Over the river and through the FUN!

[MeMom]

I didn't get it because I was looking at it for Brooklynn at the time and it was $28. Not spending that much on a shirt she will soon outgrow. I might get it this summer for me since I will be able to wear it.

Yeah, that's a little much for a kid's t-shirt.

Wow. You must have a great zoom lens! Those pictures of LMA! were great!

I was happy with the camera overall. I was not happy with how blurry so many of my pictures were, but that was the fault of the operator, not the camera.

I love this view!!

But you have to go up high in the stands. I do like the shot from that vantage point, though.

Ohhhhhh that's another thing on my list to do....is get to HS. I've never been. I really want to see the Bell and Ariel show, the LMA, and see if we can snag a ride on the new Toy Story Mania. Think all of that is possible in a half day?
Jill hope your little Brooklyn is better and you too!

You have to go to Hollywood! It's the land of glitter and glamour! The street performers are fun to watch, Star Tours is a good ride, Little Mermaid is a nice cool place to sit down and watch a show out of the heat, Beauty and the Beast is good, Tower of Terror is fuuun...and there is much more! I love the streets at night with all the lights on!

If you get there at rope drop, go straight to Toy Story Midway Mania and ride right away. Little Mermaid runs continually, so that'll be no problem. You'll have to check the times for Beauty and the Beast and LMA, but I see no reason you couldn't do those things and more very easily.

Another vote for the angry eyes shirt ! In fact, I should have it on at school today.

My dh husband called my angry eyes my teacher look. I think every teacher or parent develops that look that is better than words.

My mom says "angry eyes" run in our family I may have to get her that shirt!

The 'angry eyes' tee is too cute, you should try and get it next time.

Hope Brooklynn is feeling better.

Since so many people are interested in that shirt, watch it be the first one to be discontinued!!!

Jill and Brooklynn both felt better today and went to school. Jill said Brooklynn didn't get sick any more after last night, and she was fine today, so that's good news!

We love going up in the stands. We always go up and sit under one of the fans while everyone else is trying to get close to the front as possible.

 

[micandminforever]

Glad to hear Jill and Brooklynn are feeling better.

 

[MagicShell]

I also love the shirt and your pictures. It is good to hear that Jill and Brooklynn are better. Being sick is no fun.

 

[sunny_stace]

Good! I am glad to hear everyone is feeling better!

 

[Megablocks]

Thanks for thinking of me on V-Day!

My dad and I made it a point to see the Lights, Motor, Action show. I had forgotten how cool it was. My dad is really, really into cars, so he loves the show, and he loved answering all the trivia questions on the big screen before the show.

The angry eyes shirt is so cute!! I have those most mornings.

At first, we weren't near a fan, but when they had everybody mush together so we could squeeze in a few thousand extra people, we ended up right under a fan. It blew my hair into some kind of crazy 'do' during the whole show!

Glad to hear Jill and Brooklynn are feeling better.

All is well. Jill had a doctor visit yesterday, and everything looked fine.

I also love the shirt and your pictures. It is good to hear that Jill and Brooklynn are better. Being sick is no fun.

Maybe I should buy about twenty of those shirts to bring back as souvenirs for all of you guys!

The girls are better. Jill said Brooklynn cried when she threw up. Other than being car sick on the way back from Disney World in November, she hasn't been sick. We are blessed that she's a very healthy little girl. When any little thing like this happens, it makes me mindful of people who have to watch their little ones go through serious illnesses and see them sick on a regular basis. That breaks my heart for them.

Good! I am glad to hear everyone is feeling better!

Yep!

So glad you are back safely!

Everybody be sure to go over and read the Almost Girly trip report.
Don't be frightened by the dad in the first group of pictures. In spite of his appearance, I think he's probably a great guy!

I have a couple of hours lapse in time here, so I'm not sure what we did right after LMA. By 1:30, though, we were at the beautiful Wilderness Lodge. This is Trent's favorite resort.

You may recognize our little tour guide.

One of the smaller trees. This resort is so pretty at Christmas.

One of our usual picture spots for Brooklynn.

We hope to watch her (and others to come) grow up with that totem pole as one of their height markers.

Thanksgiving Minnie and Mickey.

In the Mercantile.

In the lobby.

We ate lunch at Roaring Fork.

Outside.

We caught the geyser.

Trent and Brooklynn.

Waiting for the boat.

That's a great idea! So cute!

Glad everyone is feeling better!

 

[carissanboys]

I love the totem pole/height marker! I'll have to look for that on our trip since we'll be eating at WCC. We've been there once before, but I don't remember that.

 

[Charleston Princess]

Wilderness Lodge strikes me as the perfect Christmastime resort!

 

[CanadianWDWfan]

Glad your girls are feeling better.

The WL looks like a great way to spend an afternoon. It looks so massive. I can't wait to see it.

What a cute idea taking her pic infront of the totempole each trip.

BrooklynnsMommy it's good news to hear your doctor's apt went well. Not too much time left until you have her in your arms.

 

[lmillercrew]

I love that shirt with Mr Potato head! I think Jill should get that shirt this summer, but make sure she packs a yellow crayon, in case she gets bored!! Glad to hear that everyone is feeling better in your neck of the woods. Great pics of the stunt guy falling from the top of the building. I've only seen that show once, and all that I remember was that it was HOT!! We sat towards the front, so we could feel the heat from the fire.

 

[sunny_stace]

Look at that cute little Brooklyn posing in front of the totem pole! Oh Lord have Mercy she is too cute! I actually thought of her this morning when I woke up and saw my hair-do! (I went to bed with it wet and one side sort of matted down in the shape of my face. The other side looked like it had been inspired by Medusa's snakes!) Thankfully my hair is now long enough for a ponytail!

I wish I had gone over to WL to see it all decked out for Christmas...thanks for letting me see it through your eyes! With fabulous pictures of course!

 

[DisKate]

WL looks so beautiful! Last time we went we stayed in a cabin at the campground, but for some reason we never made it to the lodge

We have never resort hopped to just look at them, so the only other resorts I've seen are ASMo, Contemporary, and the inside of our cabin at FW ......Maybe this trip!

 

[pooksma]

Beautiful shots from WL. Great totem idea too.

 

[tinkgurl]

You may recognize our little tour guide.

Ahhhh...WL!

Haha, she's like "C'mon slow pokes!" I'd love to have her as my tour guide.

We love this part of WL. When sis was in a wheelchair, dad let go of it at the top and she screamed the whole way down while we ran after her......laughing so hard!

 

[IluvXU]

We have two of those.. Tink and the snowman... the snowman was 50% off after Christmas! I also love the Picture of Brooklynn the tour guide! WDW should hire her for VIP tours!

 

[xoktenox]

Awww I love your little "tour guide" picture at the beginning! Did Jill buy that "Joy from the World" shirt for Brooklynn? I thought it was so cute. And the Grumpy Bah Humbug shirt would be perfectttt for my BF He likes to pretend like he hates Christmas, I know he's lying though.

Once again, such beautiful pictures all together MeMom. The WL is just gorgeous, especially around Christmas time.

 

[Megablocks]

Ugh, I'm sorry Jill and Brooklynn were both sick -- I'm glad that they are feeling better. And that's so unfair about the apple turnovers, especially to a pregnant woman!!

Everybody be sure to go over and read the Almost Girly trip report.
Don't be frightened by the dad in the first group of pictures. In spite of his appearance, I think he's probably a great guy!

Okay I didn't notice this until I went back to drool over the WL pics -- thanks!

I should put a REALLY LARGE picture of my dad in the glasses so it's the first thing you see. That might frighten people, though.

 

[Nicole786]

Just like trent the WL is my favorite! I could smell the lobby from your pictures thank you!! Right now it looks like we are staying there in May, I'm so excited im beside myself I feel truly blessed!
