From what Dawn had described that she wanted, I felt like the little Mickey statue would be a good choice.

i can't wait to see him on the shelf in seth's room!!! thanks again for doing this for me. i really appreciate it. :hug:

They had these retro style t-shirts in many different colors.

MeMom it was me who asked for First Trip tee-shirts!!! I am so thankful you remembered, especially on your first morning!!! Yay! Thank you SO much!!! :yay: :hug:

I love it and its blue for Toby!!! He will be 2yrs when we go so fingers crossed they are still selling them and a 2T fits him!!!

Yay! Thank you again so very much!

Love, Love, LOVE the shopping pictures. I really needed to see those, this morning has been less than fantastic. :headache:
 

I love the shopping pictures!! I am just thinking that I was getting up to go to work that morning and getting ready to fly to Orlando. I want to go back so bad!!!! I finally broke down and told Jason that we had to have a tripped planned. So, we decided to go for the boys' birthdays in February (one is the 11th and one is Valentine's day). Cooper is excited. He wants a Pirate Cake and I am thinking if they still do the Pirates and Pals cruise that I will do that also. Keep the pics coming. I unfortunately did not find my monorail shirt when I was there so I guess I will be ordering it.
 
The Mickey 2010 figure was a good choice! I've been getting those for years now and I was so excited that they changed it this year - all the others look almost just alike except for the year. Love the shopping pictures :thumbsup2
 
I'm excited to see action across the lake! It will be neat to watch the progress.

The Pop shopping pictures take me back, I can imagine walking around there right now....wish I was! ;) Oh well, I have to wait a little longer...

I love the 2010 Mickey. It will look great in Seth's room.

Enjoy (don't know if that's the right word :upsidedow) your workshop days.
 
Blech to school workshops! Those should be outlawed in the summer!

Love the shopping pictures! The Mickey 2010 statue is so cute! What a great idea! I would have loved to have those for Chelsea and Connor for the years they were born!
 
Yay, a Disney shopping trip! I could look at Disney merchandise all day. Thanks for sharing your pictures. I think that Mickey statue is perfect for a baby born in 2010. Great idea.
 
I can't believe you got up early after the very late time you got to bed.

I can't wait to finally see POP, it has been a long time in the making! ;)

I didn't know Everything POP is the biggest gift shop.

Love all the shopping pics!

So glad you found something for Punkin to put in Seth's nursery. It's perfect! :thumbsup2

Did you wear your new tees while you were at WDW?

Funny that you had friends check on Drew while you were gone. I will be doing the same.

Aaron is staying with a friend but he will have axcess to the house to feed the cats. I will have my "spies" watching for any parties that may happen.
He was excellent last year (except for the very loud music at times) that I feel comfortable he will obey the rules.... but he is afer all a teenager. ;)

Hopefully your workshops aren't too horrible. :goodvibes
 
Great update :thumbsup2

I always enjoy your morning walk pictures , soo pretty !

Good to see that they are already working on the new value hotel

:love: the shopping pictures a always ! Saw a 2010 snowgoble that would be a great gift for our nieces ( they just informed me on there recent visit that they are collecting them ) lol. Really liked the t-shirt and the ones you purchased sound great , did you take any pictures of the ones u bought ? Would love to see them

Sorry it's not gonna be fun the next couple of days at school Can't wait to see more shopping pictures when you get done, that always cheers one up after a not so fun week ! lol

We look forward to staying at the new place. Brooklynn will love the themes!

I will take a picture of all of my souvenirs - maybe today. Jill took pictures of hers already, but hasn't put them up yet.

These seminars are just a reminder that school is still out there waiting for me in a few more weeks. I can't complain, though, because I had almost all of June free. it was nice.



Great update, MeMom! I love those retro style shirts.

I saw a lot of people wearing them during the trip. Some couples/families would have all the same color, and then I saw one family where they all had one but in a different color.



I'm so happy to see some work being done on the new resort. I had a guy in my office last month that was the project manager for the jukebox and the rubics cubes when they were building Pop. I was amazed to find they were built by a company across the Mississippi from Baton Rouge. He doesn't work there anymore but still knows people I'm hoping to find out if they will be building anything for the new resort.

Love the early morning pictures. Everything looks so fresh and new. And of course the shopping pictures! I would love to get my hands on some of the stuff.

I'd like the job of decorting the inside of those rooms. :thumbsup2

I like that Pop opens the gift shop and food court at 6. You can shop without a crowd and get pictures without people in the background.



Thanks for starting my day with Disney shopping. Pop Century has the best gift shop of all the resorts. Plus I love that they open so early, and stay open late.

It is great they have started on the new value, but I wished they had stayed with the generational theme. It would have bee fun to see what they came up with in the 10's-40's, but I am sure families will enjoy the animation theme.

Yep - 6 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. was the official listed time.

Since they are gearing this one more toward the younger set, maybe they'll do a moderate someday with a more grown-up theme. I know Brooklynn is going to be nuts about the new resort!



The photos of the flowers are making me sweat with all that humidity building up.

I love seeing the new construction across the lake. I think the new resort sounds AMAZING!

Thanks for the shopping pictures! the boys and I enjoyed them inmensely! Doug was picking out the many things he'd like to get. He also informed me that he thinks going in 2010 is a great idea. I told him that his daddy and I would have to think about whether 2010 or 2011 would work better for us. ;)

It makes me smile to think of you guys looking at the pictures together. :)

What about 2010 and 2011? :rolleyes1



i can't wait to see him on the shelf in seth's room!!! thanks again for doing this for me. i really appreciate it.

love these!

have as much fun as humanly possible at your workshops today and tomorrow!

Well, he's in your mom's hands now, along with the bib. :goodvibes
I look forward to seeing him on Seth's shelf, too.

The workshops are the next two days. I am glad I was able to have Sunday at home with the girls until they left, yesterday filled with housework and camp stuff, and today filled with the same before I had to dip back into school stuff. I'll tough it out through these two days because they are an exchange for two days in October to go along with our fall break. They give us W-Th-F, but if we also want M-T we have to go to these summer days. I plan to be in Disney World on that M-T, so I will remind myself of that!



I got that very shirt from this very display!
We enjoyed our walk around POP...such a fun place! My kids are begging to stay there now!

I almost got the purple one for my friend, but I texted her and gave her the color choices, and she picked pink.

Pop is a fine place. Maybe you could stay a couple of days before moving on to OKW or wherever.



MeMom it was me who asked for First Trip tee-shirts!!! I am so thankful you remembered, especially on your first morning!!! Yay! Thank you SO much!!!

I'm sure they will still have plenty of first trip shirts. I have always seen them on our previous trips. There may be different versions through the years.

I took a picture of the girls' shirt later in the trip, too.



Love, Love, LOVE the shopping pictures. I really needed to see those, this morning has been less than fantastic.

Sorry about the start of your day. Put some Disney fun in it and brighten it up. :wizard:

He wants a Pirate Cake and I am thinking if they still do the Pirates and Pals cruise that I will do that also. Keep the pics coming. I unfortunately did not find my monorail shirt when I was there so I guess I will be ordering it.

I saw two different monorail shirts this time. One is tighter fitting and made out of a lighter material, and the other is just a regular t-shirt.

The Pirate cruise would be awesome!
I'm so glad you are getting to go back!!! :cool1:

I will be sick when the day comes that we have no trip in the works.




Anybody who is familiar with the Atlanta and south of Atlanta area - we are seeking your ideas for a place to stay and things to do. We are hoping to meet Trent near his birthday week for some family time. Since he'll be traveling more miles, we'd like to go south of Atlanta to make it easier on him. We want a safe, family-friendly place outside of the city in some small town. We plan to go to the zoo and would like to go to a mall with a Disney Store, if possible. I have PMed a few of you, but there may be others who have some insight, too, and we'll take it all.
 
Just had a great time getting caught up on your TR, and one with shopping pictures too :yay:

Loved the girls matching 'jamas, have something similar in mind for my DDs to travel in - that flight from the UK is a long one and they'll need to be comfy! Wonder if I'd get away with Disney PJs too? :rotfl:

Love how generous you are with your photos and gifts for others, taking time to do things for others must give you lots of pleasure but still great that you do it whilst on your vacation. You've built a lovely little community right here on the Dis and hope that when our turn comes in Sept we'll be able to fulfil anyone else's wishes. Might try to get a PTR/TR going to collect photo requests, etc.
 
So glad that we could count on you for the shopping pics. I don't think I took a one!
A couple of the future executive onsies did make their way home with me though....

I love to shop at Pop!
 
Nothing like sipping my coffee and looking at pics of POP :goodvibes

I didn't realize that I kinda missed it not being there last trip. Thanks for the shopping fix!
 

My girls used to sleep like this, too. I just love it! :lovestruc

As usual, I really enjoyed your morning stroll and shopping pics! Did you take Mickey waffles back for the girls? :woohoo:



It will be fun to watch the progress of the Animation Inn & Suites (official name?) on our October, March, and next summer trips.

I really hope they come up with a better name than that! :rotfl:
 
Can't wait to get back to POP! It is a great place and I'll get to take all kinds of new pictures with my new camera.

MeMom is right, the gift shop is one of the best.
 
I'm here, I'm here:cool1:

I enjoyed following along on FB. I couldn't believe the start of the trip, but am glad it looks like it turned out much better for you guys.

On another note, I have on my calendar at home a possible Dis meet this Saturday? I'm not sure when I added it, but I think a while ago.
 
Someone wanted pictures of first trip t-shirts.

Summer2010PoptotheTop040.jpg


They started at 2T, though, which would have been a blanket for Bella on her first trip!

I got this very shirt for Ty when I was at POP in Novemebr. His is size 12 months so to little for him now. He's 24 pounds he has been about the same weight since I got this shirt. He is just taller and leaner now since he runs all the time.

Here is Ty wearing that very shirt when he started walking in November.
Sorry I don't have a still picture of him uploaded on Photobucket.


MeMom love all the pics. Can't wait to hear and see all about the rest of your trip. It will help pass the time until we go in October.
 
I just got the chills looking at those merchandise photos, especially the pins! I love your pictures because they always make me feel as though I'm there, looking at the stuff myself. Luckily, i've been to the Everything Pop store so I can just imagine my surroundings too!

Just like CanadianWDWfan, we will be there in a little over a month as well!! I cant take it anymore!
