I'd love for someone to look over my plans and see if I'm missing anything or making any huge mistakes :) Our group consists of me, DH, DD1 (3.5yrs), and DD2 (1.5yrs). A few notes: We're coming from the west coast and plan to stay close to Pacific time and both girls love characters. Oh, and we're doing the deluxe dining plan and staying at the WLV. THANKS!!!!!

Your trip already sounds wonderful from your stay at WLV to the excellent rest. that your eating at. Whispering Canyon is a wonderful rest and has great ribs and entertainment while your in there (ask for ketchup and napkins and straws). If MK is closing early during the time your eating at Tony's you'll only be able to see some of the fireworks if your sitting close to the windows. I love Le Cellier but as your eating there at 8 pm and as this rest. generally has a 10 to 20 wait you'll hear Illuminations happening during your dinner so plan to take your kids to see Illuminations on another night. Lastly, the night your doing Hoopdedoo you may want to take the kids to the petting zoo (call for hours as they probably close around 5ish) and may want to think about paying for an evening hay ride before your 7:15 show. Have a great time and enjoy the villas.
 
Your plans sound great! The only one that I gave second look at was Le Cellier at 8pm. I don't find Le Cellier to be great for young kids. There's no entertainment factor there, it's relatively small with the tables pretty close together and I just find it to be more of an adult atmosphere. My friend and her husband just came back from Disney last week and also said Le Cellier wasn't the same this time. Honestly I would the Biergarten a look.
 
Thanks guys!

yecats - Yeah, our later dinners might cost us some fireworks viewing but hopefully we can make up for it on other nights. Good idea about the hayride and petting zoo!

chloelovesdisney - Thanks! That's interesting that your friend thought Le Cellier had changed. I'll have to look at the Biergarten menu. Thankfully, both our girls love restaurants so I'm not too worried about them being bored. They did great when we went to Le Cellier last year. Just keep the meal rolling and they should do fine. I'm actually a bit more concerned about California Grill since we haven't been there before and I'm not sure if it might be more leisurely if it's more upscale.

If you plan to attend the MVMCP eating at 7pm cuts into the party time. Perhaps seek to book that meal at 5 or no later than 6pm to maximize your party time.
 
since you have girls id replace your WCC with Cindy's for breakfast itsa true experience! I don't see any Studios?? If you do choose to do the studios the Sci Fi Diner is such a nice atmosphere and 50's Prime Time would be fun..isuggest going tothe studio's for the osbourne's light festival and fantasmic !!!!! So my major thing is maybe get rid of one of your MK days for a MGM day maybe Nov 17th and do maybe Sci fi and 50's prime time? THe kids would enjoy it
 
Everything you picked looks great:goodvibes

Looks like you have 3 meals left....will you being using them for CS in the parks.
