We'd rather be freezing at WDW than warm at home! LAH LAH's DEC '10 TR! *FINAL 1/18*

[LAH LAH]

I'm in! I lurked on your PTR and glad you started your TR!

Sounds like a great start (despite having to return to Pop to change into warmer clothes!)!

Glad to have you here! Wish you would have joined in on the trivia game, then I could have sent you a post card too!

Whats funny is that I was going to join in right before you asked everyone for their address. At that point, I didn't want you to think I joined just to get a postcard!

 

[princess_reject]

I'm joining in too! Sounds like a fun start!

Joining in

Your off to a great start and isn't pop awesome...we loved it there especially the food court and pools.

That's crazy that the weather had to be so cold, but hopefully you were able to make the best of it.

Can't wait for more

 

[Curiouser&curiouser!]

Yippee! It's started and I am already behind on the updates! Eeek! I don't have time to read them right now, so I am just checking in so I can come back later!

Hi, great start to your TR. I was there in December too the 2nd-the 10th and even checked the 10 day forecast, it was supposed to be warmer than it really was. I was so cold I ended up buying a coat there. My sweatshirt just wasn't enough.

I am eager for your next installment, it looks like it's going to be a fun one.

 

[akayek31]

Those cheesecakes were delicious! Wish I could have taken some home in my suitcase. I'm trying not to be jealous of your trip.

Loving your TR so far! Can't wait to read more.

You know, I've been there 2x during the Holidays and I have yet to meet the famous Main Street USA Christmas tree! I'm glad to finally get to see it!

Where did you eat lunch? Noodles Station?

 

[Curiouser&curiouser!]

OK! I am all caught up now!

What a lovely start to your vacation! Nothing is better than first arriving on Disney property. Whether you rush to a park or just relax, it is great knowing that you have a whole vacation ahead of you!

You guys do look a little out of the ordinary once I noticed all the people around you in long pants and sweatshirts! It must have been chilly!

Oh, and free food is the BEST tasting food. (Free, and food that I didn't have to cook always taste so much better to me!)

<- Those are just cause I know you like smilies LAH LAH!


P.S. How are the babies doing? Everyone is healthy, I hope?

It was HUGE! We ate at POP. Elsa didn't like her lunch and Michael got a bunch of sub sauce on his sweatshirt. I liked mine!

Baby C is doing great! E is struggling with a throat infection and an upper respiratory infection. He hasn't eaten anything other than a cup of applesauce and half a soy yogurt since Saturday evening Poor buggy.

Oh no! Sick babies are no fun! I hope E feels better soon!

 

[jenjolt]

WOW what a gorgeous tree!!!

Yes it was quite cold while you were there, I don't blame you one bit for heading back and putting on warmer clothes!!!

Your lunch looks so yummy!!! HMMMMMM....

Can't wait for another update!

 

[LAH LAH]

WE ARE WARM!​

It's funny how much more relaxed and ready you are to tackle things when your belly is full and you are dressed right. We were and were and ready to jump back in!

Our plan was to head straight back to Fantasyland but we had to stop on Main Street and see the Dapper Dan's in all their festive garb! They were phenominal, as always, and we can never resist the chance to hear them sing all their amazing harmonies!

Elsa and I didn't know who was more entertaining to watch, the DD's or the kid in the glasses watching and dancing to them:

We cruised on over to Fantasyland and rode It's a Small World, Peter Pan, Mickey's Philharmagic, and Snow White:


Waiting for IaSW

Goofy faces...just because we can!

Where we were stuck for about 15 minutes. At least it was the pretty room!

3-D glasses, always a good photo op!

Waiting for Michael to use the bathroom:

Our next stop was something that was on my Disney Bucket List. I really wanted to see the updated Hall of Presidents and the kids reluctantly went in with me. I thought the movie was well done and am always blown away when they introduce the presidents...but something was just off with President Obama. I don't know what bothered me about it but he seemed the least life-like and the least like himself. Either way it was a success as both kids really liked it! Check one off of the DBL!

The next ride was heavily discussed throughout the morning and I think the only way we could even consider it was the fact that we were dressed warmly! We knew it was only going to get colder during the week and we did not want to miss our only opportunity to ride Splash Mountain. So ride we did! The jets were off, but we still got pretty wet and y'all know how stinky those handle bars are. P.U. They gotta do something about those stinky handle bars!

It was time to get some grub and Elsa is in with the turkey legs so we stayed in Frontierland and got some dinner.

Chilled Chicken Wrap from Peco Bill's:

An amazing thing happened this year and it has opened us up to a whole new set of possibilities. The kids are finally old enough to wait together while I run to get something. It is very liberating!


Next Up: MSEP...HERE WE COME!

 

[jenjolt]

Oh how I love the Dapper Dans!! They look so handsome in their festive garb! Glad you were able to stop and listen and what a great picture!!!

Love the picture of you and the kids!! You guys are too cute!! The turkey leg picture is too funny, glad they enjoyed it!!!

NO SPLASH MOUNTAIN FOR ME, unless it is 90 outside, so you guys are braver than me!!!

 

[LAH LAH]

Oh no! Sick babies are no fun! I hope E feels better soon!

Thank you He started asking at 5:30 to go to sleep I gave in at 6 and let him go to sleep. He was so happy and fell right to sleep. Poor buggy.

WOW what a gorgeous tree!!!

Your lunch looks so yummy!!! HMMMMMM....

Can't wait for another update!

I can't find my picture of the whole thing. It was insanely tall!

 

[TeaForTulips]

subbing!

I was surprised with the weather last month too and even ended up buying some mickey socks and crocs in park one day because my toes were freezing! I must admit I did not mind the unplanned purchase...

Can't wait to read more!

 

[Lady Lallie]

I love the Dapper Dans festive attire! Very holiday-ish.

Your pictures are so cute! You are a cute family.

I love the water on your Mickey ears after your Splash ride.
