Josh got home just in time to dig my car out! :thumbsup2 But he had to use personal time just to go home they wanted them to stay longer :scared: The streets are clear now but it is depressing. It had already started to feel like spring!
I know. My daughter was seriously depressed about the snow. I think she thought it was spring and didn't understand why it was in fact spring.

They're all so cute! I thought of ordering Josh one but they were kind of expensive and they weren't on the shop parks app so I didn't get the AP discount.
I know! I ended up not buying one. I had it in my cart and with shipping and tac. I was just like, am I crazy?!? (I wanted the travel mug for me) nope.. Maybe they will have some one sale?!? or are they made to order?
 
I love your sweatshirt from TheMainStreetPress! Going to check that site out :thumbsup2 I love all your outfits all the time actually! You find the coolest sites.
We got the same as you did snow-wise and the kids had THREE days off from school! Now we're supposed to get another couple inches tomorrow and more possibly on Tues. Where was all this snow in Jan. & Feb?? It just better stay away next Sat. when we head down to Disney :smickey:
Your Chicage trip is so close! Oh and I've never seen Wicked but have wanted to for so long. I'm also dying to see the Book Of Mormon. And Aladdin. Guess I need to get to the city!
 
Glad you enjoyed your night out and were first to the bathroom during intermission! :)

Love, love the crockpot!

I'm not even looking at your ADRs this far out from your trip, bc I know they will 100% change before September. Hahahaha.

I don't think I would ever enjoy Chicago in winter. There is a reason I live in the South and almost always go to the beach or Disney for my vacations! I HATE the cold weather. But I'm sure you guys will have a great time!

Btw, I love that Cars sweatshirt. My boys are obsessed with Cars! It's actually a pretty good movie. We'll be seeing Cars 3 this summer at the theatre.

Oh and I love the whole Disney attraction March Madness thing. I hate basketball - I enjoy most other sports and am a college football nut - so this is something I can enjoy and participate in. I would like to buy one for my DH but not sure which one. Are they on the Shop parks app or the Disney Store online?
 

Joining in from my trip report. I still have LOTS to catch up on, but I am DYING to hear how the Marceline tour goes! We did Keys to the Kingdom a few years ago and really enjoyed it. I recently watched the PBS special on Walt and found it to be fascinating! I learned so much I didn't know.

I'm also thinking about changing Mama Melrose to the Brown Derby in September,
I last minute changed our Mama Melrose slot for Sanaa.. The menu looks fine it just doesn't wow me. I would think Brown Derby would be better. But I have never been there either.

I love the celebrating buttons as well. Those might make a good Tinkerbell Gift for the girls one morning. Those from Easy somewhere?

Have a great trip to Chicago! I wish I was going somewhere this weekend!

The shirt is from brandbyyou, but I have no idea where those ears are from :sad2: that's not my picture it's the one from the site. The ears I have aren't as cute as those.

We went to the Brown Derby and liked it. You're right it looks okay but doesn't wow me. I might try another Italian place.

It's from parkboundbuttons they have their own site. There are sooo many!

Thank you!

Thanks. Those ears are awesome! Love the shirts here too!

Love it! Just added it to my to-get list!

Thanks!
 
Your Tangled outfits are soooooo cute!!!! And those ears...amazing. OMG I just realized I need some sort of tangled outfit but I don't have one...I guess I'll have to go shopping. i od have an Ariel dress that I wore to Disneyland last year so maybe I'l just wear that. Steve pretty much only wants to wear Gaston-themed things from now on so I ordered him a few more Gaston t-shirts. LOL.

I used to do trivia too! That was when we lived in NYC and we'd always go to this place in the village wednesday nights. Our team won probably 30% of the time, but it was a crowded trivia night! Trivia nights are so much fun and I kinda miss that.

Hope you're having a great time in Chicago! Are you gonna eat Chicago pizza? I really like it (don't tell anyone since I am technically a New Yorker)!! :duck:
 
I was so far behind, I apologize for how long this is!

You're probably all sick of the car updates, but I'll include one anyway! (And I get to use that car driving emoticon!):rotfl: Still nothing much going on, I'm waiting on the check, and looking at getting my muffler repaired on Friday (unrelated to the accident). They called today to say they haven't even received the paperwork I sent in on Friday so it'll probably be another week or more till the check goes out. :sad2:

This seems so crazy! I'm pretty sure I had my car accident after you had yours, and within 2 weeks I had the money in my bank account from the settlement.

We ate so much I was sooo full! Isn't that always how it goes at the Cheesecake Factory though? :laughing:

Seriously though, when are you adopting me to be your big sister? I just want to go to the Cheesecake Factory!!

It was a Kat Von D alchemist holographic highlighting palette.

I honestly have no idea what it does it looked like silver glitter to me. She said it brightens under the eyes? :confused: I have highlighting powder, and I think it's the most useless thing I own. Maybe I'm using it wrong, but it doesn't brighten anything it makes it look like you smeared glitter on your face...so I mostly use it as eyeshadow.

Haha, that is pretty much me with makeup. I have highlighter as well, but mine isn't glittery... but I don't think it really does much of anything?

Today is 3.5 years with Josh! :love:

Congratulations you two!

He also thinks it's silly to get more because he only wears them on vacation anyway.

Luke was like that at first. Now he wears all his Disney shirts to work proudly :goodvibes

But I had to get him a Flynn Rider one for breakfast

That's a great shirt! And obviously he needed it!

As for Sep we've narrowed down ADRs, (we book on the 12th) but I didn't plan out which days we'll be there until right now so it may change:

Fri-Arrival Day-Hs
Mama melrose-1:30 pm
Beaches and Cream-10 pm

Sat-Boardwalk/Stop at MK or AK/DS
Cape May Cafe-10:30 am
Boathouse-7 pm

Sun-MK
Kona cafe-8:30 am
I wanted to do GF Cafe but Josh loves Kona so maybe we can squeeze it into Dec or switch Kona there.
Ltt-2:30 pm
I wish we could go later, but I'm only interested in the lunch menu.

Mon-Epcot
Food & wine
Le cellier-7 pm

Tues-Resort hop and Ds/MNSSHP
1900 PF-10 am
Dluxe burger-prior to party

Wed-AK
Yak and yeti-11-11:30 am
Whenever it opens.
Boma-6:30 pm

I look forward to seeing these plans change 14 dozen times :rotfl:

Each flight was only $92 each way!

So jealous of the flight deals you guys get in the States!

If you watch New Girl Josh thinks Olaf reminds him of Winston :rotfl:

Winnie-the-Bish is awesome!

We have also heard Pandora may be soft opening while were there.

I finally watched Avatar! I'm now really excited to see Pandora in January!

I plan to have some more relaxing time than in the past.

Relaxing time on a Disney vacation? What's this foreign concept?

I couldn't pass up the CBR deal to get $75 in gift cards a night. I don't think the construction will bother us, and we weren't planning on eating at the hotel anyway. The gift cards could pay for a lot of our meals, and we'll still get the AP discount so we decided we couldn't refuse an offer like that.

This is a great deal! I'm the same as you - the construction wouldn't bother me at all, and $75/night in gift cards will really help offset the cost of your meals!


Cute shirt!

I have 0 car updates once again :laughing: The check just cleared this week,

About time!

We had a work snow day today!

I miss snow days :( Living on the East Coast, we used to get them all the time. Now, living in Alberta we never get the huge dumps of snow - it still snows often in the winter, but it's never measured in feet - it's typically just small dustings. And cold.

I usually have no problem taking pictures of other people's food, but that's because Josh is used to it. I try to tone that down around people who don't know about disboards and ptrs/trs :rotfl:

Haha, Luke just pushes his plate towards me now to take a picture before he even starts eating.


So cute!

I got this sweatshirt from Brandbyyou. I love the color of it so much, but I feel like a fraud because I haven't actually ever seen Cars. I plan to watch it soon, probably this weekend though.

I LOVE this sweatshirt! And I can't believe you've never watched Cars! You need to watch it, and then we can go to Cars Land at DCA together!

Finally this is probably my favorite sweatshirt ever. I got it from TheMainStreetPress. It is so warm and comfy, and not at all a cheaper fabric like I thought it might be. I also got Jenna a zip up EE one for her birthday that she may bring.

This one is cute too!

I got the dress for American Eagle years ago, but the bag is from Brooke and Style. It ships from China and there's a lot of colors available. If they're out though, a lot of companies seem to sell them.

I saw that bag on AliExpress as well!

I also had time to record 2 "about me" vlogs for my channel today. I'm kind of nervous to post these because stuff like this is so far outside my comfort zone, but part of doing this was I wanted to push myself to try something new that I had been wanting to do. If you want to go watch the link is on my insta and in my signature! Or just google "Happiest Haunt youtube channel".

You've mentioned before about wanting to do this! I'll have to go check it out!


That outfit is so cute!

This week Star Wars dessert parties finally became bookable for May! :cheer2: So I booked one for our HS night. I've wanted to do this since we canceled in September, and if we were going to see the Star Wars fireworks instead of Fantasmic I wanted to do it with the dessert party.

Yay! We loved the Star Wars dessert party, and drank a lot to justify the cost haha.
 
I love the Tangled outfits. I know those particular ears aren't yours but where do you usually get your ears? Are they the wide comfy headbands? I almost always wore headbands on my trip last year but they were just plain, so I thought I would try to get some ears this time.

Are you still in Chicago? How is/was it??
 
Let me preface this TR with saying this was my first dismeet!
Yay!!! :bounce:

Since neither of those things happened and we had a lot of fun, I'd count this as a successful trip. :thumbsup2
More yay!! :yay:

watched the sun rise twice.
That's cool!

After confirming to my dad that Jenna was who she said she was...

Screen%20Shot%202017-03-27%20at%2011.13.13%20PM.png
Good to hear. LOL :rotfl:

we took our first selfie:
Great photo!

It was 76 degrees in Chicago so I ended up swapping my planned outfit for a tshirt before I left.
Who'da thunk it?? I obviously know nboting about Chicago...lol.

So we sought some shad under the Bean.

Screen%20Shot%202017-03-27%20at%2011.10.14%20PM.png
That looks cool.

I believe our drink was the Lollipop Passion.

Screen%20Shot%202017-03-27%20at%2011.11.02%20PM.png
Wow! Nice!

Jenna had french onion soup which she said was good. I'll take her word for it because it looked cheesy and that's my favorite part of french onion soup!

Screen%20Shot%202017-03-27%20at%2011.11.12%20PM.png
I love French Onion soup.

Later that night we started getting ready because we were going to see...

Beauty and the Beast! :cheer2:
Fun! I still haven't seen it. I think Mom and I are going Saturday.

Anyway we ordered a medium popcorn, and when we got it Jenna reached into the top and pulled out an entire thing of lip balm :confused:
Wha????? :confused3

They ended up upgrading us to a larger size for free as an apology.
Good to hear.

I loved the movie! Though I do still like the animated version better.
:thumbsup2
