Your late night at the MK sounds like so much fun! It sounds like the boys did great staying up so late. And I love the Mickey straws at Columbia Harbour House!

Your boys were pretty impressive at Teppen Edo, between Andrew being able to say some things in Japanese and Blake eating his meal with chopsticks.

The straws are super cute. I bet your boys would love 'em!

Teppan Edo was great, too. I wish we'd managed another trip there, and I'm not really sure why I didn't add one. Something for the next time, I guess.

Back at CBR, we were met with something that happens all too often at Disney break time. Both of the boys had drifted off in the car, so they were bursting with energy when it stopped. The short car break wasn’t enough to have them rested, but it all attempts at another nap were going nowhere. Giving up on the idea, more CBR exploring began. Andrew missed out on that playground time before and couldn’t wait to check it out.

They all had a nice time playing until we began to think about dinner plans. John took the boys to get some “thinking drinks” while I headed back to the room to get my stuff together. When my boys were back, they’d even brought something special for me.

They’re too sweet. You can see Andrew lost his issues with flowers as Blake got bigger and loved to pick them for me! We loaded up into the car soon and headed back out into the world. Our first stop was a gas fill up. This evening was pure excitement..

Now it was time for dinner. The thinking drinks weren’t all that effective, so out thoughts hadn’t resulted in anything. We played with the idea of another MK night, but decided against it. It was late enough and there were early morning plans the next day. We’d just find something off property and let this day go with more CBR fun.

“Where do you want to go?” John asked me.

“Just drive.”

And so he did. With absolutely nothing in mind, we set out to see if anything caught our interest. Blake made his usual plea for Olive Garden, but didn’t win. Neither of us really had a clue where we were, but did make some new discoveries. We finally saw where Medieval Times was. I instantly craved a Pepsi. I’ve always wanted to check that place out, but we only managed the Arabian Nights place years ago. (My Review- Food was awful, but the show was neat!) We also saw a sign to turn for GKTW. After reading so many TRs that take place there, I wondered where it was at.

Deciding that we weren’t going to find anything new and exciting, my little family decided it would be best to just grab something at CBR. So much for filling up the car, huh? John prepared to turn around at the next light when something caught our eye. A Friendly’s was ahead! I had no idea what this place was, but had spent year after year hearing my husband bring it up on the long list of things he liked about living in Connecticut. Even though I was pretty certain I’d read some awful reviews of this place in a TR, we now couldn’t go anywhere else!

Once inside, we were met by a crazy perky women who announced that it was kids’ night. Perfect! The boys were each given tickets for a drawing that would be held every so often while we ate. We were directed to a booth and proceeded to have a wonderful dinner. It wasn’t exciting food, but it was good enough for our tummies at the time. I think I got some sort of battered and fried fish plate. Noticed the trend? I think this may be my favorite junk meal. I haven’t a clue what anyone else had.

I do remember the most exciting part of our meal was the dessert! This is the part John claimed to have missed about Friendly’s up north. We spent quite a while going over the ice cream options before making an order.

Andrew went with a kids’ “make your own” type of sundae. He got to pick the topping choices and declared it way more fun than what he gets at Disney.

John didn’t take very long to come up with a banana split for himself..

This was a tough choice for me, but I ultimately picked a “Nuts Over Caramel” sundae to share with Blake. It was soooo good, but I would’ve preferred walnuts instead of almonds. Oddly, almonds are my favorite nut, just not on ice cream. We didn’t come close to finishing this thing!

Andrew’s finished product He loved making this, but didn’t eat much of it

The meal was great. No one had a single complaint and the ice cream was sooo good!

The service was great. Our waitress was adorable and spent a lot of time talking Disney with the boys. It didn’t seem that she had ever been. The manager at the time stuck around to chat quite a bit, too. She was from somewhere near where John lived, I think. They shared stories about New England and thoughts on Florida. She was so nice!

What wasn’t great was that we weren’t having much luck on this prize drawing! The boys both got super excited each time a new ticket was called, but their numbers never matched up. Just as I was paying to go, the very last drawing would work out for Andy-Roo. His number was called and he won a prize!

It’s one of those marker coloring posters? I think he would’ve been thrilled with anything, so long as he won.

Despite not being called, Blakers wasn’t left out of this. No one was left out at all on kids’ night actually. The employees had a big box of silly toys on the way out. Every child that didn’t win was allowed to trade their ticket for one pick. It was an assortment of cheapy plastic things that any little boy would go wild for. Blake knew what he wanted right away..

He looks great, right? He LOVED those silly glasses!

Friendly’s was a huge hit for us and we knew we’d check it out again sometime. It was another lesson in trusting reviews, too. Just because someone else has a bad experience somewhere doesn’t mean that you won’t love it. While not Disney at all, it was a sweet addition to our vacation visit!

We all walked out to freezing Florida and hurried to the car. It had gotten much colder outside! It was time to get back to CBR for bed. As a night before, we made it to the resort just as fireworks were lighting the sky. I tried to snap a picture from the car, but it didn’t work out. John drove around a bit so we could get an idea of where to watch from if we were ever at the resort before they started. With only two more days at CBR, I wasn’t sure if this would work out or not.

Bathtimes and bed followed, with setting a super early wake-up call for the next day, too. Tomorrow was “Operation Tangled” and we needed to be at MK before rope drop. Andrew never gave up on his desire to do Rapunzel & Flynn Rider’s M&G, and I never let go of the promise that we’d make it happen. We made official plans for tomorrow.

You know how well we do with plans...

 

[AprilRenee]

Yay!! I've been thinking about you guys and wondering when you were going to do another update (yeah I know...I have NO room to talk...I'm gonna get moving again on mine VERY soon!!!)

Love the pic of Blake with the goofy glasses! Sounds like you had a nice night even without Disney being super involved!

I hope you get to meet Rapunzel....though it's not looking very promising given your "coming up next" comment...hmmm...

 

[snowmanlover]

Great update! Love all your pictures, the boys are so stinkin' cute! Glad Andrew is liking school! The picture of Blake with the silly glasses made me laugh out loud! Good thing I'm home alone!! We've been to Friendly's (not that one) a few times and don't mind it.

DH and I were at Disney World last week and I thought of you when we ate at CHH! I had fish and DH had the shrimp! He said last night it was his favorite meal of the trip! We have eaten at CHH before but never went upstairs and let me tell you, that was the place to be!! We did CS meals all week. We did have a reservation for a sit down but canceled it.

I thought of Andy Roo when I saw "his girl!" Also thought of you guys when I saw a pizza flyer under our door or in it, can't remember where it was.

I have a new appreciation for people like you that take little ones to DW AND write these trip reports! We took pictures, not many because we got tired of carrying the camera! Maybe if the kids were with us (my "kids" are 24 and 27) we would have taken more pictures. Neither DH or I want our picture taken these days!! We did manage 1 of us for proof we were at DW together!

 

[Dugette]

Sounds like a nice finish to your evening! I'm glad your restaurant risk worked out! Can't go wrong with ice cream, though. Yours looked really good. Loved Blake's glasses!

 

[CAStevens218]

Friendly's!!!!! We can almost always count on a good burger there! Hmmm, I may need to get myself there soon now that you mentioned it! We have two in my town alone!

I love the picture of the boys crossing the bridge at CBR, they look so cute in their matching colors! And Blake in his glasses too!!!

I hope you made it to the Tangled meet and greet!!

Those glasses were too funny and we really did have a nice time. I am starting to feel like we spent a ton of time leaving Disney for stuff this year though.

We had high hopes of making this happen with Rapunzel since the next day had an 8am opening at MK. We definitely wanted to be there early after all the long wait stories I'd read. We'll see how that worked out in a minute..

I'm so jealous! Hope you had a great trip!! Isn't upstairs at CHH just wonderful? I wish I was there right now! Glad you took a "proof" picture together at least. We were kinda bad about pictures before the boys and I wish we'd done more. I can see being tired of lugging a camera around anyway.

Sounds like a nice finish to your evening! I'm glad your restaurant risk worked out! Can't go wrong with ice cream, though. Yours looked really good. Loved Blake's glasses!

That ice cream was so good! Stores around here carry Friendly's now, but nobody seems to have that kind. It's probably a good thing. That stuff was super yummy!

I was so happy that we were able to fill John's craving for that place without leaving the state!

That bridge pic is one of my favorites. This was one of John's and I loved that he caught the boys stepping at the same time, too!

Tangled coming right up.. or not. You know how we work.

 

[jc040404]

The phone always rang so early. For once, I didn’t just quiet the noise and go back to sleep. This Tangled plan was serious and we were set on making it happen for Andy-Roo. In no time, I was dressed and filling bowls with Life cereal for the boys. As wild as it was, everything was going according to plan for us.

Then it happened. A bright flash lit the room around the curtains and a loud clap of thunder made Blakers squeal. We peeked outside. Yep, it was just starting to pour!

I turned on the television..

Light rain? They needed to look out the window!

So much for Rapunzel! I knew they couldn’t possibly be running the M&G in this and didn’t have a clue how things would work if the rain ever let up. A few minutes of the weather channel informed us that this wasn’t going to be a quick passing Florida storm.

The boys crunched on the cereal and I sat down on the bed. Another plan ruined! Fortunately for us, the boys weren’t terribly upset over it all. There isn’t much any of us can do about rain. Blake finished his breakfast and glued himself to the window to watch it come down. Andrew chose to hop on the bed and watch cartoons. They were sad about our Tangled plans, but seemed content with hanging out in the room until this passed.

I wasn’t such a fan of that idea and grabbed my listing of park hours. MK wasn’t a requirement anymore, so we’d just find something else. Besides, I had kept those ponchos in the car and needed to prove my husband wrong. We would wear them again! A family vote and a check with Dining later, it was settled. We're headed to Hollywood!

We made it to the DHS parking lot just after opening time, but you wouldn’t have thought it by the lack of cars. We managed a second row spot with a short walk to the turnstiles. Andrew and I slipped our awesome Disney ponchos on and began the journey in the rain. John and Blake claimed not to need them, but I had a feeling they’d change their minds soon.

Sure enough, before making it into the park, Blake complained of his legs getting wet and my wonderful husband decided to admit defeat. Ponchos aren’t so bad and he’d wear one. We paused at the little shop before going into the park and asked for two. A child’s poncho was a bit large on Blake, but he loved being a big kid like brother.

The rain began to let up a bit as we walked deeper into the park, but it grew much colder. It was nice under the ponchos, but I did hope this day would warm up. We weren’t packed for this weather! After a TSM FP collection, we definitely needed to find something inside.

How cute are they in ponchos?? While I realize I’m the mommy and find them adorable at all times, I LOVE those pics!

We moved into the Animation Building to warm up and wait until Disney Junior started shows for the day. It turned out to be the perfect hideaway. There weren’t many guests in here at all, but there were so many characters! It seemed that everyone we normally rush by at DHS was hiding out from the rain, too.

We first met Chip & Dale..

The chipmunks weren’t awake just yet, so no fun stories from that visit.

The only rough part about meeting everyone in here was that all the pictures were terrible! My camera is pretty sad and I’m not a photographer anyway. I expected they wouldn’t be the best, but thought the photopass pics weren’t very wonderful either. That was too bad. You can probably tell who took what pic..

Next, Andrew would peek down the stairs to see Eeyore & Tigger! We were excited to see another couple hiding out from the storm and started to rush down to see them. The Photopass photographer and Andrew had a little fun as we made it to the line..

There was only one family ahead of us so it was the boys’ turn in seconds!

Tigger must’ve been full of bouncy energy this day because he was in the best mood we’d ever seen. Andrew loved how wild he was being and I loved how he posed for this pic! Too cute! These two had to run off after our visit and Tigger even made an entertaining exit. Loved him!

After our 100 Acre friends, it was time for hugs with Minnie.

She was a sweetie. Another CM with her was being extra grumpy while we waited for the one family in front of us. Minnie didn’t seem to appreciate it and waved her hand at the CM a couple of times. It was hilarious. The CM was either a character attendant or a PP person, I forget, but seemed to be a in a big hurry. It was adorable that Minnie took her time with each child anyway. It wasn’t as if she had much of a line and was soon standing with no one to visit! Silly CM. She must’ve forgotten who Minnie’s boyfriend is..

After our Minnie visit, we turned around to see that Pooh and Piglet managed to sneak into Tigger & Eeyore’s spot.

Next, we noticed that Chip & Dale had been replaced with Donald & Daisy!

Andrew loved these two and complimented both on their outfits. He thought Donald’s hat was awesome and Daisy had “such cute shoes!” haha.. She loved it!

What a crazy way to start the day. The only characters we really had to wait for were Donald and Daisy. Even then, the wait time was only about five minutes. The boys were thrilled about the rain now and couldn’t believed we managed so many characters in such a short time. Rapunzel would happen another day. They collected some needed autographs for their books, too! This looks like a great place to hang out in the rain.

Since we’d gone back up the stairs, John and Andrew checked into drawing class and found a seat to wait. Blake and I followed routine and were off to claim a game.

After a bit of painting, Mickey stole Blaker’s attention so we headed over for a visit. We even remembered to finally get the big guy’s autograph this time.

Just as it had been the last time, Blake’s pose was a huge hit!

Wondering what else we could find to fill our time, Blake spotted his favorite friend again.

“Just one more Eeyore hug, mommy?”

How could anyone not fill this request? We jumped in the line to wait. As time passed, the area had gotten a little more full. There were four families ahead of us, but he didn’t mind it at all. Eeyore hugs are worth the wait!

The CM with them did remember us from all of our morning character hopping and asked if we’d seen Goofy or Pluto yet. I said we hadn’t noticed them at all, so he shared where they were “hiding” by the other stairs. I didn’t think to look over there for characters before! They were definitely on the list now.

But first.. Eeyore hugs!

Blake’s turn came and he raced up to his buddy. Tigger was still in an excited mood and intercepted the little guy! I really thought this might be war between my Blakers and Tigger for a moment. It turns out that Tigger is pretty cool, too. Blake didn’t object to the hug and cuddled back for a moment..

Then it was straight to his favorite friend and a group pic.

He waved goodbye so we moved on to those other stairs..

Goofy was so silly with Blakers. He hugged the little guy super tight and pretended he’d never let go. That didn’t sit well with Blake. He was terrified! As soon as his turn was over, my baby ran as fast as he could to grab my legs. He couldn’t wait to get out of here!

I started to put their autograph books back in a ziploc when a CM started calling to me. We’d just missed a photopass photographer that was coming on duty here. She asked the next family in line if they’d mind us hopping back for a quick picture. They didn't care and stepped back for us. I was amazed. Since we were definitely buying the cd soon, I asked Blake if he’d mind posing for a quick picture. He must’ve gotten over that fear of Goofy quick because he had no problem running up for one last photo.

Next Up!! Lots more DHS fun with new rides & characters!

 

[AprilRenee]

Wow!!! What a great place to hide from the rain!!! Donald and Daisy's outfits are super cute!

Love the pic of Blake in his poncho! Hahaha! He's so cute!

 

[Dugette]

It's not just you, those poncho pics are quite cute! Love all the character meet and greets you got to do! Guess that's the place to be in the rain...who needs Tangled?! Glad your changed plans worked out so well.

 

[jc040404]

It did turn out nice! I loved the boys in those ponchos, especially Blakers. It was so big on him. I kinda wish Disney would put something on the front of them though. I'm wishing I took a shot of the backs now. I don't think we have any of the design on them!

It's not just you, those poncho pics are quite cute! Love all the character meet and greets you got to do! Guess that's the place to be in the rain...who needs Tangled?! Glad your changed plans worked out so well.

Thanks! It was nice to see so many as quickly as we did. It definitely beats standing in their lines outside!

 

[jc040404]

There wasn’t too much more time to fill before John and Andrew were done with their drawing fun. Blake and I checked out that Snow White sweeping painting again and just waited outside the room. A CM let me in on how long our wait would be and it worked out perfectly. It wasn’t too long before they were walking out with brand new works of art.

It’s Minnie!

They had a great time in class with a new-to-them teacher. Andrew loved her and somehow flirted his way into getting an extra sheet of paper to take home. He’s sweet, but too smart when it comes to things like this. He does really enjoy drawing and was excited to try a picture from his book on special DHS paper when we got home.

We took a few minutes to walk around the art store before going outside. I love that this is one of the few shops around WDW that changes! I really liked this one..

The boys played around with the idea of being Jacques and Gus for MNSSHP this year, complete with giant key! As it always seems to happen, our plans have since changed. We’re going to completely skip Mickey’s party this year for a couple of other activities that sparked their interest. Maybe next year. But don't worry, Mickey! "Official" plans now have us coming back by Christmas!

Finally outside, the rain was gone but the cold wasn’t ready to go. Our ponchos were completely dry, so we left them on for a bit of extra cover before heading to the Disney Junior line.

The CMs inside the show building weren’t big fans of our poncho decision and were really kinda mean about telling us to take them off. Since they were dry, I was a little surprised. Rules are rules, I suppose, so we didn’t protest. We stuffed them into a bag. I will admit to be slightly annoyed to see the number of poncho wearing guests that wandered in behind us and sat down without that order! I was cold!

As the room filled, it did get pretty warm fast. The show began with a brand new-to-us Casey and we absolutely loved her. The boys had fun watching and playing along, especially at the part with Jake!

Blake’s telescope.. Loved this!

It’s raining gold doubloons! Thank goodness they’re made of paper, huh? We’d be in for quite a beating!

The boys hurry to grab a few shiny treasures as they fall, but this time Andrew proved the sweet kid he can be. A little girl ahead of us was trying to collect another shiny but wasn’t having luck finding one. Andy-Roo caught what she was telling her mother, so he offered his. He’s such a sweetie sometimes!

We all love that show!

Back at the stroller, a time check revealed it was nearing our ADR already. I’d managed a very last minute spot at Sci-Fi that morning and we were pretty excited over going to a favorite again. Across the park, we checked in and were seated in our car right away.

I love these..

I did rotate those in photobucket, but it didn't seem to work?

You all know we love Sci-Fi, so I don’t have to go on about that again. We did try something different and ordered an appetizer this time. I’d read awesome things about their onion rings, so we’d all decided to split them. Unfortunately, we must’ve gotten a bad batch. They had an odd taste, probably from the oil, and weren’t very yummy. Too bad.

I did enjoy my cherry coke anyway. I had three! It’s kinda funny because I was never a soda person before we started going to WDW often. I wish I’d never started drinking the stuff, but it was so yummy here! I always spoon out the cherry and pass it on to one of the children. I think our waitress must’ve noticed this because my refills would each come with an extra cherry. I’d only ever gotten one in each on previous visits. Blake and Andrew were thrilled about that!

^One of my favorite parts!

Lunch was great and ended with another Andy-Roo & Blakers compliment! Once again, an older couple went on and on about how well behaved my boys are. Loved that! It must’ve been a rough week for kids at Disney because we sure heard a lot of horror stories! This was the only week that I’d ever had another guest tell us about the awful things they’d seen or experienced with other guests’ children. I made sure to let the boys know how proud we were of them after we left. I think the meal compliments that visit just made me worry twice as much about either of them having a meltdown later on! Haha..

Our meal was finished at a perfect time, too. It was time for Toy Story Mania! We moved back across the park and split up at the entrance to the Animation Courtyard. Each of the boys had received a Disney gift card before our trip and it must’ve been burning a hole in Blake’s pocket! He reminded us that brother had gotten that drawing book, but he hadn’t found anything “cool” for himself yet. John would take him to explore some shops while Andy-Roo and I took first spin on the ride!

No clue what the scores were. Let’s assume they were awesome, whatever “awesome” is for this thing. I still don’t get it!

We walked outside to see John and Blake were back already. The shop exploring hadn’t resulted in any “cool” finds. Too bad! We’d just have to keep looking, and Blake was okay with that. Those gift cards were such a great idea for them. They really put a lot of thought into what to get!

Back to TSM!

Thank goodness for FP!

I love this ride with Blakers. He gets more serious about it every time. On this particular visit, he managed one of the gold plates in the scene with the army men. For some reason, it was especially awesome to him because he went wild. I don’t thing either of us hit another plate with all the celebrating he wanted to do!

He raced out the building to tell big brother about his awesomeness. Andrew was too cute and played along, telling Blake how tough it is to get one of those.

“Great job, Blakers!”

“Thank you, brother!”

It’s so nice when they get along.

As it always is, the area around TSM was crazy crowded. We hurried out of the area and finally came upon something we’d be dying to check out. Amazingly, it was even open! Up until then, it seemed that we never remembered the Backlot Tour until it was closed. Oops! There was quite a long line, but this couldn’t be skipped. John parked the stroller and we joined the mess.

As we walked up, John called to a man nearby. “How ya doin, Bob?” or something like that. The man walked over and I saw it was a CM. He and my husband had a nice chat for a bit, leaving me completely confused.

“Who was that?” I assumed he must’ve known this guy. They talked like old friends!

“Not a clue,” came the reply.

Ugh. I don’t like when he does that. I suppose the CM did have that “Where do I know you from?” look on his face while they talked. We’d run into the guy twice more and each time he’d come up to talk, but I could tell he was always trying to place us. Sorry, Bob! My husband is nuts.

As I said, the wait was long. Sooo, sooo, soooo long. The fact that much of this is moving from one waiting spot to wait in another didn’t make it the most enjoyable thing for the boys. I prepared to join the list of Disney brats I kept hearing about. Thankfully, I only heard one complaint from Andrew and it was simply that he couldn’t see well enough and wanted picked up. Thank you, boys. Those Sci-Fi and Teppan Edo couples have no idea how nervous they had me!

I'm on a roll.. Next post!

 

[jc040404]

We enjoyed checking out all of the props. It was neat trying to place the things we saw. (These could be out of order. I don’t really remember every detail of this and I’m working with two cameras!)

A tram ride! This was getting exciting!

Nifty stuff..

The scary part of the ride was.. Well, scary! I really worried we were going to be soaked, but I didn’t remember anyone ever walking DHS in wet clothes. I think I should’ve looked up a video before this. The boys weren’t worried at all and thought it was awesome!

Anyone else always compelled to take pictures that relate to the year of your birth? I didn’t know ET was from 1982. Maybe that’s why I don’t remember actually seeing that movie!

Awesome timing was on our side once again when the ride was over. We walked out to see that the line for the Monsters Inc characters was just starting to form. Yay! We joined without even discussing it.

The boys were super excited to collect these autographs. Then we learned they don’t sign. Oh well! They still wanted to stick around to see someone new!

The wait here was one of my favorites. John and I loved reading the boards as we neared the characters. They are too funny!

I need one of these for those “well behaved” boys of mine! Haha!!

Loved it!

I found it funny that we both complained the wait wasn’t nearly long enough. I wanted to read them all! The boys raced up to meet their new friends, but both stopped short of the usual hugs. Blake froze in front of Mike, staring up in fear.

“You only have one eye!”

Mike bounced around and we all laughed. Yes, Blakers, he only has one eye. I think it might’ve helped if the boys had seen their movie. The fear disappeared quickly and they got together for a picture. Blake even wanted to hug him!

This day was packed with characters!

Next Up!! Lights, Motors, “Boy” stuff! Can’t we see Beauty & the Beast instead??

 

[IheartDDuck]

Holy updates Batman!

Okay, you're not the only one that thinks your boys are adorable all the time. They look so cute in their ponchos!

Sorry that you missed out on your Tangled plans. Although it appears that the day turned out well even though it didn't start as planned.

I could not stop laughing at the interaction between Blake and Mike Wazowski. "He only has one eye!" Classic. Absolutely classic. Kids are awesome at stating the obvious.

 

[CAStevens218]

Ohhh, so many updates!!! It must have been so much fun for the boys to see so many characters so easily! I'll have to keep that in mind if we ever have a rainy morning...

Those poncho photos are great! And the one of Blake with Mickey is fabulous!! I actually said "Awwwwwww" out loud when I scrolled down and saw it.

The Monster's Inc line looks really cute...I'll have to make a note to check it out if we get a chance.

Its great that the boys are so well behaved when they have to wait or sit down at a restaurant! Very impressive!

Between all this annoying rain and having two sick children, I've had some time on my hands this weekend.

The day was pretty fun, despite missing Rapunzel. We'd get to it eventually!

I loved Blake's comment to Mike. I think of it every time I see that monster on anything now. Kids are awesome!

Ohhh, so many updates!!! It must have been so much fun for the boys to see so many characters so easily! I'll have to keep that in mind if we ever have a rainy morning...

Those poncho photos are great! And the one of Blake with Mickey is fabulous!! I actually said "Awwwwwww" out loud when I scrolled down and saw it.

The Monster's Inc line looks really cute...I'll have to make a note to check it out if we get a chance.

Its great that the boys are so well behaved when they have to wait or sit down at a restaurant! Very impressive!

That building was great in the rain! I can only imagine how long it would've taken to meet them all outside, if it would even be possible in one morning. Loved it!

The Monsters Inc boards were too funny. I still can't get the boys to try that movie though.

Our boys are usually good, but this trip stuck out for all the comments. I know everyonewas being nice and wanted to vent about others, but it really had me worried they were going to jinx us!

I love your updates! Your boys are adorable!
I love how they are both doing Blake's "Mickey" pose in one of the first pictures!

Oh how I love the poncho pictures - too cute!
Tell Blake that Goofy is my favorite and I love his pictures with him!
What great character luck you had that day.
Yup, Mike has only 1 eye, never realized Sully's arms were quite that long...

Blake still remembers him as the one that wouldn't let him go. He's not a fan at all.

Are Sully's arms that long in the movie? Looking at the pics, I kinda think the same.
