Avery is just too cute with her VB! Good job on starting her off young. My 11 yr. old DD wonders why we need VB when there is Walmart bags to be used.
I love the girls' matching outfits. What a fun day at DHS! You sure got a lot done. I love LGM, too. They are just too cute and funny.

Hurray for Cayley warming up to the characters! I love the picture with Handy Manny where she is giving him a shy little wave!

Too funny that Leanne's daughter came over to visit without telling her mom!

I have a very similar LGM shot from Pizza Planet!

When does school start for you?

I know, I was happy that there were no tears. She just saw us and prob thought "hey, I know them" I bet many of us have taken that shot.

Avery starts the 16th, I have classroom set up the 16th and 17th, Cayley starts the 18th and my class of 2 yr olds starts on the 18th.

Great update . I'm glad to hear everyone is still healthy .

I'm glad Cayley wasn't scared of the characters; isn't it strange how they love the characters on TV and not up close???. We've never tried Pizza Planet nor H&V. Dale hate the idea of paying the prices at the buffets for breakfast food .

Thanks, yep we are all doing good! Me too. PP is pretty good. Avery is a HUGE bkfst eater. Cayley and I not so much.

Isn't she We don't go to WalMart They still like to be matchy matchy. LGM are the best. You saved our lives, we are eternally grateful

Oh my! I hope Avery is doing much better.

Love the empty DHS picture! I like that they put in Handy Manny at H&V but from everything I have read, the food seems so hit and miss at all meals. I am glad I switched it because I really think we would have been terribly disappointed with our late lunch there.

She can have it up to SIX months?!?! Oh that poor thing...and poor you! I hope it's smooth sailing for the next 6...

I didn't realize they added Handy Manny to H&V! I'm glad to see him there. If they had updated characters there we would be there in a heartbeat! Though, I honestly don't think Henry would care and would still hug them all.

Sounds like a great day at DHS! Glad to see that Cayley warmed up to the characters! I think I have that exact picture of the LGM from Pizza Planet!

Adorable pictures of the girls w/ all the Hollywood & Vine Characters . We just love there dinner !

 

[brookelizabeth]

Looking at that hat picture again, it just seems even larger than how I imagine it with the two little girls in front of it! I can only imagine how big they think it must be!!!

 

[KatMark]

The girls are just so cute...can't wait to meet them and you in six weeks. Glad to see that Cayley is opening up to the characters. And I love Avery with her face in the Mickey napkin holder.

When I left you, we were returning to SSR for downtime and showers before dinner. We caught a bus to MK and then took the monorail to the Poly. I believe it got stuck since I remeber testing Leanne to ask what time dinner was. The girls were dressed in some cute tropical dresses. I can't believe I did not take a pic.

We arrived at the Poly and found Leanne and famiy. Also the Mc Farlands who were also joining in for the feast. This was our first time at OHana and boy was it yummy. The guys all ordered a infamous Lapu pineapple drink. Here is Joe with his first

They then brought out some of the yummy food. Joe was getting nice and happy after pineapple number 1 so I decided to get him another

This is where he started giving me counting lessons. But first he needed to check with Leanne if 2 really came after 1

He was VERY happy after pineapple number 2.

We finsihed up dinner and then ran into Dana and her guys. We all said hi and then we left to head back to SSR for some swimming. I was texting with Leanne on the bus and she invited us to come check out our new DVC home at Kidani. We grabbed our swim stuff and called a cab to come get us. Much quicker than the bus! We arrived at AKV and called upstairs. No answer. Figured it was prob bad reception so we ventured outside to see who was on the Savanna. We spotted these guys. Pics taken at dusk so they are a little dark...

Avery loved zebras so she was very happy!!

We watched for a little while and then someone called my name. I was so happy to meet Megan (BraveTeacher) She had missed the meet the night before since they were really tired. We chatted a bit and she then directed us to the pool. I called L back-got a hold of her this time and told her to hurry down so she could meet Megan. Jeff and the girls hopped in the pool, Joe,L's brother James and the kids were already there. This is where Joe and Cayley started their relatiionship. Joe kept teasing C and she loved it. At one point she yelled accross the pool, Hey Joe, WELCOME HOME!!! It was so cute. They all had a great time swimming while Leanne and I enjoyed some adult beverages by the pool. It was getting late and we all had early ADR's so we headed to their room to dry off and change.

This is where I fell in with Kidani. Their 1bd was amazing. From the decor to the view to the ammenites. Just breath taking. WOW. We thanked our friends for a fun night and headed down to the lobby. There is something so magical about Kidani at night. they way the lights played on the building. Just so soothing and homey. We cannot wait to stay there in Dec.

We cabbed back to SSR, the girls fell asleep on the way and tumbled into bed. It had been a busy and fun day.

Up next, my BBB surprise!!
