They Don't Eat Hash Browns in Princessland - May 14 COMPLETE! 2/8 pg. 73

[lauren_elizabeth]

Aww your poor toe! I hope when you go back in 3 weeks, the doctors give you some good news and say you're able to start running again. I'll keep my fingers crossed!

So awesome that you had THREE DISmeets in 1 day! Woo hoo!

You scored some pretty cool things from Darth's Mall. I wonder if that guy did end up buying the leggings and is walking around his house wearing them.

Jellyrolls sounds like a fun time!

 

[annie170]

I'm glad you were able to meet up with so many people that day. Jellyrolls sounds like so much fun. We're going to have to try to work that in sometime.

I want that cupcake! Now!

Your dad is just hilarious!

This was literally right before Landon punched Yeti away. It.....was......awesome!



:[/COLOR]

Why must your torture that child? He totally looks ready to swat that thing away. He is like "what the.......?"

I was not brave enough to wait the 45 minutes to enter Darth's Mall when Cynthia did. But she was pretty much in and out with purchases in about that amount of time so I should have stuck it out.

There are really no words for the leggings. I love that hat on Popadon. He totally should have gotten it.

Jelly Rolls was so much fun! I really enjoyed spending our last night there with you guys. I have to take Denny there. It was just so great to know all the songs and have a sing-a-long fest.

Oy to the cab. Our cab driver drove us in the wrong direction just to totally jack up our fee. I really wanted to get angry with him for thinking we were stupid enough to fall for that. We had some winners in the cab driver department this trip (more reason to rent a car).

 

[DisneyJo]

I'm so sorry about your toe, I hope it's healing fast!

It sounds like you had a wonderful day, I love all your purchases and Jelly Rolls sounds so fun

 

[dawnbu40]

I love the pictures of you and your dad with Duffy! Adorable!

Jelly Rolls was so much fun! It's always a must-do for us but even better when shared with is friends! I wish our Nov trips were overlapping. I saw that you arrive the 8th? We leave the 8th Of course I know Caitlin will be excited she gets to see you!

 

[Pluto0809]

I have got to find a way to get to Disney during Star Wars Weekends! That looks like so much fun but May/June is my busiest time at work thanks to budget prep (I'm an accountant too, work for County government) and getting time off then is brutal.

Jellyrolls is another thing on my bucket list to try. We almost went after my cousin's wedding in February but we were tired and headed back to the resort instead.

 

[amazingact21]

Your CM interaction inside Darth's Mall led me to have this mental image of a guy strutting around his house, totally rocking those leggings. I hope he threw caution to the wind and bought them.



It was great bumping into you guys again! I remember Alex and I were walking towards the Backlot Express, and he was saying, "I saw your DIS friend in Darth's Mall. They bought A LOT of stuff...oh, look there they are."



Your mom was not to be messed with in regards to that pin! I don't know what my favorite part of that meet up was. Popadon making Landon laugh with the Duffy bears, his dislike over Yeti, or your mom going:
"Look, I'm a nice person, but let me tell you...don't forget my merchandise."

(Or you going, "Mom. It's right here. In the hat. Jeeeeez.")




Oh my gosh, I can't believe my kid punched Yeti away. That picture...fist ready and everything. Nice Landon. Nice.


And, of course, this the shot of him looking at you either pre or post punch:




Where he is basically saying, "Try it again, Stranger. Just try it."





Smart thinking on Popadon's part, some pre-stretching before TSMM. You really do get an arm workout on that thing.



Oh wow, Jellyrolls sounds like it was an absolute blast. Look at how many DISers were at that table! That had to be awesome, to just sit and chill with family and friends. I can totally see how that would be a highlight of your trip. It's too bad Mary Ellen and Cynthia won't be there during your next trip; you could all have a repeat night. (At least, I don't think they will be...I might've missed something.)



Mmm, your next update title does not bode well. Then again, it implies you actually got up to jog, and that's more than I ever think about doing on vacation, so you've already impressed me.

 

[DWGal210]

Awesome SW merch! Those leggings are too fab. Don't you just love it when you get a fun cast member?

The haul of purchases looks good, too. That Duffy is adorable. I admit, I was not very into Duffy when he was first around but he is growing on me. I just might have to get one of him. The different outfits you can put on him, so cute! It just speaks to my Disney lovin heart.

The night at Jellyrolls looks like a blast. I have never been there but it looks like a ton of fun with some good DIS friends.

 

[missangelalexis]

I'm so sorry about your broken toe

Great PP pics!!

Sounds like you had 2 more great DISmeets!

LOL love Pop's demonstration of what would happen if he at the cupcake.

LOVEEEEE your dress!

Sounds like an amazing night with great people at Jellyrolls!

 

[DVCWDWMEMBER]

First off, a huge to all of my new readers. Thank you guys so much for joining and reading along. It means so much!



As we were heading outside, we ran into Alicia and family again, so we chatted about the merchandise that we got in Darth's Mall and SWW in general. We had a pretty funny moment outside. Mom was showing them the items that she bought, and suddenly couldn't find one of the pins that she purchased. (Please note, she purchased a lot).

So she's digging in the bag, can't find this pin in there. So of course, she does what anyone would do in that moment.

THAT CM FORGOT TO PUT IT IN MY BAG!

She was ready. She was so ready to just storm in there and tell everyone what's up!



I grabbed the bag from her and pulled everything out of this. Alicia can totally attest to this, as they were still there. And what happened? Yup. The pin was totally stuck in the hat that she bought for my Pop.

Oh Momma.

So now I am a Derp.... Love the cat

 

[goofy's_gurl]

Legging equals cool!! Now we need a picture of you posing in them! We got to make sure you rock the legging correctly!

I may have to go to JellyRolls this trip. Hmm, maybe if there is enough time!

All I could think of when I couldn't find that pin was.... No way and now I have to go back in there and wait again I was so glad that Danielle found it in Rick's hat

 

[katt789]

Yay!! Darth's Maul is always fun! Lol, I definitely expected it to be much more insane than it was when we were there but we did notice a lack in good merch left over by the time we got in! You guys certainly pulled out a lot of good stuff!

And YUM that cupcake, I could go for like 5 of those right now!! PB & chocolate are two of my favourite things so the cupcake just makes me super happy lol!

Looks like an amazing and fun awesome night at jelly rolls! Love that place! Might have to crash your night in Nov! bahaha

 

[Neeny17]

What an amazing day! That SWW merchandise is all so great! I would have completely broken the bank in there. That Yoda Duffy is adorable and his t shirt slogan is pretty much my life. Jellyrolls sounds like a fun place! It has been added to the list.

 

[RoyalPrincess]

Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun! I really love the leggings! I'm totally imagining the store clerk wearing them through the house...

Your dress is soooooooooooo cute! Where did you get it at?

 

[DisneyKid4Life]

Hmmm, 15 minute wait for Darth's Mall doesn't actually sounds all that bad.

Oh thank goodness you did a second look for the "missing" pin. I would hate to see a CM get creamed in error. :laughed:

Haha, Landen only loves Ariel, so I guess a Yeti just can't compare.

Oh see, when Pop was exercising his wrist, I assumed he was doing some neat Jedi mind thingy.

Wow, now that is a pretty epic DISmeet going on there at Jellyrolls. How completely awesome!!! I love it!!!

 

[IheartDDuck]

I love those leggings! Please tell me there is a pic of you in them sometime in this TR!

Ugh, I wish I would have known about SWW when I was actually there in 2008 I wasn't a DIS'er and had no clue about anything. We had walked into DHS and saw stormtroopers on top of the turnstiles and was like, "Cool! " Not knowing this wasn't an everyday thing The things I could have seen...the things I could have bought!!!

Great score on TSMM! DH and I are always in competition on this ride. And just FYI, i'm slightly better than him

I think Jellyrolls would be so fun to do one night! What a perfect idea for all you DIS'ers to do.

Can't wait to read the next update!

I'm sorry, there isn't a picture of me in them! It was so hot! I ended up wearing other leggings I had for Star Wars, and then didn't get to these. But they will come in super handy when I go back to SWW next year.

The first time I went to SWW, I had no idea too! I was just like "cool!" and nothing else.

Of course you have a higher score on TSM than him! Bahaha.

Jellyrolls was definitely the best place for us all to hang out.

sounds like such a fun evening! Glad it all worked out and that you had a great time

Next time we get to have "date night" at WDW we are definitely going to have to hit Jelly Rolls up

We had so much fun! You should definitely go there when you have a date night in Disney. You guys would love it!

Fun update!

Love all the Star Wars merchandise and what a great CM you had!

Um, epic DISmeet - Landon and Yeti?!?! Wow! Those guys are clearly two of the DIS TR board's biggest celebs!

We have never made it to Jellyrolls, but sounds like a lot of fun! Great idea for a DIS get-together.

I have to agree - it is pretty awesome the friends you can make in this place.

I know! IT was an amazing DISmeet! Too bad Landon didn't quite understand that he was posing with a celebrity.

It is awesome, isn't it!? I just love this forum.

 

[IheartDDuck]

That Duffy Bear is amazing! They didn't have Darth's Mall the last time I was able to go to SWW (2005, the year of the Darth Mickey plush that wasn't supposed to be made), but it looks like a much better place for the extra merch instead of trying to shove everything into Tatooine Traders like before.

I can't wait to see more of your updates from SWW! After having Ian's birthday party be Star Wars themed this year, I admit that I'm a little bit more obsessed than usual.

I don't think they had Darth's Mall when we were there prior either. However, I'm not entirely sure when they started to introduce the location. But it's awesome to have that much SWW merchandise in one place.

Aww your poor toe! I hope when you go back in 3 weeks, the doctors give you some good news and say you're able to start running again. I'll keep my fingers crossed!

So awesome that you had THREE DISmeets in 1 day! Woo hoo!

You scored some pretty cool things from Darth's Mall. I wonder if that guy did end up buying the leggings and is walking around his house wearing them.

Jellyrolls sounds like a fun time!

Ugh, I know! I'm just being hopeful that it will be shorter than six weeks. I'll take whatever I can get.

It was so awesome that we had three in one day! It was a highlight of the trip.

Hahaha, I wouldn't be surprised at all if he did end up buying those leggings.

I'm glad you were able to meet up with so many people that day. Jellyrolls sounds like so much fun. We're going to have to try to work that in sometime.

I want that cupcake! Now!

Your dad is just hilarious!

It was soooo much fun! I highly recommend it to anyone. I'm surprised that we'd never gone there before.

I always want those cupcakes. I'm not gonna lie.

 

[IheartDDuck]

Why must your torture that child? He totally looks ready to swat that thing away. He is like "what the.......?"

I was not brave enough to wait the 45 minutes to enter Darth's Mall when Cynthia did. But she was pretty much in and out with purchases in about that amount of time so I should have stuck it out.

Oy to the cab. Our cab driver drove us in the wrong direction just to totally jack up our fee. I really wanted to get angry with him for thinking we were stupid enough to fall for that. We had some winners in the cab driver department this trip (more reason to rent a car).

Hey now, hey now. He was just fine. No torture whatsoever. But for real, he was totally like "what......the heck.....is THIS?!"

I just figured if we ended up waiting in line for a while, I would just make quick work of it in the store. My plan worked out. But I would visit again two more times on the trip.

You guys should so go to Jellyrolls! I loved our time there.

Really?! That stinks! What a jerky driver taking advantage of people when they think you don't know what's up. That just kills me.

I'm so sorry about your toe, I hope it's healing fast!

It sounds like you had a wonderful day, I love all your purchases and Jelly Rolls sounds so fun

Awww, thanks. I'm hopeful it will heal fast too.

It was one of my favorite Disney days ever.

I love the pictures of you and your dad with Duffy! Adorable!

Jelly Rolls was so much fun! It's always a must-do for us but even better when shared with is friends! I wish our Nov trips were overlapping. I saw that you arrive the 8th? We leave the 8th Of course I know Caitlin will be excited she gets to see you!

We just had to capitalize on the fact that we had really cute Duffy's.

It was awesome that we all did it together! I totally thought that our trips overlapped more. Waaaah, now I'm sad. We arrive on the 7th technically, so the 8th is a whole day for us. I'm thinking Jellyrolls may be in Caitlin's and my future though.

 

[IheartDDuck]

I have got to find a way to get to Disney during Star Wars Weekends! That looks like so much fun but May/June is my busiest time at work thanks to budget prep (I'm an accountant too, work for County government) and getting time off then is brutal.

Jellyrolls is another thing on my bucket list to try. We almost went after my cousin's wedding in February but we were tired and headed back to the resort instead.

It is so much fun to go during that time!

Wow, accountants everywhere! Awesome! That stinks that May/June is your busiest month. It's definitely worth seeing at some point.

Jellyrolls is a must visit for us now. It was so much fun.

Your CM interaction inside Darth's Mall led me to have this mental image of a guy strutting around his house, totally rocking those leggings. I hope he threw caution to the wind and bought them.

Bahaha. I totally hope that he did buy them. That would be awesome.

It was great bumping into you guys again! I remember Alex and I were walking towards the Backlot Express, and he was saying, "I saw your DIS friend in Darth's Mall. They bought A LOT of stuff...oh, look there they are."

Ha, I remember that too! Soooo funny.

Your mom was not to be messed with in regards to that pin! I don't know what my favorite part of that meet up was. Popadon making Landon laugh with the Duffy bears, his dislike over Yeti, or your mom going:
"Look, I'm a nice person, but let me tell you...don't forget my merchandise."

(Or you going, "Mom. It's right here. In the hat. Jeeeeez.")

See! You were so there. Man, I'm telling you, my Mom is awesome, but seriously, she can be scary if she wants to be. I would have felt so bad for that CM.

There was so much going on in that meet! We were so all over the place.

Oh my gosh, I can't believe my kid punched Yeti away. That picture...fist ready and everything. Nice Landon. Nice.


And, of course, this the shot of him looking at you either pre or post punch:




Where he is basically saying, "Try it again, Stranger. Just try it."

He was so stinking adorable! I just thought the entire interaction was just priceless.

Smart thinking on Popadon's part, some pre-stretching before TSMM. You really do get an arm workout on that thing.

We take it all so seriously. He's gotta work on his arms to compete with me.

Oh wow, Jellyrolls sounds like it was an absolute blast. Look at how many DISers were at that table! That had to be awesome, to just sit and chill with family and friends. I can totally see how that would be a highlight of your trip. It's too bad Mary Ellen and Cynthia won't be there during your next trip; you could all have a repeat night. (At least, I don't think they will be...I might've missed something.)



Mmm, your next update title does not bode well. Then again, it implies you actually got up to jog, and that's more than I ever think about doing on vacation, so you've already impressed me.

It was so much fun! And we all got along so well.

Nope, unfortunately we don't overlap with Mary Ellen and Cynthia on our next trip. We overlap with Cynthia in February though for the Princess Half.

You are correct, it does imply that I got up to jog. Let's just say I didn't make it very far.

Awesome SW merch! Those leggings are too fab. Don't you just love it when you get a fun cast member?

The haul of purchases looks good, too. That Duffy is adorable. I admit, I was not very into Duffy when he was first around but he is growing on me. I just might have to get one of him. The different outfits you can put on him, so cute! It just speaks to my Disney lovin heart.

The night at Jellyrolls looks like a blast. I have never been there but it looks like a ton of fun with some good DIS friends.

I adore it when you have an awesome interaction with a CM! They just make my day.

I wasn't very into Duffy at first either, but he keeps growing on me too. He's really soft too! I just love hugging him.

I highly recommend it for everyone! It's a really fun place.
