Great update!

Yay for more vacation!

Glad Shanleigh took a night off from studying to enjoy her birthday. How is she liking the University?

Sounds like a great night of celebrating your birthday with family and surprises!

MK is my favorite park...just something about that feeling on Main St! Loveeeeee the pics of you and Shanleigh in front of the castle, just beautiful! Love her shirt in the pic too....looks like a coral color, very pretty.

What a lovely MK morning! It's my favorite park, and I could happily spend at least a few hours there every day.

Great photos of the two of you--love your shirt!

Happy belated birthday to both of you lovely ladies. I hope that they were filled with laughter and love.

Princess T....."who dat?" Oh my.

Love the update. That's a great shot that you took of the castle. Nice composition.

I love your Canadian T. That's really cute.

Love the People Mover. After missing it all together on my last few trips, I finally rode it in October. Yeah!

 

[amazingact21]

Sounds like a very nice MK morning. There's nothing quite like Main Street.

The gardens in the park really are so pretty, and they make the castle look even greater. It is shameful to see families rushing from one land to the other, never slowing down to take in all the little details.

Your PP pictures in front of the castle are great!

 

[teekathepony]

Oooooh I LOVE your True North Strong and Free t-shirt!!
Great morning at MK! I love the PP pictures in front of the castle. Definitely a fantastic way to start a day.
Some day I want to meet Tiana because she sounds so interesting in every report I've heard about her.

 

[PISCESANGEL]

Happy Belated Birthday to you and Shanleigh~I'm so sorry I missed you both!

The MK update was wonderful though, you both just looked so happy and content. I agree WS is my favorite but Main Street, USA definitely holds a special place in my heart too.

Thanks for choosing us instead of the Christmas tree this time- looking forward to more!!!

Ha... Have to admit... the tree went up this weekend!!
I'm nuts, I know..... Usually the tree goes up the 2nd weekend of November but I bought a new tree this year so of course, I need to make sure it fits and the lights work etc...... lol.... next weekend the decorations go up!!
Love the updates!!! We are starting to think of plans for a trip next December...!! looking at POLFQ!! just for the two of us!!

Hey.... can you ask Shan do do favor for me? I'm looking for Victoria Beckham

Debbie

We put ours up on Saturday during the snowstorm...it was perfect when we had all the lights off and the front blinds open watching the snow fall...bring on the season!

Hey, I wonder if we'll end up there at the same time next December

Shan said they've never had it but she will keep her eyes open and let you know if any comes in!

If she sees Victoria Beckham come in... let me know!!!

She's on it....she'll let you know ASAP!!!

Great update!

Yay for more vacation!

She is loving University....her last paper she got a 98% ... currently she holds the highest mark in the class! I'm just a little proud of her

We had a great time celebrating our birthdays...and I really need to post a picture of the special cake I had made for her!

Isn't that shirt gorgeous. She bought it at Winners (where she works) and I was amazed at how many CM's asked her where she bought it! I do have to say tho, it wasn't the easiest thing to wash with those fringes

What a lovely MK morning! It's my favorite park, and I could happily spend at least a few hours there every day.

Great photos of the two of you--love your shirt!

Happy belated birthday to both of you lovely ladies. I hope that they were filled with laughter and love.

I'm with ya girl, it's right up there for me too! I love to grab a bench in Liberty Square by the Christmas Shop and just take it all in!

Thank you so much...it was part of the Canadian Olympic line of clothing!

Thanks for the birthday wishes...we had a great few days!

Princess T....."who dat?" Oh my.

Love the update. That's a great shot that you took of the castle. Nice composition.

I love your Canadian T. That's really cute.

Love the People Mover. After missing it all together on my last few trips, I finally rode it in October. Yeah!

She made me laugh out loud that's for sure

Coming from you my friend, that's an amazing compliment! Thank you so much\

I bought that shirt a couple of years ago when the 2010 Olympic clothes were out and I just love it!

Glad you made it on this last trip!

Your PP pictures in front of the castle are great!

I agree, there is something about walking down that street that is like nothing else in the world!

I feel so bad for people who think they have to try and do everything and see everything and they miss everything around them!

Thanks

Oooooh I LOVE your True North Strong and Free t-shirt!!
Great morning at MK! I love the PP pictures in front of the castle. Definitely a fantastic way to start a day.
Some day I want to meet Tiana because she sounds so interesting in every report I've heard about her.

Hey girl....look for it the next time your in The Bay...not sure if they still have them but that's where I got it!

It was a great way to start the day and I've stopped thinking "oh we'll get a picture later" and we never did so now when we think about it we do it!

We've never actually met her but just listening to her ... it's on our list for next time!

Happy Belated Birthday to you and Shanleigh~I'm so sorry I missed you both!

Hey there friend! Thank you so much for the b-day wishes!

Yup, completely agree, my two fav places too!

The tree went up this past Saturday during our first snowstorm of the season...one thing off the list!

 

[pkondz]

She is loving University....her last paper she got a 98% ... currently she holds the highest mark in the class! I'm just a little proud of her

Wow! That's awesome. Tell her "Way to go!" for me.

 

[WDisneyMom]

Great job, Shanleigh! I'm sure she will continue to do great in school, very impressive!

Yes! I would love to see a picture of the cake you made...I cannot bake to save my life!

Too funny her own coworkers asked her where she got her shirt from...haha.

 

[Sam33]

Yay! I got back from the World today; watching Star Wars with the hubby and catching up on your TR!
After hitting Food And Wine I definitely think Star Wars weekend is next on my list. Looks like a blast.

 

[PlutosRHM55]

All caught up! I'm so glad I didn't fall too far behind on this one, but it looks like there was still a lot to miss. You guys just have way too much fun down in the World! haha Can't wait to read more!

 

[ellajeansmom]

Thanks Lara

I have to give credit where credit is due and that's to you my friend. It was when I was reading your TR that it dawned on my that we could go at the beginning of December. Not sure how University breaks work for Ontario but here they usually have about a month off before they go back, depending on their courses.

I loved the pics of you all with the decorations and your holiday attire....you inspired me to make this trip work so thank you

Well I'm thrilled we could provide inspiration for you

You do look a little red after your morning at the pool but it doesn't seem to have slowed you down too much!

Fun morning at MK - will have to try the People Mover in Feb, seems like a good ride to relax on after running the PHM

Hope things are well with you

 

[PlutosRHM55]

Just stopping by to wish you a merry Christmas!

 

[leamom2princesses]

Hope you had a wonderful Christmas! Wishing you the best for the New Year!

 

[teekathepony]

Hey girl! Hope you had a great Christmas, here to wish you all the best for the new year!

 

[PlutosRHM55]

To hoping 2013 is a wonderful year and brings many more magical moments (and Disney trips)!

 

[PISCESANGEL]

We are missing you Queen! Hope you and Shan enjoyed your holidays, and you will {hopefully!} be back with another update soon!!

Can you ever forgive me? I have been away from the Dis for 2 and a half months and all I can say is I just needed a break from it. Unfortunately, I had let it consume my life and between that and work I needed to walk away and put things in perspective. I love my new role which I have been at a year now, however, I wasn't prepared for all the extra hours at year end. I was so exhausted when I would get home that the last thing I wanted to do was sit in front of a computer!

I have missed you all terribly but if I hadn't have taken a break, I'm not sure that I would have ever finished this TR! But here I am and considering we have officially booked our next trip, I have to finish this one to start a brand new PTR! Now, having said that, the new PTR will not begin until this one is complete....

As I'm writing this, I'm not even sure how many people will be reading it, but I know I have a few great Dis friends that will still read and I'm not one to not finish something so here goes.....

I left off with us being at the MK and it was just about lunch time and we decided instead of heading back to the hotel that we would grab a bite at one of the TS restaurants here! We weren't finished wandering around so we talked and walked....

As we wandered around it was hotter than you-know-what so we decided we should maybe pop into a place where we knew it would be nice and cool.....

Love this ride, always have always will....it brings back the memories of our very first trip when Shanleigh had a meltdown because she thought they were real and that they were firing at us....makes me laugh just thinking about it!

After a cool down we decided we knew exactly where we would be going for lunch ... a place we have missed on our last few trips....

I think by now you have guessed where we are.....

The veranda at Tony's! I really wanted to get a seat inside but all they had were the outside seats and considering they are covered we decided just being out of the sun would be good enough!

Everytime I look at this picture of Shan it reminds me of how hot it was that day.....

Once again, we should have shared something but we were both in the mood for completely different things so I had the sliders which were delicious but I only ate one and a bit of another and I was full!

Shan loved her dish, she could eat fish and shellfish til the cows came home so she made quick work of this!

Once we were done we both decided that since we hadn't been on the train yet this trip that we would take a loop around the park

One of my dream hotels that I hope one day to stay at....

a view of the other passengers

My girl inside the tunnel...I knew at this point we were both done and that we would be heading to the bus as soon as we got off! We didn't have to wait for the bus so we were back at Pop in no time flat.

We went in to fill up our mugs before heading up to our room and Shanleigh spotted this....which she just had to have! She tells me it's the best dessert on property...what is it you ask....let me tell you! It's a chocolate cupcake with banana cream filling, topped with peanut butter frosting and candied bacon. She wasn't sure about the bacon but the young man behind the counter assured her it was delicious so she thought she'd give it a try! SHE LOVED IT!!!! Really, it's bacon, what's not to love!

I have to run out and pick up my little darling from work, grab some groceries, watch the Winnipeg Jets vs Ottawa Senators play this afternoon, then home! I am so happy hockey has started again

My next update will reveal where the title of this TR came from......

 

[KatMark]

Fun update. You guys do look hot, but lunch looks yummy.

Trying to figure out your dates for your trip and I think we miss you by a week in December.
