Around 11 we headed over to Crystal Palace for our lunch adr. there isn't anything I don't like about this restraunt. I love whinnie the Pooh and the decorations in here are my kind of heaven. Oh, and I can't believe I almost forgot, the food!
While we were waiting on the porch a little boy attached himself to Evan. He looked about 3 or 4 and his name was Evan too. It was really cute.
Since this was mil's first character meal, I explained to her how it works. You stuff your face and the character's come to you. Pretty easy. I should have known better.
Just a few minutes after we sat down tigger snuck up behind Bailie.....
She pretended not to like being attacked by Tigger from behind, but she can't fool me. There's nothing she likes more than being the center of attention.
Ethan couldn't wait for the buffet....
Our server told us we had about 15 minutes untill Eeyore would be to our table. Like a pack of ravenous wolves my kids headed to the kill. You'd think I never fed these boys!
I explained again to MIL that if she wanted to see eeyore she'd need to
be back at the table.
Well eeyore came by and she was still at the buffet. I wasn't too worried because she isn't a big lover of Pooh & Friends, not to mention she's a certified senior citizen.
a little food.....
Eeyore was a couple tables past us by the time Mil made it back. I have no idea why it took her 25 minutes to get one plate of food. It wasn't even that busy yet.
She set her things on the table and started to go after eeyore! D.Jay told her AGAIN that you have to wait untill they are at your table. she didn't seem to understand what was wrong with interupting when he was with a family with young kids.
We convinced her to sit down and wait her turn. But for the next 45 minutes that's all we heard about. where was eeyore, when would he get back to our table?
I was seriously baffled by this. I'm the disney freak! She watches an occasional disney movie with us, but other than that she never mentions it.
But here she was acting like a 4 year old who just missed her favorite princess. Belle is my favorite, and I've missed her a couple times but I don't act like it's the end of the world.
she was contented for a while when Pooh showed up....
As soon as he was gone Mil was back to her sudden Eeyore obsession. by this time even Ethan was annoyed by her.
She still thought that she should just go catch him "in between tables".
I looked at D.Jay and he looked really close to loosing his patience with her.
She took another break in her desperate stalking of eeyore to meet with Piglet.
After we met with Piglet it was time to go. I just about blew a gasket when Mil freaked out about us not waiting another 30 minutes for eeyore to get back to our table. Sometimes I'd swear she is a 4 year old in the body of an old lady.
who other than a toddler would be so obbsessed about this?
I just headed for the door because I wasn't going to be around when she was kicked out of the place for going postal.
My back and foot had been killing me all morning and all of our neves were a little frazzled by the eeyore stalking. Not to mention how cold it was outside.
D.Jay told Mil that we were going back to the resort for a few hours so I could rest and we could all get warm. He stronly urged her to stay at the park so she could enjoy it without worring about he rest of us.
I swear I heard angels singing when she said she'd stay.
Once we were back at the resort, I laid down for a little nap while D.jay took he kids to the arcade. We were given 2, 30 minute arcade cards with our package.
As I was laying there I mentaly smacked myself upside the head for my brilliant idea of bring mil with us. I was praying that either she'd stop acting like a toddler or I'd learn a little more tolerance and love.
up next...parades and headaches.
