Loved the video update DM! Your kids are really cute and how adorable was Brooke singing the pirates song.

 

[Disneydad99]

I agree!

During the parade you can hear me sing, "Winnie the Pooh" very briefly!


I still clap too! I totally get all geeky with the characters.

Oh, I could hear you!!!
That's one of my favorite songs - Speaking of "geeky", I get the strangest looks because I know ALL the words... "Deep in the hundred acre woods, where Christopher Robin plays..."

Hi! Just wanted to say I'm done lurking and love your TR so far! Your kiddos are adorable.

Oh, and WAY WAY back in your TR where that rude woman put her kid in front of yours at Imagination, well, I just have to say that you handled it beautifully. At least once (oh, ok, more like 5 times) during our yearly trip to WDW there is someone who makes me almost lose my Mickey-cool.
I usually tell my kids that they are very unhappy people and they like to have other unhappy people to hang out with.

Keep up the good TR'ing. And thanks to MeeskaMouska and Goofylvr for sending me over here way way back in their TR.....

No I havent gone into lurkdom its just that I fell behind this week. Sorry DM!
I love love loved the pics of the kids at Crystal Palace! What adorable pictures! It looks like you really had a nice time there. For some reason we didnt do CP this trip so I am sorry I missed it. Oh well, theres always a next time
That video is so neat... I love all of the clips! The lightening is neat, and you can almost see the smoke or is that humidity around the castle??? We all sing the Yo Ho song too...so funny! Brooke is adorable.

Great updates DM! Can't wait for more!

Cute video! I love the background voices at CP--some crazy eyes by your boy

Thank you. I think the background voices add that special touch! And the crazy eyes? That is simply Alec....

the video was so cute, DM

Thanks so much!

Sweet video DM, Brookie sounds adorable and I must say you don't sound as though you have a huge accent at all!!!

Thank you Jo. And I totally agree with you that I don't sound like I have a huge accent at all. Wait a minute...did you mean that I have a small accent?

Loved the pics and the video from CP. We will be going there our first time in November!! I can't wait to find out what is up with the castle. Please don't make us wait too long!!!

I'm glad you liked my photos and video from CP, especially since this will be your first time going. It is just such a cute place to dine, and good food too!

Loved the video update DM! Your kids are really cute and how adorable was Brooke singing the pirates song.

Thank you. I never get tired of hearing that my kids are cute.

And you thought my singing was simply lovely, eh? But I don't know all the words so you win in the geeky category....

Thanks for coming out of lurkdom! I really appreciate it. I guess that post about Mrs. Rude was far back but it's nice that you commented on it and made me look good! So you saw me in Meeskamouska & Goofylvr's TR? It couldn't be due to such a flashy link in my siggie, could it?

Great updates DM! Can't wait for more!

I don't think you went into lurkdom. You are posting just on time! You definitely have to go to CP next time you visit...and when will that be Mrs. TGM subscriber.....

Love the video!!! Brooke's singing is too cute!

Thank you! That singing is cute but you should hear her do her rendition of Avril Levigne's "Girlfriend". Now, that's funny!

Hi DM,

Heath & Javens Mom, loving the Utube videos! RT is just too hot!

Thanks! When is your next trip to Disney? Brookie asks every day if we can go back now! I wish I could tell her yes!!!

Here you go...

 

[Disneyolic]

Okay, within the next 10 minutes or so I'll be posting my update. I think some of you may be disappointed with my cliffhanger. I surely hope not but hold on.....

Sunday, June 24....Magic Kingdom
Leaving the Magic Kingdom...


We left Crystal Palace and Evan reminded us that we needed to go back to Pirates so he could buy himself a gun with his spending money. So, back we went and he picked one out. He loved that gun and still does. He also bought a Pirates medallion that cost $20. I nearly flipped at that price but it was his money and he knew that once it was gone, it was gone. Alec also wanted the medallion so he bought that too with his money.

So we are strolling back to leave the Magic Kingdom and we look at the castle and what did we see? Was it the Dream Team? Nope, we just noticed that that the smoke had finally cleared away. That meant we could get more PhotoPass pictures. Wasn’t that the best cliffhanger ever? Sorry to disappoint you. I had to do that just because so many of you (not naming any names or anything) are doing that so I had to do this one too. Just because!!!

So, I tackled a CM to take a couple of pictures for our Photopass. Well, almost. At least I got me some more pics.

After he took the photos I asked the CM if he could take the famous Tinkerbell photo with Brooke. He said he was sorry but he was not allowed to do that anymore. I was disappointed and it must have showed in my face because the CM looked at Brooke and pulled this out of his pocket for her...

I guess that kinda made up for not taking the Tinkerbell picture...

Off we go to the bus back to POR. Evan was very proud of his new gun and when I went to take a picture of him, he gave me this pose. I totally wasn’t expecting it but I loved it!

And then he turned on me!!! Oh no!!

I was pretty tired but all the kids wanted to go to Ol’ Man Island (POR’s main pool). So Rob decided to take all 3 of them. I thought that was most excellent of him. I took some time to jot some notes down in my PassPorter journal pages. I also took a couple of pictures of the view from our room.

First, looking straight out looking toward building 14...

...and looking slightly to the right.

Then the clan came back. I changed Brookie and she fell fast asleep.

Next installment...June 24...Port Orleans Riverside...Dinner and Some Shopping

 

[cherbear]

Do you read everybody's posts? I guess it would be hard to keep up then.... I'll try so hard to make it better just for you...

Actually what I meant was that I'm trying to catch up to his post count. LOL

Hey, great update! But not long enough...I need more. hehehe

I don't understand why the CM couldn't do the tinkerbell picture? Think he was lying to you? I'd hope not, but still that just seems weird!

 

[kaysmommie]

I agree your update is not long enough. I have heared they still do the Tink photo . I guess I'll find out in 63 days . We check in on October 3rd. I know all about kids asking when are we going back because I have been hearing it since last September. Nice picture of RT, I think he looks cuter with his hair a bit longer . I had to show my DH your photo shop pic where you replaced Marisol with you , very funny.

Fun update. your family picture with the castle is precious
