Mouths Agape,eyes Full Of Glow The Spongie Family Is Ready To Go! Update Last Day

oh man! you are so patient with your mil...i can't believe you were up all night! i understand how it is to be awake all night...i hope that you at least had some fun at dca!

i love your report! thanks for the pictures! :goodvibes
 
Oh wow, what a sweet heart Jayedyn is! That must just melt your heart! Good thing you had moments like that to make up for the MIL!

In your Tower of Terror picture, at first I thought you had picked up an extra little girl somewhere. But then I realized it was you! You look so cute!

I am eagerly and not very patiently awating the BIG BLOW UP episode!!!
 
You are a saint. To have that pillow so close at hand, and not pick it up and smother MIL!
I hope you get the update done before I head for DL on Saturday (I know, begging and bragging in the same sentence).
 

Misty - Oh my the big day is coming. I teared up when your DD gave the pin away, so sweet of her. The costumes were great, including your MIL's :lmao: . Great update.
 
popcorn:: I ventured over from the Disboutique thread and OMG I'm so glad I did (actually I probably don't need another thread to get addicted to :rolleyes1 )

I'm waiting in anticipation for the BLOWOUT chapter. :scared1:

I don't think I'd ever be as patient as you - If my MIL came I would be making sure she was in a different room - preferable a different hotel (or continent :rolleyes1 )

You have had me in tears of laughter - and I can not wait until I get to experience the magic that is disneyland :) 18months to go :banana:
When your DD shared the pixidust magic with the other girl, I actually had tears and my heart lifted. You must be so proud.

I'm sure I will cry to when I get to my dream place - I've dreamed of going since I was 5 and now 20something years later it is coming true. Thank you for posting your experience and I'm happy to know that even with an undisney person you still sound like you had the trip of your life :)

Bring on the next chapter :) popcorn:: :happytv:

Thanks , i am ashamed at the Expletives rolling Get prepared...

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. :cheer2: I love your trip report. The kids look so great in their costumes. Not only are you a saint (patience), but a talented costume designer. Amazing. pirate:
However, what is with the MIL outfit. Did she come up with it on her own. Very appropriate I would say.
And your daughter, she is an angel. I was so touched by her act of kindness.
Looking forward to your next post.:surfweb:

Hey there Lil' Grumpy Thanks for reading
I think a sweet guy like you could get away with being the one to knock Mr Vader off His platform:thumbsup2
No George autograph ! i just learned about that one (maybe next time )
Have fun on your cruise I was never a cruise person but now i think i could definately do a Disney One...:rolleyes1
My Dh is not a huge Disney Fan He has been so many times He just told me that he went alot of times when he was stationed at Camp Pend. for the marines So i gotta change his mind because i am hooked i absolutely would love to see WDW also:wizard: That one is gonna have to wait till 2010 and then we will go with the Utahmama Family (then watch out):rotfl:
Sure bring your MIL over I'll take care of her (she probably would not bother me that much Because she is not mine :rolleyes:

so patiently waiting to hear how your trip ended...
thanks , i am trying to get it finished thanks for hanging on ...

popcorn:: popcorn:: popcorn:: Does this popcorn make my butt look big???
Nope ;) But stop eating it ....:sad2: i am adding another part now

I am just adding the next chapter Just the blow-up and then i will finish out the day at DCA
 
Okay i know you have been all waiting for this day and here it is please excuse my Foul langauage.........


I close my eyes and fall asleep only to be awoken by the alarm which seems like seconds later(,which let's face it now it was) I, By all means are not a morning person especially if i have not had my sleep and so i was very tired and oh so Kranky, and Sore.:eek:

The lump in my throat is starting to emerge and my heart almost stops :scared1: when i realized that i forgot to take my Estrogen pill (which is the worst thing for me:rolleyes1 Let me explain,, as my DH say's I could kill someone brutually , drag there body to the back yard and dig there grave with my bare hands (in his exact words ) then go and take my pill and 20 minutes later have no idea what i had done and win The June Cleaver award for mother and wife of the year ) :rotfl:
The kids come bouncing in dressed and ready to go they each hug me:hug: and in comes Dh and what do i spy in his hands.
It is a 32 oz diet wild cherry pepsi (my coffee) he has been up for a hour and drove to 3 gas stations trying to find pepsi products because he knows me in the early morning and LOVES me.
91cofee294879.jpg


I tried to hide my mistake from DH but at that point i don't care so I swallow my estrogen pill and take a sip of pepsi Heaven ..

When Dh asks me if that is last nights pill ??????? i could secretly see in his head him praying that is was not (poor Guy)
I just smile and tell him yes!!! but reinerate that i love him and he suddenly takes a few.......
(okay who are we kidding alot of steps back and say's as calmly Not to awaken The Kracken in me
2kraken.jpg


"You get yourself dressed, i got the other kids"
( by the look on his face you would think he was looking at Satan in the flesh Which i probably was )
satan.jpg


After i throw on my clothes , brush my teeth and instead of doing my hair because i have no time .. i just pull my hair into my pirate hat (which i am constantly being told i am a hat person) which i am so Thankful for today pirate:
I am ready to go and we head down to the car it is a lil ' chilly outside but feels so good , i grab my DH's hand and tell him that i love him and that i am gonna kill his mom.. He laughs and then say's "you are serious" ?
i begin to tell him about my night using quite a few 4 letter words Like KILL, Beat, Stab ,Mutilate okay!! so you know what word it was :rolleyes1 and he hugs me , say's he is so sorry and that we are gonna have a ton of fun today ...
In comes MIL after having her cigarette and all my kids start coughing because really who wants to smell that so lonnie rolls the windows down and she has the nerve to tell him to roll them up she is cold and he mubbles something about her smoking and his kids .. Which she obviously does not like..
We get to the disney hotel
IMG_edited-1.jpg

i loved walking through there this was the 1st hotel that i have been in and i can feel the Disney Magic insert a few tears (Plus i am so excited for our character breakfast...)
I go check in and we are all ready we just have to wait while they are setting us up because we are a lil' early i smile and walk to lonnie I tell him that i am gonna hang away from everyone so that i can relax and wait for my estrogen to kick in.
He nods and tells me he loves me ,
as i am walking my MIL say's something too me rudely about me wearing a hat inside
And then it begins The room stops all motion and i swear you could almost hear my nerves shattering
because i go off on her
ARE you Ready Here it comes Just Think of the worst tone ever and that would be mine along with a Marine's Cussing and that also would shamefully be me too.....

1st : i let her know that if she was not such a loud **S whale i could get some sleep and that if she had any respect for anyone but herself
Mayson would not have woken up and i could have slept,
and he could enjoy DisneyLand instead of being so flippin tired and sleeping through half of the day

2nd: if there were not a ton of un-Needed Freakin drama every night i could have gotten some sleep

3rd: that if she needed to smoke that she should have paid for her own room and smoked herself to death and left my family alone.

4th: I also cuss at her about leaving my kids alone at Indianna,,,

5th: about her Crude behavior to complete strangers because she does not want to take care of herself properly so she could walk like every other person in the park,

6th: How i do not approve of her smoking around my kids and that it is an aweful habit ,

7th:I think i said something about if she was not my MIL that i would have smothered her in her sleep and ended her miserable life

(It was Bad) My kids are looking at me scared outta there minds when i hear my oldest son ask
"Dad Did she take her Estrogen?"
which makes me insanely laugh and lightens my ranting because my kids know me...
i look up at the CM's at the desk and realize where i am and that i let my MIL get to me at The Happy Place on Earth
so i just burst into uncontrollable tears ,
One of them motions for me to come over to her and this is when i think We are getting kicked out and all she does is hands me a tissue box and double checks all the information again
( Because we are celebrating my DH 's B-day here and he has no idea.)
I begin spilling my guts to her about how so very sorry i am and she makes me smile by saying that from what she heard it is my MIL fault.
Thank you CM M ?
Then she motions for us to take our Pictures with Pluto (who i know is thinking something insanely Because everyone has heard my Blow -up)

But thank goodness for early reservations the only kids who witnessed this site were mine .

While i was talking to the CM
My Knight in shinning Armour (DH) tells MIL just to leave me alone in a very calm but marine like tone...
MIL is so upset because he took my side..
I so wanted to stick my tongue out at her and say he loves me more .. but did not.
Our pictures is taken with pluto which you can tell i am angry ...
image122.jpg

and we are told another 5 minutes .
Now more people are starting to show up so i am just by myself by the door trying to calm down again

Mil is sitting down and she is trying to call my name and i am ignoring her for her life and my sanity and i really do not look good in ORANGE

so what does she do!!!!!!!
she has complete strangers calling my name so i am ignoring them also.
They are giving me Dirty Looks... and saying how i should respect my elders BLah Blah Blah
How Childish is she ???

she is making me look like the bad person now,
which i am pretty sure she was doing on purpose....
 
It is our turn and we go to sit down,

On the table are some Birthday Balloons for DH

IMG_0011.jpg


i sit on the very end of the table by Mayson so that i can just be by myself, the kids get up and get there food and our 1st character comes over and it is Baloo
My kids are not sure as to who he is but are excited. autograph books are signed and i snap some pictures
IMG_0001_edited-1.jpg

i have brought our camcorder today,
when i realize that i have forgot my memory card in The Laptop at the Hotel
so Dh gets up and goes to the gift shop and buys me a new one
Not to upset the balance of Nature...:laughing:
I am feeding mayson when Dh gets back he hands it to me i ask how much it was he kisses me on the forehead and walks to get his breakfast while there he grabs me a Bagel to go with my Coke
(i know we spent how much on a breakfast for me to eat a Bagel and a coke )

Next we see Chip
IMG_0004_edited-1.jpg

autograph books are signed and hugs are given
IMG_0003_edited-1.jpg

and then he decides he is going to sign our table paper .
IMG_0005_edited-1.jpg

what a silly chip.
IMG_0002_edited-1.jpg

The kids laugh and off he goes . While Dh is away getting more breakfast Goofy comes to see us
IMG_0006.jpg

He reaches for the pen to sign the book when i let him in on the plan
there are 6 all together he has to sign;)
He lets out a Goofy sigh ,Does some stretches, Jogs in place and pretends to crack his knuckles
IMG_0007.jpg

sit's down in lonnie's seat and begins writing away
Half way through he acts like he has a hand cramp and runs around the resteraunt only to return and finish the next 2 books
He wants to eat Mayson's food (which now is a plate of M&M's )and Mayson is all shy .
IMG_0008.jpg

Next comes Dale we grab his autograph, and MIL ask's me to take a picture so i do instead of throw her camera at her

IMG_0009_edited-1.jpg


I ask logan what he has ate and he starts rambling a ton of stuff off .

Next they bring out Lonnie his cupcake and Birthday Button and sing to him .

IMG_0010_edited-1.jpg



goofysoct2610-25-20079-50-29PM.jpg


Wow DH is on vacation ! i don't think once he shaved
since everyday at work he is neatly dressed, clean shaven ..:rotfl:


The kids are all finished when Goofy decides it is time to bang measuring cups and pans together so the kiddos join in i snap some photo's

goofysoct2610-25-20079-59-31PM_edit.jpg



and when that is done its off for a day at DcA
We take a few pictures of the kids

dca1stoct2610-25-20079-43-21PM.jpg


goofysoct2610-25-200710-08-35PM.jpg


goofysoct2610-25-200710-10-48PM_edi.jpg


and i notice that by the last picture Logan does not look well .

goofysoct2610-25-200710-10-59PM_edi.jpg


I rush him outside to get him some fresh air and he tells me his tummy hurts :eek:
(NOW when my kids say this,

it is bucket,

garbage ,

toilet ,

bowl,

(whatever, the nearest thing to Heave in ) TIME


i try to get him by a garbage and he throws up inches away from it .:scared1:

poor guy

He ate so much food. Because i was not monitoring his intake so once again the water works begin about what a horrible MOM i am ,,

I look at the CM's and apologize and they get someone on it with all smiles


While we are waiting for the Valet's to bring the van around I ask One of the Valet's if they would keep an eye on the kids so i can run inside and grab Logan some sprite
He say's sure and i am off ,
thankfully it soothes his tummy,

I take a picture of jayedyn who looks like she is gonna fly away..

dca1stoct2610-25-200710-16-06PM_edi.jpg


Thank goodness. The Van is here...

We jump in the van and off to DCA
when we arrive the gates are still closed because it is still pretty early
so we are thankful for that.

Logan can just take it easy while we wait for them to open ...

The fresh air is helping him

after about 20 mins we are ready to go ...

Next chapter Our last day Spending it at DCA :

And just as added Bonus This is what Mayson was doing while i was updating This Trip Report
Mind You He was completely Dressed

DSCF1458.jpg


DSCF1459.jpg


I hope you enjoy off to bathe the runt....

Then to get DCA done
 
Nice Tattoos May-May!!!! Poor thing! I bet that is permanent ink too. :rotfl2:

Only laughing cuz he aint mine!

I have to confess I got this story out of her and had to pretend not to know anything! :rolleyes1 See? I kept it in the vault, Mist!

You just back away quietly if she forgets to take her e-pills. :mad:
 
Misty, I just want to give you a big hug!!:hug:

Really, your mil is glad that was all you did!

But I must admit that I was snickering while reading about it!

I guess Mayson was saying he wanted some attention??:lmao:
 
:banana: :banana: :banana: I know you're embarassed about the rant, but she definitely had it coming!!! I can't believe she then tried to embarass you by having strangers call your name!! You'd think she'd just know to leave you alone at that point!!! UGH!

I love Mayson's artwork!! I hope it was washable!
 
Great update Misty! I feel much better after you let her have it! And yay Lonnie for being a good DH! (Mike usually doesn't shave on vacation either). That picture of the kids is so cute with everyone so happy and smiling--except poor Logan! :sick: Love Jayedyn's Minnie dot dress--I don't remember seeing that one before. :confused3 Are you holding out on me?
 
:hug: My MIL and your MIL would get on well :rolleyes1

Waiting to read how the rest of the trip went now :)
