Why do we have to stand in all these lines?...a TR by DM w/lots of PIX...Completed!

[WDW Fan]

Poor Alec - I hope he was feeling better by evening! Love the Photopass pics.

 

[winkers]

I laughed so hard over what alec said about RnR! And I must admit I laughed a little when you said he took off his shorts to go bathroom. I have a nephew who is 8 and insists he must be fully nekid before he can poop. My husband had to take him into the restroom once and about died when he saw this pile of clothes under the stall door.

Great photopass pictures!

 

[Disneyolic]

Oh no, I hope Alec is feeling better by the time you go back to MGM. That was really cool about the CM giving you fastpasses

More please

Hmmmm....will Alec feel better when we get back to MGM? Only the next update will tell.... I was pretty sure I could score that FP from the CM. I know they keep them in their pockets for certain times....

Apparently Brookie is allergic to pixie dust.

I certainly hope not.....

Yes, your high-falutin' writin' is confusin' sometimes!

I'll try to dummy it down for you...

Well, this blows my whole "No one will want my Stroller thanks to all the carp I've got in and on it." Glad you got it back!

I'm bummed your guys missed out on the Cars, but oh-so-glad to hear they've actually got waiting lines now - it was a total free-for-all last time we tried!

OMG, if that doesn't exmplify the Family Vacation, I just don't know what!

I totally thought the same thing about the strollers! Especially since we even had it half covered with our own beach towel! This person literally had to pull our towel off and take the stroller! I think not meeting Cars was the biggest bummer of MGM Studios.

The photopass pictures are good but I like yours too DM!

Well, aren't you kind! But I think my photos sucked that time. Wait a minute...maybe it was Rob taking the pics and that's why they suck. Yeah! That's it! That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Reminds me of Robert Munsch's story "Have To Go" The parents would continually ask their child if he had to potty and he would say "no no no" so they would then start a long drive or put him into his snowsuit and then all of the sudden "I have to go pee right now!"

Oh this has happened numerous times! I couldn't even count on my hands and toes....

Too funny! You will get a kick out of showing those to her when she is older.

Oh yes I will. We all laugh every time even now!

 

[Disneyolic]

Oh DM, your updates make me laugh out loud - thank you for taking the time to do them - they really ARE appreciated! I loved the scooter (or whatever it is) photos - Brookie looked absolutely beautiful in hers.

Thank you so much!!! You are so kind.

Great update. I love Star Wars. Oh yeah those are called "speeder Bikes". Loved all the photos. Sorry he wasn't feeling well and hopefully it does not last.

Speeder bikes? Okay, I'll go back and change it. Thanks Scott you Star Wars geek (kidding). We actually do have all the Star Wars movies on DVDs. The kids love them.

I think the scooters are called dorkmobiles...or something like that!

So is it speeder bikes or dorkmobiles?

And she's not spilling the beans.... (unless someone wants to offer cash.....)

I knew I could trust you as no one is going to pay you....

That last photo DOES sum up "family vacation" to a "T"...
"We're all going to have fun, even if it KILLS US!"
Brooke will get quite a kick out of those pictures in years to come!!!!

I know I was thinking, "She'll get better. Really and we will love these photos later! Well, we did love the photos...it just wasn't what we were expecting!

 

[Disneyolic]

Ok. I'm here.

154 PAGES??????

This is going to take a while. I'll be back.

Take your time, relax. Have a drink......

Just follow the links.....should take you all of 5 minutes

But it's the best 5 minutes ever!

Payback is a .......... well you know what I mean DM

Payback is a certain amount discussed between us two that you will give to me in timely increments? Correct?

Okay...I'm being serious now

For all of 2 seconds?

Great update DM

That Brookie is the cutest little darling

Okay...done being serious now

Yup....2 seconds! Thanks blue!

She looks......looks........ well......so happy!

This is what happens after 154 pages???

I think I'm printin you off 1 by 1. I am easily confused and can see myself skipping very important report information.

You really just need to start at the beginning and follow my handy dandy links! I make it so simple!

 

[Disneyolic]

Oh you bad mother you'd never catch me missing a parade

I just can't catch you anyway!

Oh poor little thing hope he felt better soon!

Only time and another update will tell...

Good score DM, good score would we expect anything less from you

great photos I can see them being shown to the boyfriends

Too bad no Dream Team meetings were happening tho..... I can't wait for them boyfriends. Wait a minute. I can wait a very very long time.

OMG She is gonna kill you when she gets older and you whip these pics out to show her friends!

She will love me just as much as every other teenage girl loves her Mom.....

Okay, to keep in theme with peeing pants...This made my day and I laughed so hard I did almost pee! Darn water I drank! "Where Dreams Come True!" Brookie doesn't seem to think so.

Uh-oh....must we break out the Depends?

 

[Disneyolic]

Just tryin' to help out a little.

I didn't know that Zory! Thank you so much!!!! See, you learn something every day on the DIS.

That almost made me pee a little!

Another Depends please!

Hmmmm I wonder if the Photopass people are always there or if it was only for SW weekend.

I'm thinking Star Wars weekend thing but who knows? I love them graphics tho!

Did you know this is considered the smiley for the pee pee dance here on the DIS?

Why no I didn't. Thank you for teaching me yet another new thing!

Oh my! Great pics DM! I'm sure Brooke will laugh when she's older and sees those.

As I'm sure all of us will!

 

[Disneyolic]

That picture of Brookie is a CLASSIC! And what's so funny to me is that the boys have the same smile in each picture...unphased by their sister who does NOT want to have her picture taken.

You noticed that about the boys too? They are such good pic takers at times. Evan should be a male model as he really is a poser. I have about 10 pictures of him at his birthday and he had to model each and every gift. He took great pictures!

When I bought my CD in April the CM told us that they were working on adding the ride pictures to the photopass. TT was the only ride photopass photo and they were testing it out with that one.

So by the time we eventually get back I'm sure all the ride photos will be available on PP....at least I hope!

Wonder if that'll raise the price of the Photopass CD though.

Doesn't Disney raise the price of everything anyway???

--Do you think he was nervous about riding Star Tours?? I've never ridden that myself.

Nope...remember he just rode RnRC and did ToT!

--Love the photopass pics---they get funnier as the breakdown increases!

I know! That is why I love all of them!

Dorkmobiles......ha ha ha! Seriously???

No...that would be your car!

 

[Disneyolic]

I have no idea how I missed that one!! Thanks Looks like fun!!!... ok... back to most recent update!!

Sure. Sorry no food pics. Too busy enjoying the atmosphere!

Another awesome update!

I hope Alec felt better soon.

I love the photopass pics!The ones in front of the hat and at Star Tours.

Don't feel too bad-I have been four times and still haven't seen the MGM parade.

Thanks! I don't think we have ever watched a parade, except Spectromagic - and we have that one on video - ALL OF IT.

I'm one who does think Muppets is a tough one, for the little set. Instead of redoing it...why not just bring them back into the media! I miss the good ole days of watching them... It;s time to play the music, it's time to...at the most sensational, inspirational, mupetational... this is what we call the MUPPET SHOW!

You forgot ...it's time to light the lights...

I used to love singing that!

Okay..that was a dumb dad for taking your stroller. duh! Maybe the heat got to him.

Nope, not feeling sorry for him even with the heat.

Great update... Photo pass pics... pretty funny.... not at the time I'm sure....

Not that funny at the time but fun now!

 

[Disneyolic]

Great update.

I love your dd. She has no problem with expressing how she truly feels.

I can't believe you didn't know that was a speeder. I sentence you to a 15 hour Star Wars Marathon.

I can't even express my feelings on your neglect of the children with missing a parade. Mine don't even know WDW has parades.

Believe that I didn't know that was a speeder bike, you can't? Seem like a Star Wars geekazoid, do I?

You big meanie parent for not letting your kids know about parades....

that last photopass pic had me literally laughing out loud!!! i think what makes it even funnier is that it says, "where dreams come true" at the bottom. soo funny!!!!

That was the perfect saying for the bottom of that picture. I had laughing tears when I added that one to it!

by the way, i'm not sure if someone has already told you this, but my husband just informed me that those star wars "things" are called speeder bikes and they're from "return of the jedi"...........and he's insulted that i had to ask him that.

Thank Ray for me, you can. He's a true Jedi Master, he is!

Ok, you had me singing along... we were so goofy when we were kids, we would add the weirdest words to the "-tational" line... I seem to remember "constipational" was one of my brother's favorites.......

Oh, now that is just gross......

Poor Alec - I hope he was feeling better by evening! Love the Photopass pics.

Only the next update will tell...... and thank you!

I laughed so hard over what alec said about RnR! And I must admit I laughed a little when you said he took off his shorts to go bathroom.

My husband had to take him into the restroom once and about died when he saw this pile of clothes under the stall door.

Great photopass pictures!

That was one of the best quotes from our trip! I totally forgot that he takes off his pants all the way when he goes poop. I so did not expect that at MGM. Thanks!

 

[Miz Diz]

Love the videos! Brookie is sooo cute dancing. Thanks for the update.

 

[SingingMom]

Oh, now that is just gross......

Come now, DM. You know what it's like to have BROTHERS.

No offers of cash yet - but your update better include the deep emotions you felt at the time...

And, I'm with you.... I don't do parades unless absolutely necessary....

 

[dismom9761]

No...that would be your car!

Uh....don't mess with my minivan!

[tinkgurl]

Uh-oh....must we break out the Depends?

Haha...no that's okay!

 

[wirki]

But it's the best 5 minutes ever!

Can't wait to read more

And, I'm with you.... I don't do parades unless absolutely necessary....

Yes, I have a brother who would probably say that was gross too..........unless he thought it up! Ah...but we do watch 1 parade during our vacation, which will it be? Suspense is just killing you, eh?

no update today??Are you ??

No updates on Tuesday..... It's my catch-up day but I didn't do a good job catching up...

Uh....don't mess with my minivan!

(well, I had a really funny one of a pimped up Minivan, but it had a curse word in the address...)

Oh, now I really have to see it. Send me an email!

Haha...no that's okay!

Are you sure? I can get some from my Babushka....

The best 5 minutes ever.......she said to her husband. I'm sorry. That's one was just good to not say! More coming tomorrow.

 

[Disneyolic]

Over on Lessa's TR, she showed me how to take a picture of one of those tiny plastic viewer pics. I did it but showed her that if you zoomed in, then they came out better. So, now I went and dug up a couple of old ones from the year that I met Rob. It was 1994 and me, my brother and my friend, Lisa-Lisa all went to Ocean City, Maryland, for vacation. We got these pics done...

First up, a close-up...I'm on the left.

...and now a full body view...I'm on the right.

If you look not so hard you will notice the lovely "shorts" tan lines on my legs. They looked so stupid. Oh well, to have my body thin like that again....

 

[puggymom]

I looked at Alec. His legs were crossed a little funny. I asked him if he had to go pee. He said, “No, I just like standing this way.” Okay, whatever.

Don't you love how kids don't have to go until...

[/CENTER]

Oh that is just priceless

We would go back to MGM later for EMH and catch all the shows we missed, right? That’s the plan! And only SingingMom knows what really happened....

Are you trying to say you deviated from THE PLAN?

 

[Lifelong_Dreamer]

Great pictures DM! I'm glad that I gave you the idea to get the pictures out of those viewers.
