What a sweet sleepy girl that Bella is! She is just so adorable! It amazes me how children can sleep so soundly in the parks! Then again, sometimes I wonder how I can keep going at the pace I do and not sleep soundly in the parks!
Last spring when my mum and I were leaving MK for the night I was listening to a little girl (probably about Brooklyn's age or so) telling her dad a story about the dog from PoTC. She had gotten a stuffed version of him and had named him "honey oatmeal" and how he had found the keys in the castle! It was sweet. I think of her everytime I see that dog now!
I can't wait to go back to Cosmic Ray's! The food is always good (I never noticed the Spanish on the menu board) and I love listening to the campy songs and jokes!
Honey Oatmeal sounds much like a Brooklynn name!
I love listening to little kids tell stories.
YAY for more fun had!!! Loved the pictures of Bella sleeping she is such a doll baby isn't she!! SO CUTE!!
HMMMMMM...dinner looks so yummy makes me hungry!! Now my lunch at school doesn't sound as good LOL!
We had McDonald's today. The kids loved it!
Well, I could be a biased judge, but I do think Bella is a pretty little doll baby.
Cosmic Ray's is a must do for us every trip. It seems usually we hit this area when it's raining and it's a great place to get in out of the rain. It's so big and we've always been able to find a seat and that's a good thing.
I don't think I've ever seen that parade. Nothing in it looks familiar to me. Is it a new one?
I think we have eaten there int he rain, too.
That's a good interactive parade. Little kids and grown-up kids can dance along when the floats stop.
What a sweet picture of Bella! I love seeing all the sacked out kids in strollers at Disney, I imagine that they are all having sweet Disney dreams!
You got some good shots on Pirates, I can never get any of mine to turn out. I bought a print of the jail scene and it is hanging in Everett's room over his changing table. Every diaper change we say "hi" to the dog and the pirates. I was hoping he would recognize the scene when we riding Pirates last week, but not yet, maybe when he is older.
That food from Ray's looks yummy, its making my stomach growl! Unfortunately I don't have anything remotely as good to eat for lunch!
I like the chicken at Cosmic Ray's, but I think we just all decided to go to the burger bay that day to make things easier.
I'm sure his eyes will light up soon when he sees that scene.
Yummm Cosmic Ray's! We love it there. The chocolate cake looks pretty good. Did Bella wake up in time for lunch?
I think the chocolate cake traveled back to the room with us. I don't remember. I believe Bella did eat. I really don't remember, though. I have to look at pictures, to recall, and if it isn't in the pictures, I am sometimes lost.
I can't wait to see the changes in Magic Kingdom. Disney is always updating something. We like Cosmic Ray's. The toppings bar has a pretty good selection.
We're going to be able to get so many new pictures over the next couple of years!
Awww poor Bella, she was pooped! I wish I was still a kid where someone would just push me around in a stroller when I needed a nap
Yummmm, Cosmic Rays! I do remember getting a picture message from you of Sonny that day Delish!
I think I must have sent a whole group of people a picture from there!
I am finally caught up on your report. I love the pictures at the soccer game. I love the sight of kids playing just for the fun of the game.
The parade pictures are fun. I love the fun music that is played. I always feel like joining in and celebrating.
Thoughts and prayers that the spot on your shoulder comes back normal.
I am looking forward to seeing some DIS kids together again on Saturday!
A lot of people don't care for parades, but I do. I know that it is a good time to ride rides, though.
So proud of you for going to the doctor! We are not that bad. Hope the biopsy turns out to be nothing.
Hope you have a great week. I went to Cooper's field day today. It was great, but I was exhausted just keeping the kids organized. One of the moms brought in a new Disney mug. She just got back a few weeks ago. Of course, I struck up a conversation about Disney. This is when I realized that most people that go to WDW are not obsessed like me. I may have scared her a little. She actually said that she cannot see buying DVC because she would not want to go every year. Oh well, I have my obsessed Dis friends here to talk about Disney endlessly.
Love the pics of POTC. One of my fav rides!
The spot on my leg was one of those
'I doubt it is anything' things, and it ended up being a big old chunk of mess inside my leg - Stage 3 Melanoma.
I hope this one has a different outcome.
I knew that it was 'something' when the doctor himself called and asked me if I was coming in for my appointment that afternoon, and I said yes. I thought it was wierd, because I had no reason not to go in. He said, "Okay, we'll talk then." I knew that was probably not a good sign.
You always have us to obsess with.
We get really excited about new Disney mugs.
I remember getting the Sonny Eclipse picture too.
Glad you went to the doctor and had that spot looked at. I am sure it will be nothing and you can rest easy.
I have not eaten at Cosmic Ray's in a while. Perhaps it is time to go back. CHH has had my attention the last few trips.
I tried to spread the Disney love.
I would ask Jill if she had sent a FB picture of something, and if she hadn't, then I would try to send a picture out to several people hoping that someone would share on the report. We have fun getting the pictures when others are there, and we have fun sharing them when it is our turn.
We like Columbia Harbour House, too. It seems like we tend to eat that more in the fall and winter months, though. Maybe just a habit?
So glad to hear that!!!!
Count me in with most everyone else who had no idea this existed! Very cool!!! I hope I remember to look for it next week!
GREAT JOB BROOK on scoring that goal and getting a meerkat! I saw that post on Facebook too and it made me laugh out loud-ONLY TRENT!!!
So so sad. I read the update about MinnieLor too, it had me in tears instantly. Even though I didn't know her personally, I recognized her name - and it's like loosing a family member. I do hope their trip at AKL was AMAZING celebrating their 15 years together!
Tonight, tornadoes are hitting Oklahoma. I have many friends with family there, so I'm nervous for them and in prayer. Hopefully everyone checks in and the devastation is just minimal.
I made a contribution in my family's name today. Maroo has a link posted on the Podcast Board, for anyone interested. I didn't give a lot, because I have just given to the Mexico summer mission fund at church to help several people reach their goal, so I didn't have much to give. It helped me, though, to be a small part of leaving a 'legacy' (a stone with their names on it) at the GKTW center.
I suggested Trent could keep the meerkat at his house, whenever he gets one.
I am so glad our DIS friends are safe.
Aw...Bella is T-I-R-E-D!
I love Cosmic Rays. I remember getting that pic from you that day. It made my day!
Glad it brightened your day.
It's so true about the headlines just being numbers and statistics - there definitely are people and lives behind that. Such devastating news and pictures.
...it's a bit difficult to transition to Disney from that!...
Awww Bella must have been tuckered out that even the parade didn't wake her up! I love POTC! Actually, I think I'm more impressed that the cannon scene in Pirates didn't wake her up! That always makes me jump a little with the splashes in the water
At any given time, some of us are having sorrows and some of us are having joys. I want people to stop for a minute, but then I want them to go and have more joy than ever so I can enjoy it from above.
At least, I hope I am above!
I've never been to Cosmic Rays! Definitely worth checking out. I think I got a picture of Sonny, too. I can't wait to be the one in Disney sending the pictures!
Never??? I think you'll like it. Be sure I am on the receiving end of some of those pictures.
I saw a thread on the DIS Unplugged board about the First Giving page in honor of MinnieLor. What a great tribute. I've been really saddened by all the devastating weather and tragedies lately. It seems to be everywhere.
Thankfully we have these boards to remind us of happy things and good friends!
Love the sleeping Bella pictures! What a sweetie! If I slept like that, I'd have a stiff neck for days! I've always wondered how babies do it...
Cosmic Rays - Haven't eaten there in a while, but it looks good! We got food there a few years back, but it was too crowded inside, so we went and ate in the rose garden. That was actually nice!
We do have these boards and the good friendships from them to make our lives richer. I didn't know how many good people I was missing out on being friends with before I found this place.
I hope the news from the doctor is good! I want you to be well!
Many years ago I had a biopsy done aswell and the waiting was the toughest part....everything turned out okay and normal so I was relieved.
momof2TNboys ....I would have done the same thing if I spotted the mug.
If I have an opertunity to talk about WDW....I jump at it!
I long ago realized that not everyone is as enthralled with Disney as I....so that's why I love it around here!
P.S. I would LOVE to own DVC one day.
I want to own DVC one day, but I can't say that that dream will come true. Maybe when I retire - who knows???
I'm sure the doctor will tell me I am good for another Disney trip or two.
I'll measure life in Disney trips to feel like there is always something to look forward to.
She actually said that she cannot see buying DVC because she would not want to go every year.
Oh well, I have my obsessed Dis friends here to talk about Disney endlessly.
