Brooklynn takes Bella to meet Cinderella! Page 242 Downtown Disney

I just love Fantasmic. I can't wait to see it again.

For some reason I thought you were leaving today! Oops!
 
As someone who has never seen Fantasmic!, I really enjoyed your pictures. :goodvibes And I can't believe how dark the street was afterwards!
 
Great Fantasmic pics MeMom! I'n keeping my fingers crossed that I'll get to see it in January!

Have a great Friday and a great weekend ahead, everyone! Stay safe, count your blessings, enjoy what you have and don't worry about what you don't have. There is not one among this group who is not extremely blessed in so many ways, even with our trials.

:thumbsup2 Sooooo true!!
 
Great pics of Fantasmic!!:thumbsup2 I always try to get good pics but they do not seem to come out that great. Have a great weekend!!
 

Yes, Jill reminded me to walk carefully. She offered to throw away any trash for me, so that I wouldn't have a repeat performance of reaching over to a trash can, tripping over the curb, and smashing my face in the concrete. :laughing:

Aw Jill is so nice! :rotfl:
 
Happy Friday MeMom! And great Fantasmic! pics! I can't believe in 3.5 days I will be seeing that, and that in 8 days I will be seeing you!
 
Enjoy your weekend MeMom and getting those last minute things done! We are headed to Michigan so Aileen can meet some of her aunts, uncles and cousins, as well as her great grandfather. We will certainly be counting our blessings to have so much love showered over us!
 
One week! :cool1: Are you so excited you can hardly stand it!?!? We're at 65 days and I'm ready to pull out the suitcases!

I hope you all have a great weekend (throw out plenty of those, "This time next week I'll be....." phrases!)


This is who I was hanging out with last weekend....

The Thomas lovin' two year old nephew! His Uncle Robert and I got him the Tigger outfit because he and Tigger have a lot of the same interests - bouncing off the walls!

Thanks for the close-ups of Snow and her fella from Fantasmic!
 
Hi MeMom! :) How's your knee feeling? Hope it continues to improve for you.

Loved the Disney on Ice pics and videos, and the Fantasmic pictures are awesome, too. We also like to let the crowds clear out instead of getting caught up in it. It's so nice to see the park quiet and empty at night.

Your trip is coming up so fast! :woohoo: (I'm still trying to accept that it's October already.) The Mickey heads for our upcoming trip are quickly disappearing from Megablocks' door. :yay:

Have a great weekend! :goodvibes
 
Yes !!!! it is time for the " this time next week" dance. :dance3::dance3::dance3:


I can't wait either!!! I do plan on getting by POFQ for some beignets so maybe we will cross paths.

Pat
 
Ohhh, Fantasmic. Always fun but, the crowds aren't.
Seeing your pictures always change my plans.
Fantasmic is high up on our list for this trip.

Perhaps maybe next time Bella will be more into Fantasmic:lmao:
One more week! I'm so excited for you.
I still don't have a trip booked because of Dh's work but I am for sure going next month before our passes expire.:thumbsup2
 
We are a very blessed group! As usual you have a great way to convey your thoughts!
I'm quite excited for you to begin your this time next week!
Hope that knee is very strong and ready to carry you where ever your heart desires!
 
Awww, thanks MeMom .... I do feel blessed!

So blessed to have great friends here on the DIS! :grouphug:

It's our Canadian Thanksgiving on Monday....so I've been thinking about how thankful I am for all of the wonderful people I've met on here since last year!
It's a real joy to come on here and be entertained by everyone's stories and pics. A fun diversion to my real life.

Sharing a love of all things "Disney" is a true blessing!!!

:yay: :yay: :yay: Very excitting to think you will be at WDW by the end of next week! :yay: :yay: :yay:
 
Happy Friday everyone! Memom and Jill, I've enjoyed reading your TR's! I've been lurking for a while and decided to say "Hi!":wave2::wave2: I try to keep up wth them but always fall behind.
Have a great trip next week! Can't wait to here about it and the rest of this trip to. I love the Disney on Ice pictures, makes me want to go. I see the Celebrations one and the 100 years one are coming near me, but I don't know if I can convince my DH and DS to go.
I know you got a new camera, but I missed hearing about what happened to your old one. I love all your pics.
 
Don't forget with that new knee we need a picture of you dancing down main street (from the back if you prefer).
 
Happy Friday, MeMom! I am so excited for you that you are down to the "next week" part of trip anticipation! I found myself doing the "This time last week" yesterday and today.

It was an okay Friday, except for the fact that about two minutes before we were going to take the kids out for Fun Friday, the principal announced that no one could go out because storms were approaching. We ended up letting them watch PBS for a few minutes and then we just gave them some socializing time.

This time next week is more fun than This time last week, for sure.



:rotfl: so glad you didn't fall on our face this time! How kind of Jill to remind you to walk carefully and offer to throw away your garbage.

Great pics of Fantasmic! I can't believe that crowd, wowsers!!!!! We didn't wait in it when we did Fanstasmic, so I never saw the sea-of-people.

Happy Friday back to you! One week for you! And one week for me!!!! I can say, one week from today, I'll be leaving my office and not going back! After yesterday, that feels really, really good to say. I already have plans for that first week to hit up a pumpkin patch with Henry!

I can guarantee you that you will be a part of our waiting at the airport conversation. Either Jill or I will remember that it is your last work day, and we will say hoooooraaay :woohoo: for you. Enjoy staying at home. I know I did, and I'd do it again in a second if given the opportunity.



You got some great shots of Fantasmic. What a crowd! I am glad you waited until the crowd was gone. It looks like you all were the only ones left in DHS.

There were a few people here and there, but we were among the last ones. If I had been by myself, I would have taken more empty park pictures, but it was time to get the babies to bed. Past time, really.



I just love Fantasmic. I can't wait to see it again.

For some reason I thought you were leaving today! Oops!

Next Friday after school. :)



As someone who has never seen Fantasmic!, I really enjoyed your pictures. And I can't believe how dark the street was afterwards!

You've got to put it on your must-do list!


Great Fantasmic pics MeMom! I'n keeping my fingers crossed that I'll get to see it in January!


Sooooo true!!

I hope you will, too. It is an awesome way to end a Disney day.



Great pics of Fantasmic!!:thumbsup2 I always try to get good pics but they do not seem to come out that great. Have a great weekend!!

I got lucky on a few, but many were blurry.
If we make it on this trip, we'll see what the new camera does.



Aw Jill is so nice!

She's a good girl.

Or maybe she just didn't want to be embarrassed walking around with a mom with a black eye for a second time! ;)



Happy Friday MeMom! And great Fantasmic! pics! I can't believe in 3.5 days I will be seeing that, and that in 8 days I will be seeing you!

You better get to that packing, girl! We'll see you Saturday morning!



Your Hollywood Studios pictures got me very excited. Oh, boy I can't wait to go back.

No matter how many times we go, I am always ready to go back, too!



Enjoy your weekend MeMom and getting those last minute things done! We are headed to Michigan so Aileen can meet some of her aunts, uncles and cousins, as well as her great grandfather. We will certainly be counting our blessings to have so much love showered over us!

I graded four sets of papers last night so that I can get ahead on finishing report cards. I have to finish Running Record folders today. Tomorrow I am doing nothing school related.

Those aunts, uncles, and cousins will love seeing that new baby girl! Enjoy your family time!



One week! Are you so excited you can hardly stand it!?!? We're at 65 days and I'm ready to pull out the suitcases!

I hope you all have a great weekend (throw out plenty of those, "This time next week I'll be....." phrases!)

Thanks for the close-ups of Snow and her fella from Fantasmic!

He's a cutie! I can picture him bouncing off the walls, as two year old boys do. It's the times that they bounce off the bed and end up in the ER for stitches that aren't so Tiggerific! I might have some experience with that. ;)

I am looking forward to sitting down one cool November Saturday and watching the new Snow White DVD. It is one of my favorite movies, because it's 'old school' Disney.



Hi MeMom! How's your knee feeling? Hope it continues to improve for you.

Have a great weekend!

She hasn't shown us door pictures lately, has she? Tell her we need to see one!

I think my knee progress has reached a plateau. It will be interesting to see how it goes next week. It's still not going to be anywhere near normal, but it is a lot less painful. Not completely pain-free, because he said he couldn't do that, but much better.



Yes !!!! it is time for the " this time next week" dance. :dance3:

I can't wait either!!! I do plan on getting by POFQ for some beignets so maybe we will cross paths.

Pat

Why don't you text us, and if we are at the resort, we'll come down to the food court. I'll PM you the numbers.



Ohhh, Fantasmic. Always fun but, the crowds aren't.
Seeing your pictures always change my plans.
Fantasmic is high up on our list for this trip.

One more week! I'm so excited for you.
I still don't have a trip booked because of Dh's work but I am for sure going next month before our passes expire.:thumbsup2

Yes, get the most out of those passes! I'm sick that I won't get a March trip out of mine, but the rooms and transportation, unfortunately, aren't covered under the AP!



We are a very blessed group! As usual you have a great way to convey your thoughts!
I'm quite excited for you to begin your this time next week!
Hope that knee is very strong and ready to carry you where ever your heart desires!

It's getting there, but the trip will definitely test it to its limits.



Awww, thanks MeMom .... I do feel blessed!

That's what this is supposed to be - a group of good people enjoying a happy diversion from real life. :thumbsup2

Welcome to our group! We're so glad you decided to join in the conversation.

I hope you can make it to Disney on Ice! You will love it!!

The old camera just wore out, I think. Drew had taken a zillion pictures with it before I inherited it from him, and I took a zillion more. One day, the lens just wouldn't roll out.



Don't forget with that new knee we need a picture of you dancing down main street (from the back if you prefer).

Yeah, I am pretty far away from the dancing phase of the healing process.
Lucky me, and lucky you for not having to see that!
 
Forgive the yellow blotchy pictures coming up.
Who knows what kind of setting I had the camera on?
I don't know what I'm doing when it comes to cameras.


This was the first full day for the boys, and they had decided they wanted to hit a waterpark.

But first, there was food.

Drew's food.
