If I didn't read this the correct way, Mary, I would think you were saying it was "kind a pain but not a huge deal" meeting them (meaning us).

Guess I need to paraphrase better OY so sorry!!

 

[MaryAz]

What great pictures Mary...that one of Cayley and Mark on the carousel cracks me up....it's so adorable!!!

She had lots of un with him!!

Finally caught up with your last update! I love reading about your girls in all the various trip reports. They are so adorable and they look like they are having a fabulous time!

I love seeing pictures of MK at night. What a fun evening you had. I know the girls did their best to tire out "grumpy" Mark!

Thanks so much. I have been lurking on your PTR. Our first 2 Disney trips were in late May. I am also a fan of Dave Ramsey. Avery is 6.5 and Cayley is 4. Your kids are also super cute. It was a combonation of not so great circumstances that made our stay frustrating. We own DVC so will probably just stay that way from now on. I do have 2 nights at POP booked for Dec. I am sure your time there will be great!

Oh good. I have a lurker. That makes me feel special! They can be cute. When their noses are not faucets like they are at present. That is great that you have DVC but still get to try out non-DVC places. I think that is really cool.

I will try and post after ur next update. My little one has a runny nose and hacky cough. The points for DVC are highrer on the weekend so I like to use my AP rate at different places then

No worries. I was just giving you a hard time.

Mon Sep 20th

I let the girls sleep in a little since we had been out late the night before. I turned on the TV a little after 9am I think. We had some energy bars and veggie juice and opened our front door to a painter painting the railings. I had asked to be moved away from painting at check in so I was a little upset. It was only railings but it did smell. We made our way to the bus stop. Where we waited and waited and waited for a DHS bus. 20 min, 30 min, 40 min-someone then called and they said a bus would be along soon. 50 min, ONE HOUR. Finally about 15 min later a bus pulled up. Yes, that was an HOUR and FIFTEEN min wait. There was a super cute little girl there that my girls were talking with so that did help to pass the time. I had been checking my phone to see if TSMM FP were still avalible and they were until we got on the bus. And then there were none. We were pretty bummed.

We arrived at DHS and made our way over to see the Muppets. the girls also wanted to take some pics in the "snow"

Cayley then decided she wanted her pic taken the Cars vehicles. the she decided no. So we decided to head to pizza Planet for lunch. When we were in line Cayley told the cashier that someone had stolen my Little green alien cup at the gym-they had. The cashier reached into a drawer and handed me a new one. SO sweet! We ate our lunch interupted of course by Cayley needing a potty break.

After lunch we headed to the VOTLM. The sweet girl from the bus stop was there and asked to announce the show. We love this show so much. We then went and saw PHD-an old favorite. Avery then bought a fun light up crown-remember this for later...

We wanted to stay for the parade so Cayley could see Jesse. We decided to get some treats at Starring Roles. The girls spilit some fudge and I got an eclair. Very yummy. We found a spot for the parade and waited. it was pretty hot and C got a little cranky. But soon our Pixar friends were on the way.

A dancer came over and invited the girls to join in. Only one did. Who it was may surprise you...

At this point the girls decided that they were done with DHS. Avery made a request to see some of our new favorite people again so a text was sent....

Up next, would we have a repeat Dis Meet and how many Mormon boys can Mary get to drink Beverly???

 

[KatMark]

I am so sorry about the bus--inexcusable.

I love the pictures of Cayley and Avery in the snow -- too cute (and I'm sure they don't see snow in AZ). I like the pictures of Avery dancing with the parade people.

A repeat DIS Meet???? I wonder if that happened?????

 

[Queenofallthings]

Wow...we waited that long one morning last summer when we were heading to Epcot for our princess breakfast....it was hard on my nieces as I'm sure it was on your girls.

I will be sure to send pictures this winter with lots of snow on the ground...I'll get Jasmine to go outside and make snow angels for the girls!!!

 

[Charleston Princess]

An hour and fifteen minutes is just craziness!!! I would have been absolutely fuming mad especially since it meant you missed out on TSM Fast Passes!

 

[SoonerGirl]

Oh my gosh, that long of a wait for a bus is just inexcusable! I'm with Jackie - I would have been fuming

I love your parade pics, I never get to see them so I really enjoy looking at other people's pictures of them.

 

[Brave teacher]

Hey Mary! I just noticed you had posted another TR, so I decided to hop on and catch up.

The flight down sounded nice and quiet. I would be upset, as you were, if I made a request to be moved away from the paint only to have the painting move near me.

Your evening in MK sounds wonderful.

I would have been insane with a bus wait for an hour and fifteen minutes. That is insane.

I look forward to hearing more.

 

[MEK]

1hr and 15 mins????? That's nuts. We waited close to an hour on our HS day. It was so disappointing because there was no way we could get a TSM return time when we would still be there. Plus it was super crowded.

Your parade pictures are really good and the girls are adorable, as usual. Hmmmmmmm......repeat DIS meet? Was it Kathy and Mark or Jasmine and Queen?

 

[OhioDisneyLover]

An hour and 15 min is ridiculous! I can't imagine having to wait that long!

Cute snow pictures.

By the way, that was me that you saw with Kathy and Mark.

 

[jenjolt]

WOW 75 minutes for a bus...that is just ridiculous!! Sorry you weren't able to get TSM FPs!!!

I too love the VOTLM, glad you were able to to enjoy the show!!! YAY for pixie dust a new cup!!!

I love that picture of the girls in the snow!! TOO CUTE!!

 

[mickeystoontown]

I hated to read that you opened the door to maintenance painting the rails at the resort. I know you had specifically requested that you not be anywhere near the painting.

I would have been mad as heck if I had to wait for a bus for an hour and 15 minutes. That's just plain old ridiculous! AND it caused you to not get a TSM Fastpass.

I was happy to see that Avery decided to join in the dance party. She certainly looks like she was having fun.

 

[brookelizabeth]

Oh my goodness, an hour and 15 minutes?!?! What in the World went wrong there? So sorry to hear you missed out on TSM FPs too! We have yet to see the LM at DHS, but it's on the list for Feb/March!

Your mention of getting the Mormon boys to drink Beverly made me laugh out loud!! Sounds like it will be a fun update - I picture you and the girls surrounded by boys in white button down shirts and black pants!

It was a pain. Not to much snow near us, have to drive a few hours. She was happy to dance. Oh, you are so funny

I am glad we did not have anywhere we "needed" to be. They would love pics like that!
