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

So, we were still enjoying our food when they started the show. Here are some pictures of the cast

Those two on the right of the stage...now they were some characters! lol Everytime I would take a picture they would look at me and click their fingers like they were taking pictures and then point at themselves! lol

They called for any kids who wanted to learn to hula dance to come on up! I didn't even have to push Hollie in order for her to do it! lol

Heather I'm behind yet again! Catching up now...

Love all the sweet character shots! Your girls are going to be Disney World pros for sure!

That slipper dessert is so elegant looking! I can definitely see my three girls squealing with delight if I were to surprise them with it. What a fun treat for Hollie!

The Luau looks like a blast! We're planning to do that our next trip with the in-laws. It really looks fun. I love that Hollie just went right on up there to learn the hula, so sweet.

All the family pics you captured are so adorable! It looks like you made some wonderful memories this trip, apart from the refillable mug lid debate! So weird!

For the record, I didn't even notice you flipped your days around!:laughing: I guess I'm not that observant, huh? It's soooo easy to mix up the days when you get back home from vacation. I'm trying to be better about that and have decided to journal while there so I can keep it straight!:laughing:

Looking forward to the next update girl!:goodvibes
 


My sweet girl!

Eyeing the desserts

Chad took this. He says I am always behind the camera so he wanted to take my picture! lol

IMG_1679.jpg


On to the show! Now I have a ton of pictures so I will post the good ones and maybe comment just a little

IMG_1682.jpg

This should tell you how much Hollie loved this show! This is how she sat the entire time once it started!

This is the guy who if you see the leaf, your supposed to pick it up and bring it to him as a means of friendship. He pointed at Chad to get it. He actually had to tell him like 5 times to where the last time he was like, "AHEM, pick it up!!!" ha ha It got a laugh from everyone!

IMG_1706.jpg


One of my favorite dances!

The show was over, and we loved it as always! I know that sometimes different places get bad reviews, but we have never had a bad time at the luau. We have always loved it! Disney is all about entertainment and this does entertain. Of course, it isn't the show they have always had there, but its still good!







 

Now, we took a few pictures before we left.

Hollie holding the leaf acting like she is in the show

and posing

Chad and I used to walk to the wedding pavilion and take pictures around there. We love the walk from the Poly to there. But Hollie didn't want to go that far! ha ha

IMG_1777.jpg


IMG_1778.jpg



We went home after this and got ready for our, ahem, Universal day. Lol Okay, my next update will be my Tuesday, day 2 Epcot day. Ugh, I still can't believe I switched them! haha

Also its the day I ran into a complete hag with a very un-disney attitude!! yuck!



 
Heather I'm behind yet again! Catching up now...

Aww, I know how that is!! ha ha

Love all the sweet character shots! Your girls are going to be Disney World pros for sure!

Aw, thanks girl!!! I sure hope they are!! ;)



That slipper dessert is so elegant looking! I can definitely see my three girls squealing with delight if I were to surprise them with it. What a fun treat for Hollie!
It really is!! Hollie thought it was the neatest thing ever! She wanted to just keep it! ha ha


The Luau looks like a blast! We're planning to do that our next trip with the in-laws. It really looks fun. I love that Hollie just went right on up there to learn the hula, so sweet.

It really is! We have always enjoyed it! Oh good, I think you will love it!! You don't really have to twist her arm for some things! ha ha


All the family pics you captured are so adorable! It looks like you made some wonderful memories this trip, apart from the refillable mug lid debate! So weird!

Aw, thank you so much! I wasn't too happy with my smaller camera. I need a new one!! ha ha I love the one my parents bought me but it can be on the bulky side sometimes.
Oh gosh, that darn lid!! I mean, really! You could see her lipstick stain on the red top!! Eww!! I just ended up giving Hollie my cup and then I washed the other one. So ridiculous! lol

For the record, I didn't even notice you flipped your days around!:laughing: I guess I'm not that observant, huh? It's soooo easy to mix up the days when you get back home from vacation. I'm trying to be better about that and have decided to journal while there so I can keep it straight!:laughing:

Looking forward to the next update girl!:goodvibes

Oh good!! ha ha Well, I am not very observant either! I started to wonder after Chad started talking about how MIL ignored him that whole day at Universal. I mean, she was in a good mood on days 1-4, but come 5-7...lookout!!! ha ha
 
The luau looks like so much fun! That's great that Hollie got to go on stage and practice her hula! She had on a cute outfit.

Awww, MIL... you just got to love them. Too funny that she would talk to you but not her son. In our house, my mom gets ticked off with the least little thing DH does and she is mad for weeks. Actually, very rude to him. He just ignores it but eventually I have to say something. I am often glad that we live an hour away!

Can't wait to hear about the Hag at Epcot!
 
It really is! We have always enjoyed it! Oh good, I think you will love it!! You don't really have to twist her arm for some things! ha ha

She sounds exactly like my youngest! If there's any kind of audience participation, she runs her hiney up there lickety split! :laughing:

Aw, thank you so much! I wasn't too happy with my smaller camera. I need a new one!! ha ha I love the one my parents bought me but it can be on the bulky side sometimes.

I know what you mean...I got a DSLR last year and took it to Disney in January. It was soooo bulky and I found myself wishing I'd have brought my point and shoot camera instead.

Oh gosh, that darn lid!! I mean, really! You could see her lipstick stain on the red top!! Eww!! I just ended up giving Hollie my cup and then I washed the other one. So ridiculous! lol

:laughing: Unless Hollie was wearing heavy lipstick, I'd assume that it was your MIL's lid too! Duh. So the MIL chronicles continue. Just please tell me she kept her wallybangers covered!:laughing:

Oh good!! ha ha Well, I am not very observant either! I started to wonder after Chad started talking about how MIL ignored him that whole day at Universal. I mean, she was in a good mood on days 1-4, but come 5-7...lookout!!! ha ha

Ok, it's strange that she treated Chad that way too. Hmm, maybe it's menopause...:rolleyes1
 
The Lua looks like such a great time, I love the pics of Hollie dancing in the show..too cute!

Sorry to hear about the mess over the refillable mugs, hopefully that mood didn't last the entire trip.

I laughed when you said you mixed up your posts, that would totally be something I would do.

Can't wait to hear about Epcot:goodvibes
 
Wowza to the mug situation! :scared1:

I love all of your pictures of the luau! Hollie's custom is adorable!!!!

Looking forward to your Epcot day! :surfweb:
 
The luau looks like so much fun!! I love your pics of the fire spinning (twiring? dancing? :laughing:)

Hope everyone's mugs were straightened out for the rest of the trip! :laughing:
 
Cool! We are going to be at Pop from September 23-30 and then we are going to the HRH from September 30-October 2. We are going to the Halloween party on the 23rd (If they don't sell out before I get the tickets) or the 27th. That is so awesome that my Disney tutor will be there the same time I will. You should come over to the HRH and visit the pool with us.
 
The show looks like so much fun! Sounds like you all had a great time!

Hope the mug situation sorted itself out - can't believe it actually happened!
 
Heather, I am not even a mommy & that is totally something I would do! At least you have the "mommy brain" excuse! :rotfl:

The luau looks awesome, I love how interested Hollie is during it :goodvibes
 
I am speechless in regards to your MIL's attitude and the mug situation! Really? Like it makes that big of a difference what color she ended up with??? I really can't believe she switched the mugs! :rotfl2:

The luah looks so great! I love that Hollie learned to hula and Chad got to be a part of the show! :laughing:

She loves the stage!! ha ha Aw, thanks! I love etsy! ;)

HA HA Yes!! It used to be the other way around. I would get ignored or smarted off too, but now its towards him. I ask him if it hurts his feelings or upsets him and he is like, "I am used to it. After 35 years you just get used to it and don't let it bother you." So sad for him...


Ewww, that mean old hag!!

She sounds exactly like my youngest! If there's any kind of audience participation, she runs her hiney up there lickety split! :laughing:

Oh gosh, could you imagine them two together!!! ha ha



I know what you mean...I got a DSLR last year and took it to Disney in January. It was soooo bulky and I found myself wishing I'd have brought my point and shoot camera instead.
I love my kodak point and shoot but I think its about had it. All the pictures are starting to look bad on it when I take them. I really, really want the Nikon Coolpix L120



:laughing: Unless Hollie was wearing heavy lipstick, I'd assume that it was your MIL's lid too! Duh. So the MIL chronicles continue. Just please tell me she kept her wallybangers covered!:laughing:
ha ha I know, right! Like she took the whole mug, yellow handle and all! Its not surprising at all!
All I can say is thank you sweet Jesus for cooler weather!! ha ha She kept them pretty much covered!


Ok, it's strange that she treated Chad that way too. Hmm, maybe it's menopause...:rolleyes1

It really is. It used to be reversed, but now she gets mad about everything with him.

Can't wait to hear about Epcot:goodvibes

Aw, thank you! She loves that show! Which is why we had to book it for our girls only October trip! She just kept telling my mom how much fun it was. All she has to do is tell MawMaw and it happens!! ha ha

Ugh, well that was definitely the start of sour moods! haha

Oh gosh, if its something that can happen it will happen to me. I am still shaking my head about it!! ha ha

Wowza to the mug situation! :scared1:

I love all of your pictures of the luau! Hollie's custom is adorable!!!!

Looking forward to your Epcot day! :surfweb:

I know, it was just uncalled for! :headache:

Aw, thank you so much!! I was so glad when I found that custom on etsy. They are just so adorable! Then Hannah can wear them when she gets older! ha ha

The luau looks like so much fun!! I love your pics of the fire spinning (twiring? dancing? :laughing:)

Hope everyone's mugs were straightened out for the rest of the trip! :laughing:

Oh it was! Thank you so much! He is my favorite! Its so fun to see him spin that fire! ha ha

Well, lets just say Hollie was drinking out of my cup! ha ha Of course, I didn't mind though. :goodvibes

You and your flippity floppity hotel switches!! ha ha

We will be at Pop our whole trip. Then turning around 2 weeks later and going back! Whew!

The show looks like so much fun! Sounds like you all had a great time!

Hope the mug situation sorted itself out - can't believe it actually happened!

We had a perfectly great time! ha ha

Ugh, I can't believe it either. Well, when it comes to her YES I CAN!!! ha :rotfl:

Heather, I am not even a mommy & that is totally something I would do! At least you have the "mommy brain" excuse! :rotfl:

The luau looks awesome, I love how interested Hollie is during it :goodvibes

ha ha ha I think I will be able to use that forever! I have always said, I shot out half my brain with Hollie and the other half with Hannah!

I was really happy that she liked it. I was a little worried she might get antsy and want to get up and leave. But nope, she was mesmerized! ha ha

I am speechless in regards to your MIL's attitude and the mug situation! Really? Like it makes that big of a difference what color she ended up with??? I really can't believe she switched the mugs! :rotfl2:

The luah looks so great! I love that Hollie learned to hula and Chad got to be a part of the show! :laughing:

I know! I could go on and on all day about things and your mouth would just hang open the entire time! It was for spite is what we think, but oh well! I just usually shake my head and walk away.

She was doing the hula all night long! ha ha
 
The luau looks like much fun. I bet Hollie loved watching those dancers. I know Brooklynn would.

I think I read very recently that the fire guy (don't know if there is more than one, so maybe a fire guy) was badly burned.
 
You have the best Luau pictures I ahve seen. It does look like a lot of fun. I may have to give it a try in a future trip
 
Heather...I apologize...I'm WAY behind on your TR! :eek: But thanks to your links, I should be able to catch up quick! :goodvibes
 
Sorry, Heather! I just finally read your 2nd Luau update! And I'm so glad I did! I really needed that! I could hear them talking and singing and the music in every pic. It was great to see the performers I recognized.

Wow..I can't believe MIL! She just should've done everyone a favor and went back to the room if she was going to be like that all day.
