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

Whew! all caught up...sorry haven't been around in a bit...trying so hard to catch up on threads I've been trying to at least do two when I do sit down to it.

sounds like a great first day at Epcot! I love the picture of Cooper sleeping when you sat down at the table at Coral (sad to think he [and Ashton] will be to big before long to do that); food looks delish, I heard the blackened fish is really good there. Sorry to hear you missed the dis meet; but, I'm sure everyone understood, what a long day you guys had.

The Villa! OMG! how awesome is that!!! I wish Danny loved Disney as much as me and we could up grade to annual visits as DVC! but that will NEVER happen....

I could not help but laugh when you made the comment about the water and Sam...I would have been sitting there telling him "I'm going to laugh when it sprays you".

Sorry, to hear Cooper is having such a hard time with school, I really hope things settle down for him and it becomes a fun experience for him soon. And Randy too! can't imagine having to deal with your "options" class, Tangi parish finally opened a few years ago a PM school for the kids like that; Dayne also told me they were starting to work with kids like that with the Tech Center this year---GOOD LUCK!

Hope the school year is a smooth one for all you guys! and a fun one...

BUSY....I know I am being a slacker lately. I just haven't had time lately. I'll make a concerted effort to come on here more often Randy.
 
Oh, that is so hard when your children are being picked on. As a parent, you want to protect them and be there to fight their battles (or at least I do). So glad that you talked to him and he was able to resolve the issue quickly!

I know. It was so tought to try not to fight this battle for him, but he lucked out. The teacher heard it the very next day, and they have stopped since then. He no longer cries to go to school everyday. He has discovered that it is a pretty coll place and is okay with school now.;)
 
Take your time on getting back on the Dis. We'll be here.

I am sorry to hear that Cooper is having a hard time. Hopefully, those bullies will leave him alone so he can enjoy school.

Thanks Lisa! I am back on now, so hopelfully I am here to stay. I feel so out of the loop right now.

No problem Connie! I haven't been on here enough lately. I may have lost all my readers in the process of being busy lately. Oh well...I'll keep going.

Thanks Connie! We had a great time at Epcot that day. Dinner was delicious. That is not the last time that you will see Cooper sleeping through dinner.

We love our villa as well. The 1BR is what sold Bryan on DVC.

I kept hoping he would get sprayed, but that sadly that did not happen. Maybe another time...

Cooper is having a much better time with school right now. No more name calling, and he comes home everyday to tell me about all of his new friends.

Thanks COnnie! My school year is going well, but it is certainly keeping me busy.
 
Where I left off earlier this month....so sorry...., we left Epcot and checked out our room at Kidani. We had such a wonderful nights sleep. We were all so tired from waking up so early that morning. We got up easily to get our selves ready for our day at DHS for SWW. As always, I got myself up and ready, woke Bryan to get the boys up and fed, and walked over to Jambo House to get my wonderful chocolate chip croissant. I was there and back in no time. We all ate breakfast on the balcony to check out our breakfast friends.

We even said hello to our neighbors. SOnny, Stacey, and the girls had the 1BR directly next door!

Cooper enjoys checking out the animals before he gets ready as well.

Before we knew it, we were ready to go and at the bus stop. After Bryan's experiment of no bag in the parks and me holding all of their stuff, I DEMANDED that the bag come with us today.

We were at the bus stop by 7:30, and the wait was extremely short. Before we knew it, we were on our way and on the bus alone.

We finally made it to DHS and the boys were ready to check everything out for SWW.

We were through the turnstiles and at the rope in no time and positioned ourselves all the way to the right where they unhook the rope. Our mission was to get to TSM right away. My little family of 4 were the only ones in the group that had ridden it before, so we really wanted to get there first.

Maegan and I were designated as the FP runners. We were guests 1 & 2 at the FP machines even though some woman tried to push me down to the ground. Everyone LOVED TSM as always.

This year is a bit different than last though. Last year, we worried less about the attraction and more about the SWW characters. Since we had others who don't come to the World as often, we had to make sure we also got quite a bit of attractions in there. Bryan was cool with that as long as he could spend quite a bit of time checking out the SWW gift shop. That was Bryan's plan for stop #2 after TSM.

Up next, how long did we actually end up staying in there?
 
Ahhhh, breakfast on the balcony at AKV....that will be me in December!

Wow...Fastpass guests 1 and 2? You guys are really serious rope droppers! :thumbsup2

Did you go in the standby line after getting FP's? I've never gotten to see Mr. Potato Head because I always have a FP and have never used the standby line.
 
What a beautiful view to have during breakfast :thumbsup2 :goodvibes. We didn't make it to DHS on SWW. We just don't seem to spend much time at DHS any more :confused3.
 
Sonny looked really content, AKV savanna is awesome! Love the intro to SWW.. the troopers are hilarious, Zach loves it!!! Ah yes, the "walk sprint" to TSM is always fun! Looked like a wonderful day!
 
Yay, an update! Breakfast on your balcony to watch the animals sounds amazing. :goodvibes I love that about AKL.

Wow, that is crazy you were 1 and 2 at the FP line! Nice!
 
I hope there continues to be no more name calling! Ah, that view, can't wait until Dec!! I cannot believe how rude and pushy people get at the TSM FP line. It is a fun ride but seriously :confused3
 
I was thinking about whether or not I could use just my Lesportsac bag when I go back for a Disneymoon. I don't know if I'd feel more secure having a backpack to fit more, but of course, who likes lugging around a bag around the park!

My eyes widened when I read that a woman tried pushing you to the grown for TSM FP. Um, people have GOT to calm down! Haha, I mean, it's not life or death!

TSM or death!!!! :rotfl2:
 
I agree with the others.......what a beautiful view to have while eating breakfast!

I am anxious to hear how Star Wars Weekends went for you. This was our first time to visit during SWW and Hunter loved it!
