Ringing in 2010, 6 months til we'll be back again

After Pirates, we had one of those rare moments where the whole group was together. With the use of the Fastpasses acquired earlier and the gift Fastpasses, the group, excluding me and the two little girls, went on Space Mountain together.

Brooklynn, Bella, and I walked around the arcade. Brooklynn enjoyed the games with no money involved. She is happy to go from one thing to another enjoying the lights and sounds.

You can tell how fast she is going by the flying hair. :)

I can't remember who I texted during that time, but I did text someone so that could report to you guys where we were and what was going on. I always enjoy knowing where DIS friends are when they are there. It brings it a little closer to me for a minute.

I am a little bit Goofy

when it comes to Disney things, I know, but I think a few of you also like those live updates, as well.


When the people with money came off the ride, Brooklynn was able to play a real game, with a little help from Bubby.

While we had everyone together, I asked for a group picture, and they kindly obliged.

I'm right there with you! Hannah has the Goofy gene as well when it comes to Disney things! She came up to me this morning while I was checking my e-mail. She saw one of the notifications from the DIS and said "Disney!! I love Disney. *sigh*" Also, while cleaning her room the other day I found am ADR list she made. It reads:

"Diner Plan
Sun 1900 Park fare
Mon Aqaraume coral
Tue TV diner
Wed Playhouse buffet
Thur picnic
Fri bonjer
Sat beatuful eating"

:rotfl:

Love the faces Trent and Brooklynn are making!
 
I love live updates!!! I know when Jen and LL were in Disney, I loved getting their texts -- it made me smile to know someone was enjoying our favorite place while I was grocery shopping or teaching or doing whatever.

Brooklyn must have been flying!!! :rotfl:

Great group picture!!! The only person missing is you! :rolleyes:
 

Hooray for an update! My kids are going back to school today, but on a two hour delay!

I love how little kids "play" video games without money, and I definitely recognize the "windswept" hair. I swear that Brooklyn and Johanna are like dopplegangers! Well, maybe that's not the right word, because it isn't so much that they look alike as they act alike!

You are not alone in your goofy-ness! I love live updates on a trip report! It almost makes you feel like you are tagging along on vacation.

I hope Jill gets some time to relax with you this weekend!:thumbsup2Nothing like a visit to the Disney store to make your work worries disappear for a little while.
 
I love that age Brooklynn is, when they're happy to sit at those arcade games, never drop any money in, and still think they're really playing/driving/ whatever the game is! TOO CUTE! :)

Enjoyed seeing a group pic---like seeing everyone you've been talking about in one shot. :thumbsup2
 
That group picture is just darling.....but where are you, missy? :rolleyes1

It looks like Brooklyn had a great time at the arcade; at that age, if they are content to play without money, that is wonderful and saves Jill a bundle. :thumbsup2
 
So I was several updates behind but am all caught up now :)

I think I saw a not so hidden Memom in the Buzz pic's ? lol

Adorable pic's of Bella & Brooklyn in jail with Zurg

Never have been to your secret place but I can't wait to explore it on our next trip !

Great detailed pictures of your secret place also :)

Congrats on all the snow days MeMom ! I just wish it would snow here once this year :(

Nice shopping pictures , as always adding to my list :laughing:

Nice Adventureland pictures :)

Drew's pictures are gorgeous , i can't get over how well he was able to capture Davy Jones ! He's def a great photographer in the making :thumbsup2

Awesome Video's :thumbsup2

Cute pictures of Brooklyn playing in the Arcade & a very nice group picture also !

What a great looking group!

By the way MeMom I read on the Resorts Board that the are sprucing up the rooms at POP.
 
I've been gone for a few days. Well, here, but not able to DIS:(. Drew has a real talent for taking pictures. I love how he captured Magic Kingdom. The picture of Brooklyn driving with her hair like that is hilarious:rotfl:, and it is great you got a group picture, except if you were in the picture it would have been more perfect.

It was quite a challenging few days with childcare since school was out, but enjoyed staying home with Abby on Monday. We painted nails, had tea parties, and just played. I make a big effort not to turn the TV on and it ended up being perfect. Although, I do admit, I was wiped out. I think it is more the end of pregnancy and trying to bend down a lot, etc, but it was all worth it.

I was thinking of you this AM - there was a billboard outside a doc office talking about knee surgery and was wondering how your knee was doing?
 
I was pages and pages behind due to real life getting in the way of DISing. ;) I am enjoying every moment of your report, seeing your beautiful girls---and a few of you! :goodvibes

How many snow days did you have? Four?! That is a lot! I am glad you stayed safe.

I had no idea the Castle was lit in the morning! It almost looked dark out still one of the pictures you posted. :laughing: What a very lovely sight...along with that chocolate croissant...in the morning!

I might have to visit your Secret Spot on our next trip. I think our little man would highly enjoy it!

I was pleased to read that Brooklynn still enjoys the games without money. We want to ride that one for a loooooooooong time with Henry! :rolleyes: I cannot believe how expensive some of those games are!
 
"He really is a sweet kid, and he's cute and smart, but boy, can he talk!!!"

This made me LOL. Someone will be saying similar things about my daughter in a couple of years time when she starts school! :rotfl:
Although if you ask around it seems like people think she might get it from me :lmao:
 
I love how Brooklynn's hair makes it look like she is going really fast!

Denise

I thought that was very fitting. :)
She was sure going fast in her own mind!



Love the faces Trent and Brooklynn are making!

I think Brooklynn is eating something, and Trent is probably telling me to hurry up. ;)

Makes the picture easier on the eyes. :)

It is fun to get live updates and picture exactly where someone is - the sights, smells, and sounds, etc.

I know Brooklynn would enjoy playing with Johanna.

We are going to say goodbye to the only Disney Store we have left. :sad2:

Wonder how much longer we'll be able to get away with pretend playing.

I was glad to have the whole gang together. :goodvibes

I am standing there looking at that beautiful group. :)

She just went from one thing to another and quite enjoyed it. She watched a father and son play air hockey for a while and though that was funny.

I think you will enjoy the secret place. It is a calm and quiet place to just get out of the crowd and eat a peaceful meal or snack.

It's still cold and wet out today, but not cold enough for more snow, as of now.



What a great looking group!

By the way MeMom I read on the Resorts Board that the are sprucing up the rooms at POP.

I saw something about Pop getting some attention, too. I am very glad to hear that and excited to see the changes this summer!



Wow! Brookie is driving really fast! So cute!

I have a feeling her first driving experience (one in which she actually moves) will be Tomorrowland Speedway! :laughing:

Aw, you girls had such fun. You know, I don't have my TV on much, either. I am bad about being on the computer, though, with Disney music playing in the background. I also listen to sermons on the computer. So, I guess my bad thing is computer rather than TV.

I could tell a difference in the October trip and the December trip. I have got to get out and walk more, though, and get off some of the weight I have picked up since the surgery. The two things I really notice is that I have to take small strides, and I can't plant and turn. I have to turn my body more, rather than twist my knee. Occasionally, there will be a pain like a pull, but for the most part, I don't even think about it any more.

We have used all five of our snow days now. If we have any more, we will have to make them up. We work them every year and get nothing in return, so this has been nice.



"He really is a sweet kid, and he's cute and smart, but boy, can he talk!!!"

This made me LOL. Someone will be saying similar things about my daughter in a couple of years time when she starts school! :rotfl:

Jill said she figures Brooklynn will get some notes about talking in school, too. I have had lots of students who have a little problem with talking, but this kid is truly over the top. He was reading a book today while I was doing some testing, and when I realized I hadn't heard him talking in a few minutes, I thought he had left the room! I literally said, "Where did C go?" He was sitting in a corner reading. :)
 
I always enjoy knowing where DIS friends are when they are there. It brings it a little closer to me for a minute.

You can PM me your number if you want to! I'd be happy to send you live updates!

I love the group picture :)
 
Oh, I love skee ball! I didn't know they had that at Disney. Is that new?

I know that family shot makes you grin from ear to ear. What a blessing to have your whole family at Disney with you!
 
Too cute about Brooklynn speeding!
Great group picture but can we please get you in there next time. One day you'll be glad to have a big group shot.
I love getting live updates too. If next weekend works out I'll text you updates/pictures of you want.:goodvibes

when it comes to Disney things, I know, but I think a few of you also like those live updates, as well.

i love them! :goodvibes it allows me to pretend i'm there with you! plus it's just neat knowing that a friend is having fun at disney while i'm sitting in the courtroom listening to attorneys argue over nothing.

how did everyone like space mountain?
 
I Love the live updates too! It was so fun to get bits and pieces of how your trip was going. :)

Great group pic! Too bad it doesn't include you. ;)

Another Disney Store closing....we won't have any left...:sad2:

I hope the 'girls' will be able to visit this weekend. :goodvibes

I had a laugh when you told us about Brooklynn playing the games without money. I used to to that with Aaron when he was small. He had just as much fun as when he played with money. :laughing:

Oh, to be young and so easily amused!
 
You can PM me your number if you want to! I'd be happy to send you live updates!

I love the group picture :)

Will you be putting pictures on Facebook or Twitter? That will be a good way for a lot of people to share in on your fun.

I was glad to have the group picture. They had fun riding Space Mountain together.

I don't know if it is new, because I haven't frequented the Space Mountain arcade. I was just there this time to hang out with the girls. Maybe someone else can give us more insight into that question.

It is, indeed, a blessing. I hope to see that group grow and add many more smiling faces into my pictures. :)

I promise nothing when it comes to pictures. I despise being in them, and I'm not even thrilled with the 'hidden' ones.

I may be getting a good dose of live Disney next week! :goodvibes



i love them! :goodvibes it allows me to pretend i'm there with you! plus it's just neat knowing that a friend is having fun at disney while i'm sitting in the courtroom listening to attorneys argue over nothing.

how did everyone like space mountain?

They liked it. Trent said I need to ride the new version. Drew and I were going to ride on an EMH night, but the wait was a true 50 minutes. We decided we could do 3-4 other things in that time, and we were right, and we never got back over to SM.

We are sad about losing our other Disney Store. Now we don't have one around for about three hours, and that's no good at all!

If it doesn't snow, we are planning to meet at Cool Springs tomorrow.

I loved watching Brooklynn as she drove the various cars and motorcycles. She was happily occupied. She did enjoying playing Skee Ball for real, though, but she had to have helping rolling the ball hard enough to get any points. :)
