From Pop to the Top - Funtastic Adventures in the Summer Sun!

Oh how I love the Lion King show!!!

Have a fabulous Labor Day weekend, all!!

 

[Stasieki]

It sure was a busy night in Nashville, and here in Murfreesboro it was all about the Blue Raiders since the football game was on national TV. They put on a great game, but fell just short.

I love Animal Kingdom days. For us, we slow the pace down a bit and enjoy our surroundings. I may be one of the few, but I prefer Nemo to the Lion King show, but they are both great.

Here are some recent picture (not the best pictures as they came from a camera phone)

Abby and Ellie

Ellie (I may have shared this picture already) - I have more recent ones on my camera I need to download this weekend. She's growing so fast

 

[MagicShell]

I really like the Festival of the Lion King a lot, but I think I like Nemo even better now. Yay for going next month!

 

[tinkgurl]

The FOTLK always gives me goosebumps and chills. Such a good show. I can't wait to show you what Little Guy thought of it.

Loved the pictures leading up to FOTLK. I always get a kick out of the fishing pictures. FOTLK is one of my favorites.

Beautiful girls!

 

[MeMom]

No, probably not, but Charles and I do keep talking about getting away alone our anniversary weekend -- maybe the beach...or we might just stay home and do all those home improvement projects we keep talking about. Traveling sounds better to me, though.

Going somewhere sounds a lot better than staying home and doing house repairs!

Tumble monkeys!!!!!! I love that show. *sigh*

The tunble monkeys are pretty fascinating.

I love FoTLK! It is my number 1 thing to do in AK. We missed it last time so we have to do it this time. Yeah! And I love all of your pics of the characters fishing and hiking. They don't even look familiar to me. I'll have to keep my eyes open a little more in Camp MM.

If you look off the beaten path in Animal Kingdom you will see some cool things.

We are kind of having a fall break for our trip and taking a couple of personal days off.
Our parent/teacher conferences are that week so we work some really long days.
The Friday we leave is a comp day for those extra hours.
Monday and Tuesday will be our personal days.
It's such a short trip we might not make it to all of the parks.

I won't make it to Hollywood Studios this time. Jill and Brooklynn may run over there Saturday or Sunday sometime before Brook's AP expires. She says she wants to ride Tower of Tara again. Bella and I can go do something else. We may go up to the gate with them, just to get pictures and say I went to all the parks, but then I'd have to get a bus to whatever park I was in that day or just back to Pop.

I like looong trips, Wigd!

It's a shame they're breaking up. They're such a great duo.

Great update, Festival of the Lion King is one of my favorite shows! Your pictures from the show came out great.

We were on the back row, so I was zooming in. They're pretty fuzzy. It is an awesome show.

I haven't had the TV on to see any news reports about the Brooks & Dunn concert. I only saw that they were having it. I know traffic had to have been crazy downtown last night.

What a great way to end the evening...Festival of the Lion King!!! What an amazing show! The tumble monkeys are fabulous!!!!!

Have a great Labor Day Weekend MeMom, Jill, and Family!

I guess I'll see the girls when they come back through either Sunday or Monday, depending on what they decide to do in KY. It will make for a happy weekend even to see them a little.

I wonder how many performances a day one tumble monkey does. That could keep a person, or a monkey, in great shape!

FOTLK - my favourite show at WDW!!!

I like them all. I like Nemo and Beauty and the Beast, too.
The music for Lion King is so powerful. They have some awesome singers!

By the way...

We go to Disney NEXT MONTH!!!!!!

I've been spending too much time on Facebook.... I looked for the like button


Stasieki - your girls are beautiful! The second picture is fantastic!

 

[WrightFamily06]

I would have never thought to look at the pattern on the bathroom floor but very pretty !!

I love those statues of the Fab 5 and family hiking, camping & fishing !

Great FOTLK pictures ! We haven't done that show since 07 , I hope we can fit it in on our trip in less than two weeks !!

Happy Labor Day Weekend !!

 

[MomOf2Gals]

cool update. lion king is now on my list of attractions for my trip.

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Hurrah for WDW NEXT MONTH! I have a feeling that the time is just going to fly right by!

FOTLK is another show I haven't seen. I've got lots on my to-do list for this trip!!

And to Brooklyn for her bravery in wanting to go on "Tower of Tara" again. I haven't worked up the nerve for a first ride but I would love to see the theming that everyone talks about in the queue.

 

[disney<333]

Sorry to get so behind! I haven't been able to DIS in about two weeks since school started! Super busy!
Bella is too cute with her baby doll! Great find, MeMom.
I haven't seen FOTLK in so long; I don't even remember it. I can't wait to see it, especially since I'm crazy about the Lion King.
Enjoy your weekend. Do you have off Monday? We have off Monday and Thursday and then the next week is testing.

Thank you (and jillyb) so much - my friend took that second picture with a "good" camera.

 

[Spartangirl]

Great job on your pics from the show....I LOVE FOTLK! It's always a must-do for us! I get chills when I hear the opening bars from the first song!

 

[moparop]

We also love FOTLK! Doug has said it's an absolute must do non negotiable. So, I guess we will be going!

Stasieki- Your girls are just beautiful!! I love the photos!

Oh yes. I love the tumble monkey show......er Festival of the Lion King.

I believe *my* tumble monkey is the way back showing us his best side.

Hopefully I can get my FOLK fix this trip. DS can come with me or go ride Everest.

1 more sleep.

Us, too - on the Lion King show!

You, too - on the Labor Day weekend.

I forgot about the MTSU game.

You have two very beautiful girls! We'll have to get together again at Opry Mills, or if Opry Mills doesn't open by Christmas, maybe we can hook up at Cool Springs.

I really like the Festival of the Lion King a lot, but I think I like Nemo even better now. Yay for going next month!

I do love Nemo, too. Such talent in both shows and colors and music - they're both awesome!

The FOTLK always gives me goosebumps and chills. Such a good show. I can't wait to show you what Little Guy thought of it.

I hoped he loved it!

Loved the pictures leading up to FOTLK. I always get a kick out of the fishing pictures. FOTLK is one of my favorites.

I love it when they tell us we're here on a very special day! Any day I am in Animal Kingdom is a special day.

Beautiful girls!

Yes, they are!

Funny. On Facebook, I am always looking for italics and smiley faces.

I would have never thought to look at the pattern on the bathroom floor but very pretty !!

Happy Labor Day Weekend !!

Less than two weeks is so awesome!!!

I always look at walls, ceiling, and floors in Disney World. You can find some interesting art work.

cool update. lion king is now on my list of attractions for my trip.

You will love it!

Hurrah for WDW NEXT MONTH! I have a feeling that the time is just going to fly right by!

You haven't seen Lion King?

You're going to be there on Saturday and Sunday the 16th and 17th - is that right? Maybe you can ride Tower of Tara with Brooklynn.

Sorry to get so behind! I haven't been able to DIS in about two weeks since school started! Super busy!
Bella is too cute with her baby doll! Great find, MeMom.

Enjoy your weekend. Do you have off Monday? We have off Monday and Thursday and then the next week is testing.

Since school started, we've all been around a lot less!

Yes, we are off on Monday. Our first break.

Thank you (and jillyb) so much - my friend took that second picture with a "good" camera.

You should pack them up and go to Atlanta next weekend. You could go to the zoo, and I hear there is going to be a meeting of DISers.

Great job on your pics from the show....I LOVE FOTLK! It's always a must-do for us! I get chills when I hear the opening bars from the first song!

The music is just awesome. Wouldn't it be cool to be an actor in that show for your job? If you could act and sing, that is...which I cannot.

We also love FOTLK! Doug has said it's an absolute must do non negotiable. So, I guess we will be going!

Stasieki- Your girls are just beautiful!! I love the photos!

Yay for putting Lion King on the agenda!
It's something for the whole family to enjoy, and you get to sit down inside for a while. That's usually a good thing in WDW.

One more!
What time do you leave tomorrow? Are you still gonna fly right over us and not parachute down to join us???

You think your son is gonna notice that you are watching one particular tumble monkey a little too closely?

 

[Poolrat]

One more!
What time do you leave tomorrow? Are you still gonna fly right over us and not parachute down to join us???

I will hopefully be in the air by 10:41am. My flight on the 11th leaves MCO at 4:40 so I will be over Atlanta 5:15 or so? I think I will miss the meet. Since Magical Depress will pick us up areound 1, I guess while everyone is meeting I will be killing time at the airport. trying to cure the boredom of a 16 year old. You know sometimes he still like the toddler he used to be. I guess I will spend time in the food court andall will be good.

You think your son is gonna notice that you are watching one particular tumble monkey a little too closely?

He probably will pass on the whole thing so he can ride Everest over and over again. I guess it will be just me and the tumble monkeys.
And a few hundred other people.

Just for all you Airtran non-fans. haters was too strong of a word
I have been deperately trying to do on-line check ALL DAY. I finally called and asked if there was a problem with the website.
Agent - Um no, the webite is working
Me- Well I am trying to check in and I am having trouble
Agent - Oh the online check in is not working
Me %#$%%%^ ( no not really ) Well is there another solution?
Agent- You can check in at the gate.
Me-in my best whine- But I don't want to check in at the gate, I want to do it online.
Agent -But the online check in is down.
Me- Is someone working on this? Do we have an estimate of maybe when it will be up?
Agent - They are working on it but I don't know when it will be up.


GRRRRR I am not fond of these kinks in my plans.
that and I am a bit spoiled.
