Hags, Meltdowns, no makeup..OH MY!!!! 9/20 NEW PTR LINK POSTED

What a great review of 1900 Park Fare - Loved it!! :thumbsup2

How cool of the characters to come round again. I think the pics of you guys with Tigger look great. Am glad Hollie got some extra attention because of her birthday button. Also yay on meeting The Mad Hatter - :woohoo: How did Hannah react to him?

Love the pics of Hollie outdoors whilst waiting for your MIL! Sounds like you had fun shopping at DTD. I went aaw over the pic of Hannah with the pink princess ears hat :lovestruc
 
Wow, what great character interaction at 1900 Park Faire. So glad you had such a nice breakfast!

Too cute about Hollie shopping. I love to watch Jeremy shopping at Disney. It is so funny what he will buy with his money versus what he wants to buy with mine! :lmao: It sounds like Hollie did a great job! :thumbsup2

:love: Hannah's minnie ears!

Can't wait to hear all about the luau.
 
Wow, that is wonderful character interaction! How fun for Hollie. I bet she felt pretty special. :) And then got to buy so many fun things?! What a wonderful Disney morning!
 
I love all the great pictures of the character at 1900 Park Faire. Holly looked like she was having a wonderful time. Hannah was so cute in the princess ears.
 

You got such great interaction at 1900 PF! That's so great Hollie got that much attention :) I love her outfit, too, she's all Disney'd out :cutie: Can't wait to hear about the luau!
 
Great updates. What a fun day so far. How did Holly like the luau. I have debated taking Claire. I hear that some kids get antsy during it.
 
LOVE your updates!!! :) Omg what a cool time you guys had at 1900 PF!! :) Nice!!

I loved that Hollie had money to spend... and she knew exactly what to do with it! LOL!!
 


I was walking around with Hollie who had a hole burning in her wallet! Lol She had saved some money from her birthday and also some money that my parents gave her to buy her some gifts down in Disney. Well, let me tell you! I don’t think I took a picture of all the stuff she bought but this is what I can remember:
A pink hairpiece like the ones at BBB, a Minnie Mouse costume with the ears, 2 pairs of pajamas, some candy in princess and tinkerbell tins, and a lollipop. She was having a ball!

This made me laugh. I can picture her making her decisions and feeling so financially empowered. :laughing:
 
You did luck out on the character interaction!!! Love all the pictures with everyone!!!

Hollie is too cute doing her shopping! :thumbsup2
 
Oh my! Hollie did a fabulous job shopping! I just can't wait to eat at 1900 Park Fare! Just to be able to sit somewhere in the Grand Floridian is going to be a dream come true!!
 
Loving Hollie's shirts so far! :thumbsup2 I love wearing shirts that go with the theme I'm eating at/park I'm going to. :laughing: And is that a Tink shirt I notice you're wearing??

That was so cute of Pooh to take Hollie to meet another birthday girl!

Oooh, gotta love the World of Disney store! Hannah looks great in those Mickey ears! Just a little bit longer and they'll fit her! :cutie:
 
Whew...I'm all caught up!!! (I'm also way late, but that's nothing new LOL)Spent the morning really enjoying your TR!!! What a great trip so far!!

I have to say you have two absolutely adorable girls!!!!

Can't wait to read more!!!
 
So, we woke up a little early this morning. We had our very first visit to 1900 Park Fare!! Yay!!! Hollie got dressed in her Alice dress, which she immediately wanted to take off! So I put her Alice shirt on her and Hannah wore a cute I love Mom outfit and we were ready to go! Here are my sweet babies on the way to the GF.

My favorite resort ever!!

We arrived at the GF. MIL dropped us off at the door so she could go park. We went in and got checked in at the podium. They took a cute picture of us, that I will have to scan and post later. Oops!

So we got our picture and they immediately took us in to our table. I ran up to get Hollie her plate while Chad stayed with Hannah. I am awful this time, I did not do very good on the food porn!

Now, I can say the character interaction here was the best!!! They spent so much time with you that it was unbelievable! I bet we saw each character at least 3 times!

Now, I don't want to leave you hanging...but I am pooped! So I will be updating the rest of our wonderful breakfast in the morning!


Is this the one?

HOlly looks so cute in her Alice Tee - doesn't it just get you how you get all excited as a mom to have them dolled up in a costume and then they melt down and take it off? Good for you for not sweating it. I was glad that we had no costume drama this trip!

The Breakfast looks like fun! You really did have a LOT of character time -- see the characters know who the cutie pies are! The chocolate slipper is awesome, I've never seen that before. We did dinner at 1900, not breakfast.

Can't wait to hear your take on the luau. We enjoyed it but I was far to busy taking in the "eye candy" to take pictures :lmao::lmao:(Love that fire dancer!)
 
1900 Park Fare looks like so much fun, how exciting for Hollie that they visited with her for so long and the picture of Pooh leading her by the hand is adorable.

I love the pic of Hannah with the mouse ears, too cute!

I can't wait to hear what you guys thought about the lua:goodvibes

It was a lot of fun! We really enjoyed it and can't wait to go back. We would like to try dinner their next time! She was so happy and loving it when Pooh took her around the room! So sweet!

Aw, thank you! I could not stop laughing! She was too funny with the ears. I am gonna have to buy her some next time.

We LOVE the luau! Chad and I had been before but this was Hollie's first time and I will be telling everyone what she thought of it! ;)

What a great review of 1900 Park Fare - Loved it!! :thumbsup2

It was so good!

I know, I was really happy they did that. I am so used to places being crowded and a little hectic, so it was nice to be at a breakfast where it was just chilled out!

Hannah loved the Hatter! She was really wanting to pull his nose! ha ha

Aw, thank you! :)

So fun that Alice came around again! Nice slipper for Hollie, did she eat it up?

I have to ask, how old was Hannah on this trip? We are bringing Riley in Sept and he'll be 7months. Just trying to gage if his reactions will be like Hannah's.

Oh yes, she ate most of it but the mousse part of it wasn't as sweet as she liked! ha ha So she just ate part of the slipper and that was it! Oh, plus the raspberries! lol

She was 7 months old. She did really good on the trip. It was just cold a couple of days, so his mom would just push her in the stroller and they would go in shops while we rode stuff with Hollie. She loved the characters and what rides she rode, she loved them. But mostly it was just riding in the stroller, eating, and sleeping! lol
I went to Babies R Us and bought the formula she drinks in a 24 pack of 8 oz. cans. Those were perfect! I don't know how you feed Riley, but those were perfect because they were already mixed and I would just pop the top and pour it in a bottle. I know what the easiest would be (unfortunately I had to switch to formula early on because Hannah wasn't getting enough "mommy milk" lol) It was way better than mixing the powder with water.

Wow, what great character interaction at 1900 Park Faire. So glad you had such a nice breakfast!

Too cute about Hollie shopping. I love to watch Jeremy shopping at Disney. It is so funny what he will buy with his money versus what he wants to buy with mine! :lmao: It sounds like Hollie did a great job! :thumbsup2

:love: Hannah's minnie ears!

Can't wait to hear all about the luau.

We sure did! :)

She is a hoot!! It was so funny to watch what she picked. Of course, she loves pajamas and really wanted to buy 4 gowns, but I said no to that! lol She has about 100 at home!
It really is funny how they are with their own money. Its like she had to look at everything! lol

Wow, that is wonderful character interaction! How fun for Hollie. I bet she felt pretty special. :) And then got to buy so many fun things?! What a wonderful Disney morning!

It sure was! She did feel pretty special! She said they were now her BFF's!! ha ha

I love all the great pictures of the character at 1900 Park Faire. Holly looked like she was having a wonderful time. Hannah was so cute in the princess ears.

Aw, thank you! She sure was! She was a big fan of the strawberry soup too!! lol
I wish I had bought them for her, but I will next time I go! :)

You got such great interaction at 1900 PF! That's so great Hollie got that much attention :) I love her outfit, too, she's all Disney'd out :cutie: Can't wait to hear about the luau!

I was really happy with that!
Aw, thank you! She thinks its funny when they walk up to her and say something about her outfits! ha ha
 
Great updates. What a fun day so far. How did Holly like the luau. I have debated taking Claire. I hear that some kids get antsy during it.
Aw, thanks ladie!
She loved it! I had debated about taking her too because she is such a wiggle worm we were afraid she would get bored, or want to move around. Not at all!! I have never saw her sit as still as she did watching it.

Love the 1900 PF update...did she eat her chocolate slipper???

Aw, thanks!!
She ate most of it, she didn't like the mousse part! ha ha

LOVE your updates!!! :) Omg what a cool time you guys had at 1900 PF!! :) Nice!!

I loved that Hollie had money to spend... and she knew exactly what to do with it! LOL!!

Aw, thanks love! (Still waiting on you to come up!! lol)

She was so funny getting her shopping on!! haha

This made me laugh. I can picture her making her decisions and feeling so financially empowered. :laughing:

Oh I know! It was very funny to watch her pick things up then put them down, then grab about 5 more!! ha ha

You did luck out on the character interaction!!! Love all the pictures with everyone!!!

Hollie is too cute doing her shopping! :thumbsup2

I am telling you, it was amazing!! Aww, thanks lady!

She is a hoot! ha ha

Oh my! Hollie did a fabulous job shopping! I just can't wait to eat at 1900 Park Fare! Just to be able to sit somewhere in the Grand Floridian is going to be a dream come true!!

She was so funny!! It is really good and of course, the place is just gorgeous to walk around and look at!

Loving Hollie's shirts so far! :thumbsup2 I love wearing shirts that go with the theme I'm eating at/park I'm going to. :laughing: And is that a Tink shirt I notice you're wearing??

That was so cute of Pooh to take Hollie to meet another birthday girl!

Oooh, gotta love the World of Disney store! Hannah looks great in those Mickey ears! Just a little bit longer and they'll fit her! :cutie:

Aw, thanks girl!! You know I love the Disney shirts!! ha ha I do too! I have to theme everything! Oh yes, its an old one so I need to get me a new one!! ha ha

Aw, I know! She thought that was so cool!

She was so funny!! I wish I had bought those ears, they were so cute on her!

Whew...I'm all caught up!!! (I'm also way late, but that's nothing new LOL)Spent the morning really enjoying your TR!!! What a great trip so far!!

I have to say you have two absolutely adorable girls!!!!

Can't wait to read more!!!

LOL, I am always late too!! lol Aw, thanks lady!!

Aw, thank you, that is so sweet of you! :)

Aw, thank you! It sure does! I think I get excited planning her outfits for each day. She told me that morning, "Mom I just want to wear my Alice shirt! I will wear the dress later!" lol So I was glad there wasn't a meltdown as well!

It was really fun! We are wanting to do dinner next time. That place is just nice!

LOL...I took a ton of pictures! I remember the first year I went (1994) oh my gosh, I couldn't believe how beautiful all the dancers were!! So it has always been a favorite of mine!
 
We got back to our hotel and rested a bit. It was time to get ready so we all changed clothes and I got Hollie ready for her first luau!! She was so excited! Here she is walking to the car!
IMG_1593.jpg

Walking with Daddo
IMG_1594.jpg


Yay….we are here!!

IMG_1597.jpg

I have to take pictures every time we go inside the Poly. Have I told ya’ll today how much I LOVE THIS RESORT!!! Ha ha
IMG_1599.jpg

IMG_1601.jpg

Chad wanted to take a picture of me by the water. I am usually the picture taker so I obliged!
IMG_1603.jpg

We had decided we were gonna go sit at the Tambu Lounge until we could check in. We got Hollie one of the Tinkerbell light-up drinks. Now, this is where Ms. Hollie-also-known-as-a-actress steps in!
IMG_1604.jpg

I decided I wanted to order the Malibu Macaw. Its just a good fruity drink. I like fruit, no I love it! So if a drink is all fruity I am all for it!
IMG_1606.jpg


Chad decided to get his backscratcher again! Now, we are not big drinkers period, so this would be Chad’s only drink of the night.
IMG_1605.jpg

IMG_1608.jpg

So, I am enjoying my drink. Chad wanted to taste it so I gave it to him to taste. As I start to hand it to him….I see it!! Oh my word, I see it! Then I start to think, “Oh my gosh…I drank some of this!!!” in my drink was…are you ready for it!! Okay, here it is….it was….A FLY!!!!!! Now, we are fans of Everybody Loves Raymond. Now, if you have ever seen it, you might be familiar with an episode where Robert dates a girl who eats flies! I know, gross!! But, in the episode Raymond is trying to tell Debra about seeing Roberts girlfriend eat a fly. I can’t even type it to how funny it is. So, here is a video of the part in the show. The whole thing is funny, but how Hollie says it, it is about 2:54 with how she says it!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4xiddz1T7E


Well, Hollie is standing there watching as Chad takes the glass back up to the bar. Our waiter sees this and grabs it from him. Then he comes back to the table and explains to me how that they use fresh fruit and they just installed some new fan near the fruit and apparently it didn’t catch this fly. I told him it was okay, I understood! So he gave me a new drink on the house! Well, Hollie looks at him and starts saying just like on the ELR show, “My mom brought the drink up to her mouth, she started to drink some and then she saw the fly…then SHE ATE IT!!!!” lol Now of course, I didn’t eat it but she was mocking the episode about the fly! Ha ha Gotta love my little actress!

:lmao::lmao:Love that episode of Raymond! Couldn't help but laugh at this post! Too funny.

Hollie looks adorable for the luau! Can't wait to see how you liked it.
 
I love Hollie's Lilo and Stitch dress! Where did you get it from?

Also laughed out loud at the fly incident!! :rotfl: Looking forward to reading about the show.
 
Miss Hollie is adorable in her Lilo outfit.

The pictures in front of the waterfall are great. You should frame the one of you and Hollie.

We will miss you tomorrow at the Dis meet, but have a wonderful time at the lake. May it be filled with family fun and memories.
