Just Turned 21, Just Engaged, Just Married! A Trip FULL of Reasons to Celebrate!!

[princess_momma]

Aww! Since Landon loves Lion King so much, we're definitely going to have to watch "Festival of the Lion King" Did he like that last year?

I've never noticed the "A113" thing. I'll have to look out for that! And I was born in 1987... I'm old! LOL!

YES! We are big fans of FotLK!! We must go to that!! We always have sat in the lion section!! That's the best one. I always get pouty though...that's the one place I can never seem to get picked. They always pick a kid, even though I would give my most ferocious roar EVER!! Jack Sparrow will pick me, Indiana Jones will pick me...they will not. Lol!

Yes, definitely look out for it! Apparently it's the room number at a school they all went to and studied...CalArt maybe? It's Andy's mom's license plate number and...just shows up other random places! lol That's the only one I remember off the top of my head!!

You're not old!! I'm just a baby...only been able to drink legally for a month!!

I had to laugh when I read that first part about how it's the only place you can't get picked... maybe we can change that this trip! Are you going to try and get picked for everything again? You must! Oh wait! Isn't that the competition between you & Chris?!

Yes, it's a full on competition!! Last year I got picked for those 2, plus a bellhop at ToT let me do his safety spiel for him...does that count? I think Kristen and I decided that if anyone gets picked to open MK, they automatically win! Or get like 25 points. Idk how the point system is going to work though!! haha. SO EXCITED!! I hope I get picked for everything!!

Oh and I'm not letting Chris sit by me...so we can increase our chances of us both getting picked lol

Kimmy: "Sorry...we may have walked into together, but I don't know YOU!"

Chris: "Fine! PEACE!"

CM: "You...the magical princess next to that pretty girl with all the kids. And...you over there. Crazy guy shaking his booty."

I was seriously cracking up when you sent me this today and I took a picture of my computer screen and sent it to Chris...his response? "I better make sure I bring my lime green shirt then!"

ATTENTION VERA BRADLEY ADDICTS!! I NEED YOUR HELP!!

I want to buy an "all in one" bag. Something I can use as a purse/diaper bag/carry-on bag/everything bag. Since it'll be just me with the kids at the airport, it'd be SO nice to just have everything we need for the plane, etc in one bag.

I was looking at the Pleated Tote:

and the Baby Bag:

Any advice? Opinions? What patterns do you like? What bags do you have?

 

[wdhinn89]

Ok, I'm in Suffolk, towards the East End but not too far out.

Ohhh.. Where are you student teaching? Maybe you're in my school district

 

[MeMom]

We also got a wonderful surprise from Kristen in the mail today! She sent us a copy of the 4 Parks, 1 World cd!!!! WE LOVE IT!!!

Nice gift.

Cute video. You have two precious kids.



Sure glad you girls are letting the old folks join in.
I was 30 in 1987!
You've seen 50's Primetime Cafe? That was my house!

I love my Vera Bradley bag. I took it a few trips ago before I got my Disney Dooney & Bourke purse. The strap was great and never hurt my shoulder. It is kinda like the pattern of the Tote you posted a pic of.

 

[tinkgurl]

Sorry! double posted!

 

[klacey1]

Lauren, I think you should go with the pleated tote. It's really big and you'll definitely be able to use it after you no longer have a baby! The baby bag looks VERY much like a diaper bag (obviously, because it is!).

I have the Vera Bradley baby bag and I can't wait to use it!!! After I don't need it anymore, I plan on using it as an overnight bag.

I love the Pleated Tote though too....multiple uses for sure! My favorite patterns right now are Blue Lagoon, Viva la Vera (the pattern of the baby bag), and Lemon Parfait.

Yeah, I have a Hipster and it's so comfy to wear! It's just totally not big enough for what I need this trip I ended up buying a $15 bag from Target!

I like the pleated tote a lot. I ended up buying a bag from Target, but I think I'm going to convince my husband that I need a Vera as well!

Hard decisions, huh!? Viva la Vera is such a pretty pattern... definitely one of my favorites!!


**************************************

So, I ended up buying a $15 bag from Target that has so much space!

I loaded everything into it that I'll be carrying... Mallory's necessities, extra clothes, snacks & stuff for Jake, plus my purse objects.

I still want to buy a Vera, but I might just put it on hold for awhile.

17 DAYS!!!!!!

Did you try on those shoes? I bet the 7 was too big, huh?

I went and tried them on today while Jake was at school... and yes, the 7's were too big

Boo.

BTW, I answered your OKW question!

 

[jenny105]

Hi girls! Hi Kimmy! Thanks for sending me the link!

I'm so jealous! This trip sounds amazing! OKW looks like a really nice resort. I'm sure you're all going to have a blast.

And if one of you doesn't get pulled up on stage at the Hoop Dee Doo (ahem..kimmy) I will be so disappointed!! I was the can can girl when I went in 2009.

 

[princess_momma]

Boo.

BTW, I answered your OKW question!

I read your answer too! I think our biggest concern is elevators since we will have 3 kids! So we need at least that or ground floor!

I was student teaching in Sayville school district. Next semester I think I'm in Sachem.

Hi and welcome!! If one of us girls doesn't get picked for HDDR, my fiance probably will

I'm pretty sure this will be one of the biggest battle sequences of the trip.

Kimmy + Competiton to be in the Lime Light + Bottomless Sangria = FIERCE!

I CANNOT WAIT!! I'm totally making you guys get up and dance when they ask about couples with celebrations by the way. Woooohooooooo!!!

P.S. Do you have to alter our ADR since Voldemort is no longer going? (This was funny in my head...I just didn't want to say his name )
