Hey Rinky!

Just wanted to let you know that I received my 2 Cinderella Coach pearl holders from "your" seller for our trip later this month and they look great! They even came with necklaces, which I wasn't expecting.

I can't wait to use them on our trip and wanted to thank you so much again for the fantastic and lovely idea!

Yay! I'm SOOO glad you liked them! I hope you have a great time doing the PAP. It's such a fun and unique Disney experience!

That has me wondering if that is where I picked up a computer virus a few weeks ago! I kept hearing of other Dissers having viruses too and thought that was odd. I even mentioned to someone that maybe we were getting something here on the DIS! I'm so glad they have blocked it if that was the problem. I hate that I lost $125 bucks having my computer fixed though!

Jarvis worked on my computer for several hours due to some kind of virus it had gotten. I hope it wasn't DIS related, but maybe there's something to that theory. I hope all is safe now.

I also hope you guys had a great Easter weekend.

Happy Easter, Rinky! Hope the Easter Bunny brought lots of goodies for your DD.

Well, lucky for you that you knew someone smart enough to fix it for you! I was not so fortunate. After what that guy charged me to fix my computer, I am seriously thinking of going back to school for computer repair! I'm glad to hear you got it fixed quickly though. So nice of him to come over and do that for you. He really is a great catch just waiting for some lucky girl, isn't he?

We did have a wonderful Easter. We went to sunrise services which are always so special. Then we had a fantastic Sunday school lesson about how all of the Old Testament prophecies match perfectly with all the events of Easter. So fascinating! Then, the regular service was chocked full of the best music I have heard in a long time! It was such a blessing! After all of that, we had a great meal at my house with my parents and took a nap in the afternoon! Does it get any better than that? I don't think so!

I hope you had a wonderful Easter as well. I saw Trent in your pictures, so I know you were on cloud nine that he was able to be there. I'm so happy for you that he came home. And Bella's fun party with all your family and friends........ sounds like you had a pretty perfect weekend too!

Happy Easter, Rinky! Hope the Easter Bunny brought lots of goodies for your DD.

We did have a wonderful Easter! It was just about as perfect as Easter can get! And DD was quite happy with her Easter basket. She got everything she needed to plant a flower garden. She got a hot pink set of gardening tools, two big bags of flower seeds that attract butterflies and hummingbirds, a packet of sunflower seeds, and a paint-your-own flower pot kit. She also got some cute pencils, an Easter melty beads craft kit, and pink bunny shaped bath fizzies that turned her bath water hot pink, to which she squealed with delight! DH tilled up a spot in the garden for her flower seeds and she planted them all by herself. Now, of'course, she just wants to stare at the ground and ask why she doesn't have any flowers yet! Patience isn't her forte! But she was trilled with everything she got which made the Easter bunny VERY happy because he bought all of it from the dollar bin at Target and Michael's!

I hope you had a fantstic Easter too! You deserve a nice break after all the stress you have had lately. I just read about your gorillas! HILARIOUS! I wish I could have seen that! They are such entertaining animals. I can't believe you have pandas at your zoo. That's a pretty big deal. None of the ones around here have pandas. I would have loved to see them too!

What a cute idea! That Easter Bunny is very creative! You will have to take pics when the flowers come up!

We did have a nice Easter, and I am beginning to feel more human with the time off from school. Those gorillas were cracking us up.

Yes, the pandas are a very big deal to Atlanta -- they have been here for eleven years, and I think they are still as big a draw as they were when they first arrived.

If this TR is still open, I certainly will. It should be pretty!

Glad to hear you had a nice Easter. I know what you mean about feeling human. When I taught, I LIVED for breaks! It was just so hard to go back though.

I would love to see them. Atlanta is about 8 hours for me though. I wonder if they have them at the DC zoo. We want to visit that one someday anyway.

It sounds like you had a great Easter Rinky! Any day you can get a nap in, sounds like a great day to me. The Easter bunny was good to your daughter, wasn't he? What neat ideas!

We did have a great Easter and naps are rare and always appreciated around here! DD loved her gardening stuff. Still no flowers yet, but we got some rain last night, so I am hoping they will start sprouting! Hope you had a wonderful holiday too!

I am so bummed! I just found your trip report and have spent the past week getting caught up only to find out it is all over!! Thanks for a lot of great ideas for my trips with my niece who is a year younger than your DD! I hope we get to see a ticker up there soon for you! There is always room for great trip reports on the DIS!

Oh, I'm sorry that you found me after the party had ended, but I'm glad you enjoyed the TR anyway. Glad I could help you plan some things for a trip with your princess! What a great aunt you must be to take your neice to WDW. I know she must love your dearly! I hope you have a great time with her. Little girls are sooooo much fun to take to Disney!

We are growing a garden at school. and my students were thrilled to see rows of greenery popping up last week. We have a row of peas, three rows of sweet potatoes, and four rows of lettuce - two red and two green - so it'll be pretty when it comes up. We're putting in cucumbers, corn, and tomatoes today.

Wow! I am impressed! I wouldn't have thought it possible to do that kind of thing with your group of kids. I don't think I could have with my students. That's great. I know they enjoy the time outdoors. Kids are designed to get into the dirt and do stuff like that, but so many of them nowadays don't ever play outside. I remember when I was a child, we would stay outside from morning 'til night playing in the garden and the woods. I knew all about God's wonderful creation at a very young age and so many kids now have no clue about those things. I'm glad to hear that you are doing the garden with them. I think that is awesome. They need to know their food doesn't come from the grocery store.

Bought our air tickets today since Jet Blue finally came out with their fares for November and was thinking about your TR which was one of the reasons I chose the November dates I did for our trip this year so came over to say HI . Rumer has it the first MVMCP will be on Nov 12th this year no word on Osborne Lights , I added a day to our trip so if the Lights started same day as the parade we could make them both but ended up calling and changeing back to our original dates today when I saw that one extra day was going to cost an additonal $100+each for our flights. I am disappointed but at least I get to do the Parade I will just have to look at your pictures of the Lights again and again and ........

Well congratulations!!! I am insanely jealous, but happy for you too! Just think of me once or twice while you are there and maybe I won't feel so bad. I hope you have a great time and I really hope the weather and crowds are as good as they have been for me in the past. You need to do a TR so I can see what all went on the week that I should have been there. And don't give up hope on the OL. You might get lucky and get to see them after all. They usually do a soft opening several days before the official starting date so ask about that and maybe it will work out for you. I hope you have a super magical time!

I came in search of Snow White. Is this the right place?

I came in search of Snow White. Is this the right place?

Yep, me too! I was hoping to see the best magic mirror evah!

 

[sjs314]

Thank you Rinky,the idea about checking into a soft opening for the OL is a good one. I bought a new camera (yes already) my other one is a bridge camera and kinda a pain too drag around the parks, this one is small so should be fun once I figure it out

Now about Snow White, did it happen yet? How is Our lil mirror (your DD )doing?

You two are a couple of nuts.......... but really good nuts like a bag of Chip and Dale cashews or something!

One magic mirror, coming up!
