Can we please get to Disney! UPDATE 6/4 HOLLIES GRADUATION VIDEO

[hlrababy]

SUCH cute pictures! i love how tink has a little smirk in some of them. oh, and also that is definitely the same cindy we met at 1900 park fare and who took a picture with mine and erica's flat husbands!

Aw, thanks Dawn!! I know...I was a fan of Tink's smirk!! She is so cute!!!
No way!! That is awesome!! I wish I could have seen her face when you brought out the "flat hubbbies"

YAY!! More great PP pics!! Can't wait to hear about Chef Mickey's, the Wonderland Tea Party, and MVMCP!!!

Aw thanks!! I am about to start them now...finally!

I think I like the ones with belle the best! they all came out great.

I know...Belle is just awesome!!!! She is one of my favorites!

So very sweet! That's a great picture!

Aw, thanks MeMom!! It is one of my favorites!

Aww, such great pictures! You sure got your money worth out of that CD!

Thanks girl!! Oh I sure did!! haha

All of the PP pictures are so darling!!! Love the ones with Tink!!!

Looking forward to hearing all about Thursday -- it sounds like it was a blast from sunup to sundown!

Aww, thanks Jackie!! Hollie just loves Tink!

I am getting ready to start it now! It sure was a long day!! haha

Love all the new photopass pics! The Fawn that Hollie met is the same one Colby met in November of 2008. She was awesome!!

Also I have to say that Belle is my favorite Princess. Last June we went in to County Bounty to check the wait for the Fairies which was way too long but the Princess line was short so Colby decided he wanted to see them. Belle was the only one that REALLY interacted with him, she taught him to act like the Beast. So she holds a special place in my heart.

Looking forward to reading more!

Aww, thank you!! Wasn't Fawn so pretty!!! She was just wonderful!!

Belle is my favorite princess too! Awwww, how sweet!!!! I bet he just loved her!!!!

Adorable Photopass pictures ! I just love the Tink area it's so well themed & there so in character . We didn't do the princess area in the Judge's Tent last time but after seeing all the great interaction Hollie had w/ them , we may just have to do it this time . That is if it's still there , planning the next trip for September & I read ToonTown will be under construction sometime starting Fall 2010

aww, thanks lady!!! I love the tink area too! They just went all out in there! Its so nice!! Oh you have to do the Princess area next time!!!!! I hope its there...I dread when we go back that everything will be changed. I wish I had remembered when we went, so I could have took tons of pictures of everything

In all these pictures, Hollie's look is like all of the characters are hers, and no one else's. Especially Belle, the look is 'Where have you been? I've missed you'.


BTW, Heather, they're using the 'S' word in the forecast again for tomorrow. I think they're just teasing us again.

LOL!! She sure does!! Her face just lights up when she walks in the room and see's them all!!

OH I know!!!!! I am not gonna believe it this time. Because last time I got my hopes up and all we got was stinking ice!! Ugh!!

 

[3prettyprincesses]

Awww, thanks girl!!! That is too funny they got about the same stuff! You can't go wrong with fairies, barbies, or princesses!!!! lol!!!
She kept wanting to eat the gingerbread house! It was just too funny!!!

YES!!! That was her tree!! When I first saw it (the night before when we went over there to see Chad's stepbrother and stepsister and their families) I just stood there looking at it. They used to have a tree all the time and for the past couple of years...they dont' hardly have one at all.

Ok, that is hilarious! You were just looking at it!! Serioulsy, this just made me laugh so hard! You should put a pic of it in your scrapbook and under it write "WTH?"

The photopass pics are sooo cute! Hollie looks like she fits in with the princesses perfectly. Don't ya just love Pixie Hollow? (I love how they tell you that you've been shrunk down to fairy size, my daughters thought that was really fun.) It was so charming inside and the characters do an amazing job with the kids! The Tinker Bell you saw sure looked sassy, just like she should be! We saw Rosetta, Fawn and Tinker Bell in February and it was so cute.

It sure looks like your photopass CD came out fabulous! They really came out nice. Looking forward to reading the rest!

 

[pmama]

I love Tink's spunky attitude photos.

Yes!!!! I am all about Christmas and decorating! She usually would have trees and decorations up everywhere. But, the past 3 years...zip!!! She did say that it looked really good from the road! She used to make fun of me for wanting a white christmas tree!!!

Awww, thanks girl!!!! I think the fairies are my favorite. Just because of the line right outside of meeting them and the fact that they "shrink" you! Hollie was chasing the light up pixie dust on the wall the entire time!! lol!

I love Tink's spunky attitude photos.

I do too!!! I just knew that Hollie would be picking up that pose soon!!

 

[hlrababy]

Yay!! Got a little quicky update for you. It has nothing to do with pics or the trip or anything Disney'ish...but we are going to Gatlinburg next Thursday!!! Woooo hoooo!!

As of right now, it shows snow on that Friday and Saturday!! YAY!!! We are going to take Hollie with us now...she was gonna stay with my parents but she has been having some separation anxiety for the past couple of months. So...we are gonna take her and have some fun! The hotel has an inside swimming pool and she is excited (you all know how she loves to swim!) So, once she gets out of school we are heading up to the Mountains!!!

I am gonna try to start the rest of my report tomorrow morning! So, stay tuned!

 

[RinkyTinkyTinky]

You lucky duck! We love Gatlinburg! And it's going to snow! I know that is going to be beautiful! Take lots of pictures for me.

 

[ladybugmom]

YAY!! I LOVE Gatlinburg!! Have a great trip!! Is Dollywood in the plans?

 

[MeMom]

we are going to Gatlinburg next Thursday!!! Woooo hoooo!!

The hotel has an inside swimming pool and she is excited (you all know how she loves to swim!) So, once she gets out of school we are heading up to the Mountains!!!

Is it the one with the indoor water park, or have I already asked you that?
I want to take my group up there, but I want to do it when Dollywood is open. We haven't been over that way since Jill and Trent were little, and Drew wasn't even here, so it's been 20 years!

I know you will have so much fun. Looking forward to lots of pictures!

 

[jordanyosh]

Where is that place you're talking about?

I can't wait to hear details! My good friend and her husband just asked us if we wanted to do Gaitlinburg in the fall-hopefully I40 will be cleared by then. We have never been and have no clue what to expect!. She has 2 boys -so we are thinking of renting a cabin for all of us. I sent away for all sorts of brochures and some for Pigeon Forge too! This will be my first time doing any type of mountain vacation! I am such a city girl!

I hope you do a mini-tr when you get back so I can get some ideas. How exciting for snow and swimming-your own little TN version of Blizzard Beach- have a blast!

In the mean time I hope you are feeling well and getting some good sleep! How many more days till you find out what you are having?

 

[MaryAz]

I am lovin all the MIL stories Mine recently sent me " The Spirited Child" book after watching Cayley for a few days. Thanks, already have it. Her pose for the pics was
Great holiday and PP pics-so fun!

 

[disneymoon_0307]

I just found your report and I'm loving it. I love all of the pictures and your daughter is beautiful. Congrats on the baby. Your MIL does sound interesting to say the least. She needs to grown up it sounds like. Fortunately I like my MIL...I know it sounds like an oxy-moron. I can't wait to hear about your last day.

 

[hlrababy]

You lucky duck! We love Gatlinburg! And it's going to snow! I know that is going to be beautiful! Take lots of pictures for me.

I am soooo excited!!!!! I looked today and it shows no snow...but I know it can change. I sure hope so!!!! Oh, girl I will definately take a lot of pictures!!!

YAY!! I LOVE Gatlinburg!! Have a great trip!! Is Dollywood in the plans?

No, unfortunately...they don't open till April. But, we are gonna take Hollie to the Hollywood Wax Museum. She has been practicing her poses for when I take pictures of her!!

Is it the one with the indoor water park, or have I already asked you that?
I want to take my group up there, but I want to do it when Dollywood is open. We haven't been over that way since Jill and Trent were little, and Drew wasn't even here, so it's been 20 years!

I know you will have so much fun. Looking forward to lots of pictures!

No, but we do want to stay there one day. It looks so much fun!!!!!!

Oh yeah, you need to wait till Dollywood is open. I just love that place. I can't say enough how nice the employees are there and how clean it is. It is so nice!!!!!

Oh, I will come back with tons of pictures!

Where is that place you're talking about?

It is so nice Jordan!!!!! Its about 4 hours from us here in Georgia. Its just this cute little town in Tennessee with all kinds of shops and things to do. Its in the moutains and its so nice!!!! I will send you some info if you want!

I can't wait to hear details! My good friend and her husband just asked us if we wanted to do Gaitlinburg in the fall-hopefully I40 will be cleared by then.

Oh awesome!!!! I hope you guys go!!! I will take lots of pictures and do a mini-report when we get back so you can see some of the things to do there!

Awwww, thank you so much!! I have felt so much better and I think I get to find out my next appointment. I sure hope so anyways!

LOL!!!! Are you serious!!!!

Yeah, her poses were something else!!!

Aww, thanks!!

Awesome!!

Thank you so much!!! Oh she is very interesting to say the least. She used to be super cool and nice...but she just changes every year. I keep hoping she will do a complete turn around and go back to how she was!

 

[jordanyosh]

I do want info on it. I'll google it right now too.

 

[P.I. Squirrel]

Sounds like you're talking about Wilderness at the Smokies. We thought about that place ourselves, but CRIPES!, you can almost stay at the Contemporary for what they charge.


Heather, I was asking Amanda about going up towards Knoxville after our move. You'll have to tell us where to stay.

 

[pooh'smate]

I just read all of your tr report. Hollie is a hoot. Your mil is awful. My mil is ok I don't really know my in-laws as they don't speak English. They can they are both fluent but most of the time they only speak French. They have only seen Alexia (4) 3 times. They have only come to visit 2 times since she was born. We went to see them one time and they keep telling my dh that we need to be the ones to travel. They are both retired and can travel any time. I just don't understand why they have no desire to come and see Lexi and their only son. They have 2 dd who have 6 grandkids between the both of them and they do so much for them but for Alexia nothing. They don't even send presents. They do send money but we are to go and pick out what we want her to have. It doesn't bother me that they don 't come but I can tell it bothers my dh.

 

[mansionterror]

Heather...you are going to be in my neck of the woods...we live in Sevier County.

I hope you have a wonderful trip!!

 

[3prettyprincesses]

My in-laws are that way now too, it's like they're anti-decorating! I can't imagine not wanting to decorate my house for Christmas. Well, at least hers looked good from the road!

Yup, the fairies was definitely a highlight of our trip. It was so fun! The photopass guy took a picture of me when I was taking a picture of my girls because I was laughing so hard! It was pretty funny.

I hope you all have a great time in Gatlinburg! Wax museums are so much fun! We went to one in Vegas and my DH took a picture of me draped across Jon Bon Jovi and Johnny Depp!

 

[Spartangirl]

The photopass pics are TOO CUTE! I really love the Tink ones and the one of Belle hugging Hollie............so precious!

Hope you have a wonderful time in Gatlinburg! We're headed there this summer and I already put the Wax Museum on my to-do list (as you suggested!). Can't wait to see all of the pictures that I know you'll take!

 

[WrightFamily06]

Have fun in Gatlinburg, can't wait to see the pictures ! We always say were gonna take a trip over there and never make . I haven't been there since I was 3 and my family has never been , so we def need to make it over there one of these years !
