Good job!
And I still have 45 minutes left before I leave for church.

I look forward to a great report on Boma, as I continue to try to talk Jill into it.

Hollywood Brown Derby - I want to go for the Grapefruit Cake, if nothing else. I know we'll get to this one eventually. I know the decor will be interesting - all those pictures of the stars.

We have all agreed on going to Teppan Edo this summer, so we'll be glad to see your pictures of that one.

Congratulations on your success. It'll be fun, now, to put that down in writing and dream of all that good eating yet to come. That should make the trip seem even more real and ever closer!

Hurrah!!! But 55 min on the phone? Ah, well, totally worth it to have gotten everything you wanted! And you're even having a DIS meet!

Can't believe Charles was even going to try to muck with Operation ADR last night!

I also love your charts... very organized!

Now I have to go back and read your Epcot update from yesterday. I was so excited this morning that I had to come straight to your ADR update!

 

[TarzansKat]

First of all, congrats on getting all the ADRs you wanted. I know that's such a wonderful feeling, and for me, when that's done, my trip always seems more real.

I love the pictures of your kids in the Epcot update! I swear, I know having a sibling isn't all sweetness and light (my sister and I mostly get along), but when I look at pictures of Chelsea and Connor, it so makes me want to have another baby! Just don't tell anyone, okay?

 

[Nicole786]

Yay! So excited for you! I love your well thought out plan!!! lol I have a similar restaurant chart to yours so I knew exactly which restaurants! I have never eaten at tusker house i really need to give that a try one day!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Just read the Epcot update. LOVED it! Connor holding Chelsea at sword-point throughout the years is priceless! He looks a lot like your brother! The pic of baby Chelsea and Pooh is too cute.

Epcot has really grown on me over the years too... now it's my favorite!!

Yayayayayayayayayayayaya!

I think snagging ALL of the ADRs you desired calls for some YMCA and Yahoo'ing!!

I am so happy for you!! I am so excited you are going to Hollywood Brown Derby!!

I've been calling Disney so much lately, that I think they are playing a lot less songs, I can notice more of a music loop if you will. I wonder if anyone else has noticed this or if I just call way too much...??

Good job!
And I still have 45 minutes left before I leave for church.

Whew! I was worried that I would still be on the phone when you got back from church!

I look forward to a great report on Boma, as I continue to try to talk Jill into it.

We have eaten there a few times before and just love it! The food is always wonderful!

Hollywood Brown Derby - I want to go for the Grapefruit Cake, if nothing else. I know we'll get to this one eventually. I know the decor will be interesting - all those pictures of the stars.

Cobb salad and grapefruit cake -- that's what I am ordering!

Anything old Hollywood glamor appeals to me so I can't wait to see the inside.

We have all agreed on going to Teppan Edo this summer, so we'll be glad to see your pictures of that one.

We had soooo much fun at Teppan Edo last summer, we just knew we needed to eat there again.

Congratulations on your success. It'll be fun, now, to put that down in writing and dream of all that good eating yet to come. That should make the trip seem even more real and ever closer!

That will be this afternoon's project. For now, I have to come down off my Disney high and head to Walmart.

Hurrah!!! But 55 min on the phone? Ah, well, totally worth it to have gotten everything you wanted! And you're even having a DIS meet!

Now I have to go back and read your Epcot update from yesterday. I was so excited this morning that I had to come straight to your ADR update!

All of a sudden last night Charles said, "I want to eat at that Canadian place."

My trip seems so real at this point!!! 90 days!!!

Thanks! Chelsea and Connor do tend to get along at WDW -- other times? Not so much now that Chelsea is in middle school.

Yay! So excited for you! I love your well thought out plan!!! lol I have a similar restaurant chart to yours so I knew exactly which restaurants! I have never eaten at tusker house i really need to give that a try one day!

Thanks! You do need to eat at Tusker House sometime -- it's great food and I love the theming!

Just read the Epcot update. LOVED it! Connor holding Chelsea at sword-point throughout the years is priceless! He looks a lot like your brother! The pic of baby Chelsea and Pooh is too cute.

Epcot has really grown on me over the years too... now it's my favorite!!

Thanks! Connor is too funny when he gets a sword in his hands! Apparently, I let my daughter go barefoot in Epcot that day -- she wasn't walking yet, though, so that's my excuse.

Thank you for my Village People!

I am soooo looking forward to the Brown Derby!

It is looping -- I heard Splash Mountain twice. I feel like I spent the morning with Brer Rabbit which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Yea for the ADRs I got up this morning and after the regular restroom necessities, scurried to the computer to see how you did! After a bit of a wait it seems that you did very well at getting just what you wanted. You are going to have such a wonderful trip, and I just can't wait for our CP breakfast!

Yes, I do notice the looping and yes I do call waaaay to much.

Thank you! Of course while I was on hold I kept thinking all sorts of dire thoughts -- since only some of the CMs are trained on the new system, I kept wondering if I would have to wait on one of them to come in...at like, 9:00! Or if I would accidentally get disconnected and have to go through all of it again. Or if my phone call would get lost in the queue. I tend to worry a lot.

We are very excited about our CP breakfast! I just know that Baylor and Connor will get along wonderfully!

 

[Lady Lallie]

I think the same thoughts when I was on hold like that the second time I called to get the Yak N' Yeti ADR.

The first time I called for my ADRs, I got the ones I need in the "old" system and then the CM said he would transfer me. Ten minutes later the first CM comes on and says I'm going to transfer you directly so it was like I bypassed the queue almost. The second time they just dumped me in the queue and I waited 50 minutes.

Oh and I am so jealous that you get to have breakfast together, Anita & CP. Anita you are going to be there when I am and then still be there when CP arrives!!??

 

[wigdoutdismom]

Last Sunday with the 3 hour marathon call, I kept asking Marc, "does this music mean that I'm still connected"? Rational thoughts kept leaving my mind.........

I know that Baylor and Connor will enjoy each other, but I can't wait to see the lengths Baylor will go to try to impress the beautiful, much older Chelsea!

Now I must leave this computer and drag up luggage and get some packing done

 

[kschafer]

Congrats CP on getting everything you wanted!

I must confess, you family is much more adventurous about eating than my family would be. As much as people rave about it, I doubt we'll ever eat at Boma (and tusker house and Teppan Edo are only maybes - with all the choices at WDW, that means probably never) I would like to try Brown Derby and Rose and Crown someday though

 

[MRYPPNS]

Congrats on your ADRs!! I can't believe you were on hold for 45 minutes at 7am ....sounds like they have cut the numbers of CM's working the phones.

 

[jewels1916]

Congrats on getting all your ADRs!!!

 

[micandminforever]

Congrats on the ADR. They sound great not only all places, but all times. My DH, his family and I tried Teppan Edo last time we were in EPCOT and it was great. I look forward to your report on breakfast at Tusker House, and Hollywood Brown Derby they are on my list for next time.

 

[dddisrunner]

WOO HOO!! What a GREAT feeling it must be to have that DONE!! I can't wait!!! I am soooooo happy for you that you got everything you wanted!!! Does the trip feel so much more real now? By the way I LOVE your binder!!! LOVED the old school pictures of Epcot too! It is amazing to see those "through the years pictures"!!

 

[julezdisney]

I loved your synopsis of Epcot through the years!

And yay to snagging all your ADR's! Now you can fill in all those lovely spaces in your binder!

 

[jenjolt]

Awwww...Jackie you posted a picture of my beloved character bus! I wish I could find that picture somewhere....but I can't. What great memories that brought back for me!!!

I loved watching EPCOT through the years through your eyes what a great transition it has been. I think EPCOT has grown on me so much over the years it is now one of my absolute faves.

Congrats on getting all your ADRs that is the best news ever!!!! I'm so happy for you!! You guys are going to have the best trip ever!!
