Heat, Headaches but So Much Fun! My June Birthday TR (Trip Wrap-Up 10/12)

Meghan, lovin' that report!!! Madison looked so cute with her characters...I loooove the Incredibles!! I always get tickled when they are at the dinner table at the beginning of the movie...that is soooo me and Mike! Ha!! We did the Sci-Fi when the kids were younger... they didn't like it, so we haven't been back over there. I loved the pictures from the Streets of America..too cute!!!!
 
We were in that line for TSM when you went back to check the wait time! I know we were because it was starting to rain and I was hoping we'd make it into the building before it did. The wait time was seriously only 40 minutes and it went by so fast because there's so much to look at in line! They weren't weaving at all in the building, so that's why it went all the way outside!
 
Looks like you had a great first day! I love the Sci- Fi and that burger is so good I usually eat the whole thing pretty much! (I'm also full for the next day and 1/2 LOL) I cannot BELIEVE they didn't put a candle on your cake though!!! It must've been a mistake....:sad2:
 
Sounds like a great birthday! I'm sorry they didn't bring you a cupcake, was it on your reservation? I had Danielle's birthday on all our reservations but had to say something for it to be noticed by the waiter.

We caught a few character there too. But Danielle wasn't really into them, Bailey on the other hand wanted to meet them all since it was her first trip.
 

Hey Meghan!
Great update!! And I'm so happy to hear that Madison is doing so much better, I've been thinking of her!!

You got some great pics from your 1st day, I especially love the one of you and Madison and the umbrella and the one of you and her in the car waiting to order dinner at Sci-Fi, her smile is so contagious with the missing tooth!!!:cutie: Sorry to hear you didn't get birthday wishes from Sci-Fi that must have been an overlook!!:confused3 But the dessert looked delish!! YUM! So glad I had lunch already or I would be starving right about now!! ;)

Looking forward to hearing more!!:yay:
 
Hi Meg,
Yes, I am trying to catch up here on the Dis.
So gald you got your picture taken under the umbrella. Mine was not a legal picture. I have to get back again, and do it legally. We are going on a cruise in Aug this year. Cant wait!

Good laugh!

I'd love to take a cruise someday. It's on my wish list. Thanks for the link!

WOW!! :thumbsup2 Awesome chapter Meghan! :goodvibes Sounds like you had a GREAT birthday! :banana: You and Maddie have the most incredible eyes! They are just so beautiful! :hug: I hope your sweet girl is feeling better! :flower3:

Aw, thanks! Tony's glad she got my eyes because he thinks his are boring. I personally don't think that brown eyes are boring. I think all eyes are beautiful! Madison is wonderful now.

Sounds like you had an awesome day at HS on your birthday! We also visited the characters at the Animators Studio the day we were there. The photopass guy took a picture of just me with Dug! He was so cute. We actually waited in that line twice because the first time we did it was just Carl and Dug and then we saw Russell so after a little bit we went back into the line.

They were the cutest characters! I can't wait to get my photopass cd to show everyone my other pics.

Can't wait to hear what you got with your Birthday Fun Card! I'm going to be down for my bday in September and I'm already considering the possibilities :cool2:

Glad to hear that Madison's bites are looking better :hug:

How was the Taste of Buffalo this year? This is the first year we didn't head down there in a long time, maybe ever, now that I think about it...

Keep those updates coming!

The Taste was very good, as usual. We tried a few new things and they were great.

great update! the sci-fi review was awesome...i can't wait to eat there! i always love it there. The atmosphere is so fun...and i'm thinking of trying the oreo milkshake now...remind me, were you on a dining plan?

We were on the DDP. You can get a milkshake as your drink and I highly recommend it! So delicious.

I am loving your TR!! Your food looks yummy!! I can't wait to try Sci Fi in September! I will probably be getting those ribs! (insert drooling smiley)!

I LOVED all your character pics!! How long do you think the UP characters will be there? I heard that Bolt is already done and may not be back. :confused3 I fricken LOVE Bolt and Rhino!! lol...but I also love Carl, Russell and Dug. And of course Kevin in the background! :goodvibes So I hope they're at least stil there!!

Can't wait to hear more!!

Those food pics always make me so hungry. The UP characters are where I think Bolt used to be. It seems to be where the latest movie characters are at.

I'm joining in too! Great start!
One of these days I'll find the time to start our trip report! We are still recovering from the Disney illnesses too!

Thanks for reading! Hope you feel better soon.

I too love the Incredibles. It's such an awesome movie with great characters.

No way!!! From the view we had outside, that long looked SO long! I guess we should have gotten in line afterall. But, we were really tired from our very long day. I love the TSMM queue. I totally makes the time go by quickly.

Looks like you had a great first day! I love the Sci- Fi and that burger is so good I usually eat the whole thing pretty much! (I'm also full for the next day and 1/2 LOL) I cannot BELIEVE they didn't put a candle on your cake though!!! It must've been a mistake....:sad2:

We had an amazing first day! I'll get to the birthday candle thing in a second.

My birthday was on every ressie we had (I made sure it was!).

I had my heart set on getting that umbrella pic. We even had to wait in a little line to get it! All the kids were fascinated by the "rain" that would come down! The dessert was amazingly delish!

Joining in the fun!!!

Thanks for reading!!!

Ok, about the birthday candle thing. I failed to mention something. When the CM came over with my dessert, he said happy birthday but said he spared me from singing happy birthday and a candle and all that. I said it was ok, but deep down, I wasn't ok with it. I would have liked a candle since it was my actual birthday. But don't worry, you'll have to wait and see the other desserts I was given later in the trip!
 
What a great birthday! It sounds like you had fun. I love your pictures too. Such a cute family!

I thought of you yesterday as I was just doing my scrapbook from our January trip and put the picture of you and Madison with me and my girls in it. I had an umbrella picture too, but it technically was roped off (we cheated) so no rain!

Thanks! I thought of you too because I FINALLY ordered my pics from January from walmart.com. I wanted to wait until this trip was over so I could order them all together. I haven't even thought about scrapbooking yet, but I've bought so much stuff. I'm sure that I'll start it once I print out all of my photopass pics. I will be needing some serious help from my mom since I've never scrapbooked before!!!!
 
Oh it's so much fun - and addicting! My problem is that I buy all the "stuff" and it takes me forever to get a book together. I don't have a place I can leave it all set up and just go work on it. Lately I've been leaving a card table up in the family room because DH wanted me to hurry and do this book to take to show his sister (he gave me a month!).
I started doing books for my kids and one is up to age 3 and the other is at age 1. I keep stopping them to do vacation books or my parents' wedding pictures.

Okay, back to your TR! Can't wait to hear more!
 
What a great birthday!! I LOVE the pictures of you and Maddie and Tony and Maddie at Sci-Fi! :goodvibes So cute. Yeah...It is kinda funny how people think they can walk up without an ADR and expect to eat... :upsidedow

I have gone crazy buying scrapbooking stuff! I have a huge bag of papers and stickers in my closet. I bought a 2009 scrapbook on our January trip. I guess it's going to have a Part One and a Part Two in it!

It was such a great day. Tony felt a little strange taking a picture of his ribs and his dessert, but I didn't care. However, he did get bbq sauce on my camera strap! No big deal. People would walk away so mad about not being able to get a table. Even before the DDP, we had to wait an hour or more sometimes to eat at a table service restaurant. At least they take "reservations" now!

You scrapbook too!!! I'm addicted. I even have a room now that my oldest has moved out. My favorite thing to scrapbook is our Disney trips.

I've never scrapbooked, but I'm very interested in it. I don't really have a set space for it, but I'm sure I'll figure it out. My mom is very good at it, so I'll have a good teacher.

My older sister got me hooked and now that she's gone back to college she doesn't do it at all. It's a great outlet and I love saving those memories.

Not sure if this will work, but this is some of my pages from our 2002 Thanksgiving trip. I'm way behind in loading pages.
 
Meghan -- You should be dancing through Disney! I bet you and Madison could show us some great moves!

Oh, and awesome first full day! :woohoo:

Maria :upsidedow
 
ITA! That was such a cute fun video! I was wondering if they just kept singing that song throughout the trip to be able to edit it like that! DH and I were laughing out loud! Thanks Meghan!
 
You guys were at the POP at the same time we were!

We had barely sat down when I received a text message saying that our room was ready! No way! It had to be around 10:30am or so! So, off we went to check out our room (room 4463).
SCORE! That's awesome! We were shocked to find our rooms ready at our early check in as well.


Madison's favorite, the Hippy Dippy pool!
Our oldest daughter picked this resort based SOLELY on photos of the Hippy Dippy pool.

Again, right outside our door
Hey, that's our room! (Third floor, right between the two dancers.)

We had originally planned to stay for some EMH, but we changed our minds. It was beginning to lightly rain and we were pretty tired, so we called it a night.
We were at DHS for Extra Magic Hour that night. We happened to be in Voyage of the Little Mermaid during the rain so we missed it thankfully.

Looking forward to future installments!
 
What a great update!!! WOW! I can't believe how many characters you saw!! We totally missed the animation building and now I'm kicking myself for it! I just LOVE the Up character pics!! Soooo cute!! Ally's favorite is Russell! Glad to hear that you had a great birthday!! Can't wait to hear more!
