The girls faces are precious when they see Trent. Is he still with you or are you back In TN?
Looks like everyone had a great time. Chelsea and Connor were really into Bella! Did they play with Brooklynn, too?
I must learn how to make mickey shaped chocolate chip cookies!
Trent is still here. Jarvis arrive just after the party yesterday, too. They watched football yesterday, and Trent played with Brooklynn in the pool. In the evening, Trent, Jill, and Jarvis went out to pick up Chili's and brought it back to our room, which is a suite. We just ate and hung out until bedtime.
They did play with Brooklynn. Connor was very concerned about her not going past that yellow sign, which went out into the open part of the mall. Every time she went that way, he herded her back into the pack. It was so cute and so helpful!
Chelsea had the unenviable position of holding Bella during the pictures. Bella is not one to sit still for pictures, so I give Chelsea lots of credit for sticking with it during the whole photo shoot.
The Mickey cookies were great! She said she had a lollipop pan she made them from. I will have to remember that. The ones dipped in chocolate with sprinkles were a huge hit.
You're right, MeMom....Kschafer and I should totally meet up. We only live a few hours from each other.
I love all the pictures! Looks like you guys had a GREAT time at the Atlanta meet!!
We've enjoyed every DIS meet we've ever had. I would suggest you hook up sometime before we do a St. Louis meet. You won't regret it.
We did have a wonderful time. We are so glad we had this special weekend.
This picture just cracked me up! I guess it's my weird sense of humor but I was picturing Brooklynn saying "Hey! Smell my pit!" and then they became lifelong friends.
Looks like a good time was had by all!
Hopefully
Poolrat and I will be able to make the next meet.
I want to know what book Connor is reading! LOL
I think seeing each other in person shocked both of them for just a minute, because they have seen many pictures of each other. They both sort of stared and didn't know what to say for a minute. Five minutes later, they were carrying on a conversation like they'd known each other for quite some time.
Jill said during lunch they were debating over whether one of them was eating ham or turkey. She said that conversation went something like this:
Ham.
Turkey.
Ham.
Turkey.
Ham.
Turkey.
I think Jill said it was chicken.
Looks like you guys had such a good time!
I'm cracking up over this picture!
I think Bella ended up destroying about three of cherokeemomma's cookies.
I don't mean eating. Just destroying.
She licked some of the sprinkles off one. It broke and fell to the ground, so someone gave her a replacement. That one got set down who knows where, and by the time the party was over, she was sucking on another cookie. She probably didn't actually eat one whole ear's worth between the three, though. Silly girl.
That looks like so much fun! Love the cupcakes and cookies! You can tell that a lot of care and sugary goodies went into each of them. I love seeing how all the bigger DISkids were looking out for the littler ones.
Such a fun day!
The kids were great together. cherokeemomma's teenagers not only came and joined in a bunch of DIS stranger/freaks, but they socialized willingly! GREAT kids.
I did not see the peas in a pod in a store. I may have seen a shirt but no plush. I will look closely at my pictures, in case my eyes missed it but the camera caught it.
I made it back. We had some fun, and some adventures too. The meet looked great, sorry I missed it but around the time you were meeting, I was waiting forever for a bus, rushing to get on another bus and then having an adventure to the airport.
I do believe that alone deserves a trip report.
I am caught up here and with baby news. The rest will have have to wait until the morning while I am doing lots of
.
It is not sounding like your adventure was a good one.
Wigd is having no luck with her veggie hunt. She said she could get one on ebay for around FIFTY bucks!!!
MeMom.....Love, love, love the pictures. Believe it or not I almost talked Ty's Poppy into a road trip to Atlanta last night. We really need a weekend away. I had the idea in my mind for a few days, but then his Mom had a unexpected trip to the emergency room and I think he was a little worried about leaving her right now. She is diabetic and has lost one leg already and on top of that she has heart problems. She has 3 adult children in our town, but we live very close to her so he feels (and so does his siblings) that it's our place to be here for her. But, I did show him everybody and now he knows that you all are not my imagnary friends, but that you are real live people.
And on top of that really NICE people. He knows how disappointed I was about missing the Memphis meet. And by the way I'm all for a St Louis meet. It's only about 4 hrs for me. If Sarah had been in town she would have made the trip with me, but she was on her way back from Glynco Ga where her boyfriend just graduated from something
for the Fed. prison where he works. Trent saw where she posted on FB that she was in Ga and I told him. We might just be meeting him at DTD in October. I hope it works out.
Everyone there was just so down to earth and friendly. We 'mixed and mingled' and got to talk to everyone. I think the only person I didn't have at least a one minute conversation with was Chad. He was helping out with Hannah down at the other end of the side of tables we were sitting at. reel mom's husband was probably a reluctant participant at the start of the meet, as she said he was very shy about things like this. I totally get that, because in situations other than Disney things, so am I. He did talk with us, though, about a possible Star Wars Weekend trip next summer, and the he and reel mom were talking to cherokeemomma's kids during lunch, as they all sat at the table beside me.
I hope you do get to meet Trent during your trip. He works so much, but I hope there will be a short block of time that works for him and doesn't disrupt your schedule, too. He's a nice guy and will not hold back from carrying on a conversation like he has known you before that meeting.
We sure would have loved to have you guys there yesterday, but family obligations come first.
i'm sure i will make the next one though. i talked to memom earlier and she said you guys had a great time. i can't wait to see pictures!
!!
