Marriage: The Trip Report - Update 2/28 - Final Thoughts & Link to Disneyland TR!

So to recap, we are at the Wilderness Lodge - we had just been swimming and now we are headed over to the beach. There is sand, Henry must dig!

One of our refillable mugs became Henry's bucket and the lid was his shovel. It worked slick and we had plenty to spare due to our split reservations (and we'd be getting more at BLT!)

Joe and I hung out in lounge chairs while our happy boy dug and dug

After a while Joe and I took turns playing with him while the other did absolutely nothing at all but stare at the water. I am normally a get-up and go person, but this day, it was very nice to just do nothing. The sun was shining, there was a slight breeze - it was perfect.

I wish I could remember what we were chatting about!

We hit up the playground for a bit, then went back to digging. I wandered a bit while returning the life jacket that we had gotten for the pool and getting us all some water.

About 3:00 we cleaned up and went back inside to take some pictures and find a snack before leaving.

Inside Roaring Fork I wasn't sure what I wanted. Hmmm....then suddenly I remembered! It was one of those really exciting moments when you remember something that you've been logging into your memory banks - something you knew you had to see or experience due to rave reviews on another TR....and I cannot recall who it was but, THIS

became my snack -and as soon as I read the description, Joe grabbed one too!

It's the Magic Cookie Bar! Basically a 7-layer bar.

And what better place to enjoy these beauties than poolside?

Henry was pretty pumped over having another Mickey Bar!

Coconut, chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, peanut butter, maybe some nuts...all goodness smooshed into a big 'ol bar.

A very good, but very sweet bar. I couldn't finish mine - Joe demolished his and the rest of mine. :laughing:

Okay...this trip was 7 months ago, I'm so thankful I took notes, because this is, word for word what I have written from this snack time: "Henry quote from snack time: "Mickey Mouse tastes like sausage."

:rotfl2:
 
Ahhhhh Wilderness Lodge.


Digging, snacking, and a Mickey Bar. :love:

I absolutely love times like this. ::yes::
 

"Mickey Mouse tastes like sausage"? :lmao::lmao::lmao: Priceless! I love lazy beach days.And a lazy beach day with one of those bar things would be ever better.:thumbsup2
 
What a magically chill afternoon. Good weather, beautiful surroundings, yummy snacks...what more could you ask for? :goodvibes
 
I love making Magic Cookie Bars - they're literally one of the easiest things to do, all you do is spread the ingredients in a pan and bake them. But now I think I need to start adding sprinkles to mine, that looks even better!!

Relaxing on the beach looks so nice, it looks like you had a wonderful day! :goodvibes
 
If there were not nuts in that bar i'd be all for it.

I know what you mean about taking notes. I did not take any on my last. So that'll make for an interesting TR
 
I love Henry he's so funny! Mickey Mouse tastes like sausage :lmao::lmao::lmao:

Luv the pics from Wilderness lodge

Joe and Henry look like they are having a very intellectual conversation here.:goodvibes

Sausage, huh? That's a new one!:lmao: I love the day of chill. You rarely get those days at Disney unless you force yourself. Or your spouse.:rolleyes1
 
Sausage huh?

:lmao:

I think it's wonderful that you were able to just relax while Henry played in the sand. I admit, without a book that might be very hard for me to just sit there for too long if I knew I couldn't actually go in that water!

Gorgeous pics.

That bar looks crazy sweet though! I'll have what Henry's having.
 
Oh Henry!! You are such a goofball!!!

Love the wilderness lodge. I feel bad for Creighton because I am not a pool person at all. And he loves "swinnin". I'll have to send him with you so he can get all the "swin" time he wants. :rotfl:
 
Yummm, Magic Cookie bars. So, so good! You gave me an idea of something to throw together for our always hungry, four kiddos. I like them with the Mickey sprinkles!

Wilderness Lodge is dreamy. Ah...
 
Hmmm... we're staying at Wilderness Lodge for a few nights in December... just might have to make a point of getting one of those fabulous looking bars! ;)
 
Sounds like a lovely day! :cloud9:

Putting 'Magic Cookie Bar' on my list of things to try while at the WL in JUST 3 WEEKS!!!! :yay: Don't think I want a Mickey bar that tastes like sausage though :laughing:
