Welcome Home-Our 1st DVC Trip Link to TR pg 53

I need to find the group pic that I took of our Dis Meet and post it here. I hated that Mama and Hunter didn't make it over but it was just so darned hot and I hated for Mama to walk that far. It was so nice meeting everybody face to face. I do have a question....do you remember the name of the Diser who came and didn't stay very long? She was a little timid but very nice.

I would appreciate the pic if you can do it. I think her name was Whitney-I remember she had a cool bag we all liked.

I'll find the picture and post it here. I just have to remember which Photobucket account I had it in. Maybe I can go back to our May DisMeet thread and see if I can find Whitney.

Sun May 30th

Our last day....We went over to Artist's Palette for breakfast. They girls had enjoyed coloring there all week.

We then decided to make a family mural of all the great things we experienced during our trip

I took a cute pic of Jeff and Cayley

After breakfast we checked out the rocking chairs

Said goodbye to the pool

Took some "Welcome Home" pics

I took some pics of Jeff being silly

Played a few games in the community room

This one is "pick up sister'

We then made our way to the front for the un Magical Express

We were off to the airport for our flight and made it home with no problem. Our 2nd trip to WDW was over

Up next, closing thoughts

Lovely last walk around Saratoga Springs, but I am so sad your trip is over! Thank goodness you have the September one to entertain us with!

I got here in time to see the trip end!!! OH...I'm so sad it has come to a close!! Loved how you spent your money just enjoying SSR!! I love that pool LOL!!!!!

 

[my2disneyboys]

Great ending of the trip! I love all the pictures. Looks like you had a very relaxing and fun last day!!!

 

[KatMark]

Mary, I love the pics of the parade and the girls (Mark especially liked the one of Cayley being depressed). And your last day pics are awesome.

I was 3 updates behind! Love those pictures with Minnie and her coloring! It's so magical when the characters truly come down to the level of the kids. This past trip Goofy played with Henry's toy bus at Cape May, it was fantastic!

Sorry to hear about the parade and Wishes being canceled! This is the cutest face ever!!!! I love the little mad faces kids make!

Great shot!!! I might have to steal this idea.... I did one with my own feet at SSR, but have forgotten to do something similar since - and using the kids feet is just even better. It will be fun to take one every trip and watch them grow!

I forgot about the coloring they had at SSR in AP. Henry wasn't interested in that sort of thing (too young) when we were there, but I always loved walking in and seeing the art displayed. It was just so sweet! I imagine we'll visit SSR again at some point and it will be fun to do various pictures with Henry, I really look forward to that!

Wonderful trip, I'm looking forward to your next one!!!

I am so sorry. That was the day we had to wait almost an hour and fifteen minutes for a bus. Got to DHS at nearly 1130a-tried to get FP for TSM. Had a quick lunch, saw VOTLM,PHD and went to Epcot. I did try to call but had no reception. I wish you would have called me. It was a fun bkfst. The switch was a hassle but worth it. Is that 1000 Palms/Indio area? Jeff's GMa lives in Palm Desert.

That's ok Girl , sorry to here you had such a problem with the buses and and your cell phone reception I wish now that I would have called too !!

We will be living in 29 Palms , about 30 minutes from Yucca Valley & 2 hours from Palm Springs , don't know if that helps or not ??

Great updates

Nice pictures of the morning parade !

Cute picture of the girls with the CM , we had quite a few CM's wanting to play with our kids this trip, it was soo sweet !

Sorry you missed the evening parade & fireworks , the poor girls there disappointed little faces say it all

Love all the last day pictures from the resort , seems like you really enjoyed your time there !

 

[that's nice]

Mary-
Sorry I've been MIA for a while... just trying to catch up and I see you are done!

I loved all your pictures but the shots of the girls trying the Beverly are priceless!!!!!!! You meanie! Hopefully they will forget that experience and you can have them try them again!

Isn't it funny how it is the magical express on the way to the hotel and the Un-magical express on the way to the airport?

The pink Mickey head shirts are really cute! Did you make those yourself?


Thanks for sharing your trip with us! I hoe you guys don't have so much rain next time.

I am sorry we didn't meet up. I do know kinda where 29 Palms is. I liked using my zoom at the parades. It is so nice when the CM's interact with the kids. They were sad. It was a nice place.

Hiya Tim

I need to catch up on ur PTR as well. Thanks, I got more Beverly pics this year!! Thats right it can change whether you and coming or going. My SIL made those for the girls. We had 5 min of rain in Sep

 

[MaryAz]

We had many fun times on this trip. It was nice to be able to take our time and explore things more in detail. I really enjoyed meeting up with all my friends from the DIS! We also liked staying DVC. I think I am spoiled now. Our GG dinner and safari were very fun as well as the dinner at O'Hana, 1,2 The rain was much less then the previous year so that was much appreciated.
Thanks for following along. I plan to start my Sep TR soon as well as a PTR for my Dec trip-I need help from those who have went during the Christmas season!

 

[eandesmom]

I'm sad it's over! Bummer about the rain but some darn cute pics!

All the girls outfits were so adorable. I hope you had a fab September trip and that you really enjoyed CSR and YEAH for Christmas at the world.
