

OMG, LOL!!! That is too funny!!! Bless her heart!!! ha ha ha

You know, I always told Chad if we ever went on a cruise we would have to watch that first!!! ha ha

I bet you started laughing!!! LOL!!!

Aww, now it makes me want to go watch it!! :goodvibes

I know! I'm totally in the mood to watch it now too! Amazon had a 10 year anniversary edition I wanted to get but when I checked on it again, it's gone:sad1:! It had footage from the making of it and other cool stuff. I only have the boring regular version.

That's funny what you told Chad!:laughing: My DH would roll his eyes till he had a headache if I said we had to watch it before we go on a cruise.:laughing: Honestly, I'd feel a little bit elegant if I were on a cruise, all I need is one of Rose's fabulous outfits! I really think the movie has romanticized my whole idea of going on a cruise...imagine strolling the decks at sunset, waltzing into dinner and then dancing an Irish jig with the poor folks in the lower class rooms!:laughing:

Oh gosh, we have that 10 year! Chad bought it for me when it came out. We have both editions of it! lol!! Which is funny because I always have to have an anniversary edition of any movie I like. That way if one messes up I have another! Weird I know...lol

LOL!!!! I would feel elegant too!!! I still need to get my costumes made so I can be Rose one year for Halloween!! Oh I am all about dancing the Irish jig....:banana::banana:
 
I wanted to share with you some pictures that we took of my mom with the girls. It was a couple of weekends ago and we were going to a baby shower and my mom decided she needed some new grandbaby pictures! :)

Awww, beautiful pics Heather!:goodvibes Hannah is absolutely adorable! She's pink and just perfect.:cutie: Love the one of Hollie holding her, you should frame it. I also love the one with Hollie driving!:laughing: What a little ham, she's a cutie. It definitely looks like sweet little Hannah is growing beautifully.

Babies are the best! My middle DD was a little chunk when she was born which is funny because now she's the thinnest out of my three girls. Anyway, my Aunt used to tell me to put her in a dress so she can squeeze her little chubby thighs!:laughing: And she would do it! Sigh, I miss those baby days! They go lightening fast, right? Thanks for sharing your pictures, your girls are gorgeous.:goodvibes:goodvibes
 
The pictures are so adorable! I love the first in the car! That is priceless!!

I laughed on the comment about the Titanic...Chris wants to go on a cruise for his Christmas present. He couldn't get Madison on board. Turned out (after much discussion) it is because when we were in Orlando we went to the Titanic museum and she is now afraid of getting on a boat because it may sink! :lmao: I am glad to know my DD is not the only one afraid due to her parents exposing her to tragedy!! :rotfl:

I noticed you chose Chef Mickey's for breakfast and supper...we have done both and I like the dinner menu! Both are good and one of our favorite character meals!
 
I am so glad I get to do the planning!! I just love doing that!

Oh there were a couple of times Chad and I went out of town without Hollie and I would cry like a baby!!

I :love: planning too ! Although some think I'm crazy :laughing: but who needs them lol

Oh I'm sure Hollie and Hannah will get quite the Halloween collection ! I can't wait to get Halloween stuff myself and I will in 13 days woo hoo !!

Awe you poor thing , I know this girl would shed some tears too !!

Great pictures of your Mom & The girls , the car ones are my fav's !!

Those pictures are adorable. Is that outfit Hannah is weraing from Gymboree? I'm pretty sure my neice has that one too.
 
Hey everyone!! We are at the lake and I wanted to jump on here and say to keep sweet Dawn (Punkin413) in your prayers today!!

She is at the hospital and hopefully gonna have her sweet baby boy, Seth, today!! YAY!!!
