Hey Mom, Check out my new Spider-Man move! (Last day & Final Thoughts - 1/10)

[BelleTinkMom]

I have to tell you something. The Hashbrown casserole at Cracker Barrell is awesome. We stopped and ate at the one in Hammond on our way back from camping today, and I thought of you and decided to try it. Very good.

Smart boy that Cooper! He had the right idea buying a misting fan. We were there right before you guys and it was hot as heck!

I'm not so sure I would have waited 30 minutes just to ride in a clamshell either. Can you believe that I've never even thought about slipping into The Seas via the gift store?

 

[leamom2princesses]

Josie doesn't mind missing bigger rides because she usually gets to do a little shopping as well. How smart of Cooper to buy the fan...it was pretty hot that week so I'm sure it was put to use.

We wouldn't wait 30 minutes for the clamshells either. We love Turtle Talk though. It's always fun.

Love the update.. we haven't done Crush in a good while.. and we missed SE this trip as well, Alisa says that we were "rushed" more than normal due to trying to entertain our family.. I know what her plan is.. to try and get me to break and let you girls have an all-girls trip... NOT GONNA HAPPEN... No way I'm missing a trip to Disney... no way!!!

See ya tonight!!!

I think Randy should definately let us go on a Girls Trip!!! If u add up all the Guys Movie Nights, where we had to stay at home with the kids, they actually owe us about a years worth of Girls Trips. He could live without one Disney trip--it won't kill him. Besides it wouldn't be like he was missing a "Family" trip--we'd be doing all those girly things we never get to do. Come on Ran---its soooo hard being the only female in the house!!! At least Megan has a girl dog--Hi Daisy---I don't even have that!!!

Kids love mister fans! Our had to stop at every cart for a little misting!

Good call on skipping that 30 min. clam ride! We always do it on EMH when there is no line whatsoever...and we have to run to keep up with the kids who are just running through that empty queue...

Sweetheart, it's only about 9 months away... it will be here before you know it!!! It could be worse....

Cooper seems like a smart kid - picking out a mister fan! He's wise beyond his years.

I love watching the manatees get fed!

Yeah, it seems smart to get them. The problem is that he NEVER sprays himself. He sprays everyone and everything else in sight.

Manatees are so cool. I coud watch them for so long.

 

[Brave teacher]

Oh MAN! I saved your trip report link in my favorites list, but I never came back to it! So stinky me for being behind but it's also rather exciting because I have a lot to read in one sitting!

Ouch, the jaw story made me cringe! I guess there's always that silver lining though!

Haha, what an AWESOME addition to have Darth Vader's voice! Weird would absolutely LOVE that! I think I'd be a little creeped out by it if he had it on and I were just waking up from a nap. At the beginning, I'd be so thrown off by it!

We have the same rule in the car. Everyone MUST go to the bathroom even if you don't THINK or FEEL like you have to go! But I too have a fairly small bladder, and since I drink a lot of water for my medication, I'm always worried about stopping and slowing everyone down!

Boo to the 2 hour Red Lobster dinner! Those are the most frustrating experiences. I wouldn't want to have such a long dinner even if we weren't on a road trip. I'd be anxious the entire time and frustrated too! And to not even enjoy the dinner made it even worse. Thankfully you were less than 24 hours away from Disney!

I don't think it's bad that you wanted the hash brown casserole for yourself. My mom, for the most part, gives everything to us kids. I appreciated it but felt bad at the same time. It always got me thinking if I would do that. And yes, there are some things I'll be willing to share. I give up some things to Matt, and he's my brother, so I'm sure I'd be even more willing with my own kid. But then I sometimes have things that I just do NOT want to share. Haha, I'd have to order another plate or another drink for my kids! We deserve to have the best of things once in a while too! Haha, wait, that's funny ... I said "we" as if I were already a mom. Whoops!

Love the Epcot updates! I should really get moving on mine!

I secretly like to get behind on some PTRs and TRs on purpose so that there is a lot to read to at once. It's fun sometimes.

The Vader voice is cool. I expect nothing less being the only girl in my house. I will continuously have these cool guy things going on in my life. They don't bother me.

It seems like everyone has the potty rule for long trips. It's so annoying to stop 50 times on a road trip.

2 hours at Red Lobster=So annoying!

Thanks for understanding the selfishness with my hash brown casserole. I feel bad, but then I just can't stop myself.

Thanks! I need to get moving on mine as well.

 

[Brave teacher]

Poor Cooper. I hope he makes it on some other "big kid" rides. Yay for Turtle Talk!

More on that later. Turtle Talk is just so cute. I love it.

 

[Brave teacher]

I love those mister fans! We bought 2 for $14 on our trip and they fit very well in my bag. Now we bring them everywhere with us in the summer.

Yeah, they're nice to have.

 

[Brave teacher]

You know I'm just kidding!!!!!

But seriously, it is better to just use your regular Visa..that is what we plan to continue to do...

Love the update.. we haven't done Crush in a good while.. and we missed SE this trip as well, Alisa says that we were "rushed" more than normal due to trying to entertain our family.. I know what her plan is.. to try and get me to break and let you girls have an all-girls trip... NOT GONNA HAPPEN... No way I'm missing a trip to Disney... no way!!!

See ya tonight!!!

I know, but sometimes you need reminders about conversations.

I know. It was just a thought, like I told you.

Yeah, we have had conversations on our thoughts from the trip. We felt rushed as well. We stayed at the parks longer than normal ande sadly, spent less time at the villa.

GIVE ME MY GIRLS TRIP!!!!!!!!!! We need princess stuff to do. There are certain things we cannot enjoy when we are surrounded by just guys. Get over the fact that you aren't there. We have already said yall can have a guys trip.

 

[Brave teacher]

You have made it to Disney! I get excited when I see the signs going into the world, even when they are in someone else's TR! I just love it.

So glad you got your room requests filled. Isn't that wonderful??? And you guys made good time getting into Epcot. So sorry Cooper could not ride TT. He seemed happy enough in the pictures, afterward, so that made me feel a little better for him. So glad you enjoyed Crush. He's always great, isn't he???

Looking forward to more of your adventures.

I get so anxious as we get closer. I know when it's coming, and I can hardly contain myself.

Love getting the requests! It gives me little bit of happiness. He was so upset at first, but Bryan said Cooper got happier as they walked through Mousegears.

I'll get around to another update sooner or later.

 

[Brave teacher]

That's so cute that Cooper chose a mister of all things! But I know my nephew really enjoyed the one we had and it kept him busy for a long time.

30-40 mins for Nemo and friends is pretty crazy. Isn't it a continuously moving ride? I wonder why it takes that long.

I just found it so funny that he chose th fan out of everything in that store. I couldn't believe it.

Yep...continuously moving...which is why I was so confused when I saw the line outside of the building.

 

[Brave teacher]

Awww, poor Cooper---That stinks about him not getting to ride TT. Of course, the miste-fan seemed to really help his spirits!

I know. I felt so bad for him. The sadness stayed for just a little while though.

 

[Brave teacher]

I have to tell you something. The Hashbrown casserole at Cracker Barrell is awesome. We stopped and ate at the one in Hammond on our way back from camping today, and I thought of you and decided to try it. Very good.

AWWWW...Thanks for thinking of me. Glad you enjoyed it!

 

[Brave teacher]

Smart boy that Cooper! He had the right idea buying a misting fan. We were there right before you guys and it was hot as heck!

I'm not so sure I would have waited 30 minutes just to ride in a clamshell either. Can you believe that I've never even thought about slipping into The Seas via the gift store?

He surprises me sometimes. It was hot, but we are used to hot. South Louisiana is just as brutal in the summer as central FL. I think yall actually arrived later in the week after us. We got there on the 22nd.

Bryan hadn't thought of it either. He told me we were going to skip it because he wasn't waiting in line that long. When I told him we could skip it and go through the gift shop, he gave me this look like "duh, why didn't I thingk of that?".

 

[Brave teacher]

Josie doesn't mind missing bigger rides because she usually gets to do a little shopping as well. How smart of Cooper to buy the fan...it was pretty hot that week so I'm sure it was put to use.

We wouldn't wait 30 minutes for the clamshells either. We love Turtle Talk though. It's always fun.

Cooper normally doesn't mind, but this time he was hoping to get on TT. It was hot, but it could have been worse. He doesn't use the fan to cool himself off. He uses it to spray water everywhere else.

30 minutes was way too long for the clammobiles.

 

[Brave teacher]

I think Randy should definately let us go on a Girls Trip!!! If u add up all the Guys Movie Nights, where we had to stay at home with the kids, they actually owe us about a years worth of Girls Trips. He could live without one Disney trip--it won't kill him. Besides it wouldn't be like he was missing a "Family" trip--we'd be doing all those girly things we never get to do. Come on Ran---its soooo hard being the only female in the house!!! At least Megan has a girl dog--Hi Daisy---I don't even have that!!!

You know I am with you one this one. Bryan is cool with us going. We are just waiting on the hold out to get over it. They do so much without us. The least he could do is give us the trip after having at least 10 years worth of their get togethers without us.

It really is tough being the only girls in the house.

 

[Brave teacher]

Kids love mister fans! Our had to stop at every cart for a little misting!

Good call on skipping that 30 min. clam ride! We always do it on EMH when there is no line whatsoever...and we have to run to keep up with the kids who are just running through that empty queue...

LOL...they sure do love the misters throughout the parks.

We'll do it another time when the wait isn't so long. We normally do them when there is not much of a wait...queue is normally empty as well.

 

[Brave teacher]

Sweetheart, it's only about 9 months away... it will be here before you know it!!! It could be worse....

I know it could be worse, and it has nothing to do with how long she or I have to wait to go on the next trip. It has to do with being able to enjoy things differently. Boys do and like things differently than girls. If I told the boys we were having dinner at 1900 Paark Fare with Cinderella, Prince CHarming, Lady Tremaine, and the stepsisters, they would complain the entire time. We can't do those things with yall there. We want to do things in our way. We want our Disney fill of everything for girls.
