I Want to Sell Tee-Tee to Other People!!! - July 2013 TR *UPDATE 4/29 pg. 73*

[KatMark]

Awww....look at those precious boys with their new Duffy bears.

I'm sorry Joaquin got his head clunked, but glad he wasn't hurt badly (sometimes these "minor" accidents are the best things for them so they understand what we are trying to tell them).

What a GREAT character interaction at breakfast at Ohana. I just LOVE Pluto and what a fun time you all had with him. I love when a character gets really into it and mingles and plays with the guests. Best feeling ever!

I love the photopass pictures and your dad. Let's just say I him.

 

[Poolrat]

What a great anniversary present to have a day as a couple.


O'Hana breakfast looks like a great time. Yes Pluto was amazing.

I hope the boys keep up with their Duffys and a great day is enjoyed.

 

[RGirl]

Aww - I love that the boys liked their Duffies so much. I got one for Willow last time, but it never took. She is all about that Fuzzball Yeti and the Pluto pillow-pet.

‘Ohana sounds like it was great (Joaquin’s mishap aside). But I cannot believe you met an EPIC Pluto at the same place we were graced with THE THUG. I love the pic of Pluto eating Pop’s head!!!

Love the PP pics!!!

 

[ZehnJahren]

So far this day looks like a lot of fun. I've been waffling between AKL and Pop for about a month now, but then I see pictures of AKL and think "why am I not staying there again?" That's what your pictures did this morning. I'll still probably stay at Pop since I have to rely on the buses and they seem to just be better at Pop, but seeing AKL makes me double think it every time. How sweet those boys are with their Duffys!

Looks like 'Ohana was just about the best decision for breakfast. Pluto is my favorite pup and it looks like he was a ton of fun. That picture of him wearing Jason's hat and just walking around in 'Ohana made me laugh!

And of COURSE if you have the day with the nephews, you have to go to MK! I'm impressed that the boys loved their Duffys so much that they were willing to take them out in public with them and hold on to them, too! Though knowing kids, I have to wonder how long it took for them to pass on the Duffys to an adult...

 

[DVCWDWMEMBER]

Pluto was a lot of fun. We all had such a great time with him. I remember years ago when Pluto came creeping up on Vic and scared him. It was really a fun meal.

 

[IheartDDuck]

haha it's like he's saying: really? you think you're stronger than me? cute! lol

I think that's exactly what he's saying!

The who is stronger pictures are too cute! Love the last one! Can't wait for more updates!

Those were some of our favorite pictures of the trip.

Just for my own curiosity, did you omit to upload the photos, or did photobucket lose them?? Since I also use photobucket, inquiring minds need to know, lol

Aww the Ohana family photos are terrific especially with new members Duffy and Duffy.

Oh WOW, PLUTO rocked it!! I always respect the characters more when they actually take the time to interact with the adults too.

I'm pretty sure I forgot to upload them. I thought I did, but I'm pretty sure I had a brain fart.

Duffy and Duffy fit right in with the family.

I love it when characters interact with the adults! It's so much fun.

 

[IheartDDuck]

That interaction was down right hilarious!

Poor little guy, got bonked on the head.
It's hard for the little one's to stay in their seats when there is so much going on all around them.
I'm sure the atmosphere of everyone there having a good time and the characters made it even harder to stay in his seat.

On to y'alls day, this is going to be a good one.

It was an incredible interaction. I was so happy that we had that reservation.

I felt bad that Joaquin got jacked in the head, but at the same time, he was acting like a complete idiot!

Oh wow your breakfast sounded great, the interaction you received was so much fun

Loving the PP photos, it's lovely when the photographers get involved and try fun poses

It was a great breakfast.

The PP photographer was great. He really wanted to capitalize on having the boys there.

Oh those pictures of the boys with their Duffys, and that super adorable one of (Gavin? I think) sleeping with his Duffy! So so cute!
Breakfast looks like a delicious riot, I mean, besides poor Joaquin getting bumped, but that's how kids learn! Pluto made up for it anyway What an awesome character interaction there!
Great photopass pics too, especially with the boys showing off their muscles.

Yeah, that was Gavin sleeping with his Duffy. And he was knocked out completely.

Pluto definitely made up for everything with Joaquin.

They really loved their Duffy's! I was so surprised they loved them so much. They've even gone on road trips with them already.

He definitely wasn't hurt badly. More of a surprise that he got hit in the head. And I completely agree, those minor accidents are definitely ways for them to learn.

My Dad definitely takes the cake in most pictures. He's just a variable I can't control.

What a great anniversary present to have a day as a couple.

I really hope that the boys keep up with their Duffy's too. That it's not just a brief thing.

Kids are funny, aren't they? My niece racks me up all of the time, because there rare things I think she's going to like that I love, and she goes "meh". The boys are the same too.

We really lucked out with the Pluto.

AKL is so great, isn't it? I just love that resort.

I do agree though, the buses at POP are much better than most of the buses you encounter anywhere else.

Pluto was hilarious when he was walking around with Jason's hat. He wandered around the restaurant for a while with it. LOL.

Oh they attempted to pass them on to an adult. To which we firmly stated that they had to go in their backpacks.

Pluto was a lot of fun. We all had such a great time with him. I remember years ago when Pluto came creeping up on Vic and scared him. It was really a fun meal.

I will always remember that time with Vic. When the coffee came flying out of his nose......

 

[guinness408]

Ok I must say your Dad's faces in the pics in this TR are my favorite part! He seems like soooooo much fun! I love how much fun you guys have together. Your brother licking Pluto was hilarious. My daughter came into my bedroom to ask me why I was laughing so hard! The duffys were a big hit I see....great of you guys to take the boys for the day.

 

[DVCWDWMEMBER]

Yep it is imbedded into the brain permanently for sure. Too bad we don't have a picture of it.

 

[CarolynK]

That Pluto interaction was just awesome! What a special memory.

Your nephews are SO adorable with their Duffys!

Looks like fun times ahead with the boys....

His faces are pretty priceless, I have to say. It's constantly entertaining to have him around, that's for sure.

Just let your daughter know that pictures of people licking Pluto are generally pretty funny.

Yep it is imbedded into the brain permanently for sure. Too bad we don't have a picture of it.

It is too bad we don't have a picture of it. It was definitely one of those moments where a rolling camera would have been helpful.

That Pluto interaction was just awesome! What a special memory.

Your nephews are SO adorable with their Duffys!

Looks like fun times ahead with the boys....

They truly loved their Duffy's.

It was a fun day for sure.

 

[MEK]

Who doesn't love my Dad's face in this picture? I mean, come on! It never gets old with that man.



We had a great Photopass photographer. At this point, he wanted the boys to pose together. He needed them to show him who was stronger.





This picture wins for funniest of the day. The side-eye that Gavin is giving Joaquin? Just......amazing.



Up next: Let's take on the Magic Kingdom!!!! With crazy littles!!!

These pictures are ALL great! Your family definitely does take the greatest pics!

OMG "Man Down. Man Down" had me totally cracking up! I can't believe J got hit in the head with the water picture. Wait - then again - Yes I can. He's a boy and that's what they do!

And Goofy. How much fun is he? Everyone looks like they are having a blast!

 

[IheartDDuck]

They boys had just finished comparing their muscles on Main Street, and it was time for us to move on and start the day.

What better place to start the day then to head into Fantasyland, right?



Right away, when we walked through the castle, we met these lovely people. They were tons of fun, and were fascinated with the boy's Duffy's.

Joaquin of course had to make sure that Duffy was included in the photos.



It's totally adorable, isn't it? He couldn't get enough of his Duffy. A good decision for a purchase I think.

The boys noticed the Sword in the Stone, so I convinced them to try to pull it out. We all know how that ended. It didn't budge.





If you remember like, 10 years ago, when I started this TR, on one of our Magic Kingdom days, the boys absolutely loved the carousel. So of course, they asked to ride the carousel right away.

Woah, that's a Duffy in your face!



Gavin had his Duffy nicely packed away.



Ommi was excited, since she missed out on our first Carousel ride!



What a cheeseball! Clearly, he was having a good time.



After we finished our ride around the carousel, we figured that we would stop by Peter Pan. It was still early in the day, and the wait time hadn't shot up like crazy yet. We waited about 15 minutes, so I can't complain about that.



We were off to Neverland!



The boys really liked this. I was glad we were there so early to get it done.

What else had virtually no wait? Why that would be Winnie the Pooh!



I'm a huge fan of the interactive queues, especially when the lines are long. Although, it makes me wonder what on earth we did when there was nothing to entertain us in line.





Duffy is an expert photobomber.



This is another one of my favorite pictures of the trip. It's blurry, but you can see the sheer joy in Joaquin's face. The fascination and the fact that he's completely wrapped up in the ride? There's nothing better.



Hooray!



Already, we had a pretty productive morning. Three rides, and it was still pretty early?

Joaquin had a request at that point, so we figured we would honor it. What request was that?

Well, I mean...he is MY nephew.



Oh hey Buzz, don't look so confused!



What did I manage on this ride?



No big deal.



Ommi is super focused, and it completely looks like Joaquin wants to tell her something.



Pop is the Lone Ranger.



Continued in next post:

 

[IheartDDuck]

I had to make sure I collected my Galactic Hero button when we had our PP picture scanned to our card.

Joaquin had other things in mind. Apparently, Joaquin thought that Duffy wanted to get in Rex's mouth.



Yeah, that didn't seem to work out too well.



My Galactic Hero button firmly in hand, it was time to head back out into Tomorrowland. Where we decided we would be moved.



The Duffy's were out in full force.



See? Joaquin with Ommi. She's definitely his favorite.



Gavin considers himself to be my boy. Which is fine by me.



Oh, proof that I got my button!



Gavin absolutely adores the Peoplemover. But I mean come on...who doesn't love the Peoplemover!

Joaquin really wanted to go on Space Mountain. At that point, the line was a little on the long side, so we decided to grab some fastpasses for it. (That totally sounded weird, considering old school FP went the way of the Dodo bird).

FP's secured (for Poppy, Joaquin, and I), we decided to head to the Laugh Floor.



I'm not going to lie, I am desperate for my Dad to be "That Guy". I'm not lying, I tried this time to get us in a row that I thought would get us remotely close to him being "That Guy". It didn't work.

See? We were really close.



The boys thought that this show was the funniest thing that they had ever seen in their lives. It was definitely a hit with them. However, it would have been an even bigger hit had POPPY BEEN THAT GUY......not that I'm bitter or anything.

The Haunted Mansion was calling my name at this point. I wanted to ride it. I needed to ride it. And, I wanted to take a look at the new Tangled area and get some hidden Pascal pictures.



NOT a hidden Pascal.





The boys loved looking for Pascals!









I totally thought I found all of them, but I found out after the fact that I very obviously did not. A mission for my next trip I think.

The Haunted Mansion was still calling my name. As you can see, it was raining a little bit. We were fortunate, this was pretty much one of the only days that there was a hint of rain.





Gavin totally looks like he's either stroking the bust's face, or slapping it.



And that....would be as far as we made it in line for the Haunted Mansion. Because at that point, they announced that the ride was down. Well that's a bummer.

Up next: Don't worry, you don't ACTUALLY fall in a Briar Patch.

 

[IheartDDuck]

These pictures are ALL great! Your family definitely does take the greatest pics!

OMG "Man Down. Man Down" had me totally cracking up! I can't believe J got hit in the head with the water picture. Wait - then again - Yes I can. He's a boy and that's what they do!

And Goofy. How much fun is he? Everyone looks like they are having a blast!

We can be entertaining in pictures. The funny part is that photos do not even come close to accurately showing our crazy.

Oh, we use man down all the time. Mainly because Joaquin is often the one down.

 

[dawnbu40]

Congrats on the score
It looks like you had such a fun morning. I can't wait to get back there!

 

[Queenofallthings]

Well look at you!!! You killed it!

Love ALL the pictures with Duffy Perfect purchase!

I cannot wait to see the NFL....counting down!!! What's not to love about the Peoplemover, right? I call it my let's take a couple of spins to get off our feet ride We do love it!

 

[katt789]

I totes want to get to Ohana again, it's been so long and I would love to try it out again soon! It looks like it was a complete blast, especially Pluto! Super happy he was in a great mood that morning!!

Yay for MK fun!! That pic of Gavin with the side eye and the one where he's stroking or slapping the bust's face actually made me laugh out loud bahaha, they're great!!
