Cruising towards 10 days of fun... a July/Nov 2012- & We're BACK!!! Pg.50-51

[that's nice]

Kathy & Mark sent the kids a few goodies for Valentine's Day.. here are a few pictures of them opening their packages.

Hummm... what could be in here?

Mickey bags!

Gotta love Tink!

Juliana received candy and stickers!!

Christopher liked his Toy Story card.

Wild boy!

Look Christopher- TIGGER!

Thank you Kathy & Mark!!! (click on the picture to see the video)




Thanks Kathy for thinking of the kids!!!

That video is priceless. I love it when the kids make up songs.

I love when Juliana starts singing and Christopher starts staring at her.

Believe me, there are plenty of made up songs in this house!

Ours too. I actually wish I had a video of the one DH made up last night as I was changing Meadow. He was playing a child"s guitar and singing about poop. When we were finished Meadow stood up and started clapping and shouting yeah! It was a special moment.

Oh my goodness! Wait till Kathy sees these sweet pics and video! Your babies look so happy and smiley, what a bunch of little cuties you have there. Christopher's big drooling smile is too precious! Ana looks beautiful as usual and older! And I absolutely loved the video with Ana, she's such a little ham. She reminds me sooo much of my youngest DD8. Hmm, she makes up her own songs? And you're a DJ? Looks like you two should go into business together! Does she make up any songs about Puppy or pink Cinderella?

Yay for POFQ! I really want to try that one out one day but when I looked online, for some reason it wouldn't let me price out a room. Maybe because we're a family of five I guess? I don't know. But they have those refurbished rooms now and they look so cool! I believe they're themed after The Princess and The Frog? Anyhow, the property looks gorgeous, I'll bet you guys will love it. We had the beignets a couple of summers ago and they are insanely good. Like little slices of happiness all dusted with powdered sugar. You could make a meal out of a couple of them and they serve them nice and warm too. Totally a good reason to stay at POFQ. Totally.

As for making ADR's for all those people, good luck! Are they easy going and willing to let you take the reins?

Your trip dates make perfect sense too, less missed school time for Ana. We're still toying with our dates but it would be so fun to meet you, Mel and the kids! We'll see.

 

[pinkxray]

They were great Although I don't think anything fried and covered in sugar could not be.

 

[mommy2mrb]

ok, staying 10 days, I say you will have beignets 6 times!

the mattresses at POFQ are great! I always have problems sleeping when we travel and didn't this time!
bonus staying there is a fridge and coffee pot in the room! I bring my own instant coffee though, don't like disney's

you can just take the boat back and forth for fun!

the photo and video of the kids! Megan does the same thing with making up songs, must be a girl thing! Christopher looks so much like Ana ...same big beautiful eyes!

LOL... now that is something to be proud of!

Oh my goodness! Wait till Kathy sees these sweet pics and video!

I have no idea where Kathy is? I told her I was posting them?

Your babies look so happy and smiley, what a bunch of little cuties you have there. Christopher's big drooling smile is too precious! Ana looks beautiful as usual and older!

Thank you! They BOTH are growing up too quick.

And I absolutely loved the video with Ana, she's such a little ham. She reminds me sooo much of my youngest DD8. Hmm, she makes up her own songs? And you're a DJ? Looks like you two should go into business together! Does she make up any songs about Puppy or pink Cinderella?

She makes songs up about anything. Usually dancing is included!

Maybe we could get rich? Or at least become an internet sensation.

Hummmm... I think the trundle beds are only at POR? I could be wrong. Maybe that is why you couldn't book POFQ.

MMMMMMMMM..... I can't wait to eat those beignets. {insert picture of a drooling Homer Simpson here}

As for making ADR's for all those people, good luck! Are they easy going and willing to let you take the reins?

I think they will. We already discussed some options.... except I can't find the paper I wrote that on. I should probably try to find that.

Your trip dates make perfect sense too, less missed school time for Ana. We're still toying with our dates but it would be so fun to meet you, Mel and the kids! We'll see.

Interesting! That would be cool if we got to meet ya!

They were great Although I don't think anything fried and covered in sugar could not be.

Very true!!!!

ok, staying 10 days, I say you will have beignets 6 times!

A day?

bonus staying there is a fridge and coffee pot in the room! I bring my own instant coffee though, don't like disney's

We will have a rental car so I'm sure we will make a stop at the store for some bottled water, snacks, beer, and whatever else we forgot to bring.

you can just take the boat back and forth for fun!

True! It's like a 'free' ride!

the photo and video of the kids! Megan does the same thing with making up songs, must be a girl thing! Christopher looks so much like Ana ...same big beautiful eyes!

Maybe we could get Megan & Juliana on tour?

You think they look alike? I didn't see it till I broke out pics of Juliana as a baby.

I am in love with this picture! I have a picture on my desktop at home of my "Arizona kids" and now I have this picture on my office computer as my desktop of the "Wild Boy" (Juliana's picture is in a frame on my desk).

Look Christopher- TIGGER!

Thank you Kathy & Mark!!! (click on the picture to see the video)




Thanks Kathy for thinking of the kids!!!

I loved the video and got a tad teary-eyed too...such beautiful children you and Mel have created.

 

[that's nice]

And puzzles too!

I knew there was something else in there... I just forgot.

I am in love with this picture! I have a picture on my desktop at home of my "Arizona kids" and now I have this picture on my office computer as my desktop of the "Wild Boy" (Juliana's picture is in a frame on my desk).

He is silly... but he is such a good boy.

I loved the video and got a tad teary-eyed too...such beautiful children you and Mel have created.

Thank you Kathy! They are really good kids. (and I'm not just saying that because I'm their dad)

(I was wondering when you were going to stop by here and check it out. )

It took me forever to do all the responses on my TR last night, and work was hectic earlier.

I'm trying to type up my next update so I can copy and paste it with the pictures tonight because I have to be at the high school Friday and Saturday for wrestling.

No worries!

I'll be back later... I'm being called to the Mickey room.

 

[marvali]

OH, well thanks for the heads up there.........buddy! Page 9 already......

Kathy and Molly will NEVER let me live this one down! Even Judy beat me here!

Now I just hope Rosie hasn't made it by yet or I may just have to close my DIS account in shame.............

 

[mommy2mrb]

A day?

I hope not 6 A DAY! I ment 6 days you will have them...so that will be a total of 18 if you don't share

We will have a rental car so I'm sure we will make a stop at the store for some bottled water, snacks, beer, and whatever else we forgot to bring.

that's good!


True! It's like a 'free' ride!
free is always good in Disney

Maybe we could get Megan & Juliana on tour?

ya the Ana and Megan show I can just see it now
You think they look alike? I didn't see it till I broke out pics of Juliana as a baby.

I do! not identical but you can tell they are brother and sister and their eyes look the same in the photos to me! you too stinkin cute

 

[Moira222]

Funny thing about the cruise turning into DisneyWorld. If we were to cruise, we would want a view. and I really wanted to be on vacation ON our anniversary - which a cruise would not let us do. but the view made the cruise that we would pick be as much as our WDW trip. (Actually Joe's exact words were "GEEZ! for that much money we might as well go to Disney World" mmmmm OKAY!!!

Where? This was a fun one! (I hope you're ready for this) I wanted to stay at CSR, but Melody didn't want to. Dave & Branda didn't want to stay at CBR (they just stayed there) Bill & Jamie didn't really care. So where did that leave us? Looking at POR & POFQ. We read all kinds of reviews and we thought staying at the smaller of the two would be better with the baby (who will be 15 months at the time) Not to mention I can eat beignets every day! We requested a first floor room near a courtyard.

Borrowed from the interweb

I always think POFQ and POR look pretty but there's no way DH would deal with random clown faces and harlequin masks popping out at him everywhere

As far as that other pic... I think we should wait a while for that one...

Wow you make a good pirate .... I would NOT want to run into you in a dark alley

The only 'problem' with that week is it is Jersey Week. I hear it is a zoo... but we've been going at the beginning of March for the last few years and hitting the start of Spring Break Season. It can't be any worse than that... could it?

Jersey week? because people wear foot ball jerseys or because Disney turns into Jersey Shore Orlando???

Thank you Kathy & Mark!!! (click on the picture to see the video)

wait wait wait! Where is that petite little princess? Who is this big girl? OMG she has grown so much Tim! and what a great big sister! and your "baby" is practically a toddler already. WOW!

 

[Poolrat]

You will like POFQ. It is a nice compact resort. We ended up in Building 1 and it was a 2 min walk from the bus to the room.

An easy walk to POR too.

Beignets

Just pretend that is a beignet.

 

[that's nice]

OH, well thanks for the heads up there.........buddy! Page 9 already......

Hey there Mr. Marv.

I didn't want to bother you. I know you've been busy. I thought that BIG link in my signature would give it away.

Kathy and Molly will NEVER let me live this one down! Even Judy beat me here!

Don't be so hard on yourself.

Now I just hope Rosie hasn't made it by yet or I may just have to close my DIS account in shame.............

I hope not 6 A DAY! I ment 6 days you will have them...so that will be a total of 18 if you don't share

free is always good in Disney

Yea, except free doesn't exist in Disney.

I do! not identical but you can tell they are brother and sister and their eyes look the same in the photos to me! you too stinkin cute

Well thank you!

Yea, except free doesn't exist in Disney.

sure it does....the transportation is free....oh wait you have to pay to stay at the resort to get it for free

Well thank you!

guess I made a typo....meant to say they are too stinkin' cute....NOT YOU

Sounds like you have Joe thinking on your wave length.

[/SIZE] [/SIZE]

I was going through more POFQ pics tonight and it does seem a little 'busy' in places.

Wow you make a good pirate .... I would NOT want to run into you in a dark alley

Awwww... I'm like a big teddy bear. (just pretend that is a teddy bear. LOL)

Jersey week? because people wear foot ball jerseys or because Disney turns into Jersey Shore Orlando???

I think it turns into an unofficial Snooky convention.

wait wait wait! Where is that petite little princess? Who is this big girl? OMG she has grown so much Tim! and what a great big sister! and your "baby" is practically a toddler already. WOW!

She is getting so big! Christopher weighs 17 LBS and is 6 months old (as of last week). The kid is solid!

You will like POFQ. It is a nice compact resort. We ended up in Building 1 and it was a 2 min walk from the bus to the room.

An easy walk to POR too.

I can't wait! I am getting excited and this trip is 10 months away!

Beignets

Just pretend that is a beignet.

I'd take that donut too!!!!
