Yea the waiting area's so small, they don't have room for a long line!

Guess they don't expect to ever have a line.

Hey hun, how are you? I am slowly trying to get caught up with everything on here, as well as everything else here at home after being away for a week for Mothers Day. Its surprising how much you miss in just one week. Anyhoo, have I missed any plans or updates?

Haha, it is crazy already thinking we're going again in 88 days!

In my '08 TR, I did my year in review. During our '08 trip, I had bought a cute dress at that Roxy store in Adventureland at the MK to wear for my birthday party in July. I posted pictures of it from my birthday party. That's what I'm going to wear for the Luau. Here it is:

I love riding the railroad when I'm hot and tired. I can just sit back, relax and unwind. Once I've caught my second wind I can get off and start touring again.

Ahh, the railroad sounds pretty nice right now!

March 27th

A year ago today, my life was forever changed. I got a phone call from my sister saying I needed to come home. Our Aunt had passed away. Right now, a year ago, at 9 a.m. she was still alive..and by 4 p.m., she had taken her own life. She will be forever missed. Please keep me and my family in your thoughts today, because it's a day I've been dreading. She was only 28 years old. She left behind a son who's now 10 and a son who's now 2. The 10 year old she had with another guy before she met my uncle. And the 2 year old is my uncle's. From those of you that know me, know that the 2 year old is the light of my life. He is what has kept this family moving along from this loss.

Here's our last family photo:

She's in the back to the left.

Here's her picture from her obituary:

I will be posting another picture of her later when I get back home. I want to share it with you guys. Some family friends took it of my Aunt and Uncle one night and it's the most beautiful picture ever. (Even if they are a bit loopy, haha).

I will be back to doing Attraction of the Day tomorrow.

Oh, I'm so sorry After talking so much these past two years I've come to love your family, and I can't even imagine what you all must have gone through. Your aunt was so beautiful, and I'm sure your cousin will have the life she would have wanted for him with you helping out. Hang in there, and you know I'm here if you need anything

Aw Mel, you are so nice. I'm glad we've gotten to know each other. It's been 2 years already?!

 

[troobabiee7]

I'm so glad too! It's been around 2 years, can you believe it? We started talking in the beginning of 2007, when I was on here under Babieemelly and planning my 2007 trip.

 

[ariel2007]

Ah hun, I am so sorry for your loss. I know it is not new, but I know how much it hurts and how hard it is to lose someone close, especially on a day like today when you have so many memories and thoughts of the happier times and then of your loss. But, although its hard, you have so much to be happy about and live for, including the little ray of sunshine she left for you all to care for. And I am sure that he, and indeed your Aunt, would be so happy and proud of the way you have stepped up and taken care of her little guy, and his life will be so much happier and richer with everything you do for him. Love and hugs to you and your family

 

[addictedtothemouse]

This is for you and your family.

 

[lmillercrew]

So sorry that you are grieving. I suppose this time of year will always be a time of reflection on your aunts life.

Wow..it's gone by fast. Haha. I remember you were Babieemelly. I sent you an e-mail or whatever asking you to do me a favor when my sis was in NYC for the parade and I never heard back from you. I thought you were ignoring me!

[MeMom]

Just wanted you to know your family is in our thoughts and prayers as you deal with the memory of that day and your loss.

 

[AlohaPolynesian]

I'm BACK AND ALL CAUGHT UP! I'm trying my hardest to convince my mama to come to Disney so I can use my PIN code but she thinks she "doesn't have time" which really means she just doesn't want to go. Anyways...

I'm so sorry about your aunt. A year is always hard because it's like you can't believe it has been this long and it is just a weird feeling. Your family is in my thoughts

As for my catching up:

Awesome ADR's! Loved 1900 PF and Chef Mickey's.

Muppets, Teacups, and Primeval Whirl = Probably will never do again in my life!

Monsters is awesome but wasn't too funny when we just saw it.

Love the Judges Tent, but the line is always so long. I like to do character meals instead because you can kill 2 birds with one stone and don't have to wait in line!

The RR is so great, I got a cute photo of the entrance to MK right as the train was pulling in. Love it!
