This Is A Poncho-Free Zone!--May 22-29, 2010 PTR (New PTR!!!! 5/31)

[Charleston Princess]

Those Mickey and Minnie mugs are precious! I bet using them really brightens your day when you use them!

Thanks for all the links! I hope I don't forget about the new Samantha Brown show tonight!

 

[Happy Elf]

Thanks for the info! The travel website looks like it will be fun!

I'm glad they added the princesses to dinner. I felt very rushed though breakfast and they didn't pay any attention to Owen at all (not that he cared, but I did). Hoping it will be better. If you have dinner there I would love to hear about it.

The tea sounds amazing, the girls will have a blast!

Ooh, love those mugs! And Ally picked out some great valentines. Love it!

I miss all those Great Hotels shows...good thing we DVR'd all of them and made a DVD so we can watch them whenever we want (I usually pull 'em out right before a trip...). Can't wait for the new Samantha Brown show!

Good morning Becky! Great update!

First..I love the mugs..way cute! I love it when I get "forgotten" presents...makes it feel like Christmas all over again.

Ally did a great job on her Minnie Mouse! That's definitely a keeper for the scrapbook!

LOVE, love, love Samantha Brown! I already have my DVR set!

Here is the pic of the bag Jeff got me for my birthday from the VB website. I LOVE IT! He also got me the matching zip ID wallet.

The girls did a great job picking out Valentines! Love the Up ones...I haven't seen those before.

The Mrs. Potts tea sounds like fun! You find the best events!

[JenAusty]

Wow! That is a lot of great information! And thanks for sharing the Samantha Brown info! I absolutely loveeee her! And I feel like she never on the travel channel anymore. She was always my favorite. I'm also excited because I had a snow day for school and work today and now I'll get to watch it!

The tea party sounds fun! Can't wait to hear about it!

Love the mugs---they are too cute!

Your girls will have so much fun at the tea party. You'll have to take lots of pictures (like I need to tell you that!-- *He he*)

I'm so sad that I don't have the travel channel on my cable, so no Samantha Brown/Disney for me...... . BUT, you will definitely need to watch the one with the Wilderness Lodge, to get you psyched for your Christmas trip!

Thanks Michelle!!! Girl--you know I will be taking a TON of pics at the tea party!! Hee hee!!

No Travel Channel?!?! How can that be?! I'm watching the Wilderness Lodge show RIGHT NOW!!!

 

[ladybugmom]

Ok, for those of you NOT on Facebook I just have to share with you my status update!!!

Claire is insisting that Cinderella castle is HER castle!! "My castle, Mommy! I want to go there! That's MY castle!" She is going to be sooo much fun to take to WDW in May!! I can't wait!

We were watching the Samantha Brown Great Hotels special on the Wilderness Lodge and as soon as she saw Cinderella castle she started pointing insisting that the castle was HER castle!!! She did the same thing Monday night when we were watching Cake Boss at WDW!!

 

[SoonerGirl]

Thanks for all the great links Becky! I'm so excited because our week in May is listed as one of the lowest crowd weeks of the year - I hope they're right

That tea that you are taking the girls to sounds so cute! You guys are going to have so much fun.

I saw that episode of Cake Boss too, wasn't 'Claire's' castle cake amazing?! That guy has so much talent.

 

[Charleston Princess]

Claire cracks me up! I can't wait to see some of the things she says in May!

You're welcome, Michelle!! Yay for a low week!! I'm kind of nervous b/c our May week says Moderate Plus--not really sure what that means?! Last year we went the week before Memorial Day weekend (it was a week earlier though) and it was very nice!! Of course it was raining the entire time so maybe that had somethign to do with the crowds. Oh well! We'll still have a nice time!!

Yes, that Cinderella castle cake was AMAZING!! I got all teary-eyed watching it!!

Claire cracks me up! I can't wait to see some of the things she says in May!

I know!! She is so much more aware of everything now. Plus she knows all of the character's names now--she can even sing you the song that goes with each princess!! Last year she just slept a lot!! I cannot wait!!!

 

[mommytothreeboys]

You go Claire!! What a little princess!

 

[klacey1]

What a fun update, Becky! Love the Disney valentines-- I miss those days. I'll never forget the Cinderella ones I gave out one year
Thanks for the links, too. I love the vacation-planning website-- there are so many great resources out there for Disney lovers!

Hi Becky!

Haven't caught your updates in a while....things here have been busy! Kids have been sick, we've gotten tons of snow and we've had a few birthdays too! Such is life!

We have a snow day today too! I am actually hoping for a delayed opening in the am, b/c I know the roads will be icy and I'd rather not have to rush to drive them to school.

Anyway, do you use tourguide mike to plan your park days? I always have in the past, and thought it was worth it. But, I want to plan out my adr's and usually he doesn't have the park crowd days until a month or two out. How do you pick your park days if you dont' mind my asking? We always go at the end of august and its usually free dining, so ADR's are almost impossible to get or switch if you don't book right away.

Thanks for your help!
