Woo Hoo !! For Reaching The Teens !!

Hope your able to locate your ME tags

Awe poor Caitlin , I was the same way around middle school though ! I actually didn't really get back into Disney until I had my own kids lol

I think you should scan and share some of these old pictures before your days on the disboards , we would all to see them !

If the ME tags don't come in today's mail I'm going to call.

I think middle school is a rough time to be a girl

I am going to go through the old pics and see if there are any we can agree on to post

 

[dawnbu40]

I remember when I was that way! I think most every girl goes through "that stage"!

We got our ME tags today - I just called Disney last week with our flight info...so definitely call, or have your TA check on them!

That is a hard age, isn't it?

Since I'm our TA I need to get on that

Since we were asked for pictures from our old trips we thought we would post some!

These are from the first trip to WDW my mom and dad went on together. It was my dad's first trip to WDW and my mom's 4th. It was also the 5th birthday of Epcot.

Isn't that cute? Chip and Dale

These are from my first trip to disney

This was taken at the Seas part of Epcot

Toontown! When you opened the boxes they would make noise I remember having fun with those

The next one is from my second trip to Disney

I actually pulled the sword out of the stone on this trip! It was when they had a show to go along with it and I was crowned and got to wear a cape! I received a medal and a certificate the only sad part is my parents weren't there to watch so we have no pictures from it!

These pictures are from a traveling Hunchback of Notre Dame show they had at a mall near us. It isn't Disney World but Disney related so it counts

In my hands is a stuffed animal of Esmerelda's goat I can't remember his name right now

This is from the trip we were talking about when I was 12.5

I look the happiest in this picture I also think it's awesome that Sleeping Beauty is in her blue dress you never see that now!

This trip was when I was in 8th grade and we brought along my friend Jackie.

Now this is one of my favorite pictures from a Disney vacation! I love how excited I look and it was one of the best character meet and greets I ever had! This was taken on my graduation trip at the Pirate and Princess Party

Thank you for posting about moody teenagers!! My daughter is only 7, but I can see that she will be very moody. Good to know they grow out of it and join DIS one day

for being in the teens!

We received our ME tags today too Dawn! Of course they're wrong now because we arrive a day early..... Call for sure, I hated waiting for our luggage when we didn't receive ours in January....we wasted a lot of time

Love that you took us on a little tour of memory lane!!!!! Caitlin, you were cute as ever

 

[MEK]

I love all the old pictures! What a nice trip down memory lane! Love it!

BTW - my traveling partner did receive our ME tickets as well. Dawn - I bet your travel agent has your ME information. Disney sends it to them first and she probably hasn't sent it to you for whatever reason.

Aww you're welcome Just like any phase they do grow out of it and you do survive

I did call and was told that for some reason when you stay in the villas ME tags arrive later than usual (which Mary Ellen told me earlier) I gave them all our info again and was assured they'd be here in the next 5 days.

Glad you enjoyed our trip down memory lane I totally agree that she was always a

Thank you! It was fun dragging them out! I know there is a whole album of her trip at 5 but for some reason I could only find the one picture.

Our TA doesn't have our ME stuff since it's me

ME just said it runs later when you're staying in a DVC which is what you posted earlier

Caitlin, our ever smiling cheery PrincessCaitlin, looks absolutely miserable in almost every picture!

Well, in the pictures you posted, she looks pretty good! You must have kept the "good" ones hidden away!

Well the only one from that trip is the one with Aurora. It was the only one she didn't look miserable

Caitlin was so teeny weeny! I love it! I instantly knew what the problem was when I saw the 12.5 pic. The hair is definitely the downer. We all have that phase where we tried to do something cool and it backfired, or the hairdresser didn't listen, or we let our friend do it. I would've been cranky in the pics too.

Yeah I had pointed to one picture and my hair dresser thought I was pointing to a different one. Since they were both short I didn't notice it was wrong until it was too late It's sad that I remember so much about the event

I enjoyed all the pictures from the past. Brought back a lot of memories. I'd almost forgotten about those boxes in Toontown. They had some at MGM too over by where the Monsters Inc characters are now back when it was a Roger Rabbit themed area. I really like the blue dress on Aurora too. The pink one is ok, but I think the bue one looked better.

I'm glad you enjoyed the pictures

Caitlin was 2 and loved those boxes! I don't know how much time we spent going back and forth between them

I think there is something more regal about the blue?

 

[brookelizabeth]

Great walk down memory lane, love all those "little" pictures, so cute!!! Those Toontown boxes would be a big hit with Henry too if they still had 'em!

Since I'm our TA I need to get on that

I didn't realize!!!

That is so strange...we are in the Villas and we check in September 2 but already got ours. Who knows!!! Our December trip (Kidani), it did seem to take longer for the tags though.... I'm sure they will come!!

Thank you! I love the pictures from her first visit. Being her first trip it holds many special memories. She loved the characters and had to get all the autographs because she saw all the big kids doing that.
She was an early talker, and not at all shy, so she struck up conversations with people everywhere and literally met people from around the globe

I am hoping to see those ME tags by the beginning of next week! We're crossing our fingers

 

[WrightFamily06]

If the ME tags don't come in today's mail I'm going to call.

I think middle school is a rough time to be a girl

I am going to go through the old pics and see if there are any we can agree on to post

Hope you got those me tags ?

Yes , I have to agree middle school is a very rough time to be a girl !

Glad to see there were some old pictures you could agree on I love old pictures I could look through ours all day in-fact I may look at ours with the kids today .

I love all of your old pictures ! Caitlin was so little and the picture w/ Aurora in her blue dress is great , wish she would come out in that now !

Hope you and the kids enjoy looking through yours too!

And still no ME tags

 

[dawnbu40]

2 weeks and 2 days! and still no ME tags

I have done some more preparations though! We are now packed! I couldn't bear the thought of waiting til the last minute so all of our bags are packed but there is no doubt I will be doing some ironing when we get there

I also placed our first order ever with Garden Grocer. We are big pop(soda depending on where you're from) and water drinkers and since I've read the refillable mugs aren't a great value at BW or BC I though it would be better to order some. It turns out though that GG requires a minimum $40 order so I not only got water and pop but I also got some breakfast foods and snacks. Since we have the little kitchenette we might as well take advantage of it, right?


That's all that's going on for now....hope y'all have a great weekend!
