I know what you mean. Kinda like the saying "If mama ain't happy, nobody is happy".......:lmao:
 
We had a little time after seeing CofP, and rode Space Mtn again. Haden just LOVED it!! I sat in front of him to hear him giggling the whole way thru!! So, after that, it was sprinkling still, and we got a little wet on the way to Tonys, but made our ADR on time. Kids were a little grouchy, since we didn't eat a CS for lunch, just rode and rode, and snacked. So, I check us in, try to dry ourselves off, and it took maybe 3 minutes, and I was buzzin!! So, we get our seat, I was in between the teenagers :headache: and across from my friend. We toasted to her graduating....and fun times, and just to everyone, which was cool. I got some pictures while sitting waiting for food.

They put mickey head confetti all over the table, and Syl had a little bit of fun with it. She looked soooo adorable!!

I told her if she licked them, they'd stick better, and they did!! :rotfl2:
We ordered our food, most got the steak, I got the shrimp scampi without the asparagus, and we were split on the appetizers. I got the garlic bread with bruschetta tomato toppings, and oh my....it was AWESOME!!! :worship: Will be ordering that again in October!!! HAHA

I got a good picture of Chrissy's ring we got for her, and I just loved it!!!

I think this was one of my favorite dinners of the trip!!

After dinner, the rain was gone, and MSEP had just started. So we stood out and watched it for a few minutes, and I started to cry. Last time I saw this parade, was with my grandmother. So....after not being able to take it anymore....I told Chris that we gotta go. We went to fantasy land and rode Pooh, and then headed towards peter pan. The fireworks went off while we were in line, and we saw a little bit of them. The girls were playing around in line, and I got a video of it before my battery died.



After riding PP, Syl said we forgot to do the jungle cruise, and that I told her it was better in the dark, so we went over that way to hop on. There was NO wait, and I wanted to avoid the bus crowds after the fireworks. We rode, and Syl agreed that it was better in the dark. So...we head to the busses, and we were ALL beat!!! They didn't have busses come for a little bit, like 10 minutes, then all of a sudden there was 3!!! It was nice, people were willing to give up their seat most of the time for me since I had braces on....sometimes I took it, others I didn't. Sometimes it's just nice to stand.

We got back to the room....and we all showered, and CRASHED!!!

Last morning.....is Tusker House!!! Which is next up!
 

I love the Confetti picture, very nice!

That's Classic Sylvia right there. That's what makes her so awesome!! wait until the next update, she does another fun Sylvia moment!!! It was just awesome taking her!!! I miss her soooo much!!!!

On another note, I think I've nailed down a soft itenerary and a resort for May....I want us all to stay together with Chris's niece, and I don't want to miss a minute with her kids....so I was thinking about the treehouses at SSR, but the transportation to and from sounds like the cabins, and kinda tough. So, I figured, what the heck, if we're gonna go all out for them, why not go all out? So, we'll stay at Bay Lake Towers!! I want a 2 bedroom, preferrably a lock off, and a MK view!!! Chris gets a bonus in December, so that'll more than pay for it....so as soon as I can book it, I'll book it. I don't wanna wait. I wanna do deluxe dining again with them, and lots of character breakfasts. They've never been at all......so I'm gonna give them the COMPLETE Disney goober package!!!!! :banana: Anyways, I'll inform ya'll about Sami's birthday soon. We're doing a yard sale this weekend for her birthday trip, her mom is coming down and bringing a bunch of stuff to sell, so lets hope we do good!!!! :)

It was a good day today, I'm in pretty good spirits. I figured why worry until the dr says something to worry about? So....just keep praying, it's very much appreciated, which is why I absolutely LOVE my disfriends!!! Ya'll are the BEST!!! :lovestruc Thanks for your support in this whole cancer thing, and I'll keep you guys as posted as I can. :grouphug:
 
What great pictures :thumbsup2:thumbsup2. We really like Tony's too, we will eat there in December. We have found that it is easy to get an ADR at Tony's and Plaza.
 
You gotta tell me when you're going to the christmas party, so I can see if I can meet ya'll there for it. So hurry up and figure that out will ya woman? I wanna meet up with you again!! IN the park, not at DTD, even tho I did really enjoy that day!! :)

I hope to know something soon. I have been looking to see when the AP rates will be out for that time of year and most of the stuff I have read says it is usually August. I want to meet up again too. I enjoyed DTD, but a park is fun because there is so much to do :thumbsup2:thumbsup2
 
Yea, If I can, I wanna try to meet ya'll out there and go to the party with ya'll, if ya'll want me there :) That way, we can hook up good, but It would be nice to know so I can arrange for the time off of work. Half days each way or something like that. So.....that's why I was wondering :)
 
I left off on the last day of MK, and I think that day, and this last day were my favorite of the whole trip, mostly because MK and AK are my favorite parks!! LOL We start out the morning with an 8:05 breakfast at Tusker House, and we got there maybe 5 mins late. I pack WAY too much, that I had to REPACK to leave!! LOL So, we get there, walk thru an empty park, joking and laughing with the CM's working that morning. We get checked in and had to wait for Donald to come out and take a picture....WHAT?? Wait for Donald?? UG it was like a half hour we waited for him, then he came, and I got this.

Notice the ears on Syl? Yea, told her she had to wear them and let me get pictures IN a park one day. So, she wore them this day. We get in, get our table, and get some food. Soon the characters start coming.

This next picture is one of my favorites, these 2 have known each other most of their lives, shoot, Chrissy's step dad taught Tyler how to WALK!! So, with Tyler being so tall, and them both wearing blue, they could almost pass as twins, even tho Chrissy is 3 years older than Tyler. I just thought it was cute with these 2. How long we've come, and how old I'm getting!! :headache:

And here's another Classic Sylvia Picture. The elastic band was bothering her, so she said hurry up and get a good pic, so the hat can come off. So I told her to pose good, and I'll be satisfied!! So, I got this!!

She's just SOOOO much fun!! The food was AWESOME at TH, and of course I had a waffle to go with everything else. I'll swear they put a drug or something in them waffles till the day I die I think. I just can't stop thinking about them, and wanting them!!! So, we eat good, and head out to the park. Next up, AK!!!!!
 
I so wish we were breakfast people so I could make a breakfast ADR and get into the parks early. But, we just don't eat much breakfast and I feel like I'd be wasting a table service credit.

What the heck was Donald doing that he made you guys wait for 30 minutes to see him? That's seems like a pretty long time to wait.

Glad to see that you got Sylvia to actually wear the graduation ears in the park. I love the picture of her with the two thumbs up.:thumbsup2
 
Great update! That breakfast looked like fun! If we end up having the extra money to splurge I'd LOVE to do the deluxe. We'd get everything in.

I started my may 2011 PTR. I couldn't wait any longer.
 
Thanks ya'll!! Lisa, I LOVE breakfast food, we didn't get too much on the september trip last year cause my sister is a sleeping type of person. Chris fell in love with CP, so now that's his place to go. I wanted alot of the character interaction for Haden, without the lines, since it was June. Who knew I'd fall in love with Deluxe dining?? LOL I use my mug every day!! So, now each trip I've got planned, includes deluxe dining!! For me, it's TOTALLY worth it!!
 
Great update :thumbsup2. I love the picture of Syl in her "graduation cap"......:rotfl:. I know ya'll had a great time all being together again. The worst part of a Disney trip is the packing and unpacking. I didn't unpack for our two nights at the Comfort Suites; we just got our clothes out of the suitcases as we needed them. I guess I need to start thinking about what we will be taking on our September trip since it is only 4 weeks away :cool1::dance3::yay:.
 
4 Weeks, I wish!! I got like 59 days. UG!! I'm hoping to drop off another 10 lbs before then tho. I'm working on it!!! Yea, let me know when you'll be there, and stuff, and I'll try my best to meet up with ya there. But I do agree, the packing and unpacking are the worst, and I pack ALOT!!! I told Chris that I'm trying NOT to pack for a million years for just a weekend in October. But we'll see LOL
 
You're deluxe dining plan report is definitely making me WANT it! I'm really thinking if we don't go until next august and free dining is announce again it could be a definite possibility for us. Manny and Anthony would be in Heaven with all of that food, and we'd plan enough character meals like you did so we wouldn't have to stand in lines for who knows how long in the heat.:thumbsup2 I could have with making those ADRs

Man, I can't wait for the trip in May. Really looking forward to seeing Chris's niece, and her 2 kids. I'm gonna eat up them kids, just like I ate up Haden!! :love: I've already started BUYING things for them kids!!! I know, I'm mental. Just having WAY too much fun buying little kids stuff!!!!

You'd like the deluxe dining. It was awesome. LOVED breakfast, so if you're a breakfast person, go for it. it's sooooo much nicer to have the characters come to YOU!!! We got back to my house tho, and Sylvia was asking where her breakfast was!!!! :lmao: I guess I spoiled her!! LOL
 
Alright, the plan for Sami's birthday in october...I really don't want to finish up my last day. Makes it feel over. Ya'll know? LOL

SO, we get over there on Oct 1st, check into the cabins, and I have an 8:15 ADR at Kona. I LOVE Kona, so does Chris and Tyler. :love: First day, wake up, breakfast at Ohana, since I couldn't get into crystal palace....and then MK. Dinner is at Tony's again. Sami requested it. Then, Sunday, check out, and head to AK, I want breakfast somewhere, but I can't get ressies!! :headache: So, I'll keep trying.....and we'll go see the animals. My 2 favorite parks!!! It's gonna be us 3, Sami, her mom, and possibly her little boyfriend PT. If his parents will let him go. Quick trip, get what we want done and be over. Then, the PTR for May can get started!!!!! :yay:

We're thinking about getting tickets for the Star Wars thingie next saturday night, it's at DHS, Tyler is a HUGE star wars fan, so he'll be psyched. Something about the Last trip to Endor party.....not sure, but Tyler will LOVE it!!! I'll keep ya'll posted. I'll probably need it after my skin appointment on Thursday.
 
Sounds like a nice little trip coming up. And oh, I heard about that last tour to endor party. Definitely sounds like a blast! Especially for star wars fans.

I know you don't wanna finish up your last day.........but........i'm waiting for it :lmao:
