Celebrating The 3rd Anniv of My 29th BDay with Disney Magic - Sept 2013 *TR STARTED!*

[Fantasyland Mom]

SO CLOSE!!!
I have done NO PACKING. This is from the lady who usually packs a month out! I guess that tells you how busy it's been around here! I am heating up the glue gun right now to finish Sawyer's costume, and then I have to paint my necklace and all the costumes will be done. That's about as far as I've gotten, lol! I have to take Brynn out tonight to get some more shoes that fit her braces, so I think I'm going to force her to go to Walmart or Target with me and get those last minute things.
And I am getting my hair cut this weekend. Chopped, more like it. I get bad headaches from long hair, and I haven't cut it since last trip. It's time!
I hope your autograph book comes in time. I think it's so cool that you made one!

WOO HOO

1 week!!!!



Good Call on cancelling hair appt just in case.

Steve will dye my hair sometimes, as easier to have someone else do it. Would Chris do yours?

Possibly even less actually lol! Chris got Tuesday night off so his last night of work before vacation is Saturday. So I have requested of Rebecca to see if she can get us a night at AoA on the 11th lol. I'm horrible, I know lol!

Thanks I feel better about it. I was so worried she would butcher my hair

I did get some dye to try out. Chris will help me if I ask. He has before but I'll probably do it myself tonight after Alex goes to bed. Hopefully it doesn't burn my scalp too badly. I got foam coloring this time.

Lol dang girl! You sound like Kattie lol! She's freaking out too and she has Jameson's bday party the day before they leave for Disney. :-O I did see what y'all are dressing up as for Halloween but remind me? Boo to having to shoe shop. Hope you're successful! Love Brynn's new braces!! So adorable! They just look like cool socks. How's she doing with them so far?

Aww I think your hair is cute short though! You always look great in your Disney pics from what I've seen

Thank you! It still says in production. I'm kind of freaking a bit but its not a necessity I guess. I'm also waiting for the ponchos I ordered myself and DH now. Gah! Talk about last minute purchases! This is what I get for doing all my shopping online lol

Commenting on Day 4 ~ September 15th

If you want FPs before 1pm you probably need to be there by 10am.

Not sure if you have eaten at Backlot Express but I definitely recommend Pizza Planet over it. Backlot is my least favorite counter service in all of Disney.

Commenting on Day 5 ~ September 16th

They have a very cute Magic Shot that they do in AK where they take a picture and then add in Baby Simba. Try to get that one if you can.

If you want to do Rafiki's do it as early as possible and you might get to see a precedure with the Vets over there.

AK used to be our least Favorite park and I guess technically it still is but it moved up a bunch of notches on this past trip. We walked all the trails and Gabriel loved see the animals and birds.

FT BBQ is my favorite Counter Service restaurant in all of Disney so I hope you get to eat there.

Commenting on Day 6 ~ September 17th ~ DH'S BIRTHDAY!!!!!

You can be 15 minutes late for your ADR so even if they hold you until 4pm you can still make it to LTT.

I am not a big fan of shopping in brick and morter stores but I do love the outlets in Kissimmee.

I completely agree - Boo to You is the best parade Disney has ever had.

Commenting on Day 7 ~ September 18th

Alex will love Disney Jr live. Gabriel still loves it and he has completely out grown Disney Jr. However he loves to dance and all the kids stand up and dance through the whole show.


Commenting on Day 8 ~ September 19th

We have lots of family in Orlando and surrounding areas so squeezing in visits is something we need to coordinate also.

Commenting on Day 9 ~ September 20th (last day at the parks) *sniff*

You will get alot done at MK on a party day because most people that do not have park hoppers do not bother with this park on party days. We deliberately plan our MK days for party days for this exact reason.

Commenting on purchases

Some really great purchases.

I love you Tees. I have the pink Perry also. DS's Monster's inc. and Just keep swimming are really cute.

I love DS's suit case

Just 7 more days

I am like you - vacation is my signal to clean my car. It does not usually get cleaned in between.

We are dreading the love bugs this year because we are driving my DHs brand new truck. We will be bringing a bucket and sponge to clean them off when we get there because we do not want them sitting on the paint for 2 weeks.

Hoping for a very light hatching this trip. Last year they were not bad at all but the year before that they were crazy. It was especially hard that trip because my niece was just 4 and she hated them. They land on you constantly and even though they are harmless she screamed bloody murder everytime so someone had to walk by her stroller at all times and be on love bug watch

Yeah we're going to do our best to get there early that morning.

We have eaten at both. I do like Pizza Planet more. It's been a long time since we've been to BE.

Oh cute! Will have to try and get that one. Thanks

Nice definitely want to see that! I think we are going to do the Safari first and then I'll try to get the gang to mosey over to Rafiki's

I really enjoyed seeing the animals the one time we took time in AK. IDK what it is about that park. I just always feel closed in and feel like I need to get out of there.

I'm really excited about FT BBQ. I hope I can talk DH into trying it.

That's right I forgot about that. Thanks for reminding me!

Oh yes they really do have some great stores there! Love it too.

It sure is! I cannot wait to see it again!

Aww that's nice that she still enjoys it! I really hope Alex gets more into it this time.

It's always nice to see family on a Disney trip too. Kill two birds with one stone.

I'm really hoping so! I've heard so far that the crowds are lower than ever right now so I really hope it stays that way for while we are there.

Haha glad I'm not the only one!

boo Yeah don't blame you there! Hope the bugs aren't too bad. I haven't seen anyone mention them in the FB group yet though.

Yikes!! Hope you're able to find everything! I know I'll forget something but hopefully it's not something we can't live without.

Well BIG news!!!! We decided to head down a day early!!!!!!!!!! We are in the car now about to hit the highway. I had to rush around and finish packing this morning. Thank GOD I had already started packing lol! I've made another dining change. Got rid of H&V lunch for mama melrose's lunch and got tuskar house lunch on AK day. Think Alex will like that better. Anyways, we should get to Disney by dinner time tonight. We are staying tonight at AoA in a LM room can't wait!!!!!! We plan on just chilling tomorrow. Shopping, swimming and resort hopping lol

Here's a pic of Alex all ready to go!

And here's one of him in the car a few min ago playing with Mouse. He's very excited!!!!!

This will probably be my last post until we get back on the 21st but if you want to follow me on Instagram I'll try to post pics on there daily. My name is Leger13. I have it private so just request to see my pics and I'll approve see y'all on the flip side!!!!

We are on the road home!! Left Disney around 5am this morning. We are all exhausted and can't wait to get home and sleep in our own beds but we had a GREAT trip minus a few blips here and there. I can't wait to get my TR started I think I have about 1200 pictures to share.
