Hi Lesley,
I'm sorry I'm so late to the party but I'm here and enjoying every minute of this trip report. All your plans sound great. We drive from N.Y every year with our 3 boys. So happy you enjoyed Mary Poppins we saw it here on Broadway and was fantastic. You're spring break pics are great and your kids are hilarious. Reading a Tim and Lesley report is almost as much fun as going to Disney.
Well back to my chores
Hi, welcome to the party! Yes, it was great, sure it was awesome on Broadway too. Glad you enjoy the reports, we'll have a LOT to report on this upcoming year, many trips in the works!
WOW! What an amazing night at Mary Poppins! The kids looked SO cute. I love their outfits.
I hope it is coming to us in Louisiana. I don't think it is, however
Are you sure if it is going to stay on Broadway in NYC? We may be going Thanksgiving 2011. I sure hope so, I loved seeing the performance during the WDW Christmas parade last year!
That is SO sweet of your DD to give money to the homeless man. What a kind heart she has!
Glad you enjoyed the picture, hope it comes your way. Lauren is definitely a kind hearted soul.
Thanks to your links I managed to get caught up!
Looks like you've had a great spring and have great plans for your summer trip. You are the peanut butter to our summer trips, right in the middle....
Can't wait to hear about Universal Studios, we've been thinking about making our way over there and seeing Harry Potter.
Glad you found us again. We actually decided against Universal, I posted that back there somewhere : ) We'll wait until next year when the hype wears off a bit.
Yeah, I am all caught up!! Haven't been on the boards since before we left for Disney in February. Crazy with work and Wedding plans. I should be writing reports right now LOL. Cant wait to hear more about your trip. Glad everyone loved Mary Poppins.
Megan
Welcome back to the boards and the report. Exciting about the wedding plans!
Gosh, I'm terribly tardy to your planning party.
I'll try to get caught up!
Welcome Anita!
Sounds like a practically perfect night... especially the compassion Lauren showed on the way out!
Mary Poppins is coming to Indy this fall... we are planning a family night just like yours!! I'll be sure to bring my money for the souvie stand, tho, right!?
(I did buy the blue sparkly shirt in Chicago-the one you can barely see on the left side of your picture-but it makes me angry every time I put it on!)
Thanks for sharing!
It really was practically perfect : ) Yes, bring money for the souvie stand for sure!!!
We've got a small DIS group meeting this Saturday in Atlanta for lunch, with some going on to see Mary Poppins later. It's good to hear your very positive reviews.
Nice family picture. Luke is looking more big boyish than little boyish there. I know he is going to grow into such an outstanding young man.
Enjoy the Dismeet, sounds great! I know, my babies are growing up!!!
Glad you enjoyed Mary Poppins! Looks like you had a great day!
Your family picture was very lovely as well - and I LOVE the one of the kids on the beach. That is just precious!
We did have a great day, glad you are enjoying the pics.
How fun you went to see MP! what a beautiful family pic, and I love the gesture Lauren made to the homeless man. You are raising two wonderful kids!
Wicked is awesome and Lion King is Amazing!!! I hope you get to see them. We don't live near anything, but we try to travel to see the broadway shows now that we know how great they are!
Thanks! Wicked and Lion king ARE AMAZING!!! Hope they both return soon.
Finally joining this PTR! I have been away from DIS for a few months. Now with three months to go to my next trip I am digging back in. Can't wait to hear about your trip!
Welcome!!!!
Aww your daughter is so sweet. You are raising her well. What a good heart
I'm so glad to hear you brought your kids to the theatre too! I love Mary Poppins. I live right outside NYC and I am constantly urging parents to bring their kids to more Broadway shows because it is such an incredible experience for them!! I'm glad you guys had such a great time!!
Thanks! Living outside of NYC would be so tempting, I'd be broke on Broadway tix : )
I love your family picture, you really should frame that one. I love the souvies. I can't wait to see Mary Poppins. It is coming here in Jan. Beauty and the Beast is coming in June and I want to see that one too. Wicked was here last summer and is coming back next spring so I want to see that one too. I love the music from Wicked and I haven't even seen the show.
Glad you enjoyed the pics, Beauty and the Beast would be great too! Oh if you love the music from Wicked, Oh my gosh, the play is just AMAZING!!!
Great family photo.
Glad you had a good time at the show. I think I'll have to get tickets soon
Glad you enjoyed the pics.
Thanks!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the family picture!!! That is such a great shot of all of you....you MUST frame that one!!! It's a keeper!
I am so glad you enjoyed the show, and can't wait to see it ourself on Sunday afternoon!!!
You can go to the Aronoff's website and sometimes view upcoming seasons' schedules...always depending on what they have already locked down to come here. I will cross my fingers too that Lion King comes back soon.....that is one PHENOMENAL show!!!! I want to take Megan to see that one too!
Have you ever seen Les Miserables??? That show is really good too.....the music is so powerful....I balled my eyes out through it!
Thanks, guess I need to buy a frame ; ) I am soooo hoping Lion King comes back, so far it's no on the schedule any time soon.
What a beautiful family picture! The kids are getting so big. I am glad you really liked Mary Poppins, it is one of my favorite movies. Lauren is such a sweet girl for wanting to help the homeless man.
Looking forward to seeing your updates for the trip!
Glad you enjoyed it, yes the kids ARE getting big, wish I could stop time.
Mary Poppins sounds fabulous. Soon as my grandaughter
Chloe gets older I will definitely take her to see it!
We are heading into NYC this weekend for our anniversary
to see my absolute favorite Jersey Boys, also seeing Mama
Mia and the king Tut exhibit. Also got my confirmation
letter to the Regis and Kelly show for monday. Can't wait
for this much needed getaway!!!
Chloe would love it. Jersey Boys is a GREAT show, Tim and I went last year and loved it, enjoy!
Lion King is coming to the Schuster Center in Dayton in summer 2011. The dates are June 14-July 10. We are definitely going to get tickets for that show! Miss Saigon is my absolute favorite Broadway musical...if you ever get the chance, go see it!
GREAT tip!!! Wonder when tickets go on sale?? Perfect Bday present for myself next year!
What a great picture of the four of you, and it sounds like you had a practically perfect time! I am very excited about the show souvenirs they have for sale.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed them. Yes, TONS of great souveniers.
What a gorgeous family picture of you all.
I would say Phantom was my favourite musical. Without sounding strange the music makes me cry especially when all of the orchestra are playing together.
Glad you enjoyed Mary Poppins and what a lovely gesture by Lauren.
Thank you! Phantom is great, I've seen it 4 times, I was obsessed with it for awhile there : )
That is great kids enjoyed the Play so much.
I always wanted to Take Trent to one, but just can't picture him paying attention for that long
He may surprise you, my kids were rivoted.
Wow what a nice family pic of all of you.
That is so sweet that Lauren said it was amazing & also to the homeless man
I wish Mary Poppins was coming around here but I think the closest would be Boston. I do not drive in Boston. I am not sure if it is coming this way but need to find out.
Thanks, wish it would come your way as well, here's hoping!
Sounds like you had a great time at Mary Poppins. Your family picture is so cute.
We did, thank you : )
Mary Poppins is a fun musical, very festive! We saw it in London several years ago, which we thought was appropriate
So glad that you enjoyed it! I think I have seen that Tshirt, btw, on the
Disney Store site...
Yes, very fun and festive. Great tip ; )
Great family picture, it sounds like a fun time was had by all. I look forward to your trip planning update.
Glad you enjoyed it, trip planning updates forthcoming : )

!!! I can't wait to see the looks on their faces. Then on the 15th (my birthday) we will check out of the Nick hotel and check into Buena vista suites for the night (that is where Tim and I spent our honeymoon 12 years ago
). Still trying to decide what I want to do in Orlando on my birthday night, any suggestions? We ate at Charley's Steakhouse 12 years ago and LOVED it, but I don't know if it's still any good. I threw out seeing a BlueMan group show, but that's kinda pricey, maybe we should just drive into the Magic Kingdom, decisions decisions, (definitely open for suggestions on this one).
