Bonus Holiday Trip 2015!
Who, what, where, when, and why
Who (cast): (I am really bad at intros so I'll keep them short!)
Me: Moma or Elmo as my daughter calls me sometimes, half the time she says Elmo, but when she says Moma its the best! ! I love Disney and was really happy I got to squeeze in this trip!
DD: 17 months at the time of the trip, loves Donald and Daisy apparently!
DH: Dada, lets me run with vacation plans, and seem to never catch on to my schemes to plan more trips!
What: Bonus holiday trip to WDW!
Where: WDW, POP Century
When: Nov 30-Dec 1, but I'm going to start this trip report with a quick update on the day before we left (Hope you don't mind)
Why: Last year of the Osborn lights at Hollywood Studios! (And why not??)
Day 0: Black Friday! Still had not packed a thing, luckily I had laid out a few things for DD. My husbands cousin has two girls a little older then DD and his wife had given me a whole bunch of Disney themed clothes in DDs size! I was a little bummed she had some great 12 month stuff but most of the 12 month stuff was to small! Anyway DH was really helpful and watched DD for most of the morning so I could get me and DD packed!
DD did find the Magic Band Box during the process and we had to quickly pack it away to avoid any melt downs! Girl loves her Magic Bands!
Around 11am DD was pretty much packed and I had most of my items set out. I had zero interest in going shopping today, but didn't really want to stay in the house all day it was 60 and gorgeous out! So we decided to head to Sesame Place!
We got there right as it was opening and had a lovey day! We went right to Santa and Elmo. I thought this would help me judge how DD would do in WDW with characters. She was screaming Elmo Elmo but then freaked as we got a little closer, no picture as I didn't pay for it and didn't get one on my phone. We had lunch, rode the carousel, saw a show, played games and saw the parade, we were back in the car around 430. During the show she was screaming Elmo Elmo HI HI the whole time! So that was a positive, from a far we are doing good. We did get a balloon which is still hanging out in the house! I always hate getting them at Disney since we fly and I can't bring it back.
Selfie At Sesame Place!
Balloon still living!
Anyway once we got home, 530ish we picked up pizza for dinner and after we put DD down we finished packing and cleaning up the house. Nothing like last minute packing!
