Here's the final installment of my TR
Thursday - Epcot day
We woke up early to get ready for our breakfast with Cinderella at the castle. I still wasn't feeling 100%, but I was feeling alot better than the night before. So we got all ready, hoped the monorail, and went to the CRT for breakfast.
Things changed at the CRT from the last time we were there. Instead of Fairy Godmother sitting in the castle lobby, we now have Cinderella there taking pictures with her guests. She no longer walks around the tables. This was nice, but the girls really enjoyed seeing Fairy Godmother and they missed her.
The Princesses there that day were Alice, Snow White and Belle.
Another change is each girl got a magic wand and each boy got a magic sword. Then during breakfast they had a special thing where the kids would wave their sword or wand and make a wish - it was really cute. Stephanie has the wand in the picture below.
If you've ever been to the CRT, the food didn't change, and it's still just, okay
Then after our breakfast we headed back to The Poly for the girls to change out of their dresses and for Kevin to get his scuba items for his dive at The Living Seas.
We were there during Epcots Food and Wine Festival which is something we have never seen before. All the countries had these great food booths, but we didn't eat any of it, we were to full from breakfast.
Our first stop in Epcot is always at The Leave a Legacy to find the girls tile. We had their picture taken in 2005 when Katie was 13 months and Stephanie was 6.
Afterwards we did Spaceship Earth, went to the Art Store and bought myself a very expensive Jiminy Cricket that Kevin is giving me for my birthday, and then we headed over towards the World Showcase. We went straight for Japan so the girls could buy some Hello Kitty things and so I could get my oyster. This year, my oyster had twins!!! I had them mounted on what looks like an upside wish bone, and now I have to buy a gold chain for it.
Then our way back is when we met up with some friends (I know some of you saw this already)
After visiting with them, we raced back to the front of the park so Kevin could meet up with his scuba diving group. After he found them, me and the girls went to The Living Seas to watch him scuba dive in the big tank - it was so cool. It took a lot of time though. We were there from 4:30pm - 7:30pm.
When he was done with Dive Quest we got a bite to eat and Katie and I went to find a place to watch Illuminations while Kevin and Steph went to ride Test Track. It was a beautiful night!! Not to hot with a nice breeze. Illuminations was awesome as normal!!!
Friday - MNSHHP
The next morning we slept in a little and had a quick breakfast before we went out to rent our annual Pontoon boat. I love doing this!!!! It's so relaxing to putter around on that boat while taking in the sites.
Isn't this a great shot of the monorail!!
After our boat adventure we went swimming in the pool and then it was time to get ready for the party. We had a 4pm ADR at LTT so we had to get moving.
Stephanie was a lady bug and Katie was Cinderella
Everything was so decorated for the party, that it was hard for me to narrow my pictures down for this TR
We met up with these guys - they were pretty cool!! How can they walk on those stilts - I could never do that!!!
When it got dark we made it over to Toon Town to see what was happening there. I persuaded Katie to go on Goofy's Barnstormer and she LOVED it!!!
When the girls were done Trick or Treating we headed toward Cindys carousal and what did I see, could it be???? THE SEVEN DWARFS ALL TOGETHER!!!!
The line was huge, but I didn't care, we were going to see them no matter what. Stephanie says, "Mommy, do we have to wait in this line?" I said, "I have been coming here for 30 years, and I've never seen all the dwarfs at once. So yes, we are standing in this line!!!!"
So we did, and I was happy!!
When our visit was over, we sat behind the castle to wait for the fireworks, which was awesome. I'm not wishing we sat in front of the castle, but that's alright, we'll do it next time.
After the fireworks we went on IASM, because the girls really love that, and than I looked at my watch, and holy cow, we better get a spot for the 10:30pm parade. So we raced back towards Main Street, cutting through gift shops like crazy people, and we got back to the big ghost and that where we stayed for the parade.
I thought about it after the kids tore it up 
I have to get together with my Broker now and pay them money so I can get started 
I'm very excited and nervous all at the same time 
Stephanie has a soccer game this cold night too - BUMMER!!!!
How old is she now?
I do think James would love to play football in the snow! We are still in shorts every day! 
Tampa is a great place to visit, but I don't think I would want to permanently live there. 
The open house was nice, but I was tired after running after Katie all day. Stephanie saw alot of her friends, and she loved showing them around the fire house. I also saw alot of people I know, and met a lot of Stephanie's friends mom's, which was nice also. One mom and I even exchanged phone numbers so the girls could play. 
, but it does. Then we came home and I put Katie straight to bed, she was so tired and I watched Poseidon, which was good - I give it a
