Owen's Wish DISNEYWORLD 2011!!

I love the Halloween pictures! Kamryn did a fantastic job on her costume! Amazing that your kids were outside in bare feet this time of year. It was especially cold here this year so mine were wearing a couple of layers of clothes with their costumes over it. They'd love to be able to go out trick or treating with no jackets! Glad you had such a great evening.

What fun Big Give packages you got yesterday too! The outfits are fantastic! It's great how the things were coordinated. What awesome backpacks too!
 
So happy you all like the tees and that Kamryn's skirt fits! ;)

Kamryn did a great job on her costume and both her and Owen look too cute! Looks like you had a full day of fun! I just love all the BG items you have gotten and wanted to thank you for sharing so many pics with us!
:love:
 
Today was a busy day and I was the mom of the year for letting Kamryn ditch school!! After an early morning orthodontist appointment, the doc said to come back at 10:30 to get the molds made for her braces. She was so excited I couldn't say no. Guess who gets braces next Thursday!? Kamryn is SO thrilled!!!

We came home this afternoon to FOUR Big Gives!! We are so overwhelmed with the generosity our family has received. We are in awe and so grateful!!!

Our first package of the day came from disname: evsgranny! There was a package from the post office over the real package stating it was "damaged" and expressing their apology. I hope nothing is missing because the envelope was completely ripped apart. Darn postal service.

Owen was SO excited about the glow sword.. he opened it immedietly and has been playing with it ever since!!! Kamryn got a glow wand which she will save until we're at the parks.. that is the difference between my two munchkins! Ha.

Daddy got Eyore and I got Piglet. We tried them on and took pictures, but I cannot find the images on my camera card, so I'm thinking Kamryn didn't have it loaded right? Oh well. We look totally Awesome in the shirts too!!! They fit perfect!! Thank you so much!!!

She loves this outfit and once again.. everything fits perfectly!!! Thank you so much Lori!! The outfits are fantastic!!

We love everything so much.. you are all so talented and amazing!!! :)
 
love all the new gives. The smiling faces are a true joy to see.

also be very happy that she is excited about the braces it makes things much easier. We are still waiting on our bottoms to be installed but that is okay.
 

Love all the new things that came in the Mickey mail today! Seeing the pictures of the kids opening the packages is great!

Glad that Kamryn is excited about braces. My two were excited too. Make sure you feed her a big meal right after she gets the braces on because she won't eat much for the next day or two. My two got their braces and then we went out for a nice lunch together. By that night all they wanted was soup and applesauce.
 
awww, I'm so glad they like them! I adore the pic of him hugging his crayon roll up! Thank you for allowing me to be a small part of your trip! :)

Hope you guys have a fantastic time and can't wait to see pictures when you get back! :)
 
Really great pics!! The Darth Vadar outfit is so cool!! I know you all must be very excited! Getting closer!!
 
wow, such cute shirts and outfits and more fun goodies!

good luck to Kamryn with her braces!
 
I am so glad the package arrived and everything fits right ! I love to sew, but only do it for my family and The Big Give because I am paranoid that stuff won't fit! :-) I had a lot of fun making these outfits! You have beautiful children and they look so happy in their new attire. I hope you have a magical trip!
 
Kamryn came home from school a little early today. When I ran to the school to give her an Advil for her toothache, she asked way too nicely if she could just come home. I am such a sucker! She had bands placed on her upper molars to prep her teeth for braces. I imagine it feels like a giant piece of steak stuffed between your back molars trying to create a space. Yuck.

Anyway.. we were all home early and we ran to the bustop to pick up Gigi. We came home to FOUR Packages on the front porch!! We are still just so amazed each time Mickey Mail is received.. to date we have received TWENTY SIX packages!!! We are still kind of in shock at the generosity of the givers!!

Our first package came from disname: chelleydi77!

I know he isn's sharing the love in this picture, but he was mad at me for not letting him open his disposable camera from the first give. He just doesn't get the idea of "waiting".

After you post on my PTR I just had to come over and check out yours and I couldn't stop reading and stayed up way too late for my own good. :surfweb: You have such a beautiful family! I'm so excited that our dates are almost the same and we'll have to meet up at some point. So many great pictures! Owen will be added to my prayer list.
 
:cool1: Wow what awesome BG items that keep coming in. :cool1

As for the braces.... thinking of all that I had endured when I was 11 just started making my teeth hurt:rotfl: Glad your DS is happy and it will be worth it in the end.
 
Yesterday was the Phoenix Congenital Heart Walk and it was such a great time!! I posted a ton of pictures on my blog here.

This morning was Owen's cardiac echo and appt.. more info on the blog as well.

They love their winter gear!! We live in the desert, so they get so excited when they see scarves and mittens.. not an everday item. :) They will certainly be bundled up during those chilly December nights at the parks. Thanks so much Jodi!! They LOVE them!!
 
Oh my Gosh - Kamryn looks so beautiful in that picture where she is blowing a kiss - I Love it!!! And of course Owen looks so CUTE!! MAybe they will share a scarf with mom and dad if its chilly!!! ( : My cousin just got home last night and they were really chilly in the parks! So if you arent used to cold.....lol....

Thanks Wendy!!! I already told the kids they have to share their scarves. Ha. I'm sure we'll be freezing in the evenings/early mornings. It's nice to have a stroller to stuff all of our layers.

That is so true - I love it when we go with someone who has a stroller - you can stuff all kinds of STUFF in there - lol - snacks, souviniers, extra layers of clothing, all the glow stuff - lol!!!!!! You are just going to have so much fun! Do your kids like rides?

Kamryn - what are you looking forward to riding the most?princess:
Owen - which character do you want to meet the most?:wizard:
 
Both of our kiddos are ride junkies! Kamryn's favorites are the rollercoasters. Owen asked Dr Stock (cardiology) today "Dr Stock can I ride on the rollertoasters at Disney World .. yes or no?" Ha. We got the Ok to ride Big Thunder, Splash, Tower of Terror, ect. No problem :) He is just barely over the 40" height restrictions. He is also looking forward to Spiderman at IOA. Oh.. they both love the water rides too!!

We never stop for autographs or to see the characters at Disneyland, but the lines are always so long. I'm thinking with all the character meals this time around, they will get plenty of character interaction. Plus we have the GKTW GAC, so we should be able to visit a few more characters in the park without the lines. Kamryn loves to see Tink, but she's not a huge "gotta meet the characters" fan.. she's outgrowing that. Owen wants to see all the Superheros (Spiderman, ect), Cat and the Hat, Curious George, Mickey, Minnie, Stitch.. he wants to see them ALL!!!

SO excited we can hardly stand it. Our countdown calendar is half complete. We have so many dance performances, braces (this thursday), Turkey fundraisers for the foodbank, and a HUGE family Thanksgiving party this year... time is going to fly by. Trying so hard not to wish the time away and enjoy this wonderful time of year
!
 
I LOVE the Mickey and Minnie hats! Those are the most adorable hats ever! They will definitely keep the kids warm at Disney. It can certainly get chilly there in the winter.

It cracks me up that Owen loves the roller coasters. He's going to have a blast at the parks! Meeting the characters is so much more fun when you don't have to wait in the long lines to see them.
