I definitely don't want to offend anyone who loves HHN, and it is really well-done, but it is definitely not for me. However, I am glad I went to see for myself since it has always been something I've wanted to do.
good to know! Doesn't seem like my kind of thing either, I never watch horror movies, but maybe one year I will try and experience this!
Yay! It felt so good to finally be here!
LOVE that feeling going under the arches!
I couldn't stop smiling, I was just so happy to be back…
Lovely picture! You have the Disney glow!
I even toyed with the idea of trying on some dresses because they are oh, SO CUTE! My practical side won out and I ultimately decided that I would never wear these at home, and when I'm in WDW I don't really wear dresses, so I didn't even bother trying them on. But they are so, so cute

Here are a couple I would have tried on if I was going to...
I loved these as well but I never wear dresses like this either! It's more of a Chunkysis thing. Although I kinda wich I got the Small World print dress...that one was possibly worth getting but dont' think they sell it anymore.
I also toyed with the idea of getting a new Dooney, and thought about these…
I especially love the Tiana bag since I feel that her and I are kindred spirits and I find her so inspiring. She's definitely not afraid of a little hard work to get what she wants and when I am working my butt off and picking up extra shifts and overtime, I sing "Almost There," to myself! It takes the sting out of working crazy 12 hour shifts 50-60 hours/week
So cute. I also thought about a new Dooney, but the only one I actually wanted was the Pirate ones but they are pretty much gone I think. I also never use my dooneys. They are too stiff for me, and I like slouchy bags because I can throw all my stuff in. Dooneys are so cute to look at though!!
Anyway, I didn't end up getting a Dooney this trip because I wasn't 100% dying for one. However, they just recently released the Christmas Dooney and I for sure would have gotten one…they are SO CUTE! Alas, I missed that boat since they sold out in like two seconds flat and I wasn't on the app in time

And I refuse to pay the Ebay people because I am infuriated that they buy all of these to just turn around and charge a higher price. I'd rather go without than let them make a penny off of me
I hear ya. I really wanted an all-black star wars version they had a few years ago but I procrastinated and now they are all gone or selling for ridiculous amounts on ebay. so sad.
The only thing I ended up getting in the co-op was a candle that smelled JUST like the Bay Lake Tower lobby…yum! I got one for myself and one for my mom and I love it. It's officially Green Clover Aloe and I was burning it a lot, but I put it away when all the Christmas candles came out.
Oh cool! I didn't know they sold candle scents of Disney hotels!
- Bunch of Puppies - House-made hushpuppies served with pimento cheese and red jalapeño jelly - $10.00
These look amazing!
I always want to get these but we're never hungry enough for apps. Eggs are so filling!
We ate every last puppy and egg and we were both getting full by the time our actual meals came. This is why I would never get the DXDP on a regular basis, because I rarely get appetizers since they fill me up too much before dinner, but I would have gotten these with or without the DxDP, so in this case, good deal
Yeah us too, seems like too much food and we like to graze throughout the day too.
- Art's Famous Fried Chicken - Buttermilk-brined for 24 hours then perfectly fried and served with creamy mashed potatoes, cheddar drop biscuits, and love - $28.00
yum was so close to getting this but go the one with the doughnuts instead. I'd get this next time.
RIED CHICKEN CHOPPED SALAD-Mixed greens, egg, heirloom cherry tomatoes and cucumber tossed with icebox dressing, cheddar biscuit croutons and fresh herbs | 18
Looks great too!
We both loved our meals and hands down, think it was our favorite meal of the whole trip! Mike is still talking about it and has even texted me from work because he was telling his co-workers about it (but, of course, couldn't remember the name of the restaurant

).
I can see why!
Hummingbird Cake
Pineapple-Banana Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting, Served with a Scoop of Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
I really wanted to try this but with us too, it always goes to waste. I eat 3 bites of cake and I'm done.
This is hilarious!!
Cute picture!! You look adorable!
Did I EVER!!
I had reserved a Lake View Studio, and put in a request for an even numbered room, North side, high floor, and that's EXACTLY what we got. This room has the added bonus of also having a MK view, without using so many points

It was just PERFECT! It actually made me sad that we would only be spending one night here
OMG perfect view!!
I love your view of Space Mountain!
I love how the kitchenette actually is in it's own alcove like a full kitchen! That's awesome!
