Hey all!!! MORNING!!!!
I am sitting here listening to the power blowers & trimmers outside at fricken 8 am....enough already!!! My kids are still sleeping.
Mandy! I think meeting you was the highlight of their trip...probably was and will be.

Jojo asked me last night before bed if we were going to see you all again....

So, if you want to come to WDW again let me know!!!
We are having a nice time but it IS CROWDED....unbelievably so. We went over to Epcot Sat night after a yummy dinner at B & C....we sat at the counter and watched them make No Way Joses and Kitchen Sinks....and then the lady that made our No Way Jose totally skimped on the pb and hot fudge.

Jo and I split it and we were ready to ask for more sauce but we got full anyway. Then we went to Epcot and did a few things but it was a SEA ofpeople....I just held my camera up and took shots of the mega heads in the crowds. NOT FUN - that was WS at F & WF...so we headed to Future World and just did a couple things because crowds were still large over that way. ugh. We went back to watch Camp ROck on the YC beach ....til it rained.

We walked over to the Swan and called it an early night. Things weren't going our way....they usually don't that first night. I dropped my camera. I broke something......it doesn't zoom and focus like ti should. So I am so sad. Jojo left a 6 DVD boxed set on the plane....even aFTER I SAID PUT THAT SET IN YOUR BACKPACK.....

We had a few other stupid incidents.....Figured TIME FOR BED and start fresh on Sunday.
Sunday we got up early and went to MK and it was BEAUTIFUL. We ate cinnamon buns on main street while watching the trolley singers.....they have really yummy yogurt parfaits with fruit and oats there, too. YUM!!!
Then we went to Tom Sawyer Island...believe it or not....because Jojo wanted to...so we spent our first hour out there using up the uncrowded park time.

But she did have fun! Then we rafted back, won dream ears, and got on BTM with our FPs. AFter that...we roamed around. They didn't want FPs....just wanted to roam. Watched the castle show....shhopped....did Pooh Bear...where this CM crammed the three of us in row one....

I said LOOK AT MY BUTT...(well not really but I wanted to

) because I thought she was KIDDING...I laughed and said Hey, can't we have two rows...we'll be squished and she basically said SHUT Up and get into row one.

OMG...that was after our pissy CM on BTM that wanted to split us up in differnt train cars...He's says I CAN GUARANTEE you the SAME TRAIN BUT NOT THE SAME CAR....

Nope...aint flying bud. I am there with my two kids we are riding in the SAME car. WTH? So we just did it anyway. What are these peeps thinking??
Then we had lunch at the plaza....good as always but no German potato salad anymore!!

That is what we always look forward to....somethig good and fresh vs. the fries....ugh. These menu changes stink.
After Plaza we shopped a bit....Jojo picked out a Polly Pocket Prince to date all her other princesses....(he has all the Prince outfits.

so he's a player) and he broke already. Glad I saved the receipt....they will exchange I know that for sure. Done it before.
Then we boated over to GF to visit and had a nice chat. That's where we met Mandy!!!!! PS...
Mandy, DH said he was calling all day dnd even left me a message but it's NOT on my phone!!! NO calls and NO message!!! He wound up calling me at 11:30 at night and woke me up!

I am cell phone challenged. I feel really bad bcause I did not get Mandy's calls or hear my stupid phone ring.

We met up by LUCK!

And poor Mandy's efforts.
We had a lot of fun with Mandy and her sister and her darling dolly girls. OMG. they are precious and soooo sweet. Mandy and her sister are as nice as can be.
By the end of the day Jojo's feet hurt bad and Lucy was wiped out. It was a lot of fun though. I can't believe they are still sleeping though!!! That yard work outside was noisy.
We are probably going to DHS and then Epcot today...and they want to hang out on th BW this eve. Anoterh long day so better they sleep in. I like it better when we go late and stay late. That fits our schedules better.
Michelle!!! I saw you posted on teh GF Faq!! I knew you all were going but I forgot you were going BEFORE Us, too!!!! Hope you had fun! Lucy said Brenna said she really likes the F & W F....maybe today won't be as crowded and we can say we like it too.

Sat night was PACKED....
OK...by the Go Red Sox and Mandy's post...not sure who won last night.
The Swan is nice. I have a room next to a room I had last May...we have a tree view but it's upgraded from the standard and has a blacony and looks out on the water and BWI.
TTYL...I'll be here...my girls are sound asleep!
