I am enjoying your TR. Your girls will love the cruise. We have been on two and my now 16 year old ds says they were they best weeks of his whole life
We will also be on the June 2 cruise with you! Cruising with ds16, d8, and my whole extended family including my dbf.

We hadn’t taken a photo in front of the castle during the day yet, so off we went. We passed in front of the Christmas store first and came across this sled and the girls had to take a few pictures.

Then we brought Made to ride her favorite ride, the Tea Cups!!

Back to some of our favorites, Buzz Lightyear

cont on next post

and the Carousel of Progress.

When we were done on the Carousel of Progress, the DJ Dance Party was in Progress, so we hung around for a couple of songs. One just so happened to be Madi’s favorite Justin Beiber song Baby.

Then we took a relaxing ride on the People mover. It kept stopping. Space Mountain was also down because when we went through, the lights were on. I got these pics. It was so weird to see all the tracks. It makes me wonder about riding again.

We were ready to head back to the resort.

We had a late dinner at the resort. We all had Pizza except Jaden, she had Chicken Alfredo.

I realized that we had to check out our room before we headed out to our breakfast ADR so that we wouldn’t have to come back to the resort and then back to the parks.

Back in the room, I packed up all the suitcases. How does all our things fit so neat to go on vacation, but don’t fit so nice and neat to come home?

Looks like the girls were really having fun!

I hate having to re-pack everything! It's so much fun packing to go.

Just read the entire TR and what a Trip! I don't know how you did it with your in-laws. That would drive me nuts completely!

I like doing just the four of us for vacations as well.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I didn't forget about yall. I have been seriously under the weather. I did have another bout of migraines for about two weeks and then in South Louisiana we have Mardi Gras then last week I had strep throat. Last weekend, we had our annual Bourcherie-French for pig roast. I hope to get this TR finished this weekend and have some cruise info posted.

 

[amandaw]

Oh goodness! I sure hope you get to feeling better soon!

And just why wasn't I invited to the Bourcherie? Yummy!

 

[mommy2mb]

Feel better soon!

I have been feeling a whole lot better this week. When I saw my doctor last week, we talked about my migraine journal. It seems to be falling around my female cycle. She suggested that I speak to my OB about it. So that's what I did. I called him. He prescribed me harmone patches to use just around that time to help prevent the migraines. So, it's almost that time of the month and we will see what happens. Everyone at work doesn't seem to understand how I can stay at work when the migraine starts, well, I would be home for at least a week. I can't take off work a week a month. Wait, good excuse to go to Disney once a month!!!

Quick cruise update:

We are going to Disney World for a day and a half before our cruise. DH can get an employee discount at Omni hotels, because the company he works for and the Omni hotels are owned by the same person. He can make a reservation 90 days in advance. Well he called yesterday and guess what, there are no more employee rooms available. But they can give us a discount on a room at 179 a night! I can get a Disney value resort for cheaper than that. So that's what I did. I called today and booked a room at Pop for two nights and I even had a 20% discount code.

According to the current park hours, MK has evening EMH on the Friday evening til 1 am. So, I will make great use of this time, being I will only have 1 and 1/2 days there.

I do have some photos from Mardi Gras and camping weekends. I hopefully will post them this weekend. Jaden and I have plans with a friend of mine and her daughter to do some shopping this weekend. Jaden needs some summer clothes for the cruise.

I get bad migraines to so I sympathize with you. Hopefully the patches will help you during "that time of the month".

Yay for getting a room at Pop for two nights and with a discount at that. We weren't sure where we wanted to stay the night before our cruise and when I started pricing our hotels, I too realized that we could stay on Disney property for about the same price if not less.

Hope ya'll get some good deals on your shopping excursion this weekend! If ya'll have a Belk and/or Kohl's nearby check them out. I found some super cute clothes at both places a week or so ago and the prices were great.

I hope the hormone patch gives you some relief from the migraines.

We're thinking of doing another cruise next year. I was thinking we'd fly in the night before. When looking at this year's hotel prices for one night, I also found the values to very economical for a 1 or 2 night stay.

Have fun shopping!
