I think I could go broke just on the pins alone! LOL There are some really cute ones!

I just had Jon buy me that red mickey bowl withe ears when we were at Target last week. It is for Christmas though! Not sure why I needed it but I did! :lmao:

Since it's just red and has no Christmas pictures on it, it can be used year 'round, so that piece was a given. :thumbsup2



Yep... I have a Target list, and now those items on are the list. Too cute!

Target sales skyrocket.
News at 11. :laughing:




:rotfl2:Oh my how funny it is that us disers see the holiday mickey stuff at target and need to go there immediately. I say us, because I will be there tomorrow just as soon as I drop the kids off at school!:rotfl2:

Really, there wasn't that much there, so I grabbed while the grabbing was good. ::yes::




I really wish you hadn't shown those things from Target!! I was being so good today too!

I'm telling you, it was all God. I felt the spirit move within me to go get paper plates, and 'Wham!', there were those glimmering, shimmering, carouseling (melamine) Mickey Christmas plates! :laughing: It was divine intervention!



Are they on sale at least?!! (I already have that red bowl, only it's in black)

Unfortunately, no, but I got them with the hopes that they might go on sale later, and then if it is worth it, I can always take them back and re-buy. I was afraid to wait. There were only five kid cups, two more bowls, maybe a dozen assorted plates (some in Mickey head shapes), maybe three or four more trays, and I got the last bowl and next to last chip & dip tray
 
I fought the pin craze for quite a while, but I really like them now. When I pin up something on my corkboard with Splash Mountain or Tiki Room or whatever, I can smile and think of the good times we had and will have in the future.

I remember covering my eyes during certain parts of Wizard of Oz when I was little.

Dash away!
Dash away!
Dash away, all DISers to Target! :santa:

Aw, that is a great idea! I bet they do bring back some good memories. :goodvibes

Sis was and is still scared of the flying monkeys!

It won't be hard for me to dash to Target. I love it!
 
I was in Target last Sunday and I didn't see those items...:sad2:

What a nice surprise to happen upon a bit of Disney to lighten up your day!

I will be in the US this coming Sunday again, hopefully they still have some of the stuff left.

I would love the red mickey bowl!

Dear Santa, can I please find the bowl under my tree this year...I've been a good girl...ask my DIS friends...:santa:

I will say little prayer for your church members tonight. :hug:
 
Well, I found them on Target.com so I had to place an order :-) The plates and bowls come in sets of 6 so I won't have to worry about having enough in the store. I got the tray and the bowl too! They are soooo cute! I need to stay off the computer until Christmas is over if I know what's good for me...... I didn't see the chip and dip bowl online so there maybe a Target trip on the agenda this week after all.

By the way, I think I have a ton of those Dalmation figures that were in happy meals a few years ago. If I haven't given them away already I'll be glad to send them on! I think that would be an awesome theme for a party, It would make a cute cake!
 

Back to Hollywood Studios in the heat of the summer, as I put away my Christmas things.

Nobody was back this way.

Into Writer's Stop to get a sweet treat to go with my ice water.

I was trying to decide between a carrot cake cookie and a white chocolate macadamia nut cookie.

IMG_7418.jpg


IMG_7417.jpg


I really like the latter best, but a lot of people had been craving the carrot cake cookie here on the boards, and the girls who were behind the counter were encouraging that choice when I told them I was trying to decide. I didn't want to go against them, so I went for one.

IMG_7419.jpg


Now it was time to go and join the herd headed for Fantasmic.
I was sorry Jill and the girls were not with me to enjoy it, but we will hopefully be able to see it on the spring trip.

The crowd.

Bubbles & water screens.

Since I have very few pictures, I am going to guess that Jill has a video somewhere, because I know I didn't let that big white boat go by without capturing it!


IMG_7449.jpg


Hopefully, she can locate that and share it.

Time to go home. I got more out of the day than I expected.

IMG_7451.jpg


The time was now:

By the time I got in and got a shower, I'm sure it was well after midnight when my head hit the pillows and the snoring began! ;)
 
Go away for a few days and come home to find a number of great updates. Great to see those pictures, we're starting to get excited about our surprise.

:cool1::cool1::cool1::cool1:

Yeah, the flying monkeys were something else! :eek:

They were on an endcap at my store. Why don't you jump on Target.com, like Stephanie did, real quick!

Thanks for the prayers. Seems like it's been a rough month or so for a lot of people, and of course it always seems harder when things are sad and gloomy around holidays.

I hope our Canadian friend has good luck with that, too. I am headed that way just to look.

Just to look.

Just to look!

JUST TO LOOK!!!

I am talking to myself, mind you. :upsidedow

Somewhere in our toy boxes we have 2-3 Dalmatians. I know we have one in a red car, Bella had one sitting on a soccer ball yesterday, and I have one poking up out of a Christmas present. If Jill decides to do that theme, we may give you a call.

:cool1::cool1::cool1::cool1:

I know you are! :woohoo:

We're trying to carry over as little as possible into the new report. We don't have many pages left on this one, so we're going fast and furious!
 
Yum! A carrot cake cookie would make the perfect dessert tonight with my tea. I have never had one. That's definitely on my list for this weekend.

Have you attended MVMCP? I'm trying to decide if I should get tickets for Thursday or Friday night. Is it worth it? This is the first time I'll get to see Disney decked out for the holidays. Definitely excited!
 
Oh Did I hear a trip to Target was in order? :rolleyes1 :cool1:

I will have to look. I was in there earlier in the week but I will pass by that section a little slower next time. ;)
 
Wow you're really moving along now. I'm really enjoying all the pictures.

I really like what you picked up at Target today. I guess I wasn't in the right area because I didn't see them while I was there.:sad2:
 
I'm back. I had to go to 2 Targets but I found the Mickey dishes. We have 2 Targets about 10 miles away from each other. I ended up just getting the red Mickey shaped bowl and 2 of the cereal bowls. The bowls are for my dog to use for her food and water bowl.:rotfl2: I also stopped by Wal-Mart. I bought a 3.5 foot black Christmas Tree. The reason is it's my DH's fault. I bought a few Villians ornaments at the Disney Store today and Lang said I needed to buy the black tree to hang them on. I thought he was crazy but the more I got thinking about it, I thought it would be cute. It is pre-lit with gold lights. I will post a picture when I get it decorated. Now I need to find more Villian ornaments. They have a set at DTD in the Christmas Store that I have been looking at for several years but never bought. Guess I need to add those to my never ending list.
 
Well, I see a trip to Target in my future!! LOL!!!


I really have to get back to DHS! I told Hollie that Brooklyn rode the ToT so she said she now has to ride it since her friend Brooklyn did! :)
 
:wave:Hey MeMom and gang! Just got home from my trip to Branson and through most of Arkansas! lol I just got caught up! I took a laptop with me but the battery wouldn't charge long enough to post anything!:sad2:
I took some pictures and may post them when I get a chance. I ran across some Jim Shore stuff and some Disney paintings. I also went to the Disney outlet in Branson and lets just say Ty racked up! lol I also bought some Disney ornaments because I am going to do 2 trees this year and one will be all Disney. I am going to buy Ty an ornament everytime we go to Disney as a way to remember each trip!
I'll try to get to the pics soon! I GOT LOTS TO CATCH UP ON AROUND THE HOUSE!
 
Great pics of DHS. I love the Mickey stuff from Target. I am resisting the urge to go to target.com right now.
I will keep those that are ill in my prayers. It really gets to me when I hear about a young one that is so ill. My youngest, Blake, fell when he was one and fractured his skull and sustained a mild concussion. We spent the weekend before Christmas in the hospital. He is perfectly fine now, but I have not been the same since. Two months after that, my brother died. He was 39. I have had a very hard time these past 2.5 years. I began planning my first trip to WDW since I was a child to serve as a distraction. Now, I fell in love all over again and I really enjoy these boards and the Disney experience. I have good days and bad days. I became closer to God these last few years for sure and really appreciate church and my church family.
 
Great pictures of your solo time at DHS! I have never noticed the mural above the ABC Commissary counter. I will have to check that out sometime!

Okay, I definitely see a Target trip in my future! I MUST have that Mickey Christmas platter! And maybe a few other things, too! :laughing:

I have to scrape most of the cream cheese frosting off. I like the taste, but just not so much of it.

I have not been to the Christmas Party, but I am sure there will be many here who have and can help you. What I have heard is that it is good, but most people like MNSSHP better for the money. Jus seeing Disney World decked out for Christmas without paying extra will be enough for you, I bet, if you decided not to pay for MVMCP. There are so many resorts that are beautifully decorated, huge and amazing trees at every park, fun window displays, Christmas music and decorations everywhere... I'm sure the party is great, though, and I want to do it once sometime in the future. When we have been at Christmas, our times have been such that we got to see the special parade for free, so I don't feel like we have missed out on much.

Sounds like it. :thumbsup2

I just stumbled upon them.
It was those paper plates, you see. :rolleyes1



Now I'm going to have to make a trip to Target. Just to LOOK! ;) :laughing:

We'll see how that works for ya. :)

More pictures this evening. Don't have time this morning.

I am a little less depressed about my lack of a Disney Christmas now than I was 24 hours ago. :laughing:

The Villains tree will be a sight to behold! I have a teacher friend that would love that. She's all about the Villains. I'll have to tell her about it.

I am familiar with never-ending lists. ::yes::



Well, I see a trip to Target in my future!! LOL!!!


I really have to get back to DHS! I told Hollie that Brooklyn rode the ToT so she said she now has to ride it since her friend Brooklyn did! :)

Hollie would enjoy the plates and cups. There was another kind of cup - the kind with the little shapes trapped inside the watery thing onthe outside. I hate those cups, though! :eek: They make me gasp for air. :laughing: I liked the ears ones for the girls.

Yes, pictures please. Always pictures. :thumbsup2
I want to get to a Disney Store before Christmas, but the nearest one is 150 miles away, so that's not happening. :sad1:

This little boy was actually in his mother's arms, and a boulder the size of a basketball came flying down and hit him in the head! At first it was thought that it was just a loose rock falling, but now they are saying it is more likely that someone pushed it. That act changed a lot of lives forever, I know that.

I know what you mean about not being the same. Our lives changed when Trent almost died, as well. It really makes you know that this life is fleeting. That is why Disney trips with my family are more important than 'things' I could have around here. I am glad Blake is just fine now and able to give you all the little boy mischief that you can handle! :cool1:

I hope we do help to brighten your days when you have those sad moments. We do care about our DIS family very much.



Fantasmic!! :wizard: Gives me goosebumps every time. :goodvibes

I love it!

Right after school today.... :goodvibes
They probably won't last long.
 
Hi friends!! I'm home after a GREAT trip. I'll hopefully start the TR tonight after I load a bunch of pics.

Now off to read & get updated on TRs!! :) Have a great day!!
