So glad that you are liking your new job! New jobs are always tough to start, and it sounds like they gave you a run for your money, but you handled it like a champ!
Do I even need to say it? Nope, but I will anyway....awesome update! Love the pics from EE! I have to say I love that ride but with my motion sickness I can only ride it once per trip...
Flametree sounds yummy! We have never eaten there, and will miss it on our December trip since have an ADR at Yak & Yeti.
The pics of you guys in front of EE are all so good! The lighting and everything is perfect! Poor Landon and teething! I know how horrible that is! Olivia was getting her 2 year molars on last years trip, and was living on teething tablets and orajel!
I'm so glad you were able to see FOTLK!!! It is by far our favorite show in all of WDW and we cannot go to AK without seeing it at least once! We have probably seen it about 15 times and every single time we have sat in the warthog section!! I think I might have a heart attack if they seated us somewhere else! Olivia and I love the acrobat monkeys and my DH loves the "fire guy" as Olivia calls him.
Once again, I can't wait for another update!
Thanks!! They definitely started me out rough. I'm liking it though and have been told by all my coworkers that it's not usually that insane...so now, hopefully the rest of the time will be a breeze!!
Ahh I would be so sad if I had motion sickness. I'm glad you can enjoy at least once a trip though...EE is a fantastic ride.
The lighting was perfect for those pics. I love it because it wasn't too bright so we weren't all squinty haha.
Aw FotLK is great. The Warthog section would be fun too. Landon would love that...he enjoys making that noise. Gooftball.
I love with the exception of the girl half-heartedly putting her arms up behind you, everyone else in your Everest pic looks just as bored as Dustin! LOL
I'm glad you've settled into your job nicely-- my commute is 45 minutes, but once I get over the terrible rush-hour zone, I can enjoy my iPod and the peace. It's nice!
Yeah, everyone just makes me look like even more of a freak when they all look so not into it and I look like its the greatest moment of my life.
Hopefully your rush hour zone isn't too bad! Mine isn't at all!! So I'm okay with it.
The kid behind Dustin on EE looks scared to open his eyes.
I've never tried Flame Tree BBQ but thinking about going there this trip. I'm not a huge fan of BBQ sauce but I'm sure I can find something I'll like. I don't know much about the CS places in AK. That's the one park I feel like I'm slacking on!
Goofy! I love Goofy!!
Last time we saw FOTLK, we were in the warthog section.

I want to see the show again. It's one of my favorite movies.
Great update! Glad the new job is going well!
Sometimes the best parts of ride pictures is the people are you!! (This is semi-foreshadowing...you have to wait until DHS day though.)
I think you're weird for not like BBQ sauce. haha. Jk. I think you would probably enjoy the pork sandwich we got if you didn't put the sauce on? We put in on ourselves. I think they also have the Picnic in the Park, which sounds good. And the Pizzafari. Maybe one day I'll try them.
You must go see FotLK again!! I wanted to be picked so bad...I would've put my heart and soul in it. But my getting picked luck didn't start in AK. (More foreshadowing, lol!)
I'm so glad you got your Yeti

It's a good thing you got it right there and then, wouldn't want you forgetting about it! I know if I would've been like "I'll get it when we're leaving" I totally would have forgotten, and we normally only go to AK once a trip, so I would've lost my chance.
Love the EE ride pics, you always look like you're having such fun
I'm SO glad I got my yeti too!! Landon is in love with him as well. He just fits in so nicely with our family. We only go to AK once too, so I needed to cease the moment!
Too many good pics to comment on!! I love all of the photopass ones with Everest in the back, those came out nice. Your ride photo with Dustin, he looks like he is bored/trying not to get sick
Those ducks at flame tree!! They were biting at our legs/butts while we were eating lunch last October there, thankfully there were little kids running around after them to shoo them away!
Thanks!! I will probably always hold Dustin's face in that pic against him. Hehe!
Those ducks are outrageous. Thank goodness for kids who are equally outrageous. Haha!
Those pics with EE in the background turned out SO good!!
Thanks girl!!
The EE photopass pics are gorgeous! The color is just perfect on them. I really want to try Flametree, but the day I wanted to go there it's closed.

Maybe it will reopen earlier than scheduled..that would make my day!
I adore FOTLK and I love the girl who's the bird too. So graceful and beautiful.
Thanks, I love them too!! That would be awesome if Flametree opened early than anticipated!! I bet you would love it!! Where are you thinking instead of there since it's closed?
Awww I seriously love AK so much and you're making me miss it even more than usual...but that's a good thing!
The PP photographers got some really great shots of you guys! I love the ones where EE is in the background and the ones of you and Steph with Goofy are too cute.
You're so lucky to have such amazing friends who love Landon so much. He is so lucky too!
Glad to hear your job is going so well, I wish something new would come along for me too. I remember you had a couple of other trips planned for the rest of this year and next. Which ones are you going on? Any chance you'll be there next July?
Aw...I miss it so much too. We need to go back.
I just LOVE Photopass. We were getting great pics at AK all. I would cry if Photopass didn't exist!!
I am truly so completely blessed that I have so many great, supportive friends who love Landon so much. Stephanie always tells me how Dustin will just randomly be like "I miss Landon!" They're just so cute.
Okay so Christmas this year isn't working out. (Has Lauren told you why?) But Lauren and I still want to go on a trip together...we could totally do July. Is that when you are going? I have decided to not go there for my 21st. There are no deals for that time because it's right in the middle of Spring Break season. Later in the week when I was hanging out with my friend who is a CM, he told me that Spring Break was busier than he had seen all summer and they were closed due to capacity daily. So I don't really want to deal with that for my birthday. I can just have a delayed celebration!! So let me know what time you are thinking!!
I hope you find something new soon!! Hopefully things work out with FL...that'd be ideal!! Can't wait to hear about that!
Expedition Everest looks awesome in all of your pictures! Same goes for the Tree of Life! omg omg Did you take Landon to see A bugs Life or whatever that show is inside of the Tree??? I don't think I can fight the urge to take Conner lol is that mean? So glad that you all enjoy the Lion King show, I'll have to request your lion section.
Thanks!! Landon and I actually didn't go see It's Tough to be a Bug!! There's a good reason why though and we'll get to it in my next update!! Totally get the lion section...the others are elephant, giraffe and warthog. I think the lion is the coolest!! haha. So fun!
