This is the bedspread from the DLH. This is why I asked about the Mickeys.

I did not say anything. But I'm sure that other woman did. On Sunday night there was a supervisor there the whole time. All cm were on their toes and I was acknowledged as soon as I got to the counter at each stand.

Would you believe we didn't crawl into any hammocks this time. In March, Anakin tried out every one. There are hammocks at the Cabanas too, but I don't remember how many. We didn't walk by them this trip.

Maybe the resizing happens AFTER I click to order the CD? Because then I guess it prompts me for which pictures.

DUH! I usually write it in my calendar, and didn't this time. We are at Pop in Nov.

Pretty. Love the throw pillow and the Duffy too!

Next up, the CAMPFIRE!!!

Years ago when we stayed at POR, Anakin was an infant or toddler, they had just started the campfire and singalong. They had smores kits for sale, so I was expecting something like this here. Much to our surprise, the marshmellows were COMPLEMENTARY!! They used dowel rods as the sticks. They saved the used rods to use as kindling for the next night's campfire.

He looks soooooo cute roasting his marshmallow!!! Did he like the marshmallow? Loved the Hammocks!! I woulda soooo been in there!! Sorry to hear about Pepper Market, I hate it when CM's are talking, and not working!! We see that at some rides, and we're like, HEY, no goofing off!! When people goof off, that's when mistakes or injury happens!!

Most were working, but they didn't acknowledge our presence. But as soon as another cm walked by them, they acknowledged them. It wasn't good customer service.

He loved roasting them more than he enjoyed eating them. He prefers them uncooked. I got the burnt ones, because he didn't like crunchy marshmellows, lol.

Next up was the Jaguar slide. I didn't get any pictures until the last day. Anakin loved the water slide. We swam until the movie was ready to start.

The movie screen was a giant blow up screen. It took several cm to set it up. It was anchored by ropes and tied to heavy objects.

Before the movie, a cm would introduce it by reading about the movie and pointing out interesting facts about the making of the movie. Once it started, most people migrated to the steps to sit.

They have been doing movie nights at POFQ as well, in the courtyard, not by the pool. I think I read they are doing it at POR too. Also saw there is a campfire there as well. For summer, it's been every evening. Not sure if colder weather will change things up?

I know! I can remember some days at the F&W Festival just dripping sweat. At any rate, it has to be better than what it is now in the morning and evenings!!

Saving this spot for photopass pics

 

[bouncycat]

Can't WAIT to see photopass pics!!! October....man, that's hit or miss with weather!! Sometimes hot, sometimes not. LOL Chris is gonna be gone all of October, and I told him even if I have cancer, he's NOT cancelling his orders to school. I got plenty of people here to help me, and he needs this school to make Senior Chief. Well, to take the test to advance. This is all he has left, and I'm not gonna be the reason he can't take the test!!!

 

[lovethattink]

It'll all work out, one way or the other. Wish I was closer to you.

We had originally hoped to go to the MK for EMH on Friday night. But on Thursday that plan changed. Anakin needed a hair cut. My plan on Thursday was swim lessons, occupational therapy, meet Grumpy and Goofy for lunch, stop at AAA to buy the AP for Grumpy, stop at Staples to get the stroller id plaque laminated, then the hair cut.

We made it to lunch with no problems! After lunch, Anakin was done. I had to use the Convaid Cruiser at AAA to keep him with me. At Staples, I didn't use the stroller, and he got out of my sight three times. I knew there was no way he could sit through the hair cut.

Thursday night, I called Disney Dining Reservations and made an appointment for the Harmony Barber Shop. 9:30am was our reservation. EMH til 1am was out of the question!!

We woke up early to get to the MK near opening. Grumpy was too grumpy to go with us. We told him he had to meet us there by 12:30pm. Afterall, we'd like to get our room made up for the day at some point.

There were quite a bit of people in the barber shop. The person who made our resie said to get there 15 minutes ahead of time and let them know we have an appointment. I asked Michal if it would be possible to have him cut Anakin's hair. He said he would. He did another child before Anakin. This child screamed at times and cried. Anakin held his ears, then cowered on the window seat.

It's his turn!

One of the street performers came into the Barber shop. He entertained us all for a bit about his amazement with the boutique that makes hair grow unlike this shop that makes hair shorter.

Michal consulted with him about gel or no gel. He wanted pixie dust, but didn't want goo. Michal promised him that he could make pixie dust stick with just hair spray. That hair spray is clear but feels crunchy not gooey. They agreed with this.

Thanks Girl!! I hope I have news for everyone on Saturday. Either way. I'm prepared, a friend who owns a pizza place has already recommended an Oncologist, and possibly a surgeon. So I'm prepared for the worst, and hoping for the best!! I won't give up Disney, not at all, so no worries there. But, all this negative is for nothing, right?? It's alright!! LOL

 

[bouncycat]

You posted the barber pics while I was replying. That's funny!!!!

He's SOOOO cute with the pixie dust!!! That sucks that the one kid was loud, that makes things hard!!
