Wake Up! SURPRISE, We’re going to Disney World…. TODAY!*PTR link! 3/24

been lurking on the post. really enjoying it, we are going to surprise our boys in september for a trip also. love your pictures. what kind of camera are you using bc im looking to invest in a really good camera! Jenn
Welcome out of lurking!:cool1: I bet your boys are gonna be freaking out!:thumbsup2
Thanks:goodvibes I love to take many,many, many:laughing: photos! I use a Sony a100 DSLR. The new Sony DSLR is amazing though! I played with it in the store and I want!

Aww, what a neat surprise for Kadence on Christmas! Gotta love those Disney gifts.

That really is a bummer she wasn't feeling that great but I'm glad she still had fun at the dance party and you got to meet some cool characters.

Disney gifts are the best! We did meet some cool characters. She gets sassy with one!

Aw, that is so sad! Poor Kadence and her tummy. I'm glad she was still able to have fun at the party. That's a really mature attitude! It's cute that she enjoyed the dance party so much.
SHe did have fun, and I'm glad. The next day went better.

I feel for poor Kadence. My son's intestines seem to work the same way. :sick: Ever since he was really small he hasn't liked to ahem "sit down" in a public bathroom so he will have episodes where he needs to go but can't seem to be able to relax to do it until he is super miserable. We've lived through many times like you had so I feel your pain (and my son feel's poor Kadence's). It has gotten much better as he has gotten older....

Thanks:goodvibes She feels furstrated sometimes, and it nothings to hit a store bathroom 3 or 4 times in 10 mins, but I'm just glad it doesn't happen all the time.
My DH thinks if she's not comfortable, or if she has stress that's when it happens
You took great pix don't b so hard on your self

Thanks:goodvibes I just wish they were what I envisioned sometimes!;)
 
So I guess I too will come out of lurking. :rolleyes: We are going this March and plan to surprise our kids too. Loved seeing Kadence's reaction to the surprise. Can't wait to see my kids freak out. :rotfl2: We have never given them a surprise of this magnitude before. When we went to WDW this past March we told them it would probably be 3-4 years before we could go back. They are going to be SHOCKED to say the least. :thumbsup2

Welcome out of lurking as well!:cool1: I love surprises! Funny thing with Kadence, everytime we talk about Disney for any reason, she asks "are you surprising me again!" :lmao: She loved it and I'm sure your kids will too!
 

First off, what is in the big present against the wall. :lmao:

And I want to a grandchild too. She got so spoiled! She got some awesome stuff!!!! And from Santa too. Looks like Janet was really being Santa this year herself. ;)

Poor K with the tummy troubles. We get that too, sometimes it takes a few tries before she goes as well. But most days, Claire is like a goose and goes about 40 times. :rolleyes1 we always say she has the cleanest colon. :rotfl2:
It looks like it was still really hot that night too. I know the feeling, thats how August was.

That was a bike for Sammy! She wasn't in a photo mood, so I have maybe 3 and she forbade me to post them anywhere.:mad: She also got a Tom Tom, The Help dvd, old navy gift card and a fire/waterpoof safe.

Kadence gets spoiled EVERY year from Grandma. We try to go small, because we know she's gonna go nuts! She also gave her a 3 drawer cabinet filled with doll clothes for her 2 18 inch dolls!

I was shopping with Kadence yesterday, we went to the bathroom 3 times in 10 minutes! Before that we'd been at my sisters house for 5 hours and she didn't go the whole time!:sad2:

SOOOOO HOTTT, Kadence actually said, we stink! :rotfl2:
 
Still no “production” if you will so we didn’t want to wander to far from the restrooms. We decided to stake out a spot on the curb for the second Boo to You parade. John went and got us more water and we waited and watched some CM’s entertaining the crowd. We people watched, some costumes were so awesome, we seen monsters, many characters and MNSSHP themed t-shirts, but my favorite…. The 3 good fairies from Sleeping Beauty! It was 3 older women and they were so cute! I didn’t get a photo, but I wish I had. Kadence asked me if they were the real thing!

I WANT A BALLOON!



The Headless Horseman galloped by





The parade soon started:


















 


















They starting handing out suckers, and Kadence got a huge hand full like 3 times!











Views from Kadence:
ME: How did you like the parade?
Kadence: It was awesome! Except I didn’t like the Grave Digger guys, the Dead people and when Frollo came up to my face. That freaked me out!
ME: What was your favorite part?
Kadence: When the Villains were gone!
ME: Did you like the end?
Kadence: YES! I got lots of suckers! But I’m saving them for special days, like Fridays or like that.
(if you could see her face when she said that, so serious!:rotfl2:)
 
Stated reading your DTR today and it is all so cute. I kept saying to my DH "aww look at this..look at that..we are definitely doing this with the kids when we go!!"

This trip we are taking is the 2nd ever for us and the first for our three kids so I find myself "lurking" more than talking..but I just had to comment on how adorable all the pics where and the things she says..and reading these do help newbies like me.
 
We all know how "special" Fridays are...after all you have a whole weekend off of school then! :rotfl2:

You got a great headless horseman shot
And you really make me want to do this party. I keep thinking should I add extra days in Nov...and should they be before the cruise and got Halloweening, or after for Christmas? :confused3
 
OK!!!!!
IM BACK!!!
haha
i went to texas for awhile, then i was working, then the holidays- ive been on hiatus.
good to see your MNSSHP pictures! you had a better start than we did to the night- which someday i will show you when i restart my own report. :laughing:
and whats funny is on the second boo to you parade we were not too far apart from each other!!!!
have a wonderful new years and enjoy the packer game tomorrow. even though its no big whoop since we are so awesome and all!!:woohoo:

Welcome!:wave2: Lurk away, thanks for your kind comments! :goodvibes Well, your in the right place (The DIS) for a newbie. My other TR (Momma, I danced with Flynn Ryder) is 10 days worth of Disney and very full of things to do and see!
Any questions...ask, everyone is friendly and willing to answer anything!

To Kadence special days can take any form!:rotfl2:

Thanks! I was surprised I did get a good shot. I have a bad one too!:lmao:

Honestly, if I was you I wouldn't be able to decide!:confused3 In my head, the next trip would be Nov1st (last MNSSHP) and go though Nov 9th( in time to catch the 1st MVMCP) Hopefull the Osbourne Lights would be up as well!

OK!!!!!

Welcome Back! I was thinking you hadn't gotten over your pnuemonia yet. Glad to see your better!

Oh No, your MNSSHP story scary too! How funny we were so close!

Happy New Year to you too! And the Packers....No Problems, as they are as awesome as they could get!
 
Looks like you guys had a nice Christmas! The pics of Kadence at her Christmas show and in her dress were cute, it was a pretty dress and I love the sparkly tights! :)

I'm sorry Kadence's tummy put a damper on things at the party but at least she had fun with what she did get to see. The Hallowishes pics turned out pretty good, and the pics of the castle lit up were cool, too.

We saw fireworks tonight at the racetrack for New Year's, they were good but they don't compare to WDW fireworks, LOL

That Boo to You Parade looks like so much fun! I would love to be able to go for one of the MNSSHP's, maybe someday...

Happy 2112!!
 
Been DIS free for a while, but I'm all caught up! Too bad Kadence wasn't feeling well at the party, but she seems to have a great attitude about it.

She looked so pretty in her fancy dress! Love the nose-picker in the pic too!

Kadence must have been a VERY good girl this year! It's nice to have grandmas to spoil little girls. Isn't that their job? We have two grandmas and a Kiki. DD gets very spoiled by all 3.

Hope that you and your family had a wonderful holiday, and happy new year!
 
I think osborne lights started on the 10th this year. So around then next year, I assume
 
AHH I love the Boo to You Parade! I've never actually BEEN to MNSSHP but I've SEEN the parade on you tube SO many times hahhaa (yes, I'm lame.) Even if nothing else was happening at the party I'd go just for the parade.

Were yall able to stay for more of the party? I hope things worked out for Kadence. I guess I'll find out soon enough!

Happy New Year!
 
Wow! your parade pics are great! It really makes me want to go in the Fall so we could catch a MNSSHP. Glad Kadence was able to watch the parade without running to the bathroom.
 
You should have seen me at the post office when I found out the package in the back was from Disney! I was :banana::woohoo: :rotfl2: The lady must have thought I was nuts!

I'm so glad they got there in time and that I got to play a small part in your Christmas!

We went to the gift shop the night we were going to dinner at 1900PF. I told my friend Kim what I had to do and she asked which ones. I said wait a minute while I dug out my trip book. I read the not to her, and the girls were off in the back of the gift shop. As I looked up to say "I wonder where these are" Katie was putting them in my hands. She's nothing if not efficient you know!

Great parade pics! You really make me want to go back for Halloween, but then I see in the photos how hot you were and I waver.......... So I'm right back where I was last year with indecision over when to go back.

I was chatting with Kim this morning and realized she has only been to Disney for Halloween or Christmas. MOST of our trips have been Halloween or Christmas. We both wonder if we'd be a little disappointed to not be there for the extra holiday stuff......
