"She's Looking at Food Pictures Again!" A February Family Vacation! COMPLETE 8/14

Oh my gosh, my fiance and I LOVE doing the drawing classes at the Magic of Disney Animation! I think we did it 3 times one trip! :laughing: We drew Tigger, Piglet, and I cannot think of the other one!

We love Pizza Planet! We ate there late one night at one of their tables outside. It was so nice and relaxing that we just sat there and talked forever. Oh and we people watched of course! :laughing:

Yay! You got the D&B purse! I have it too and have gotten so many compliments on it on our trips. My sis gave it to me for my college graduation present and she searched long and hard for one that had a good view of Tink and the Castle! :)
 
Your Mom is a super talented drawer! Both of hers turned out amazing!

I love your bag! I got one of the wallets so I can keep my crazy on the inside, it's less embarrassing for Geoff that way.
 
Your family drew some good pictures! I feel like if i went in there I would be banned for doing it so bad:lmao:
 

Yay for your Disney Dooney...aren't they gorgeous, I didn't buy one on my last trip and it is my must do for this one.

I don't think your drawing of tigger looks messed up at all, it looks like you guys had a lot of fun:goodvibes
 
I love your Disney Dooney! :lovestruc I have the wristlet, but the big tote is sooooo much better! I might have to get that on my next trip! :laughing:

Keep up the awesome trip report :thumbsup2
 
Yay a Disney Dooney!

Your Tigger looks perfectly fine to me.

Love the fact you were able to do TSM twice in a row. My kind of day. ;)
 
Hooray for getting your bag! :goodvibes I so want one...I think it's so cute! How long did it take you to pick out the bag with the right placement of the drawings? I feel like I'd be in the store forever trying to pick out just the right one for me.
 
Great upadates!!!! :thumbsup2

What are they doing with Toontown? Are they making it a complete extension of Fantasyland or something else?

I know you said that they are making a Be Our Guest Resteruant (which I am sooooo excited for because Belle is my favorite character ever!) and Under the Sea with Ariel (Is that like Turtle Talk with Crush or is it like Ariel's Grotto?) but do you know any other new attractions/resteraunts that they are making?

Sorry for all the questions!
 
I can't believe how many updates I have missed!!! I love the D and B bag and want that one so I'm jealous lol. I love Pizza Planet too!!!! My friends and I went to Annimation on Tuesday and we did Donald :)
 
Great purchases! I especially love the Mickey sprinkles! O'hana looks delicious, too!

Sorry to hear about your friend and her boy problems! Breakups are terrible, but she sounds wonderful and will end up with an even better prince!

Thank you! I love those sprinkles! I just found them yesterday when I was cleaning out my cupboard! I need to make some cookies or cupcakes soon so I can use them!
And yum, Ohana was great!
And aww I know aren't they :( I hope she does - she deserves to!

I have that bag, too! Don't you love it? I love seeing the Castle and Mickey balloons and Tinkerbell and teacups and the Cheshire Cat and everything else on my bag.

Ohana looks so good. I can't wait to go back there. I thought Casey's seemed really slow the last time we were there, too, although I didn't consider that it might be because of the specialty hot dogs.

I think your Tigger turned out pretty good, even if it was rushed.

It's FANTASTIC!! That's my favorite purse :) I know, I picked it out so I could make sure I had a good view of everything on my bag :thumbsup2
And mmm me either! Haha yeah, it's just an assumption, but I'm guessing it was because of those.
And aww thank you!

Aren't they so fun!? I love that they seem to be doing more types of characters now. A few years ago I only used to get Mickey and Friends.. but nowadays I'm getting tons of different characters!
And aww that's really cute! I bet that was fun - it's a great little spoit!
And YAY isn't it the best!? That's really really nice of your sister! And haha it's very important for there to be a good view of all of the characters :thumbsup2

Your Mom is a super talented drawer! Both of hers turned out amazing!

I love your bag! I got one of the wallets so I can keep my crazy on the inside, it's less embarrassing for Geoff that way.

Aww thank you! I'll tell her you said that - she'll be so happy!
And aww thank you! Haha that's nice that you have the wallet- I bet it's really cute!!

Ahhh I have that same bag!!!! I love it! :cheer2: :cheer2:What a fabulous birthday gift! :thumbsup2

Isn't it the BEST!? I love it :)

Your family drew some good pictures! I feel like if i went in there I would be banned for doing it so bad:lmao:

Thank you! And noo, trust me you wouldn't! I'm sure you would do just fine! :wizard:

Yay for your Disney Dooney...aren't they gorgeous, I didn't buy one on my last trip and it is my must do for this one.

I don't think your drawing of tigger looks messed up at all, it looks like you guys had a lot of fun:goodvibes

They really are fantastic... I know I saw them in January and by the end of the February trip I had to get it. They're too cute to resist. :cutie:
And aww thank you. I don't know.. the mouth seemed all wrong to me. But it's okay! Cuz we had a good time!

I love your Disney Dooney! :lovestruc I have the wristlet, but the big tote is sooooo much better! I might have to get that on my next trip! :laughing:

Keep up the awesome trip report :thumbsup2

Thank you! Haha I bet the wristlet is adorable!! I don't use those.. so I just skipped straight to the big bag. Kristen got the crossover bag in blue - SUPER adorable!!
And thank you! Will do!

Yay a Disney Dooney!

Your Tigger looks perfectly fine to me.

Love the fact you were able to do TSM twice in a row. My kind of day. ;)

YAY!!
And aww thanks. The mouth just made it look all wrong :laughing:
And haha isn't it great?! What a fantastic time.

Hooray for getting your bag! :goodvibes I so want one...I think it's so cute! How long did it take you to pick out the bag with the right placement of the drawings? I feel like I'd be in the store forever trying to pick out just the right one for me.

YAY! They're very cute! And hahaha it took me a long time... I looked at every bag and made sure everything was placed just right before I bought it. I was definitely in there for a long time :laughing:

Great upadates!!!! :thumbsup2

What are they doing with Toontown? Are they making it a complete extension of Fantasyland or something else?

Sorry for all the questions!

Thank you!
They got rid of Toontown completely and they are doubling the size of Fantasyland! Woohoo!
This is what I found for new attractions:
- The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train will take guests on a rollicking, musical ride into the mine “where a million diamonds shine.”
- Join Belle in an enchanting story performance in the Beast's castle library.
Be Our Guest and dine in one of three enchanted rooms inside the Beast's castle.
- Fly with Dumbo high above brand new circus grounds, twice the size of the existing attraction with a new interactive, three-ring circus tent.
- Journey under the sea with Ariel, The Little Mermaid, in her very own attraction.

I don't know a ton of details... but here are a few sites where you can find out more info:

I Love :lovestruc your Disney bag! Great choice

Thank you so much!! :) I love it!​
 
Oh my gosh, I have been lusting over that exact Dooney all year! :lovestruc Do you know if you can use your AP discount on it?!

I love your trip reports by the way! Super cute :)
 
I can't believe how many updates I have missed!!! I love the D and B bag and want that one so I'm jealous lol. I love Pizza Planet too!!!! My friends and I went to Annimation on Tuesday and we did Donald :)

Haha aww it's okay! I got my Wisdom teeth out this week so I've been doing about an update a day :laughing:
Haha I love it!! I hope you get it someday!
And yumm me too! Did you really? That's so cute! You're so lucky that you live there.. are you a full time cast member now?

Oh my gosh, I have been lusting over that exact Dooney all year! :lovestruc Do you know if you can use your AP discount on it?!

I love your trip reports by the way! Super cute :)

Isn't it beautiful?! :goodvibes
And yes you can! We used our AP discount! What a beautiful thing haha
And aww thank you so much! I hope you are having fun reading! :wizard:
 
Holy crap, you are one lucky lady! My parents bought me a Disney Dooney wristlet and I can barely fit my phone and keys into the dang thing! I really want a tote like yours with the princess pattern on it!

Your mom's Grumpy looks amazing!

I can't believe you skipped the Voyage of the Little Mermaid! I have to see it everytime, Ariel is my favorite Disney everything. I cry like a baby everytime I see the show.

I always want to punch Stacy in the face when she talks about Indiana Jones because I have a soft spot for him. I don't need her making a pass at my man :lovestruc

And I love that you are staying at OKW. As a Vacation Club member, I have always felt like it was my home as it was the first resort my parents bought into when I was 7.
 
Hiya!

I've read many, many trip reports and food reports and I have to say that yours is one of my very favourites!:lovestruc

Your photos are gorgeous and I love your positive attitude to everything you encounter at Disney! Wonderful!

Looking at you on the balcony of your villa at OKW I think the villa we stayed in last year is that blue building in the background! Happy times! We were in building 40 and like you we loved OKW - we're hoping to go back someday.....:rolleyes1

Can't wait to read more popcorn::
 
Uggghhh... I'm commenting so late on all your TRs. I never knew I would be so busy this summer. I think Kristen would be totally be commenting way ahead of me right now. >: ( Hehehe Now to the update...

TSM, the ride where the FPs go faster than the speed of light. I've gotten there around the same time as you and the FPs were already at 7:00 at night. That's just insane. I think it goes to show, it would be better off just going in the standby (unless there is an even more insane wait).

I still need to do Magic of Disney Animation during one of my trips. It sounds like a lot of fun and, if I do say so myself, I'm really good at drawing Disney characters. :teeth: Mushu is one of my favorites so I got to agree on his awesome one-liners. Mulan is filled with some great lines and scenes. Probably one of the funnier Disney movies. (: Great Grumpy drawing, btw! :thumbsup2

Love the Green Disney shirt you're wearing. I really want one of those now. I keep on seeing it everywhere from Disney specials to on the DIS itself. It is haunting me *Wee ooo wee ooo* hahahaha I also gotta see the Indiana Jones stunt show, missed it on my last trip :guilty: Oh, well always next time :thumbsup2

Sorry your second Animation Academy Endeavor wasn't that great. It looked like you still enjoyed yourself. (: And then you get a Disney Dooney & Bourke! I still don't entirely understand why most girls on here want those, but they look nice. :teeth:

Can't wait to read more! :mickeyjum

I saw the princess pattern.... oh my GOD it's so cute! I hope you get that one - it's absolutely adorable!
Haha aww I'll tell her! Thank you!
I know... I'm so mad at myself! I rediscovered my love for the Little Mermaid within the past week because I watched the movie... and now I am regretting not seeing it since it's going down for refurb :( Hopefully it won't change too much!
Hahaha oh Stacy. :rotfl: Indiana Jones is attractive... I see why you would get defensive :laughing:
Aww my parents brought me there when I saw 7 or 8, too! And that was the first Disney trip I really remember. It's like home to me, as well!

Hello!
That is so so nice of you! :hug: Thank you very much - I'm glad you're enjoying reading along!
And thank you! I like to capture Disney in it's greatest light - because it is well deserved :wizard:
And aww really!? That's so cool! I hope to go back someday too... it's so beautiful there!

Hahaha it's okay, Timmy! You're off the hook cuz Kristen is in Disney :laughing: And she's having a busy summer too.. so you guys are even.
Yeah, TSM is ridiculous. If the wait is under 25 minutes I would just go Standby.
You would LOVE the Magic of Disney Animation! You need to make that a priority on your next trip. I just feel like you would appreciate it!
And Mulan is a GREAT movie!! I'm so sad because I went to watch it the other day, and it's missing from its case :( Ugh I'm so upset. That is one of my favorite Disney movies!
And thank you about Grumpy!
Haha and thanks about the shirt! I definitely am a diser at heart... I didn't even connect two and two that I was getting lime green and that is the dis color! I love that shirt - you'll have to get one! And yeah, Indiana Jones is a fun show!
And yes, it was still lots of fun! And I'm glad you can understand :laughing: Disney + Purse = MUST HAVE :love:
