~~ Sew hot, Hot, HOT! ~~ A sweltering Aug 2013 TR ~ Pre-Trippie link posted! ~ 10/31!

When we were at typhoon lagoon a hairy man wearing a speedo kept bumping into me in the lazy river. He would just look at me and say "Sorry, I can't help."

(sorry but that is funny since it wasn't happening to me).

Today's outtake is too funny.

Love that picture of the girls in front of BB.

Your day at the water park sounds like fun. A perfect activity for a hot summer day. How fun that you got to spend some time with Bernadette and her family. And you even got a little relaxing in the lounge chairs Good idea to leave the spaces for the pictures from the PP (didn't know they did that at the water parks either). I never thought about running out of picture space in your original posts but I would happily click a link to see your PPs pictures and Allie's shots.

Thanks for the info on the PP+ pre-order. I think I will be heading to Target today to get some gift cards. I am getting excited about our trip. Curtis is happily crossing off the days on the countdown calendar I printed out but then I showed him the countdown on my phone and he told me "now I don't have to keep track". Silly boy doesn't realize that is half the fun. Yesterday we ordered our custom maps on the Disney site (although we probably won't get them until after our trip). It was good to go over which rides / activities he wanted to do since there were a few surprises on his list. He told me he wanted to do Playhouse Disney at HS and then said "I just want to do it one last time because I like to watch the little kids having fun" Melted my heart since I know he wants to do it but thinks he is too big for Playhouse Disney.

I'm also getting stressed out because I have a ton of sewing I want to do but I am stalled.

Hi Sarah!!! It's great to see you - it's been so long!!! How are those adorable girls doing? DO you have another trip planned?

Hi! The girls are wonderful - thanks for asking! They started 1st grade last week. We are still trying to determine when our next trip will be - I think we are looking at Aug 2014. I've come to the conclusion that August trips are like giving birth. You forget the pain - or in this case, the heat.

I may have to do a PTR - there's going to be lots of sewing involved.

We haven't been brave enough to check out the water parks - sounds like you all had a great time!

Yesterday, Alli created her own user name on The Dis... She plans to update my TR with some of the pictures she took on our trip. She is a bit nervous about this, and I don't know when she will get a chance to do it - as she wants to edit them all, so it may be weeks... But I wanted to let you all know that she may be around a little bit.

Yay! Hi Alli Welcome to the DIS! There's no hope for you now! (hey, how come there is no Evil Queen smiley guy??)

Thankfully Suzi had done a bit of research on AoA and knew which part of the food court to sit in, which was the least crowded (I forgot which part that was though - but when exiting the food court - it's way to the right).

Ummm...is it Lion King or Cars?? Can't remember....Looks like Lion King from the pictures on Bing.

I love this picture of Suzi and I - it's one of the only ones of just us together.

Aww...that is a great shot. I hope Sara has this on her phone too!

I saw my friend Suzie - it's been a year already.

Hi Bob!



Blizzard Beach looks fun. I was LOLing about you trying to get in the float at the Lazy River. That is sooooo me!

We went to Typhoon Lagoon one year, spent about 45 minutes in the lazy river, did two of the Crusher Gusher water coasters and were back at the resort by, like, 1:45. But we are neither teenagers or huge pool people. If I was a teen, I'd spend as much time at the H20 parks as possible.

You met up with so many people this trip! I'm hoping to meet at least Ruthie, even if it's just a wave and a quick "How's Maxine and the pack?" Oh, and a co-worker will be overlapping trips for a couple of days (he and his wife are DVC and headed down there this Thursday!!)

I'm sure you'll find something to fill up your sewing room time - besides the super-secret super project.
I'm limiting myself to what I have in my stash for my bag and trying to keep the pockets to a minimum (DH says that's impossible) I think I've found my fabrics, now I just need to cut, interface, adjust, add on features and finally sew. No problem (but I do have to work 40+ hours a week, get the car serviced and so on.)

I missed so much over the weekend! I cannot wait to try Blizzard Beach! TL opened when I lived in FL and I never got to go. I have always wanted to try a Disney waterpark...now I finally get to!!!

Alli cracks me up how she hams it up for the pictures. She has to be SO FUN to hang out with!

[sweetpeaandevie]

Alli! Welcome, we hear so much about you I feel like I know you already!!!

I'm excited to see your pics, everyone has a different perspective on things!!!

BTW, I already told your mom, you should take up modeling

 

[STLMickeyMom]

Hi-I've lurked around on your PTR and love looking at all the bags you make! You are some kind of talented, lady!! Anyway, it looks like you girls know how to have some fun at Disney, so I was glad I found your TR and felt like I should finally comment!

You all are brave to go in August! I know the heat would kill me and I'm always a big worrywart about dehydration....I don't know if I could do it.

So I just read all your report so far, so my comments might be a little scattered.

I'm so glad you made it to your reservation at CRT since it was so important to V! We had lunch there on our last trip. Our girls loved it and i thought it was really nice to be called m'lady while eating!

I loved all the pics of AoA. I can't wait to stay there sometime! The food court doesn't sound so fun, but I can't wait to see all the cute themeing! I loved the pics of alli & v with the cars! Especially Alli's poses! :

Well, I just can't remember all I was going to say, but besides being sick, it looks like you've had a lot of fun so far! Can't wait to read more!
