Brooklynn takes Bella to meet Cinderella! Page 242 Downtown Disney

[White as Snow]

A couple of characters who have had an exciting month with their new release.

Glad you all are back safe and sound! Can't wait to hear about the rest of the adventure!

 

[micandminforever]

I glad you had another wonderful trip and it is great to have you back.

 

[nowellsl]

Seems like you just left....I was keeping up with you on facebook. That was really nice of Trent to keep us updated - he seems like a really nice kiddo, and he's a Gator Fan! Doesn't get much better than that!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Welcome back you girls! I'm glad you had a good time but we missed you lots!
We have never been into Tony's, is the shopping in the photo shop near it? I love all the nostalgia!

 

[xoktenox]

Glad to hear you girls are all home, safe and sound with the wonderful memories of another trip under your belts.

That picture of Brooklynn is hilarious!! I love it! She's so adorable and getting so big that she can ride TT now.

Can't wait to hear all about your new trip. Thanks for the advice on Kona too. We just had to switch our days around on our upcoming trip and switch one of our reservations to dinner at Kona and you really just made Chris and I feel better about it

Welcome home MeMom, Jill and girls!

The trip sounds amazing and I loved the updates we got whilst you were there! Thanks!

Jill - I had a night away from my little Toby last weekend. I missed him like crazy and it was only 1 night, but it did me the world of good and I actually had a really fun time. I saw some friends and my Mum & Dad and did some shopping. If I could go to Disney for a long weekend on my own, I'd jump at the chance!!! Hope you decide to go for it!

Can't wait to read more trip updates! xxx

Thanks for the walk through the gift shop. I love those old posters/ads!

Thanks for the walk through Tony's! A little Disney magic goes a long way with me these days! (It's killing me that we don't have the summer trip booked yet! )

I know what you mean. It's really hard right after you come back. The real world is just not nearly as exciting.

You are soon to book the summer trip, right? The dates of summer school are messing me up, and they changed camp to back one week, so it looks like I'm going to be very restricted to our trip time. Either I will have to skip the last week or few days of summer school or make the trip shorter than I'd like. We hadn't planned on being there over July 4th, but it appears that we will be after all.

Glad you all are back safe and sound! Can't wait to hear about the rest of the adventure!

Thanks so much. We had easy flights both ways. We'll finish our summer fun first, then go right into this one, and then go right into the December trip. After that, things will slow down if we don't get to do the spring break weekend grown-up girls only trip.

I glad you had another wonderful trip and it is great to have you back.

We did.
We didn't really want to come back, of course, but it is a necessary evil.

Seems like you just left....I was keeping up with you on facebook. That was really nice of Trent to keep us updated - he seems like a really nice kiddo, and he's a Gator Fan! Doesn't get much better than that!

He's a good guy. Very family oriented. He loves those two little girls with all of his heart! He's been a Gator fan for a long time.

Welcome back you girls! I'm glad you had a good time but we missed you lots!
We have never been into Tony's, is the shopping in the photo shop near it? I love all the nostalgia!

You should go in and walk around a bit. As you face Tony's, the shopping area is on the right. The photo and nostalgia area is in back of the shopping, and the theater is in the back and to the right of that.

Glad to hear you girls are all home, safe and sound with the wonderful memories of another trip under your belts.

That picture of Brooklynn is hilarious!! I love it! She's so adorable and getting so big that she can ride TT now.

Wasn't that hilarious?

Do not hesitate for a minute on Kona. I had seen so many good pictures and heard great reviews, and I was ready to try it. I was sad to leave some of that incredible steak on the plate, but there was no way I could finish it. You will love it!

Yep - cousin Dawn.
When will you be here next. We have your set of toys for Margot.
You owe me a grand total of $4.25! Can you believe that???

We were so excited
that we thought you and Erica
were worth $4.25, too,
so we bought you each a set for your future little ones.

Aw Tony's...how I miss it so.

Are you making an ADR there for your spring break trip?

Welcome home MeMom, Jill and girls!

The trip sounds amazing and I loved the updates we got whilst you were there! Thanks!

We had fun sending pictures.

Bella will be almost a year old at spring break, so I will hope that Jill feels like she could leave for two parts of days and two while days. If not, we'll try when she is ready. It would be good for her.

Thanks for the walk through the gift shop. I love those old posters/ads!

There are a lot of old things back there, and the movie mural is cool. It reminds me somewhat of One Man's Dream. It seems like this, like One Man's Dream, often gets lost in the midst of all the big stuff.



**********************

Twenty-one years ago today, in a far away land, a little dark-haired boy was born to a young and frightened mother. For many reasons that she and God know, she could not care for this new little life, so he came to be mine. The first night I held him, he smiled a big smile as I whispered to him all the things we would do as he grew up. God gave me a great gift and has taught me many lessons through this child. He's brought us a lot of laughter, along with a few tears. He has had some struggles, but he seems to be finally finding his way on a path he likes with his photography. I am hoping he will be able to turn this into a career he really enjoys doing, because what he likes, he does well. What he doesn't like doing...forget it!

Happy Birthday, my Drew boy! I love you very, very much and want only the best for you forever and always!


Have a good day everyone!

 

[IluvXU]

Happy Birthday Drew!

I hate hearing your summer dates are around the fourth.... we will just probably be back from WDW, so no DIS meet!

Enjoy your day off.... I am playing the guess how many are well and at school game this past two weeks, while wrapping up the first quarter. Hard to do when kids have been out for over a week!

 

[Charleston Princess]

Hopefully we will be booking soon for next summer -- it's hard not knowing when the Harry Potter theme park is going to happen for sure because that is the one thing Connor wants to do more than anything else. I am about ready to take my chances though.

Happy Birthday to Drew! Your post about him made me teary-eyed! You are so wonderful, MeMom!

you guys are so sweet!!! i won't be there until christmas. why don't i send you a check which will include the money for the toys plus about $8 for shipping so you can send it to me? i think that should cover it. do you think so? you don't have to ship the one you got for my future baby, i will just get that from you the next time i see you. thanks again! and what a deal!!!

[MagicShell]

I am glad you had a safe trip. It sounds like you had a great trip. I love the picture of Brooklynn. I hope you and Jill get to take your weekend trip together. It is rare that you get to spend time alone with your mother when you become a mother.

 

[arkie]

MeMom, Tell Drew eveyone is Disland says Happy Birthday. And to you I say congratulations (even though it was hard at times) on raising 3 wonderful kids. I know you are proud of each and everyone of them.
I can't wait to hear more about your trip. Brooklynn face was priceless on the TT ride. I wonder what Bella was thinking when she saw all these big animals running around the park. I can't wait to take Ty.

 

[Happy Elf]

Happy Birthday Drew! Your words were so sweet and had me tearing up.

 

[tinkgurl]

Are you making an ADR there for your spring break trip?

Nope we're not. I just don't feel like it'd be the same without Mom,Dad, and Sis. Which is also why we're not eating at 1900 PF or Chef Mickey's this trip either. I'm such a sap.

Aw..happy birthday Drew! That was such a nice post to him.

By the way, Happy Friday!

 

[Megablocks]

Happy birthday to Drew!

Oh, Kona. That was one place I wanted to go but I don't think my sister would be able to find anything to her liking. I can't remember if I told you, but I finally decided I wanted to eat at 1900 PF for dinner, because we will all get a kick out of the stepsisters.

Happy Friday!

 

[mickeysmyboy]

I love the pictures from Tony's! That area with the movie screen is so neat! I think it would be a great place to take a quiet, cool break!!

I love your post about Drew MeMom! It was so heartwarming and touching! I hope he has a great birthday!!
