First let me say that everyone should beware the Prince of Thieves is legal! And I think we gave him great memories!

DW and I arrived last Wed nite. Our plane was late so we got to the room just before midnight. Even though he was born at 6:32am, I guess we got there at the time of his bday. He had checked in earlier in the day and was waiting for us! Since he was not home for his birthday, I had done about a 25 min video for him about his life and had about 30 or so of people from his life to say happy birthday. We stayed up to after 2:00am just talking.

We took him to have breakfast with Pooh and Tigger the next morning at the Crystal Palace. Everyone sang and he ran around the restaurant with Tigger. He was a great sport! We then did Mickey's Philharmagic and Buzz Lightyear and had our picture taken. We then took him to go parasailing! What a blast. He did not want to come down. Mom then took a nap while we went and got his id changed to not say he was under 21! That night we went to MNSSHP at MK. What a great time! Oh yeah he wore his birthday button and people from the parade said Happy Birthday. Like Snow White !


Friday morning we slept late (thank goodness!!!!) we then bought tickets for the haunted hayride at FW then went to MGM for the coolest expereince! We had lunch at The Brown Derby in the Bamboo room with one of the lead Graphics Imagineers for WDW. There were a total of seven of us and him and we had a two hour wonderful lunch and conversation! DS got a limited edition glass plate autographed by the imagineer commemorating the event! DS ordered his first official drink and got carded!!!!! We floated around MGM for a while from our lunch, then we went over to the Y&B and had the neatest experience. We had a 45 minute ride on the Breathless, the cigarette boat there. We cruised from the Y&B to MGM and back to Epcot. We did spins around the ferry boats as we went from place to place. WHAT A BOAT!!! DS and I left mom for another rest and we bought copies of the Matirx Revisited DVD. ( A guy thing). We went to dinner that night at Olivia's at OKW and went to the Haunted Hay ride. A very cool experience if you get to do it. Up close and persona with the headless horseman!!!

Saturday DS game back to earh since he had to work. DW and I did the F&W festival. Really crowded. We also did Wishes that night at MK. WHAT A MOB of people!!! Wishes is wonderful! DS also had to work Sunday night so we met for breakfast at FW and then cruised the F&W again for DS. We both got autographed copies of the poster by the artist! DW and I cruised DD Sunday night. DS had class on Monday and we met him for lunch at Olivia's again. We then cruise around the BW until he had to go to work!

DW and I did a lot of thinking about his BDay and figured 21 should be of memories not of things. I know we have memories we will never forget and we think he got to do some things he will never forget. Thank you WDW!!!
 
WOW! What a great report!!

I sooooo agree that memories are far more important than things. Just for that reason my son spends every birthday in Orlando! Luckily his birthday falls during both of our Christmas vacations!

What awesome parents you are to find such excitement in your son's enjoyment. That's really what it's ALL ABOUT, isn't it?

God bless!
