It was NOT the time of our lives...but it's still DISNEY! Final thoughts!

[acejka]

ARG! A cliffhanger!! I'm anxious to read the rest!

I celebrate my babies' birthdays too! People think I'm nuts but they are part of the family just as much as anyone else.

I hope your grams is doing well

 

[DevonsDisneyMom]

Oh no!!! I can only imagine what could have happened!!!

I have to say thou, I am loving the pictures you took at POP!!! We are staying at the resort for the first time in Sept. We are so very excited!! I requested a room in the 50's section as well. Is that pretty close to the main buliding and buses?? My only concern is, I have a 7 year old son and after being in the parks all day he usually falls asleep on the bus ride home and I really don't want to hike a mile when dragging him back ot the room at night. Thanks! ~Reese

 

[tinkgurl]

Oh my gosh, that shirt you got is so cute! Definately my style.

Lunch looks nice. I probably would've had the pizza too!

Uh oh...I'm getting nervous to read about the rest of your night.

It's nice to know i'm not the only one.. I"m really excited for Stella! Were going to have the party at my grams house and my grams is sooo excited.. she just thinks this is so unreal. My grams loves Stella with her whole heart. Everytime we visit, grams always snuggles my stella every since they were little.

Hi Reese (oh, i love your name) Oh.. it's coming up soon, I just hope everyone will stick around after friday evenings post.

Thanks, I love taking photo's of POP.. because we love it's charm. WE always stay in the 50's section we try to get building B, not facing the pool because we like to see fireworks but facing the pool with kids would be nice. We don't find it far from the bus.. maybe between 2-3 minutes from the buses. The laundry is there too and it's not near the main pool so it's quieter with less people in the pool. I told calderli to take a room in the 50's section.. i think you'll be okay.

Oh my gosh, that shirt you got is so cute! Definately my style.

Uh oh...I'm getting nervous to read about the rest of your night.

It's a nice shirt.. i'm excited to wear it. The pizza was good.. I was looking forward to it.

I saw that you were at POP and I'm considering a stay there for December.

But maybe not?? Now, I'm intrigued and yet a little frightened.

I agree is that the CMs at the hotel can really make a difference. I was getting frustrated at POR for their lack of service and professionalism.

 

[tinkabella627]

ok I am confused...

who shipped the packages to the hotel? Did you ship yourself the stuff for your dogs party? (i think its my bedtime because I am sure this makes clear sense and you probably explained it but I am clearly losing it haha)

 

[Lynn5700]

That shirt is sooo cute!! You have great style.

Ok I'm very upset that Beaute Speciale did that to you. There is no excuse for them to have acted like that when you called. You filled out forms, and had everything set up. That's just not right.

 

[Sunset Cliffs]

My heart sank for you when I read that the stylist person didn't know anything about your appointment. Then I felt better when you got a name of the person that was coming over. And now, I'm nervous for you because I want your photo shoot to turn out nice! I know how important that was to you. Keeping my fingers crossed (silly, since it has already happened, but it makes me feel better).

To be honest, I'd still stay there again..Dbf will not. We are going to book another trip and he has asked me to switch hotels.

Your so right, the CM's at the hotel can make or break your whole experience there.

Here i'll try again, I was doing a little shopping online and had them delivered the hotel.. for example all of our party supplies: it would have cost 50.00 to ship to Canada or 6.00 dollars to ship to the hotel.

I"m kinda sad that you won't be posting on your TR for a while.. but obviously i'm happy because your getting your house, schoold's starting.. this is an exciting time for you and your DH.

Thanks, I like it and it was only 19.99 and free shipping!! Normally i shop at BCBG, shirts can run up to 300 Sooo..I was thrilled when i found this one.

That phone call left a really bad impression on me and Dbf, it was so weird. After hanging up the phone, I was so worried about my appointment. She didn't remember who I was (even tho, i had been sending a lot of emails to both veronica and ana because I had sent them both a million +1 emails), she was rude and then not knowning off hand who was doing my appointment. Ohhh.....

I just thought it was completely un-professional.

That was the most un-professional phone conversations i've ever experienced and it left a really bad taste in my mouth. I was so worried about my appointment and Dbf thought i'd paid some circus to come and do my hair...

For everyone who’s been following my PTR and have now joined my TR, I recently bought a temporary Dining room table, which is dark maple and round with 4 black leather chairs. Come Spring, once we can find a rectangle dining room table with a at least two leaf inserts and matching cabinet we will move this “temporary” round table set in the kitchen and throw out the current one in the kitchen.

UPDATE:
All we need is to get a mirror (to hang in the dining room wall there) along with some fresh flowers for the table and an area rug.

Considering you can see part of our living room in this photo as well, I wanted to hang 3 photos of us from our photo shoot above the living room couch… but I don’t think that will happen now :S and we need a new lamp!!

Now that I just look at the photo everything looks so small.... but the SPACE IS HUGE.

Oh, Please ignore my treadmill.. it clearly needs to be moved upstairs in the spare bedroom this evening before our guest arrive.

 

[DreaGirl]

Wow! That was a smooth check-in! I would have been on cloud 9!

Traveling on that first day is so exhausting. We always have a lot planned but end up changing it because we are just exhausted.

I can't believe the shipping price difference! That is nuts. You should have done more online shopping.

I can't believe the make-up/hair ladies had no idea who you were! I would have flipped!!

I can only imagine what is up next....


The dining room looks great!!

 

[Disneychix]

Oh, ya got me with the cliff-hanger!

I think it's funny that you say "pop" as in soda! I'm from WNY and I say pop too!

I was a little confused with all the packages too but it makes total sense now. Getting packages on vacation sounds like fun! Maybe I"ll try that

 

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

I am gettimg very nervous for you! I am definitely sticking around until the end! I can't wait to see what the plans are for the next vacation...

 

[DevonsDisneyMom]

I'm not going anywhere Rach!!! I need to know what happened!!! The suspense is killing me!! I'm just nervous that it has something to do with the resort and I am not going to want to stay there now... Please don't let it be that!!!

Thanks for the compliment on my name!!! My DS always has to point out that my name is just like the reeses peanut butter cup!! The things that kid thinks of!!

oh, almost forgot... Loving the dining room table!! it goes perfect with the light fixture!

 

[Scot-n-Michelle]

Love the minnie dress - too cute! You are kinda scaring me about POP!! We arrive next Saturday - I must admit I was very confused about the packages that you had arrive - all I could think of was they brought their dog - lol. Don't think you are crazy to celebrate the dog's b-day - my kids can't wait to do that - actually we will celebrate the day we adopted him from the shelter as we do not know his b-day. Can't wait to hear more!!

 

[Lynn5700]

Love the dining set! Very nice.

Yeah that was totally unprofessional.

I am reading along and have an ot question.

The wee tag under your name says "obsessive Cullen disorder" can I ask what that is?

My son is called Cullen and I was just interested to know as it isn't a name you see very often.

I'm going to guess it has to do with the Twilight books/movies. Edward Cullen is the main character and he has quite the female following for a blood sucking vampire I haven't read the books yet but saw the Twilight movie and am definitely a fan now lol

 

[Zeebs]

ahhhhh, I see, I hope that doesn't mean the name is going to get really popular.
