Heading back to Princess Josie's Castle-An AKV May 22-29 PTR-TR Started 6/3!

Hi Leanne,
I just discovered your Pre trip report :goodvibes. I have some reading to go back and catch up still. But I'm excited for you all staying at Poly this year. ADR'S look great too! deluxe dining might be a good choice for you this year. Wish we were going the same time but with school, preschool graduation and dance schedule May is not working for us :sad2:. I hope you get great weather this year and I look forward to reading all about your trip. Also would be great if you buy into DVC! We are also considering it again.

Hi Nichole! :yay: I'm so glad to have you! I wish you were coming again in May but I understand how busy that time of year is for you. How was your Anniversary trip? Are you doing a TR? I loved your wedding pics on FB. You and Tommy look so cute. :goodvibes

Thank you Leanne, your too sweet :goodvibes. We had a great time on our short trip. Hoping to start a pre trip report for our June trip soon. I love to have a place to discuss all things Disney with friends who also love Disney, know what I mean. I might even do a highlight of our Anniversary trip. Would love to go in May, hoping there is a way I can rework our crazy schedule. June is just so hot and more crowded.

I'm glad you had a good Anniversary trip Nichole. I know really deserved a break. I hope you can work it out for May. It would be awesome to meet up again. I'm trying to talk Tammy into coming that week also. :goodvibes
 
Here are a couple of short videos of our Christmas Lights.....we still have a few more decorations to put out but you get the idea...Joe took one video up close and one from a distance using his I-Phone. Make sure you have the volume up...that's one of my newest additions in the background. Hope you enjoy...




 
LOVE THE LIGHTS!!!Do you have them on a computer program? I think the dancing lights are awesome. I remember the first time I saw the video of the house that has the huge display. I had to get a new spiral tree for outside. Then one I had got smashed one night last week when a big gust of wind blew it over and busted the star on top. I got the 2 small ones Walmart has and have them on my porch.

I hope ya'll have/had fun at The Princess and the Frog. I can't wait to go see it. I read that it is #1 for this weekend.

I have a couple of the spiral trees. Joe put one outside but it isn't in it's spot just yet. We look like the Griswalds during Christmas. I love it! They aren't a computer program. We have a box that everything plugs into and we control the songs and how they blink or not. I love the Christmas music....good thing I have wonderful neighbors. :goodvibes

We loved Princess & the Frog. What a cute movie! The girls have been singing "you gotta dig a little deeper" all weekend. :)
 
Very cool display, girls loved the videos. We saw the movie yesterday too and then went and bought the CD at Target :)

The CD would be a great stocking stuffer for Lindsey...thanks for the idea! How did your girls do with the "shadow people"? Josie wasn't crazy about them. :lmao:

No problem :) Avery had lots of questions about "voodoo" and the "other world" Cayley has been afraid of her room. She insosts on sleeping with the light all the way on so there will be no shadows. Needless to say, the shadow people did not go over well :scared1::scared1:
 
Hi readers! Sorry in advance for not being around much on the weekends. My homework is due on Sundays (which is exactly when I turn it in) and holiday festivities have really been taking a lot of our time. We saw The Princess & The Frog Saturday after lunch with Joe's folks. What a great movie!

Yesterday was Joe's employer's Children's Christmas Party. This is such a nice event. They have oodles of cupcakes, cookies, and goldfish with lots of drinks. There is a magician which is followed by Santa. It's so fun to listen to the kids laugh and giggle.

Here are some pics of the family at the party...

Joe couldn't wait to wear this silly face mask and shirt ....

The picture of Joe is too funny. I love the mask :rotfl2:. The girls look so sweet in their Christmas dresses. They seem pretty happy with their Santa gifts. I can't believe Christmas is next week, this year has just flown by. Hope you have a great day at work tomorrow.
 
Hi! Leanne
wonderful family pictures...the girls are so beautiful in their Christmas dresses!!!
Love Joe's version of Santa :rotfl:
I think we may try to go and see The Princess and the Frog Thursday (maybe--we are going to Disney Live Friday and shopping tomorrow, library today...that just may have to wait until next week...and spread it out)... this should be interesting "shadow people" :confused3... maybe he won't notice?!?! voodoo being from New Orleans I would not have given that a second thought...but, I guess that can be scary and confusing...

Have a great one!
:santa: Connie
 
Gorgeous pics. Such beautiful dresses and girls in them!! Looks like a fun party!!
