Part II: "A Gingerbread Boy's Wish Come True"
ok................so where were we?
It's been sooooo long I forget
Ah yes...............about to turn back the clock. Well, with regard to my 'little girl' that is............................as she has decided a meet and greet with each of the fairies and princesses is a 'must-do'! Who woulda thunk????
All I can say is
First up some Fairies:
and then alittle Princess action:
Warms this old momma's heart I tell ya

(and for all you moms of 'little' girls out there giggling at my sentimentality............... just you wait................you'll see

)
Quick time check reveals it to be about 6:30 and we are supposed to meet up with Maroo at about 7:00. We know it's going to take alittle time to make our way over to our meeting spot in front of Casey's but figure we have just enough time to squeeze in alittle more fun. A quick ride on the Barnstormer roller coaster is just right for the littlest of my two chickens and makes my Matty VERY happy as he's been used to being turned away from all things up, down and speedy due to his height. Well, ok, it's not quite as up, down and speedy as he'd like but it's gonna have to do. After that.......................a few minutes running around the play area over by Donald's boat..................that'd be my Brennan's suggestion. And lastly..........................a quick detour to Space Mountain for Olivia, Nicholas and I.
It's a good thing dh isn't much for the up, down, and speedy...............gives me the opportunity to have ALL the fun
Time check #2 reveals that in fact we've timed it pretty well................it appears that we will indeed make our prearranged meeting time..........................if we hustle

And we do.
We hustle.
And we make it on time
As we approach Casey's I recognize Maroo immediately from her photos here on the Disboards. Oh, didn't I tell you we were meeting Maroo? In fact, although I haven't been providing the details here on this TR, there have been many many (many) phone calls between Maroo and I in the previous few days. Much much planning.
Much much anticipation.
Hey, is it possible that there is anyone reading this that doesn't yet know what's in store here?
Hmmmmmmmmm.
Maybe there is.
So I'll not reveal too too much.
I'll just let the story unfold.
Just......................in case
After a few minutes of hugs and hellos we make our way to the front of the park to find ourselves our 'spot'. Well, let's call it 'the' spot. Apparently Maroo has been instructed to have us sit in 'the' spot. So we find it. Right on the corner. In front of Town Hall.
We sit. It's about 7:20. 'It' doesn't start until 8:30. It's going to be a long wait
The kids and dh go off to score some hot dogs.
Then it's time for a bathroom break. Or two (funny how they don't realize that they have to go TOO until their sibling comes BACK

).
to be cont'd........................
