Disney Vacay with the Love Bugs (New 6/23 update ~ Chef Mickeys)

[Queenofallthings]

Nice update

You gotta love the fairies...I love how sassy they are! Last summer we waited to see them with my two nieces....fortunately they have seen the Tink movies so they told us who they were....we still have absolutely no clue

Love your SM pics!!!!

 

[laashley]

Such cute pictures. The fairies are a good meet. It's always fun to meet some characters with personality, even if they are a bit sassy! Glad they pulled Levi in on the fun.

What a fun morning! You were able to do a lot of things in such a short period of time. Too bad the wait for the fairies turned out to be longer than expected but at least the fairies interacted well with Lexi and Levi.

First I need to apologize, it has been forever since I was last on the boards and I am now playing major catch up. First, I love the kids hats. I have a feeling that I will also be the mom that wants them to buy the cutest hats that I like rather than large obnoxious ones kids seem to love.

I love your room and window decorations with the lights....so pretty!

I have to agree with the kids, eating in the castle would be amazing. It drove me crazy looking at it all week and not going in. It will definately be something we do next time.

We also got wonderful pictures with the crane. I think we were lucky to get 2 crane free pictures our entire trip.

Great updates! I surprised my girls in May with bkfst in the castle. Love lexi's dress. They were very cute with the fairies. I love how Levi was looking at Vidia. You should rent a Tink movie-they are fun.

Enjoyed the latest update! The looks on Lexi and Levi's faces with the fairies are too funny! Interesting that Lexi thinks she needs to close her eyes on SM, since I have read they have darkened it up even more and you can't see anyway!

Congrats to Brad on getting his braces removed! I know he is happy he has that behind him!

I like your SM pics, they came out so nice. Everyone looks so good in them! I don't know why but everytime I rode SM, my pic came out so unflattering and just plain terrible so I usually wince everytime I see myself. I think it just takes it at a really unflattering angle on me. But you guys look great!

Some ride pics can be down right scary, I'm glad these were not.
At the end of the week we finally figured out where they take the picture at.

Just wanted to check in and say Hi Amy! Hope you had a good Thanksgiving holiday and weekend.

Hey Marv I had a great holiday weekend. I know you did with your big win!

Love that the fairies pulled Levi in! Our first time meeting them, we had no clue who the others were either. I remember being directed to one and going the wrong way. Glad to know someone else hopped in line for characters they didn't know! The newer movies are on Disney Channel lately, if you are really that interested.

And since I've fallen behind.. Your castle breakfast looked wonderful! It was so nice to read something positive about going there. Too often, I've seen nothing but complaints about being rushed and the food being awful. It's kept me from trying it. Glad you had a nice time!

They were so great w/Levi! I see why the line is long, they were a fun bunch of girls.
I will have to check out the Disney Channel for a fairy movie, thanks for the info.
You should definitely try eating at the castle. I didn't feel rushed, but we didn't care to linger either since we were ready to hit the park as soon as we were finished eating.

They were definitely sassy & cute! I hope you didn't have to wait too long . Maybe I just need to look at 'YouTube' for a fairy movie

I usually don't like waiting in lines for character, but after we saw them, I'm glad that we did. I can see why there is a wait for them, they were full of personality!

It's amazing how much you can get done first thing in the morning compared to later in the day.

It's so hard staying caught up on the boards. I'm glad you're back because I'm interested in reading your TR.
With the hats, all I could think about were they were going to be in my pictures forever! I'm bad!
You will definitely need to eat in the castle next time.
Weren't you disappointed at 1st when you saw the crane? I was so disappointed when I looked at the castle for the 1st time with that big crane in the background!

Great updates! I surprised my girls in May with bkfst in the castle. Love lexi's dress. They were very cute with the fairies. I love how Levi was looking at Vidia. You should rent a Tink movie-they are fun.

I bet your girls loved their surprise!
So, Vidia is the fairy's name. I liked her the best & I do love that picture with Levi looking at her. Brad thought the girl dressed up like Vidia was in a bad mood , I had to tell him that it was her character. His even more clueless than me when it comes to the fairies.
We will rent a Tink movie. I'm glad to hear that they are worth watching.

Lexi finally started opening her eyes on SM towards the end of the week & she loved it. She closed her eyes on every rollercoaster. She's a little chicken.
Thanks about Brad. He is very happy to have them off. He had braces when he was a teenager, but he needed them again to correct some alignment. I think it's harder when you're an adult dealing with them. He complained the WHOLE freaking time!

MEN! Hey, wait a minute.......

 

[UGAFan0829]

Hey there!! I'm finally all caught up now! I've been such a slacker lately!!

I'm loving the report, and especially the interaction with the Fairies! I think y'all saw a couple that I'd never seen before! I remember when we saw them, the wait time posted was 30 minutes, but by the time we actually made it in ended up being an hour!

I can't wait for more!

 

[FauntleroyFAN07]

i cant believe your daughter isnt into the tink movies, they seem like they would be right up her alley.

sorry if i missed this discussion somewhere in other comments.

I understand, it's hard to keep up with everyone's TR & get ready for the holidays!
I'm always checking to see if you have new post up, stop being a slacker!
They must not be good at keeping the correct wait times for the fairies.

They only came out a couple of years ago & she never asked to see one.
I'm sure if the Tink movies came out when she was younger we would've had to see them because Lexi loves Tinkerbell & was even Tinkerbell one year for Halloween.

We left MK to head back to our resort that we still have not seen yet for a swim.

Outside of our door, at the end of this hall was the quite pool we never used.

The resort was very pretty & the walk was not bad to the main pool.

The pool was a big hit. Brad played in the water with the kids & I mostly chilled on the lounge chair.

We need to get back to MK for our next ADR. We didn’t eat lunch today because of the big morning brkfst. I brought snacks & food from home, we ate something small in our room to hold us over until dinner.


Con't in next post...

Waiting for the MK bus

We had a little time to get more photopass pics, walk around & I think one ride before our 6:45 reservation at Crystal Palace.

Levi is always trying to catch a bird at the beach & anywhere else. It’s killing him watching these birds. He wants to jump the fence so bad to try to catch one. I don’t know what he plans on doing with the bird if he was able catch one. I’m always secretly wishing the birds will turn on him & chase him.

At Crystal Palace, I try again for our Christmas card picture. I love the view of the castle from Crystal Palace.
Now, I LOVE these pictures, except for the Dale hat!

After I received my Photopass pictures from our trip, I saw that Lexi & Levi had taken some secret pictures to surprise me when I received the pictures.

These three:

I LOVE how they were acting goofy & Lexi’s pic is just too precious!
Lexi & Levi act like this 95% of the time, I'm glad I now have some pictures of the 'real' them, instead of just the 'posed' them!
I LOVED my surprise when I saw it. It was truly the best gift for a mom who's addicted to taking pictures of her kids.
I asked when did they take the pics because I couldn’t remember anytime that we were separated.

They took them when I was checking us in at Crystal Palace. Sneaky little critters!

The walk looks relaxing! We love doing that at OKW.

Wow, you got some good photopass pics! It would be hard to choose a favorite!

How funny the kids took some funny pics too. They really look like they're having a good time.

 

[marvali]

Love the surprise pictures, and the one of Lexi is really great! Being a big fan of Chip and Dale, the Dale hat just tops off those family PP pictures!

 

[jc040404]

Awww!! Lexi's frog pic is tooo cute! I love that they took these while you were checking in. What a sweet surprise!

That spot beside Crystal Palace is one of my most favorite picture spots! I can't wait to hear about this meal, as we've only ever done breakfast there.

Lovin the CBR pics, too! I was so much more impressed with that resort than I thought I'd be. Living in Florida, going to a beach themed resort wasn't high on our list at the time. Those rooms are so cute though! Isn't the pool great? Wish I was there right now!!

 

[mickeystoontown]

The pictures of the CBR are sooooo making me wish I was there right now. A little relaxing in the hammock would be nice. I'm glad that you were able to explore the resort a little and have a nice afternoon swim.

I think the photopass pictures are great even if Levi is wearing his chipmunk hat. And the surprise picture are so cute!

 

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Nice update! I love the CBR pictures and that pool is the best! I hope you got more opportunities to use it!

All of your photopass pictures are so nice!

My boys are constantly chasing after those poor birds. And lizards too. Like you, I'm not sure exactly what they would do if they actually caught something.

Can't wait to hear about CP. We are big CP fans, although we haven't been there in a few years. I think I will put that at the top of my list for next year!

The pictures of the CBR are sooooo making me wish I was there right now.

Me too Lisa!

 

[jenbear123]

Awww! I love Lexi with the frog picture. Too cute! In fact, I think that's the first time I've seen that. Love your dress too by the way. Very nice colour
