It's also good to know the fp machines have that built in.
My fav so far was the bachelorette party one where they wanted to make strippers but his mom kept freaking out. It was hilarious! 
for handling that heat with 4 little ones! Anyhow great report, I have wanted to comment on so many things but I can remember what they were because I kept on reading!
Now I know what probably happened to my DS's KTTW card when he lost it on our Sept 2008 visit. I had no idea that the machines sucked the cards back in. I was in a panic but we just went to the front desk at POFQ and he was issued another card. It was quite a scare as he was on the bus when he realized that he didn't have his card. It would have been no big deal except for the fact that it was during Free Dining & the Food & Wine Festival....I had visions of all of my snack credits being gone when I checked but everything was still there....what a relief.
Think the naps were well deserved after your morning and the stress of misplaing your card. Great that you got it back
You are right on the bonny translation
Night in MK can't wait to hear about that
I'm a Cake Boss fan, too. I missed the WDW one, I will have to search for the repeat on DVR. Thank GOD for DVR!
So glad you found your card. I did not know that about the machines, very good info to have. I also love Splash. It is sooo much fun. We have the whole ride minus the big drop videotaped from when I was young and Bella loves watching it. She can't wait to ride.
I just found this...your kiddies are tooooooo stinkin cute!
Sooooo we must have crossed paths a few times! We were there last year from April 30th- May 10th!
This year we are going from April 23rd to May 2nd woohoo! and staying at AKL, another woohoo! for me!
What are your dates for this year?
Your report is hilarious! But you have not once mentioned ( or I may have skimmed over ) the fact that is was 1 Bagillion degrees out that week! Seriously I think there were record highs set for that week in FLA.
Since we were lucky enough to have stayed at the Beach Club last year we spent most afternoons at the pool because the parks were too hot and crowded!
I give you many kuddos
Oh I remember one thing that made me laugh, your oldest's face peeking at the yellow power ranger that he had no interest in! It cracked me up, my DS is 10 and he would have done the same thing!
No, I didn't see the Disney episode. Why didn't you get the picture of DS drinking vienna juice?????Lol.
I'm glad you found your KTTW card.
I do not want your TR to end. Who am I going to mess with about food porn???
I'm in. Guess I have to post the pic now, huh??? How about two?
Here's one from our trip in May/June 2008:
And here's one from our most recent trip. I photoshopped myself into it b/c I don't have my Photopass pix yet, so I don't have any with all of us!
Looking forward to the rest of your report!
P.S. I have a 'Lego', too. He's our engineer, and he has just a little bit of a one track mind.
My kids are 11, 8, 5 & 5. (The boys are turning 6 in a couple of weeks) 
) He's been able to follow Lego directions for what seems like forever now. He always amazes us with what he can figure out on his own! He's the one who, last trip (he was barely 4) hated It's a Small World (the first ride he went on!), and pretty much just wanted to go 'home' (meaning back to the hotel room) the whole trip after that. Not a big joiner. He'd rather be home with his bike and his toys. I don't know where that comes from, b/c DH and I both love to go out and do stuff. Anyway, he did better this trip, although he would still probably have rather been home. We'd say 'We're going to go ride *whatever*.' He'd say "Awwww, can't we just go home (hotel room).' We'd go ride it, all together, we'd come off, he'd say 'I LOVED it.' We'd say 'Now we're going to go ride *whatever*.' He'd say 'Awwwww, can't we just go home.' We'd go ride it, he'd say 'I LOVED it'. This was his standard reply to each ride. Funny kid. He just gets something in his mind and won't let it go until the plan goes his way.
Okay, I think I have finally figured out how to post photos. Hope this works...
Here we are at the beach last summer.
Here we are on our last trip to Disney (almost 2 years ago with me pregnant and DD not liking Tigger).
Thanks for keeping up with the trip reports!!
I speak some Japanese actually not a lot but it was more than enough to prevent us from getting lost and to survive day to day for the two years were there. I lived there when I was in high school for four years. But every time we'd come back to the states. I'd have no one to practice with, so it almost disappears on me. DH wants me to double major or minor it it. I wanted to take major in French since it's the third most spoken language in the world and it could land me a translating job or interpeter job. DH thinks it's cool I know Japanese so he keeps trying to push me into keeping it up. But it's really hard. I just if we just spent a few more years there I might be good to go.
I won't go into the nasty car stories I could tell
We inherited DVC points from my Dad a couple of years ago, so we stay in a 2BR in one of the DVC resorts each time we go. We always stayed at OKW when my dad was with us (he was one of the original owners from back in 1991 or 1992, and he loved that place) The last couple of times we've tried Saratoga Springs and Bay Lake Tower. They are all really, really nice. I think the FW cabins are supposed to be great for families of 6. We did two connecting rooms at Pop Century one time, and that was a lot of fun, too. I probably know too much about trying to find decent lodging for a larger family. The whole world seems to be set up for families of 4!
My Lego is almost 6 (like I said above
Anyway, probably TMI (sorry), but I'm enjoying your report since our kids are so similar in age. Fun!!!
We walked the long walk to our bus stop. Of course we see a bus at the stop while we are about a mile out, so then we are running to catch it and the kids are all dragging their heels behind us. Thank goodness the younger two were in the strollers, but the older two were insistent on walking. There must have been some cute girls around or something and they just didn't want to look like idiots. I don't know, but I had to practically throw DH the strollers and run back to grab the older two by the hands and run with them. Thank goodness we made the bus, or I would not have been happy. So we were all sweaty and out of breathe and of course Princess(DD2) wants to lay her hot body down on top of me so that she can go to sleep. She was out in no time, but then when we got back to the resort we had the problem of how to get the strollers and the kids off without waking up Princess(DD2). Somehow we managed and made it back to the room. 
So then I let him have it for not letting me take a nap once this vacation and he promises that the next time will be my turn....we will see. I then realize that we have to get going because we have a dinner reservation at the Liberty Tree Tavern at 5:30. I quickly suck up my attitude and go back into commander. Everyone solutes me and we are on our way. We arrived back at MK about 5:00 and we see Pluto standing out there all alone. So we get a picture with him.
After seeing all those animals, I decided I was thirsty/hungry. That means I was in desperate need of a Dole Whip. Goofy(DS7) let out a huge holler that I had never heard before. WOOOOOOOOO, he was excited. We got our dole whips and savored every bite. I then told DH how I really was wanting to watch the fireworks, but he did not want to fight the crowds with our strollers to get on the bus afterwards. So sadly we headed out before the fireworks. 
I walked slowly back to the bus. Once we were outside of the park, but before the bus stops, I asked DH if we could sit on the benches out there and watch. He made the compromise. I will admit, it wasn't nearly as nice as watching the fireworks with the castle view, but it was better than nothing. Plus, we also were able to be in the front of the line waiting for our bus and it was a good thing because for some reason POR did not get a bus for a very long time. We saw buses for other resorts come three times and we still didn't have one. By the time our bus finally came, the line was backed up all the way to the previous bus stop. It was definitely a good thing we were in the front, especially with those darn double strollers!! Thanks to my DH!
I love your trip report. I'm going to be your newest stalker
You can actually re-ride the Speedway w/o getting off if you have two kids with you. (DH and I each alway just say that we are two separate groups of three. They'll let you ride three in each car) Just tell the guy loading (when they ask you how many are in your party) that you have two kids with you who each want to drive. In summer of 2008 the woman who was going to let us out told us we could switch drivers to the other kid and then let us ride again. (She was so nice to us, too. She took a picture of me w/ the 2 kids I had with me in our car and DH with the 2 kids he had with him in his car. I think I actually cried when she did this. It was such a nice thing to do. They are great pix, and I really cherish them. I don't mean to whine, but it is often really hard to get good pictures when you are two adults with four young kids. Usually I'm just trying to manhandle everyone onto and off of the rides, so pix take a backseat.)
Anyway, two weeks ago when we were there, the Speedway people put a little canvas cuff or flag or something on our cars to signal that we would be switching drivers and riding again. SO much better than having to get out and stand in line again so that each kid could drive.
I always sit in the middle and push the gas peddle while the kids each take their turn driving. I hope it works out for you guys next time like this.
J/K, I love that I can find out information like this. Now I am bummed that I never knew any of that before. I am so glad you told me that!! I actually mentioned the tomorrowland speedway thing hoping that somebody might have a solution!! THANKS!!!
Still loving your report
