Family, Friends, & Celebrities- A MAGICAL Birthday TR!!! *UPDATE*8/27! Final thoughts

[my2disneyboys]

Such great pics!! I love the one of all of you! A lost kid!!??

 

[that's nice]

I'm amazed at how good you were feeling! Esp. after being King of Monopoly! Raking in all that cash can really knock a guy out.

I should of put on the Burger King crown that Branda had!!!

What a special cool treat to see the balloons in the morning. Just you and your girl!

It was very peaceful to see them just floating by. They just kept on coming too. Really cool!

Awesome that you all fit in the truck! Saving $14 a day X 6 or so days = is like $80 or something!! To save that kind of dough, I'd have strapped myself with a bungee to the roof.

That was almost an option... We were wondering what wife to strap on there!!! (this is a joke incase a certain someone happens to read this)

Never seen a Disney Channel ANYTHING, so I think the Playhouse Disney show would be all lost on us. Looks fun for those who have though.
But what is with rude woman?? Some people...

You know.. the show is really cute. Would I put it on the top of your list. NO. But if you accomplished everything you wanted in DHS, it is fun to watch.

The woman- I don't know. It was like she was trying to bash into people. And poor Victoria is a peanut!

Yeah, bathroom time...

I think it's a contagious condition. But better to do a mass evacuation, than waste a zillion hours doing the same gig one after the other.

So true!!!!!!

One last comment...

See that lady on the tram behind Branda and Dave? Is she practicing her new robot moves for AI or something?? What a crack up!

Maybe she is Jordan's long lost sister or cousin!!!!!

Freshman year of college, my dorm-mate came stumbling in at 2:30 on morning, making a holy rukus trying to crawl up into his lofted bed. He's not in there 3 seconds, when jumps out, runs to the bubbler (or water fountain, for those of you outside of Wisconsin) and gets a drink. He comes back in and makes sure to wake me up (ummm...I already was) and tell me he forgot to get a drink of water to keep his brain wet while he slept.
That night I almost tested the old urban legend that you get straight A's if your roommate dies.

LOL I don't think that is a legend. What were you gonna do... chuck him out the window or strangle him?

Veteran move right there, especially for a parent with only one child.

These are the parenting moves that we are going to have to learn in the future!

What was Dave & Branda's first reactions to the "Disney Experience"? We're taking some first timers in December, and I can't wait!
Great update!

So far so good! We were only in there for 1 1/2 hours. Hoping not to burn them out the first 1/2 of the day!

Nice update!

Thanks!!!!

BTW, you're running out of room for your tickers!!!

Such great pics!! I love the one of all of you! A lost kid!!??

Thanks!!!!!

Hopefully I can update tonight... don't want to keep people hanging on the lost kid comment for too long.

 

[PrincessCaitlin]

I'm in!

A little bit late for the party but oh well

Great first Disney day!

Can't wait to see who the celebrity is!

 

[KatMark]

Great update! Love the photo with everyone with Pluto and Goofy (Pluto is one of my favorites and we rarely see him for a photo op any more). We've never done the Playhouse Disney show...I'm not even sure it was there when our boys were young. Can't wait for the next installment.

(And Markie is doing okay...he's in a lot of pain, but he has pain pills; he was sound asleep snoring when I left for work this morning).

 

[onelilspark]

You do know there's no such thing as a lost kid at Disney right? Only lost parents.

 

[Believeinfairytales]

AWESOME update! Everyone looks so happy to be in Disney! Can't wait to hear all about your adventures. Love all the photopass pics, too, by the way. I'm (super excited) to hear more!

 

[FreezinRafiki]

LOL I don't think that is a legend. What were you gonna do... chuck him out the window or strangle him?

Why not both? We were only on the third floor, so the fall would have hurt, but he probably would have lived. Um... I think I've said too much.

These are the parenting moves that we are going to have to learn in the future!

One kid is easy. You and Mel can play a zone defense. When you have two, you're forced to play man-to-man.

Hopefully I can update tonight... don't want to keep people hanging on the lost kid comment for too long.

When I saw you the next day, neither you nor Dave seemed to upset. So you either found the child or you're pretty callous bas****s!

 

[yinyanggirls]

Not a bad way to start the day, if you HAD to be up at 6:30.

 

[All7OfUs]

You used a park ticket for 1 1/2 HOURS!!???!!! You're joking right??

 

[KatMark]

That was almost an option... We were wondering what wife to strap on there!!! (this is a joke incase a certain someone happens to read this)

If we don't see another update in the near future, we will certainly know why!!!

 

[All7OfUs]

If we don't see another update in the near future, we will certainly know why!!!

Shouldn't be a problem--- she knows he has a whip.

 

[KatMark]

Shouldn't be a problem--- she knows he has a whip.

 

[eandesmom]

What a fun and impressively fast morning! Great photopass pics and I love the hot air balloons!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[tinkgurl]

Yay! DISNEY!!!!

We saw those hot air balloons almost every day! So cool!

Wow, you got some good photopass pics, Tim! Plus, the sunglasses help in case anyone blinks!

I can't wait to do Playhouse Disney with the little guy. So everyone sits on the floor? Can people stand in the back and lean against the back wall? That's what grandma and grandpa were thinking of doing so they can still be part of the fun with us.

A lost kid?!?!?!?! C'mon...don't leave us hanging!

 

[dvczerfs]

nice pics tim, looks like you guys had a great time. the hat looks like it fits you in the one pic!! i all ways hit the bathroom alot while in the park, never know when there can be a ride breakdown!! last october we sat on the people mover in the mk for 20 min. till we were able to walk off.

 

[that's nice]

I'm in!

A little bit late for the party but oh well

Great first Disney day!

Can't wait to see who the celebrity is!

to my TR!!!!!!!!!

You came just in time for the good stuff!!

There could of been more than one celebrity!

Great update! Love the photo with everyone with Pluto and Goofy (Pluto is one of my favorites and we rarely see him for a photo op any more). We've never done the Playhouse Disney show...I'm not even sure it was there when our boys were young. Can't wait for the next installment.

I love Pluto too!!! Juliana always tells me that Pluto is my favorite, and I agree with her.

Hope to have another update tomorrow (at some point).

(And Markie is doing okay...he's in a lot of pain, but he has pain pills; he was sound asleep snoring when I left for work this morning).

Well the pills should help him I hope you are enjoying the nice weather!!!!

You do know there's no such thing as a lost kid at Disney right? Only lost parents.

I've never heard that one B4! That is a good one!

AWESOME update! Everyone looks so happy to be in Disney! Can't wait to hear all about your adventures. Love all the photopass pics, too, by the way. I'm (super excited) to hear more!

We were so excited to be there!

The photopass pics, for the most part, came out great! Of course you'll see more!

Why not both? We were only on the third floor, so the fall would have hurt, but he probably would have lived. Um... I think I've said too much.

Might have to keep this on the DL.

One kid is easy. You and Mel can play a zone defense. When you have two, you're forced to play man-to-man.

Many of our friends have more than one and we see what they go through. I think we could handle 2 kids....

When I saw you the next day, neither you nor Dave seemed to upset. So you either found the child or you're pretty callous bas****s!

Couldn't you see the joy on our face? Not only did we lose the kids, we lost the wives too!

 

[that's nice]

Not a bad way to start the day, if you HAD to be up at 6:30.

I think the time change has helped her.. for the last 2 weeks she has been getting up around 7:45. I don't think her internal clock has corrected itself yet!

The balloons were really cool. We couldn't believe how many there were.

You used a park ticket for 1 1/2 HOURS!!???!!! You're joking right??

I wouldn't pull an April Fools joke like that. Do you know anyone that would do that????

If we don't see another update in the near future, we will certainly know why!!!

Shouldn't be a problem--- she knows he has a whip.

Here we go again. I'm getting picked on!!!!!

It is always you two too!!!!

What a fun and impressively fast morning! Great photopass pics and I love the hot air balloons!!!!!!!!!!!

I think once you step foot on Disney property the time goes faster! The morning was flying by!

The morning was so calm with a blue sky.. I wish i was in one of those balloons.

Yay! DISNEY!!!!

We saw those hot air balloons almost every day! So cool!

Really? Juliana and I looked every morning and I think we only saw a couple one other day.

Wow, you got some good photopass pics, Tim! Plus, the sunglasses help in case anyone blinks!

It was so bright, we needed the glasses. It was a beautiful morning!

I can't wait to do Playhouse Disney with the little guy. So everyone sits on the floor? Can people stand in the back and lean against the back wall? That's what grandma and grandpa were thinking of doing so they can still be part of the fun with us.

You have to sit on the floor for PHD. I know people do stand in the back if they cannot sit. There are parts where they encourage the kids to get up and dance. It is really a cute show.

A lost kid?!?!?!?! C'mon...don't leave us hanging!

I gotta... hopefully I'll have time to explain tomorrow.

nice pics tim, looks like you guys had a great time. the hat looks like it fits you in the one pic!! i all ways hit the bathroom alot while in the park, never know when there can be a ride breakdown!! last october we sat on the people mover in the mk for 20 min. till we were able to walk off.

Imagine walking around with that hat on your head???

We were on a ride that had a mini breakdown during the week. We had to wait for it to restart for about 10 minutes or so.

 

[All7OfUs]

It IS always Kat and I.... Why is that??


NO, have no idea who would pull such shenanigans on a thread?? Who me?!!

 

[jordanyosh]

Nice update!

So my line about get strollers situated, diaper bags situated, etc...really rang true with you huh...

72 degrees! PERFECT touring weather.

Playhouse Disney...I've outgrown that attraction

 

[carissanboys]

Drinking lots of water is key.

What a site to see early in the morning! Back in my hometown in Maine, they host a balloon festival every year. It is so cool to see them in the early morning and right before sunset.

Sounds like things are going well so far, but now you have me worried with a "lost kid."
