Disney Gives Us the Warm Fuzzies - Take Two. TRIP REPORT HAS BEGUN! 1/20 Pg. 92

Love your Christmas update! Although must say I'm having a hard time believing it is Christmastime already!

I notice a difference in both of you in the pics. Way to go!!!
 
Great update! Glad you found the perfect tree! The stockings are adorable. Great pics, you guys are looking awesome!
 
I love your tree LL. I like your stockings. They are really cute. You are looking really good. I agree that men always seem to look like they lose more weight faster then women (well that is how it is in my house too).
 
The tree--can it be love at first sight! It's a great tree. Perfect size IMO.

You are looking great!
 

You know, I can totally see the difference in your photos, for what it's worth. You're looking fantastic, hon! :goodvibes

I love the picture of Ruby under the tree. That is a cat who loves her some Christmas! And your decorations are just beautiful.
 
You and Marc are both looking fantastic, LL!

Your tree is beautiful, and I love all the Disney touches!!!

Hurray for getting your own gingerbread house next Saturday! I love that your mom does that every year.
 
Y'all look incredible! It makes me anxious to have June come & have my surgery!

Your tree is adorable. You & Marc have begun an ornament collection that will give you memories for years to come. I loved seeing what you've gotten so far.
 
WOOT!!!! Love your Christmas decorations! I will be putting my up next week so I will have to do an update on my decorations!!! I love your tree and the stockings!!!! Very Very nice!!!!

Both you and Marc are looking fantastic and boy you can see the changes!! Congrats to both of you!!!
Yes, you will need to do an update with all of your decorations too!!


Leslie, you tree is perfect! Is it a fir?
I see that Ruby likes it, how about Sully? or is that ey?
Your babies first is adorable! I'm glad Marc was able to repair it for you.

I can see progress in both of you in those pictures!
How exciting!

I might have to post a picture of my tree now.....
Yes, I believe it is a Fir of some kind. Sully doesn't really go around it. I don't think Ruby remembers the real tree we had two years ago when she was just a kitten so she is very curious. But she mainly just sits under it and looks up into the branches. :rotfl2:

Love your Christmas update! Although must say I'm having a hard time believing it is Christmastime already!

I notice a difference in both of you in the pics. Way to go!!!
I love Christmas, I really do. I get very into it right after Thanksgiving. Thanks on noticing the difference. I've had a rough week so I've been doubting myself.

Great update! Glad you found the perfect tree! The stockings are adorable. Great pics, you guys are looking awesome!
Thank you! I love the stockings. I want to have our names embroidered on them.

The tree--can it be love at first sight! It's a great tree. Perfect size IMO.

You are looking great!
I really love the size too. I am not a fan of gigantic trees. Marc was teasing me yesterday because I like the misfit trees, I fear that no one else will pick them so I want them. He wanted the one we got though and I have to say it is perfect.

I love the picture of Ruby under the tree. That is a cat who loves her some Christmas! And your decorations are just beautiful.
Thank you so much! She is loving the tree so far. I just fear that she will try to climb it. We used fishing line two years ago to anchor the tree to the wall but Marc doesn't think we need too. I told him he better glue any ornaments back together that break! :rotfl2:

You and Marc are both looking fantastic, LL!

Your tree is beautiful, and I love all the Disney touches!!!

Hurray for getting your own gingerbread house next Saturday! I love that your mom does that every year.
Thanks, I need my Disney touches. They make me happy.

I am so excited for cookie day. I'm like a little kid waiting to decorate her gingerbread house. :lmao:


Y'all look incredible! It makes me anxious to have June come & have my surgery!

Your tree is adorable. You & Marc have begun an ornament collection that will give you memories for years to come. I loved seeing what you've gotten so far.
Oh, your surgery is going to be the best thing you have ever done for yourself. Trust me! I am so happy that I did mine.

I love our ornaments. When I put them on the tree I try to remember how we got them, most of them I do too. Some little ones I've picked up at Walmart and such don't have that exciting of stories. :rotfl:
 
You and Marc are looking so awesome!!:goodvibes
Your tree is super cute. I love your Disney stockings! We didn't get our tree up today. I am hoping to do it this week.
 
Hey LL! I have just read your post today, too cute! I have to get caught up on several pages of funny chit chat I know, so I will do that too, but in the meantime, such a cute tree! And ornaments! And I am glad you liked the stockings! They are cute, aren't they??!!

You and Marc look great! :thumbsup2

Now I can go back and read more about your trip to come, and vera bags!!! :surfweb:
 
You are Marc are looking great! ::yes:::thumbsup2
Love your tree! It is the perfect size and is decorated beautifully!
I do a lot on the outside of my house..not so much on the inside :confused3 Ziggy doesn't like change :laughing: I have a 6 foot and 4 foot lighted palm tree and deer etc... My Florida touch ;)I found a lighted pink flamingo in Target but that might be pushing it!
Funny story...a few years ago I sold a car to a family that apparently lived around the corner from me...after looking at their drivers licenses I told them I lived on the same street...She asked "you don't live near that house that puts the palm trees out for Christmas do you?" :laughing: I just chuckled and said it was my house :rotfl2:

I love the Christmas decorations. It looks so warm and cheery.
Thanks. It really does. I was so happy to come home to them last night after work. :goodvibes

Your decorations sound awesome! Sully kitty doesn't like change either, he starts meowing like crazy but I think this year he was more interested in the smell of the Christmas tree and of course trying to escape out the door when we were bringing it in. :rotfl2:
 
Lookin' good, girls and boys! :goodvibes
Keep it up!

I'm loving all the Christmas decorations, and I'm pretty doggone excited about a cookie party that I'm not even going to be at, too. :laughing: Pictures of that will surely continue to get us in the Christmas spirit. :dance3:
I started playing Christmas music very softly in the background for the students yesterday as they did their morning work. They were so cute singing along.

I love the cookie party! It's going to be so much fun. I'm so excited that I get to decorate my own house. Usually I just sit there watching everyone else have fun. :laughing:

I've been listening to Christmas music too. In fact, MeMom...have you seen the new Disney Princess Christmas album? It's so adorable. I bet your girls would love it! It has the Princesses singing carols. Ariel sings two island themed songs, Pocahontas sings Silver & Gold, Mulan sings Holly & Ivy, and then there are some other ones too. My very favorite is the 12 Days of Christmas though sung by all of the Princesses!
 
Nice tree. Love the pics of Ruby with it too. Reminds me of my family's cat. As soon as the tree up than the she wants to get under it.

You truly do love me...I have been DYING to eat here since January!!! Thank You!!!

I am so thrilled that we will be able to partake in evening EMH’s at Magic Kingdom. I highly doubt we will stay until 1AM but it's a nice thought. Well I have faith in us...I think we can make it, we are definitely going to stay later than we did in May!!! I think we can do it!!!!!Yes, but we have plans for very early in the morning the next day. :rotfl2:

I will absolutely eat some of a cream cheese pretzel, I don’t care if I’m only able to take two bites of it. I will indulge in the pretzel yumminess once again. We can always get one and split it!!!! That way none of the yummy goodness goes to waste LOL!!!Oh I plan to share the pretzel but again, I might only be able to have two bites. :rotfl2: I’ve also really been craving Casey’s corn dog nuggets. I haven’t had a hot dog since my surgery so I need to try that out at home to make sure it agrees with me before the trip. I have found one thing that doesn’t agree with me since surgery and that is Pork. I can eat pork that is shredded but not something like a pork chop. It’s weird. I’m a little nervous about eating on vacation. Heck, I still get a little nervous when I just go out to a restaurant. I just have to remember to chew really well and eat slowly. Jen, you will have to help remind me. Okey dokey...and you have to remind me to drink lots of water LOL!!!!!! NO SODA!! I can't have soda either so that will be easy! I refuse to make myself sick in Disney! The plus side is that the sick feeling usually doesn’t last too long, it’s just very inconvenient. I agree no being sick at Disney!!! That is no fun!!!

I think our attraction list is reasonable to accomplish. I totally agree...we can do it all LOL!! You know what we forgot? Mickey & Minnie's houses! I have never been in them and I want too before they are gone! I just can’t wait to spend a day in Magic Kingdom, it truly is my happy place.

I’m a little nervous about riding Space Mountain. The last time I was on it was in 2003. I’m going to have to find some reviews of the refurb. If you need to hold my hand I will let you LOL!!!!!! I probably will! :rotfl:

I would really like to stop over at Grand Floridian and the Polynesian. I love the feel of the Poly and I have never been over to GF. NEVER BEEN TO THE GF...well we definitely need to remedy that!!! Poly is my dream monorail resort, I would love to stay there some day!!! I’d really like to get pictures of both of them but if we don’t have time it can be easily cut.

Before Jen realized she could join me, I had made a lunch ADR at Liberty Tree Tavern. The first thing I thought of when she said she could come was that I had to get a dinner ADR at The Plaza. Jen is DYING to try it there and I wanted to make that happen for her. Awwwww...did I mention how much I love ya!!!! :hug: You have no idea (okay maybe you do!) how much I'm looking forward to eating here!!!! I am very very anxious to eat there YAY!!!

As a side note, I was able to get every single ADR we tried for except for one. Any guesses? Hmmmmm...I think I might know LOL :rolleyes1

Mom and I were the same way. We had our share of "Charlie Brown" Christmas trees. :rotfl:
 
LL,

Your plans for your MK day look good. I, too, can't believe you haven't been to the GF before. The restrooms even have nicer toilet paper.:thumbsup2

I think the key to making it to the end of the EMH at MK is taking a break back at Pop which I see you have scheduled. I know it's hard to lie down and take a nap, but try. (Do i sound like a parent?)

My friend, Kim, who I went to WDW with in 08, had similar surgery. There were definitely foods she couldn't eat and greasy food in general wasn't good. She got full faster, but we still managed to eat at great restaurants and it really didn't seem to affect her all that much. Sharing food and snacks is a great idea.
 
Nice tree. Love the pics of Ruby with it too. Reminds me of my family's cat. As soon as the tree up than the she wants to get under it.
Ruby was a little devil last night. She knocked off four ornaments and one of them has a missing hook. I'm a little concerned as Ruby likes to eat paperclips. :rolleyes:

Mom and I were the same way. We had our share of "Charlie Brown" Christmas trees. :rotfl:
Yes, I used to name them too. I lost count of how many Linus trees we had. :rotfl:

Yes, you do sound like a parent. :rotfl2: Usually I can nap pretty easily so I don't think it will be too big of a problem. I just worry about waking up the next morning. :rotfl2:

I think the key to me not getting sick will be to eat small meals/snacks a little more frequently then I do normally at home. :thumbsup2
