Eeep... Love your MK day!!! It's gonna be hard to wait 3 days... Dontcha think? I am not sure I could do it... Wait - I might be doing it? LOL
hello! it is going to be hard waiting 3 days.. But i am a crowd level junkie, as you know i don't do well in crowds! I'm not a people person. and your the one writing the PTR?!?! you don't even know your own plans! ha ha ha ha ha
I just love that photo of the midgets looking at the castle from the trian station - I think it's a good photo for a now n' then? Not sure, you are the expert.
yep it's a new one. Wish i had them from the start. better late then never?!?!
Lov the Olaf picture in front of the castle.
Thanks.
And a level 2 crowd... Life is good, very very good.

Have a great weekend this weekend.

D~
yes. I am in love with the crowd levels this year.
I love the low crowds too. I guess we have never been there for REALLY crowded but on the days when it has been 5-6 I can hardly stand it so I could NEVER go on holidays or summer.
Plans sound great.
I am not a crowd person.. I am not a huge people person either. HA HA. stupid people in large groups would put me over the edge. I try to go at the lowest levels i can!!!
Love your plans so far! I can't believe you can wait 3 days to get to MK. We always have to make that our first park day.
i know! I am a crowd level watcher and this was the best day so far. Unless it's a party day, i would rather have a whole day at the magic place!
You HAVE to meet Talking Mickey! Leave your kids in the dust if they don't want to. You need to do it! My girls mention talking Mickey at least once a week. Usually more.
Oh my friend i WILL meet him this time around. i don't care who is with me!
I'm so glad you are going to Prime Time. You are the perfect family for it. We've never actually been there, but from what I've read, it's very much like Ed Debevic's, and I LIVED that for 7 years. I would have loved waiting on you guys.
ha! i really am excited for this one!!! i really hope we have a great server!!!
Do the Agent P missions! You won't regret it. Jason has a hard time letting the girls control the phone, too. I have to remind him he is the adult!
yep! we will be all over this one too.. I love it gives the kids something to do while in the showcase! yay!!!
Love your Field Museum pics. We need to get there and see Sue. We can get in for free with our Milwaukee Museum pass. And the forgetting your battery thing? Remember when my family went to MSI in November to see the Disney exhibit? Remember who forgot the camera battery? ME! Stupid Me! For the DIsney exhibit! I seriously wanted to punch myself in the face.
Yeah i didn't bring it up again I was going to leave it in the past! HA HA HA... Yes total moron moment. it's mine and i own up to it..
And I'm sorry for Meg and all her drama. I hate that it starts so early with girls.

Lucy is 8 1/2 and she's managed to avoid it, but some of her friends have gotten caught up in it.
Oh yes. i am NOT up for this kind of crap. i know it will get worse as they get older, I just PRAY i have raised them to ignore the nonsense walk away from it.
Yay for MK! I usually have to start my trip there, not sure I could wait till day three.
it's NOT going to be easy.. When the hours come out if they have EMH this day we will hop on over there!!!
All of your plans sound wonderful, wish I was there right now.
You and me both.. Instead i am looking out my office window watching more snow fall...
Definitely try the twilight shots from the Treehouse if you have time. I'm sure your photos will be beautiful! I really want to try to photograph Wishes from up there sometime. Of course it would be hard to give up watching the show from Main Street in order to do that.
YES! So you know if this is a high sought out place? will there be a lot of people trying to do the same thing?!?! ohhh Wishes up there.. hummmmmmmmmmm......
I hope you get BOG, did you see that they are open for breakfast now? Maybe that will take some of the pressure off of dinner.
Me too.. I am going to try for it in the later part of our trip. I know i wont be able to get it for this day. But hey a girl can try right?!?!
Yes i saw it was open for Breakfast. I do hope the pressure will be off of the dinners!
I love that you put pictures in here...I need to steal this idea! LOL!
Thanks! steal away! love visuals!
Love your plans! It is going to be totally weird to be spending time in the meet & greet lines for me this trip...not something we have done in the past. But not only do I have the princess lines for the little one, but will also have the star wars lines for the big one!
Thank you! You will love the characters!!!! they are a hoot!
Do your own version of BB/PL. At Halloween time, hit the makeup/hair area and stock up! Then you can probably do more than one style for each kid during the week. Or you could have one morning set aside for each kiddo. Of course this would be assuming this would get everyone up and moving early in the am to be able to do this. But it would be a whole lot cheaper and more custom (you could even make mickey head cutout stencils to spray on their hair. Oh the ideas going through my little brain.
do you really think i will have this kind of time in the am?!?! Have you read my trip report?!?!
I have a few ideas which i will post after my replies!
I can't blame you for the Ana/Elsa FP. I really don't want to use one for my almost 2 year old, but my niece is also going, and I think it will make a cute pic.
HI!
No, i am not going to use a FP for Ana and Elsa. I don't think it was worth it. Don't get me wrong Ana was a lot of fun. Elsa was kinda boring... AWKWARD...
The picture that we have with Mickey Mouse to the left was the only character I ever met as an adult.
and your about to meet a LOT more! have fun with them! Use their story lines with them and watch the magic happen!!!
I am jealous of the level 2 crowds! It will be a 4/5 when we go! One day we will make it to the Halloween Party!!
ahh yes! I am really happy about these crowd levels!!! are you going to the
MNSSHP? I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Plans look good, but day three?! How can you be in WDW and not go immediately to MK? Heck, if I'm near Orlando I wanna go to MK!
ha! all about crowd levels my friend. and block out dates.. and party days...
Low crowds are always a plus! Those FP+ are probably still good to have though, especially for the newest ride.
absolutely... Mine train over and over again!!!
I adore that you have photo redos. I really love the shadow shot of the kids on the train platform.
Thank you! I will try to get a lot of the redo's each trip and i am SURE each trip these kids will have more and more fun with them!!!
It was OK hope your's was great!
Wow - I needed a diversion from life and I am getting it reading all of your ideas - so wonderful.
Thanks!!! I will have a lot more in a moment!!!
Not to put a damper on this great PTR, but Mom passed on to heaven St. Paddy's day.
Oh no.. I am so so sorry to hear this. prayers to you and your family. Hugs to you
Yes, its so hard and then I have been trying to plan everything being 3 hours away. Two trips to Houston and another one Monday.
I hope it all went smoothly for you and your in the healing process now.
I love reading the PTR and TR and seeing ya'll's pics of parents. I saw your Mom Mo when you did the Big Reveal in September - that was wonderful to see. I always feel like shouting to you guys APPRECIATE EACH DAY YOU HAVE WITH YOUR MOM AND/OR DAD. Life is so short and you never know what it brings. Enough of this.
I lost my Dad when i was 17 He was in a motorcycle accident. I understand the importance of parents, My mom is a great person... She loves to do fun little things with the kids too she was ALL over helping with the surprise!!!
I also am very lucky to have a step-father who treats me like his own. He has all my respect for taking and loving a jerky 17 year old. He also treats my kids better then anyone.
On to better things - I am drooling all over my laptop seeing your growing list of food for Epcot day. Yes, I feel your pain, I would need several boxes of Zantac. But, enjoying every minute of it! And the drinks, that would be my dessert. Yummmmmm.
Yes. I have started my inventory of tums rolaids and anything other kind of medicinal help for my tummy...
I have 2 boys; believe me, the boy drama in middle school is completely out of hand. Both of my boys, band geeks, had their share of bullying. But it got so bad at one point in time that yes, I stormed the school and set rights to wrongs. It was not pretty but had to be done. You have strong kiddos Mo, keep up the good work. Make them aware of who is on their side in middle school; there are certain teachers I knew I could rely on.
oh no.. I hope they are ok now?!?! Just terrible!!! kids are ruthless aren't they?!? THANKFULLY my boys stick up for the weaker (lack of a better word) some cases they didn't even know the poor kid who was being bullied at the time but did take care of the brat.. I am a proud mom! HA HA
Following along and enjoying every minute! Carol
I am so glad to have you along!!!!
Crowd level 2??!!!?? I'm excited for you already!!! We've never done harmony barber shop but that pic of your hair just makes me so happy! I'd vote yes on that.
YES! a 2!!! How awesome is MK going to be with a level of 2!!! oh harmony is a blast!!! today i plan on checking more into what they have to offer.. we had a lot of fun with them! I will post a picture of Meg with harmony too..
And yes on night time dumbo. Why do we always miss that?
You must remember to do this!!!
Can't think of anything you've missed. Just too excited about that crowd level!
Me too!!!!!
We'll be in MK this day too at some point. It will be our last day

We like to start and finish at MK.
HUH? you mean to tell me ALL of my days are corresponding to yours?!?! we are awesome planners aren't we! probably should let D in on your plans as she mentioned above she has no clue.. time to make some plans over in that PTR of hers! HA HA
Crowd levels are going to be amazing after three years of summer craziness!
your never going to go in the craziness of your summer again after these low crowds!!!
I love the train station photo. I like them being dark and Main Street so bright in contrast. Love!
Thanks!!! i try!
Great update! Where do you get your crowd levels? We will be there the same dates so I am LOVING the 2!!
I use touring plans right now. i have a subscription!!

I am in dire need of new living room furniture..
Yesterday I didn't have to work. I had an entire day off! so i was LAZY!! very very lazy!
I bought the kids the movie mocking jay part 1. when we watched a bit of it i was confused.... So i figured i would re-watch the second movie again. Catching fire!
i did just that. then i watched part one again. made a LOT more sense!!! HA HA!
Then if you didn't know ABC family had Disney movies all day. and that is exactly what we did! pizza disney movie day! I LOVED EVERY Minute of it.
Today?
this terrible horrific weather we are having. is calling for 6 inches of SNOW.. Can you believe this??? Did someone forget to let Mother nature know it was spring? did she see her shadow!?? WTH is going on with this weather! 6 inches..

needless to say i am not so happy about it. Last week we hit 70... this week snow. I didn't know Mother Nature was bi-polar.
