Every Day's a Holiday (3 updates 12/7 page 10)

I wish that they had roped the Jungle Cruise boats like that when Mama was trying to board. It would have helped immensely.

Speaking of Jungle Cruise, too bad that you didn't have a good skipper. In my opinion, the skipper really can make or break a cruise.

I'm not sure if I like those purses or not. Do I? Don't I? Kinda sorta? Maybe?

JJ was quite the sport for riding Pirates of the Caribbean!
 
Fantastic that JJ rode POTC!! :cool1: Funny story about his sword!
 
We used the DAS last week and I have to say, I don't hate it .. it just takes getting used to. We got into the habit of getting a return time and then either getting a snack or riding something with no wait time. Jayden well with this and was able to ride pretty much everything he wanted to.
The boys learned how to play Sorcerer and are now anxious to go back to play again !

It does take some getting use to. And depending on the weather for us, it can really be a pain. For example, on a hot day, we have to find something indoors to occupy the time. It was great last week in the cooler weather!! There were so many other things to do to pass the time away. He loved knowing he could play Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom as long as he wanted!!

I'm glad they like the game too. It's fun. Did you do the new interactive Pirate Adventure game? That is really cool. The special effects are suprising. Don't read spoilers if you haven't done it!
 

a little late to the holiday party....needed to finish my decorating today before I could get on the computer :thumbsup2

we are so excited to experience all the holiday events and see all the decorations!

cute purses, not my style though!
oh mickey popcorn bucket, we have the snowman mickey from DLR 2 years ago.
great you know about the special boat for jungle cruise, so much safer for you all!
happy JJ got to spend a little time with his friend, so brave of him to ride POTC pixiedust:

will you be home Monday or Tuesday? wanted to be able to talk to you about our plans if you are able, if not just text me if that works better!

can finally say.....SEE YOU NEXT WEEK :banana:

:welcome: Glad you are here!!

You are going to love Christmas time at Disney!

The hand bags aren't my style either, but something about the woven seatbelt bag grabs me.

I think it was last Monday they had both the Christmas and the HM Mickey popcorn buckets at the Popcorn stand near Liberty Tavern.

I'm glad we were able to work out arrangements around my company and your meets. :)

I'm shocked JJ rode POTC. The last time he did was a mess. He wanted to ride it so badly, but was so stinking scared. A cm gave him a flashlight and told him to shine it at his shoes while on the ride. But the whole time we were riding there were announcements to put it away. He was a nervous wreck til we got off. But this time there were no tears. He clung to me for dear life, but at the end he said he liked it. However, he didn't want to ride again when we went on the 11th.
 
Love the purses! I am not sure why because its is not my normal style but I love the bowling bag looking one.

I didn't like the bowler at first at all. But it's growing on me. I doubt I'll buy one. Though I can't give a definite no on the animal print that's woven. But then I'd have to go out and buy the right color clothes to wear while carrying it. Ok, I'll forget it, lol.

I giggled at the comment on having to buy clothes to match the purse. I'm a matchy/matchy girl to and am worried about the magic bands not matching my other jewelry.
 
Sorry not a fan of the purses. Even though I do like the red of the one.

Ahh was hoping to hear better things about Jingle Cruise but maybe now I won't feel as bad about missing it this year. Glad your friends enjoyed it though!!

Yeah JJ!!! So brave for riding POTC!!!


I'm sure we'll try it again. It all depends on the skipper, I think.

We were proud of him.

IF Mama ever comes back to WDW, you make sure you ask about the rope boat before you get in line. It may add wait time, but it would be much safer for her.

I know. We'll try it again. Maybe another skipper will make the difference?

I know what you mean. They are growing on me. At first, I didn't like them at all. But now I'm becoming interested in that woven one.

I don't think he'll want to ride it any time soon, but maybe another time when he really wants to be with his friend.

Lol, isn't that sad. Then you better get yourself a neutral colored band. :rotfl2: Maybe they'll come out with a denim or tan one in the future?

I'd probably make do with a tan one 'cause like I always say "Everything goes with khaki!"

you know how excited we are to get there and that we are getting a couple days with you guys!

weird the CM gave him a flashlight when lights aren't allowed :confused3

maybe JJ will be brave again when we are there :thumbsup2

forgot to ask, how did the dentist go?

Yeah I'd have to agree with you. Was just hoping to hear it was terrible since I won't be going this holiday season but it's ok it's all for a great reason!!!

I'll be willing to bet that going this time of year will win you over, compared to going in Oct.

I know. At first we thought it was very kind and considerate, but then the announcements...

He might be. He might want to show Megan he can be brave.

The dentist for JJ went well. The dentist for me, well...here I am at 5:40am because I woke up with my teeth annoying me. He thinks it's trauma from the injury and I go back in a couple weeks. If it still hurts then it looks like root canal. But it does seem to be doing better every day and that's a very good sign. It hurts this morning because I was clenching my teeth in my sleep. That's not going to help with healing.

June will fly here!
 
This weekend is the big day for JJ. This is a picture from dress rehearsal last night. He is in a special needs theatre troupe.

 
I knew JJ's DAS was soon to expire. I pulled out the card from my backpack and saw it had already expired. Here we had used it for almost 3 weeks. So when we arrived at the MK we stopped at Guest Services outside the park for a renewal of it.

There were very few people in line. Our wait was less than five minutes. In no time, another picture was taken a new card given and we were on our way into the park.

What are the odds? I knew from facebook that Moodyzblu was at Disney. We were walking by Starbucks and I spotted a child that looked like Jayden, but I just wasn't sure. I was going to get out my phone and send a fb message to Michelle. When I heard a voice calling, "Michelle." What can I say we both have fantastic names. Sure enough it was Michelle and her boys!


The boys met for the first time and you would have thought they knew each other all their lives. They made up some type of Jedi game and played together.


They were to meet a friend at 6pm. The boys played for a few minutes then we went on our way.





Picture of the construction





Our evening ended with watching the water pageant from the ferry.







 

Running out the door, but GREAT PICS! JJ looks adorable, theater group is fabulous (what a MOM to do all that costuming).

Fun to run into Michelle and boys and JJ is styling! :goodvibes

Have a great day! Thanks. I know, that mom is incredible doing all the costuming and props.

It was fun running into them. I would have kept on walking and sent a message had she not said anything to see if that was them.
