[OneTreeHillAddict]

Tried to post earlier....stupid thing froze up on me! I noticed those seats last time and wondered why the heck they put them back there. At WCC where there's antics going on all the time? Hello! You wanna see that stuff! Your food looks great! We ate here in '06 I think it was. Our server happened to be from Myrtle Beach. That was funny and the even funnier part...he once worked at Ripley's Aquarium and my sister thought he was hot! GREAT update!!!!

nice hair extensions.

I just got my hair cut and it seems my hairdresse had a lot of fun with the scissor. lol She cut a bit more than I wanted.

thanks! sometimes you tell hairdressers something and they just totally dont listen. i've found that to be true with a lot of them. like they have a vision for your hair and it doesn't matter what you actually want LOL i'm sure it still looks great though girl!

The hair extensions are super cute! And such a great cause.

You're tempting me to make a WCC reservation for my one day trip!

Thanks Julie! WCC was really cool! I would recommend it for your one day trip which is coming up so soon!

I love those hair extensions. They look great on you. How fun.
Maybe I'll get lime green for disney
Somehow I don't think those colored hair extensions are meant for 47 year olds - but the 16 year old who lives inside me would love them.
And quit lying to us about your nudist tendencies

Thank you!! I'm pretty sure you can be any age to get hair extensions so don't be silly!! I was trying to get my mom to go there and get one at least since its for such a good cause. She was considering it and shes 45 so there LOL

And yes, I'm sorry you had to find out this way...I live in a nudist colony and never wear clothes except in WDW.....

peanut butter jelly time!!!!

CHRIS HIJACKED MY DIS ACCOUNT AND POSTED THIS LAST NIGHT. HE THINKS HES REALLY FUNNY!!!

love the pink hair extensions. my best friend from high school got some too with her little girl and they look so adorable together.

not that you need it but i lost a good bit of my weight when i started drinking nothing but water. i cut out diet coke, tea, EVERYTHING but water. i do allow myself coffee in the morning but i'm telling you, drinking nothing but water makes a TON of difference. diet coke is okay every now and then but it's just not good for you. your body needs that water to cleanse itself and be healthy.

if you already drink tons of water, nevermind!

Thanks Dawn! I was trying to get my mom to go get them since its for a good cause and she was kind of considering it I think LOL

I remember reading a bit about your weight loss on here. You look great now so how else did you do it, besides the water thing? I do already drink almost nothing but water. On a regular day I will sometimes allow myself one glass of green tea but most days its only water. I drink tea in the morning occasionally but I don't put any sugar in it and I use fat free half and half which is only like 20 calories. At work I just drink bottle after bottle of water (and pee like 99 times a day LOL) So what else did you do to lose weight? Of course you look great so I'd love to know!

Love the hair extensions!

I'm trying to lose weight myself. Eating more slowly helps. I also try to eat less at night.

Thank you! I'm going to try the eating slowly thing. When we were in WDW we realized we either eat reeeeeeally fast or everyone else eats super slow. Its the NYer in us LOL I was wondering if slowing down would help. I'm surely gonna try it! Eating less at night would definitely be a plus too. Thanks girl

I "think" I am caught up on your updates!!! Enjoyed seeing all the pictures from Universal -- we will probably never end up there until they open the Harry Potter park. Then, we will have to go for Connor.

Dinner looks so delicious at WCC -- looks like I will have to eat there sometime.

CP, so glad to have you back!! (even though i'm sure you'd rather still be at AKL!) I'm sure Connor would loveeee the HP section of IOA. I'm not sure when it opens up though!

WCC was hmmm mmm good. I would add it to your list of "next times."

GIRL! You are not fat! But you did make me laugh with the "my poof should've been higher".

Ahhh...the MK. I'm getting antsy for that view.

Woo! WL! Aw, the boat dock. How I miss you so! Haha, woo! I'm mentioned again! That sucks the pic you sent me got deleted! It was a very nice pic!

OMG, you did some good describing where you were eat WCC because that's exactly where I imagined you guys were when you told me while you were eating!

Love the pink extensions!

Thankkkk you dear, you're always telling me that. I knew someone would get a kick out of the higher poof thing LOL

You will be in the MK in like a week!! Ahhhhh soooo lucky, I better get pics! WL, you will be seeing her soon too!!

Glad you like the extensions, it was for a good cause

The hair extensions are cute. I like how you let us know that you have a shirt on.

Thank you I don't want anyone to think I'm taking pictures while naked I doubt thats Dis appropriate!

Jeez, the Dis is always freezing or slowwww. Annoying. Yea, the seats at WCC were definitely out of the way. We did wanna be a part of the antics so we were a little disappointed but I think our hunger took over LOL The food was really good. Thats funny that your server was from MB and your sister had thought he was hot . We had a few run ins with some locals too. You'll hear about that soon.

WCC has the best cornbread in all of WDW with the Cape May Buffet coming in second! Yum!!

Hmmmm I just woke up and that cornbread would be a delicious breakfast right now!!

 

[troobabiee7]

[lauren_elizabeth]

I love the hair extensions on you! They really pop with your blonde hair!

 

[MeMom]

Thanks to everyone who posted this time around! Since this is my first TR I am nervous that its boring or people aren't interested so when I got like 1 post for an update I was just hoping it wasn't because I sucked at writing it! I know everyone's busy so thanks for sticking around

Don't get discouraged. It's just that darned old real life gets in the way of our DIS fun too often!

 

[Busymom85]

[ariel1025]

You and your boyfriend are super cute and I love your pink highlights

 

[JenAusty]

I always thought about doing that in the summer. and its great that all the proceeds went to something. I loved the pictures of you on the bridge..was that at AKL? I didn't get to read through all of your updates.. I'm trying to catch up and read as we go along to.. I'm a super slacker! hehe

Sorry you got a tummy ache at IOA! Yikes! But I'm glad it went away so you could enjoy WCC! To bad you didn't get any of the special WCC treatment! Did you ask for ketchup?! The kiddos LOVED running all around the place giving people ketchup! LOL!!

I love your pink highlights!! DD asked if she could get pink hair the other day, she has a clip in extension type thing but it won't stay in! She's getting her haircut in a few days so we'll see. I tend to be a sucker but I'm affraid DH might have a fit! She also said I should get it too! LOL!!

Jennnnn you're back! Glad you like the highlights, thanks! The pictures from the bridge were from WL, isn't the little bridge so cute? Good thing I'm slow at updating because now you have time to catch up haha

Thanks Melissa! Do you have Cablevision? Chris works out of Southampton I'll send him over asap to fix that internet LOL

Yeah the food at IOA was poo, ick! Luckily i was able to reeeeeally enjoy WCC. We never asked for ketchup because we really didn't need it for our meal, we should have asked anyway though!

Glad you like the highlights! The place I got them thats doing the fundraiser is in Center Moriches, you should take DD there and you should get some too!

Its ok we all understand even though it doesn't seem like it we all have lives outside of the DIS. Can't wait to see and hear more. When do you find out about your test?

Glad you're all caught up and you like the extensions! You could still get them with brown hair. The lady that I work with that I saw with them has brown hair and she had 3 of them in, blue, purple and greenish. The place I had mine done had all those colors too. Go for it!

Maybe I need to move to Ontario so I can drive around in the nude and fufill my true calling

[btallennc3]

I am on the single digit countdown disney here we come. Cant wait to see the castle on Wed.

 

[xoktenox]

I was planning on finishing up day 3 and starting on day 4 tonight but then i realized that i need to scan the pictures i took with the water camera on day 4 since we went to Blizzard Beach on day 4. The scanner isn't hooked up to my laptop so I would have to scan them all, then email them to myself and then add them all the photobucket and I don't have time to do that all tonight. So unfortunately this update will be kind of short, just finishing up our night. Another update will come this weekend of the start of day 4.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I last left off we had just finished our delicious dinner at Whispering Canyon Cafe. I'd like to make a reminder here that this has been our 2nd table service meal of the trip and we're on day 3. We didn't have the dining plan, if you all remember, because we didn't think we would be doing a table service everyday. Would we keep sticking to our reservation schedule and regret not getting the DP? Stay tuned to find out

When we had first gotten to the WL, over in front of the Mercantile gift shop was an artist drawing caricatures. I am obsessed with caricatures and always want to get one drawn of Chris and I. So finally after two years of dating we decided that after dinner we would get ours made up. There was a list that you had to put your name on and then just wait around until the guy was ready. I, of course, wanted to go into the Mercantile and look around to see if there was anyway to spend more of my money. These were some prospects.

Of course the mini-totem pole is always a thought...

Loveee the princesses

And Tink!!

I ended up just getting this really cute post card with all the princesses on it, not to mail to anyone, just to hang on my wall in my room LOL I'll post a picture tomorrow.

So we then just went and sat by the artist and watched him draw the picture for the kid in front of us. He was probably like 11 or 12 and was a lacrosse player so he was getting a lacrosse picture. Well it just so happens that Chris played lacrosee for years, throughout junior and senior high school and then he went to college on a lacrosse scholarship. So once he saw the kid getting a lacrosse picture done, he perked up. He ended up getting into conversation with the kids parents and this other lady who was walking by whose son plays lacrosse and was telling them all the tips and stuff LOL Chris really wishes he could still play lacrosse and is always looking for adult leagues to play in but never finds anything that works with his work schedule so he really enjoyed talking lacrosse with these people. And, it turned out that the lady who was walking past was from upstate NY, pretty close to where my uncle and cousin live which was cool.

Anyway, it was finally our turn. I let Chris sit first to be drawn but stood next to him becasue I didn't want to see what the artist was drawing, I wanted to be surprised. We started talking with the artist while we were sitting there. He was from NJ but I can't remember what his name was. Let me tell you, we were CRACKING UP with this guy!! We were talking and laughing so hard I was crying! OMG he was so funny. At one point one of us brought up the pressed penny machine. We were hysterically laughing talking about how ridiculous it is to have to PAY money to get YOUR OWN money back! It may not seem that funny now but the way this guy was describing it and talking about it, the three of us were rolling.

Finally it was my turn to get drawn. As it started to get closer to being done people were walking past and kept saying how great it looked and stuff. I wanted it to be done so I could see it!! After about a half an hour the whole thing was done. I was and am sooooo happy with the finished product.

I love it!! Then you have to go into the Mercantile to pay for it. So I handed the guy my debit card to use as a credit card and its not signed on the back so he asked for my ID. His nametag said he was in the college program so I asked him a few questions and I showed him my driver's license. He looks at it and automatically goes "so where are you from in NY, Staten Island or Long Island?" I was like I asked him how he knew where I was from and he was like "obviously from your accent." He was from Queens and recognized it immediately. I really never realize how strong my Long Island accent is until I'm away from LI! Most of you have never heard me talk before but I love when others post videos so I can hear their accents, especially you Southerners! Southern accents are so cute! So I paid, went out and tipped the artist and Chris and I decided it was time to head back to ASMo.

We wanted to avoid heading to the MK because it was around 10:30 and the crowds at the bus stop would be insane. So we kissed the WL goodbye for now and went out to the bus stop. The first bus that came was for Downtown Disney so we jumped on figuring lines shouldn't be TOO bad there. Little did we realize that the bus still had to stop at the Grand Floridian. It was alright because the bus driver was from Brooklyn so we chatted it up with him a little bit. After we pick up like 2 people from the GF we start going towards DTD and we're like at a dead stop. Turns our that there was a car accident holding up everyone! Some car went straight off the road into the woods! It was weird because when you're in Disney you kind of forget those kind of things can still happen After what seemed like forever we made it to DTD and got off at the West Side stop. It was PACKED for the All Stars! OMG we just couldnt catch a break with these buses! We didn't make it on to the first AllStar bus that came and about 10 mins after that one we got on the next one. Finally by like 11:30 we made it back to ASMo! I called for a wakeup call and by 11:45 we were zonked out. Another amazing, wonderful, successful day at WDW was completed.


Next up:: Blizzard Beach and DisneyQuest!!

 

[xoktenox]

I am on the single digit countdown disney here we come. Cant wait to see the castle on Wed.

OMG so lucky! You're going to have the best time!!

 

[tinkgurl]

Aw that drawing is so cute of you guys!

Oh so sad about the car accident!

 

[BrooklynnsMommy]

I always forget about my accent until I'm not in the south and then people just ask me to talk so they can hear it. I'm wondering if Brooklynn will sit still long enough to have a caricature done this summer.
