The Greatest Trip There Ever Was!

[Believeinfairytales]

How cute is Landon all mesmerized by space? I love it! I also love Dustin's and Landon's haircuts. They look so handsome!

I'm thinking Buzz, too. Esp since you are in Tomorrowland and we all know how Landon loves him some Toy Story!

 

[princess&her4princes]

So glad things went so well with your resignation, that never gets any easier!! Best wishes on the new job!

Love all the pics! Stephanies face is too funny in the one picture in front of Mickey and Minnie looking at Dustin! They seem like SO much fun! The boys haircuts turned out really well! If my boys didn't just get them for school, I'd so schedule them for there too! Are they super expensive, maybe we'll be due for them, boys hair grow sooo fast!

Love the People Mover...classic, nice quiet down time...Landon did look sleepy!

My DH says thanks for the info about Tebows truck!!!! I would do exactly what you are and trying to find a way to call him!!! On a serious note, if you do get to talk to him, I want EVERY detail!! So glad to hear it wasn't terrible to give your notice and they were so great about it! As for your new company having offices in Florida....put in you request immediately!

No problem!! Hopefully I find a way to come in contact. I'm pretty sure we're meant to be. I always tell people it's "Kimmy and Timmy forever". I will totally give you every detail when that works out for me.

It's funny how Dustin pulled it together for the picture and Stephanie looks like the one who's not cooperating.

Landon looks absolutely amazed in that one picture!

Is his favorite character Buzz?

Dustin and Steph are hilarious!! That picture is so them!

I love when Landon looks so mesmerized!!

Haha...next time I'm going to leave a harder cliffhanger!

It is so scary turning in a notice! I never get used to. I love where I am now & hope I will not ever have to turn in another resignation notice again!
I'm glad your employers were great to you with the news.

I love all your new pics!

That is too cool! Levi is a big Tim Tibow fan! Too bad you were not at work, you could've gotten a pic to post on here!!!!!

I'm glad that you love where you are now!! I hope I can say the same soon!!

One day...hopefully by the end of the season...I will have a picture with me and Tim!!

I love the people mover! Its so nice and relaxing, and its perfect for the middle of the day when you have been running around in the heat!

Your pictures make me so homesick for Disney lol the good thing is I only have 29 days until we leave but who is counting?? lol

Thats awesome that your new job could potentially land you in Florida. My company is based out of Denmark and our ONLY office in the US and caribbean is here in Maryland. So the only way I could end up in Florida is if I became a sales rep and they travel ALL the time. Not that traveling is bad, but it is when you have an 18 month old. What will you do in your new position??

The People Mover is completely relaxing! I can't believe I hadn't been on itbefore!! I love it!!

AHHHH 29 days is nothing!! I can't wait to start my next official countdown!!

Oh I can't imagine having a traveling job with a toddler!! I'm hoping that this job is a good opportunity and opens more doors in the future!! My job title is "billing analyst".

Love your pics!

Thanks!

i think i remember that sign for the people movers when i was there as well.

that is really cool that they have an office in FL, maybe you can work part time at disney if that opens up.

im guessing you saw the buzz lightyear line, we were going to do it, but the line was so long that we didnt think he would wait for it.

I would love a part-time job at Disney! That would mean I could take Landon and go for free ALL THE TIME! And discounts...and oh it'd just be heaven!!

Next time I'm so making a harder cliffhanger!

It depends on the restaurant. Some hostesses just get hourly pay and some they get a lower base pay plus tip share. I've worked at restaurants that did both! I didn't mind paying out tip share to hostesses that helped out (bussed tables) but the one's who were just lazy... why are you taking my money???

I love that picture of Landon looking at 'space!' He looks SO into it.

Hmmmmm, could it be...BUZZ LIGHTYEAR??

Thanks. I hope you find something that pays well and brings in adequate extra money. I tried a 2nd job at a fitness center childcare for the sole reason that I could bring Landon and it was terrible. The stress and just awfulness of the place was NOT worth the extra money. I hope you find a place that is the opposite of that!!

I love when Landon is in the zone!! Haha. Goober.

How cute is Landon all mesmerized by space? I love it! I also love Dustin's and Landon's haircuts. They look so handsome!

I'm thinking Buzz, too. Esp since you are in Tomorrowland and we all know how Landon loves him some Toy Story!

Thanks!!

Man, that sure was a terrible cliffhanger!! I'm sure you all knew before I even had you guys guess!!

So glad things went so well with your resignation, that never gets any easier!! Best wishes on the new job!

Love the People Mover...classic, nice quiet down time...Landon did look sleepy!

Thanks girl!! Hopefully I won't have to give notice too many times in my life.

Dustin and Steph really are a lot of fun!! I'm so glad I got to go with them!! I believe the hair cuts are like $14? I don't think that's too bad, but you do have 2 more boys than me!!

Hey Kimmy!!

I just got ALL Caught up!!! Congrats on the new job!!! I'm so happy that worked out for you Also, thank you for thinking of me while you were there... hehehehe!!!!! you are so sweet!! I LOVE the pics of Landon getting his haircut! (Esp since I'm a hairstylist haha!) how adorable! He is getting SO much bigger!! I can hardly believe how much he's grown! AWWW.. so cute. Sorry I've been MIA ... you wouldn't believe how much I have going on over here... that would be soooo cool if your job could someday transfer you to FL!!! how amazing would that be? Looking forward to more

 

[MickeyisBeast]

Love the update!
I'm so glad y'all rode TTAPM (I love adding the "PM" part to the end ) thanks for the shout out, haha That's so cool Landon loved the stars, and awesome that he said "space"!

That would be so cool if you could eventually get transfered to Florida, that'd just mean more WDW time!

Today at school, they announced that the seniors should go to the meeting for the WDW trip (because WDW has the graduation day or whatever it's called for seniors) I was so jealous! WDW better have that stuff in 4 years when I'm a senior!

 

[klacey1]

Congratulations on the job!! Sounds like a great opportunity for you!
The PeopleMover is perfect for something that's not too stimulating for a sleepy boy-- glad Landon was mesmerized by it!

 

[tinkgurl]

Aw...Landon looks SO into space in that pic! Sometimes Little Guy will be so into something that he won't even notice if I wave my hand in front of his face.

Hey girl!! I have to remember...I have something I need to fedex your way.

Of course I was thinking of you!! I didn't know you were a hair stylist!! That's so fun!!

Sounds like your life has been crazy!! I hope good crazy though!! Now I'm going to have to go catch up on your tr!!

I would love to move to FL too!! Then I would have a good hair stylist near-by!

Love the update!

Thanks girl!! I totally thought of you on TTAPM!! Landon and I both loved it!

I would LOVE more WDW time! That'd be so awesome!! I hope they have a WDW senior trip for you setup!! That's awesome. My school usually had senior trips to Mexico but the cheerleaders went every year for Nationals! I hated it! I was so jealous!

Congratulations on the job!! Sounds like a great opportunity for you!

Thank you!! PeopleMover was perfect for my little man!

I love how into stuff they get. So cute.

First, I realized I had a few more pics from Steph's camera that I forgot to put up!

We stopped by the mosiacs at some point that morning!

This is on the train to show how long Dustin's hair was. LOL!

Dustin's haircut!

And it turns out that Steph did get a pic of the boys together after their hair cuts! Notice the "pirate dust" in Dustin's hair! HA!

Here is Steph all proud of her pins!

Next post is Photo Pass catch up pics! I FINALLY got my cd!!

 

[princess_momma]

Frontier Donald was up first! Here is Landon high-fiving him!

Some pics in front of the castle, of course!

Notice how Landon's hand is in his mouth? Well, last year, he had his first teeth coming in. I'm pretty sure he had 2. This trip, his last ones were coming in. It's the sharp ones whatever their called. So this should be the last trip with his hand in his mouth! Haha!

Flashback Photo Pass, me holding Landon's hand up to wave:

This year, waving all by himself!

And...a jumping pic!!

Do any of you remember one of my goals to have a jumping pic in front of EVERY park's landmark. Do you think I accomplished that?

I LOVE LOVE LOVE how Landon is the only one looking at Tink in this one!!!

Then we got more pics after Dustin's hair cut while my little one was asleep!

He woke up right before this AWESOME pic was taken:

Then some "Princess pictures":

Then we got this two amazingly, fabulous pics. They may be some of my favorites!

After that, we went to Tomorrowland and now you're all caught up!

 

[princess_momma]

Well…everyone was right. Haha. Next time I’ll try to make it a little harder. We saw Buzz from the People Mover and knew we just HAD to book it over there.

The line was ridonkulous but…it was freakin’ Buzz!! Buzz is Landon’s favorite!! So we got in line. Steph went to go grab us some drinks from a quick service and we still had a while to go by the time she got back. We were so hot so we attempted to cool off.

Cute, right? HA! When she got back, Dustin went and got us fastpasses for Buzz’s Space Ranger spin!

Landon did ridiculously good in this line. It really helps how Dustin keeps him entertained too though.

The only time he semi-misbehaved was when he got a glimpse of Buzz and wanted to make a beeline for him! But then we talked and told him to wait his turn and he just looked.

Finally, it was our turn. They were holding us back and saying that Buzz would be right back, he just needed to go re-charge his batteries. But apparently, they were just holding us back for fun and telling the people behind us because they let us go before the switch! Yay! And without further adieu, I give you…my son meeting his hero.

(Is it weird that I always look at this one and think what a cute family portrait it is? Haha. Don’t tell anyone that.)

Dustin went somewhere and Steph and I attempted some hat pics at the Toy Story kiosk that’s in the middle of Tomorrowland.

How goofy do I look? Clearly, I should not attempt to wear hats over my tiara.
(Sidenote: See those ubercute alien shirts? My Halloween idea is to wear that and a blue and purple tutu with leggings or something and be a little green alien for Halloween!! Those shirts were everywhere so I figured I would just pick one up later in the week but could never find my size!! I’ll have to see if I can get it online!)

Then we went on Buzz’s Space Ranger Spin! It was a hoot. Of course, I lost but I promise it’s because I was in a cart by myself thus having to steer AND shoot, while holding a toddler. One day he will be big enough and I will dominate these games!

Then we got the must-do Zurg picture!! Landon loved it and did not want to get out!

I literally had to drag him out!! (Another side note: Landon can say “Zurg!” really well now! Does anyone know anywhere I can find a good Zurg toy? I want him for my…I mean Landon’s collection!)

After that we went to the Carousel of Progress!! Honestly…how did I miss this and People Mover last year? I LOVE THESE RIDES SO MUCH!!

Once it started, Landon was sooooo into it!! I was impressed!! He would say “puppy!!” and point every time we got to a new scene and then as we would rotate, he would always wave goodbye to the guy!! So cute!!

Continued in next post...

 

[princess_momma]

After, we had to make our way back to the front of the park again! We had an ADR at a monorail resort!! Woohoo!! On our way out, we saw some more of Landon’s favorite characters!! Tigger and Pooh!! I’m so, so glad that we stopped for them. Landon was still fresh and not worn out from vacation and this was by far the best character interaction for him of the trip. Prepare yourself for cuteness overload!!

Even with Buzz, he had wanted to hold my hand while hugging him, but he literally ran to Pooh all by himself!

He hugged and hugged and hugged Pooh and silly, impatient mommy told him to hug Tigger and Tigger just shook his head no, and made a gesture like “let him stay, he is loving Pooh!” It was so cute and heartmelting. Tigger eventually got his turn!

Whenever Landon does something really cute (which is all the time), I just have to kiss him. I can’t help it. It’s like I just can’t believe how lucky I am to have someone so cute and perfect that I have to kiss him to make sure he’s real!! The PP photog caught it this time. Haha.

Steph got some lovin too!

Naturally, I wanted my own individual shots!! Haha.

Dustin was too cool to have his pic with them…but there were a few characters, he wanted his own individual shots with! Haha! So fun!!

After our run-in with Tigger and Pooh, we found another PP photog a
nd got one more pic before finally heading out of the MK for dinner!

 

[TwiddleDeeTwiddleDum]

Great pictures! Your DS is so adorable, I just loved seeing the pictures of him with Pooh & Tigger. Brought back some great memories of my DS when he was a tot.

Did Pooh surpass Buzz after this? Or is Buzz still #1 in his book

 

[Dancegrl624]

Oh my goodness. What adorable pics of Landon with Pooh and Tigger! Those guys are just so cuddly.

The photopass pics of you and Landon looking at the Castle are just priceless! You NEED to frame those! I'm such a fan of your jumping pics as well. Wish my family would do those with me!

I love that Landon got to meet Buzz. He can sometimes look a bit scary, so maybe that's why Landon wanted to hold your hand.

Can't wait to hear abour your dinner!

 

[Shannon84]

Great update as usual!! I really love those pics of you guys looking towards the castle with your backs to the camera. I have never seen anyone do that shot before and it looks awesome!!

 

[klacey1]

The picture of you and Landon from behind is perfect-- I love the "where dreams come true" caption you chose, too! Fits perfectly!!
Ahhh!! You were so right about cuteness overload with those pictures! That is adorable that he wanted to keep hugging Pooh!

 

[glennbo123]

Mega updates Kimmy! Love all the pictures!

 

[cassie1982]

I love your TR.. your trip looked like it was alot of fun.. Your little Landon is sooo adorable. I love all the Winnie the Pooh Pics... What a cutie he is!!

 

[Cat0727]

Love all the pics! Landon and Winnie are so cute!

My favorite is the one of you and Landon with your backs to the camera looking at the castle...beautiful shot!

 

[Disneybuckeye]

Great updates and loved the pictures. Congrats on the new job too! Can't wait to read more.
