I can't believe how close your due date is!!!! I'm sos excited and happy for you guys. BTW, Happy belated Mother's Day!
Okay... Photobucket is in infuriating me right now! I tried to rotate one photo and it told me it couldn't but then it flipped the rest of my album upside down or sideways, no joke! I gave up on it last night and hoped today it would be working better but it's not. Does anyone have any suggestions? In the meantime, I'm just going to keep writing updates in Word without pictures and whenever this gets resolved I'll add the photos and post. Doesn't Photobucket know I don't have time for this!? I'm on the clock!
I HATE PB SOMETIMES FOR THIS REASON! I ended up editing my photos in iPhoto before uploading to PB. Although a long time ago, I never had issues reformatting the photos but now with this 'newer' version it never saves the flipped photo.
the jalapeno cheese pretzel!
DH said yum!
Oops. We probably should have planned that better. I didn’t know we wouldn’t be allowed to bring food/drink inside. So we put the food away for later and it was totally worth it because this show is amazing.
That is a genuinely scared face!
take the Orange Line to the Settlement Outpost.
Orange Line!? So do they have their own internal bus system? I had not idea it was this big.
Wow you really did get great seats.
Looking back from our table. DH thinks he's "getting" me by photobombing but now his silly face is on the internet. Who gets the last laugh now!? 
Exactly!
Nothing better than ice cold (hopefully super sweet!) tea out of a mason jar
Stop now. This looks delicious!
Ugh, these people…
I considered going in alone but I’m not enough of a MSEP fan to sit and watch it by myself, plus the lines for the buses looked really short at the moment, so I decided to go back to AoA with the party poopers.
I opened my eyes at 7 something and it crossed my mind for a minute to go to DHS on my own but it didn't take me long to decide that I was just too tired and fell right back asleep until after 9. Which is so late for me.
This is very unlike you.
I was really disappointed that the sound feature under the water was broken.
What?! What happens??
I ended up pouring oil out of my bowl which was pretty gross.
That's just nasty.
If you are a hardcore chocolate lover I would have to say it was fantastic.
Welp, guess i'm going to have to try this.
A bus finally arrived at 2:00 and we had a FP+ for Space Mountain from 1:05-2:05 so that had to be changed. Unfortunately the only availability we could find was from 8:45-9:45 which meant we wouldn't be able to get a 4th FP+ until after that, instead of being able to get one after our originally scheduled last FP+ which was BTMRR at 3 or 4 something. I was pretty frustrated and having some very mixed feelings about FP+ in that moment.
Ugh exactly. I had never really thought about it until like the second to last day of our trip that if we scheduled something late, we'd have to wait till after that.
(Side note: Did I hear something about now/soon being able to schedule more FP+ as you use them instead of after using all 3?)
STOP SERIOUSLY?!? Oh please, please, please let this be true.
We arrived at MK at 2:20 and went right to Splash. It was SO HOT OUT! The sun was so incredibly strong.
Although it's hot, it looks gorgeous out!
Great shot!
So like we often do, we planned out a ride photo for the drop. We didn't think we were doing anything inappropriate, but when we got off we saw that our ride photo had been "washed away!"
We assumed the other people in our log must have been doing something inappropriate so we waited on a decently long line to find out if we could get the photo anyway. When I got to the front I asked the CM for our picture and she looked at it on her computer screen and said something along the lines of, "I'm sorry but you can't have it because it violates Disney's rules." I asked her if it was us or the other people in our log and she said it was us!
Oh my gosh! I was a Disney Rebel! I had broken the rules! I was so surprised and so upset. And worst of all, I was really bothered by the idea that we had ruined another family's ride photo! Well... I really hope that the other people had magic bands with Memory Maker because the photo still linked to our account! We just didn't realize it until way later.
Are you serious? That's just plain stupid and annoying. It's not like you were making obscene gestures or flashing
And i'm sure the other guests in your boat would have laughed it off too, because I would have. I wish the CM's would choose a little more wisely with what is and isn't appropriate.
We got on the FP+ line and started walking through the queue when all of a sudden a girl and her father stepped in front of me as though I was invisible And I'm not talking about a mob of people merging together. We were well established on the line and they just completely and blatantly cut in front of me like I wasn't there. Then a minute later four more people cut in front of us to join them. I was furious but kept my mouth shut 
Well, sometimes *history* repeats itself... (see what I did there?
)
In this room the CM asked for volunteers and my charming and mature husband started boisterously pointing at me. The CM then walked right up to DH and said, "You're volunteering!"
I kept highlighting one photo to quote because it was hilarious and then I just kept scrolling and the pics kept getting more and more hilarious!
These are just fantastic!
Poor kid with his head cut off by the bicep!
He has the same expression as the gargoyle
This is very accurate.
I love steak fries too!
Hmm... apparently the rest of us didn't get the memo to make scary faces, including Beast
Good job DH!
He was really getting into it. His adrenaline still must have been up from his performance as a knight
When we were done with our pictures, the room was still completely empty. We said good-bye to Beast but as we were walking out he started tiptoeing behind us making scary gestures when he thought we couldn't see. When we turned around he would act all innocent and casual, leaning against the wall like he was just chillin'
It was SO funny! Then when we'd turn to walk away again he would go back to stalking us and making scary gestures again. And when we stopped and turned around he acted all innocent! This kept repeating until we were all the way out into the hallway and main entrance. He then hid behind a curtain and peeked out and waved at us. It was so so so hilarious. I guess he was really bored. I wish it was captured on film. M and I then went to the bathroom in the castle and when we came out DH told us that while we were in there the Beast stayed in the entrance and was "talking" to the CMs there (meaning he was making in-character gestures). What a fun interaction after a great meal!
Such a great interaction!
Up next we did the People Mover. Once again I was the only one who really wanted to do it and was about to go on alone but then everyone else felt bad and decided to join. It was empty and we decided to split up so we would have more room to take a relaxing ride. It was perfect, as always, and we got to enjoy views of the gorgeous sunset too.
Okay I just don't get it. It's not like it takes much effort to go up a
moving walkway, sit on a nice, slow, relaxing ride through tomorrowland with that amazing sunset and castle as your backdrop
So gorgeous!
Yuck.
Right before we got to the loading area S decided to exit because he didn't feel up to riding.
WHAT?!!? He waited all that time and bounced?!
These look delicious!
I decided to then put my camera down and just enjoy watching and taking it all in. This was the best view of Wishes I'd had in years (although to be honest, watching it from New Fantasyland earlier in the trip and being surrounded by fireworks was frickin' awesome!)
I would love to do this! Was there many small children in this area that you noticed? I'm more concerned about the loudness.
The lines for the bus were long but there were CMs there asking if people wanted to step aside and wait for seats on the next bus. Turns out, lots of people did so we were able to get the last 4 standing room spots on a bus with no wait!
Uh, i'd rather just get to where i'm going than worrying about seating for 15 minutes
CHILLS! I HATE bees, wasps, hornets, etc. And seeing their nests just grosses me out. I see them all over our house and instantly gives me chills. I'm shocked the CM's didn't take care of this sooner.
), today we resumed the proper Disney touring strategy and all got up early. It was our last full day, after all 
Oops.
Can you imagine!!??!?!? 
DRINK #1: Dos Equis ($8.52)
Unfortunately, even though he clearly has an appreciation for WDW, he definitely isn't desperate to go back anytime soon. He knows that I want to take the baby while she's still free and he's on the fence about her still being too young at 3. I, of course, disagree, and we'll see how things go. But in my head, I'm already started to mull over the possibilities for a late fall trip in 2017 when she's 2 and a half... 
He was 11 drinks deep at this point and with one still to go I needed to try to ensure that we wouldn't have to cut our last full day short due to the extreme "silliness" that was ensuing. He had no idea that part of his drink was missing when he got out of the bathroom. That may have been because he was too distracted chasing the ducks.
I think if you handle the trips and I handle the food, together we make a whole trip/dining reporter ; )
