Don't worry about it. I know how hard it is to keep up with subbed TR's

I went over and posted.I actually have dropped almost all of my subbed threads and only am keeping up with a few.I have a couple that I try to check everyday(except this past week) and then about ten that I check as often as I can.

We were trying to decide what to do next when Amy called.GM and GP took Rebekah and Peyton to meet up with Amy,Bart and the boys at Big Thunder Mountain while I took Rachel to see Ariel.Yep,it was time for Rachel's big meeting.

The sign said that there was a 60 min wait. Rachel insisted she didn't care so we waited...and waited.Actually it wasn't too bad.Rachel played in the fountains until we got under the rock/cave thingy.

Our wait time ended up being only 20 minutes. Ariel was super sweet,asking her name and complimenting Rae on her Ariel charm on her necklace.

We walked toward the mountains to meet up with the family and Rachel was sound asleep within minutes.

I found everyone soaked from riding splash mountain and just sitting around chatting.We took a few pictures,rested and visited.

We decided we needed to head toward Crystal Palace for our ADR.It was a very long walk for GM, who was hurting and refused to get a wheelchair. We got to Crystal Palace and I realized that Rachel was soaked from playing in the fountains at the Grotto.I woke her up ,changed her clothes,and then got us checked in for dinner.The kids started watching the show in front of the Castle and were not happy that we were called immediately in for dinner.

We loved the whole experience at Crystal Palace.The food was delicious and the characters were wonderful.

Peyton took a picture of his hidden Mickey.

He's here!!

Peyton came back from the bathroom to find this the only available seat-Rae had taken his.

The kids walked out onto the porch(we were seated against the windows) and watched a few minutes of the show while we paid the bill.

Now how should we spend our last evening??

The pics of Rachel with Ariel are precious!

Seeing Rachel sleeping in the stroller makes me wish I had a stroller to sleep in when I need a break at Magic Kingdom!

He looks mad in the pic but he wasn't.

Hi! Thanks,I love those pics.I know what you mean about the stroller.She took aome great naps in it and looked super comfy.

 

[scottny]

I love CP.

[Trentmom]

Yay, you did an update

Love the picture of Rae with Ariel, with her foot turned inward....too cute

Fountains look like a lot of fun

love all the pics at CP!!!

Peyton and Rebekkah don't look too thrilled...coming into teen years

Love pic of Peyton in high chair..save that for future girlfriends

Great update

 

[jordanyosh]

I forget who the man is in that pic with all the kids.....your brother? your brother in law? Your friend's husband? a stranger?

 

[DisMomAmy]

Looks like the kids all had a great time at CP! That was one of our favorite times too! I'm glad Rae got to see Ariel too!

 

[cmp1111]

Oh, I'm so glad that the wait wasn't nearly what it said. That was the most tan Ariel I've ever seen, though!

We loved the CP as well - such fun! Cute pictures!

I can't believe we're on the last night.

 

[punkin413]

those pics of rachel sleeping are so sweet! it's like she thought, "okay...now i've met ariel....i can relax!"

 

[ShhhQ]

Crystal Palace looks great! Sounds like you all had a blast.
We plan on dining there when we go this summer.

 

[Disneyolic]

OMG ~ How precious Rachel falling asleep. I love them sleeping pictures!

I'd rather be riding Splash Mountain and getting soaked than wait for Ariel though!
