Princess Gabby's Surprise First Trip to "Where the Princesses Live"

[Nettaboo]

Hey Guys,
I have not been around, i have had alot of things going on in my family. But I have been thinking about the trip and doing my projects. here are some pics of what I have been doing..

I hang around on the creative boards over on DIS .. I got a couple of invites that I edited for the kids. I am going to put them out at night and they will get them in the AM. The boys are only going to one with us as of now because the other 2 are princesses so my Mom vetoed them lol.

Here is one of the invites up close

and a group shot of some of them, The Narcoossees one is for my parents- I booked a surprise dinner for them there

I made the kids Welcome to Disney Letters- and I am going to put their GCs in there. I also made G an Invite to Disney and I am going to use that when I tell her about the trip

Here is a picture of the journals and activity books that I made.. I had the activity books bound at Staples- I was not tryna punch holes in all that!!LOL

Here are the autograph books and epcot passports I had made for G

A couple of shirts I picked up from the Disney Store for The Kids

G's Bathing suit

Oh my goodness, look at all that stuff! I love it!

The invitations are SO cute. What a good idea!

The journals and autograph books look great. The autograph books look really professional!

The clothes are all so cute! And that swimsuit? Oh my goodness, it's so adorable!

Girl, you have got a creative gene in you that I certainly don't have! You did a fantastic job! I love everything.

The clothes are so cute. I think my favorite is the bathing suit and flip flops.

 

[PamelaKay]

I am at a loss for words. That stuff is AMAZING! I think it may even inspire me.

Annette did you think about doing Akerhaus breakfast? It seems like a much more enjoyable meal.

Every time I look at those autograph books, I think I might try it but some times Isaiah isn't into the characters so it might be a waste.

Thank you!!! The autograph book actually is "professional", I sent it to a company (artscow.com) to have them printed!
I would not have been able to do any of this if it had not been for the creative boards..that is where I got most of the stuff..I

Morning friend,

Hope you had a good weekend. Do anything Disney planning related?

Good morning!!! How are you?? I went shopping this weekend for things for The Girl..She has gotten so tall that really nothing from last summer fits. Her God Mom bought her some things as well!! JCPenny was having a great sale! Between my Burlington, Children's place and Pennys purchases- I think she is just about set. I think she may need 1 or 2 more pairs of capris and that is it.
I found her Bathing suit from last year and it still fits so now she has 3.
I have 3 complaints about the designers for this year's children's clothes..

All the shorts are too short!! They have NO legs.. so all her things are capris or bumuders(sp). Also it was VERY hard to find a one piece in her size, most things were two pieces.. And the last thing is that I am looking for some cute all white sneakers- or with 1 color.. WHY does all the shoes(nikes and reebox) have to be all these multicolors...ACCK!! Ok those are my complaints!!

 

[mickeystoontown]

First off, your princess looks absolutely adorable in her Minnie dress. It's just soooooo cute! I really want some new luggage but can't really justify going out and buying more since the ones I have are perfectly fine.

Me and Mama went shopping this weekend and we saw some little girl shorts as we were cutting through the girls department. We made the same comment......look how short those shorts are! And some of the tops are tiny. Ummmmm, I would want my little girl flaunting her stuff at an early age.

Ok.. so on to Touring Plans..
I will start with Epcot(I don't know why I picked this one first..lol)
So far on my must sees are

Akershus at 12:30
Captain EO(taking the place of Honey I shrunk the kids) hope it is still runing in July
Get me an Adult Slushy drink
Pick a Pearl(Japan)
Nemo and Friends
Turtle Talk
Chacter Spot

Ok.. so Can you suggest anything else that should be a Must see for Epcot?? Also if you can help me with a plan of attack so I am not criss crossing the park all day.

This I might be able to help with. Are you planning on being at Epcot prior to the 12:30 ressie? If so I woud do Character Spot first. It is just to the right of the big fountain and then go to Nemo and Turtle talk. Then head up to Captain EO. There are 3 paths to the world showcase. The main one in the middle and one on each side. If you go to EO, you can take the one on the right side. That puts you in Canada, then United Kingdom then on around to France. They have frozen adult slushies. Then you can go get your pearl in Japan before going on around to lunch.

A couple of recommendations

There are really cool interactive games and things in the innoventions areas in Epcot. My sister and I had a blast playing the waste management/recylcing video games and the fire safety one.

Soarin at the Land is awesome as long a you are not prone to motion sickness. It is one of my favorite things at Disney, but you will need to get a Fast Pass or the lines are long.

Test track is a fun ride and not very scary.

Did you know Winnie the Pooh, Tigger and Eyeore can be found in the toy store in the United Kingdom. This is the only place at Disney you can get a picture with more than one Pooh character at a time and the lines are usually short since most folks don't know they are back there.

We had a very short wait to get a picture taken with Aurora outside France.

Belle and Beast are usually outside Germany and Aladdin and Jasmine are outside Morroco.

The margarita's in Mexico are yummy!

Not sure if any of this helps.

Love the minnie dress. Saw a family this weekend at Animal Kingdom who had custom shirts. Each person in the family had a different animal print Mickey Head and their name on the front of their t-shirt.

I can't wait to see the rest of your creations.
