Will we ever get back?? Travis is Veteran of the Day!!!!

Your plans look wonderful! Love CP and Le Cellier. We're going back to Le Cellier during our trip. I hope the cake you ordered is as yummy as it sounds. Can't wait to see your PTR!!! Have a wonderful trip!!! :goodvibes
 
Rachel called and Connor isn't doing too well, poor baby. He is miserable with his cold, but so excited to be at wdw. They were headed to the boat dock to go to dtd and the lego store. Connor has recently discovered how much fun legos can be so I think he will LOVE the lego store!!

Rachel was hoping to eat at wolfgang puck express, I hope she has a chance!! She also heard from Travis and he was waiting for his plane in Georgia!! Woo Hoo!!!:goodvibes:cool1: He should be arriving at OKW around 2 p.m.!!

In the meantime I am trying to get the house cleaned up. That way when we get home it will be to a clean house!

Rachel just called me. She said they are not running the boats back to OKW due to the high winds.:scared1: I think she is excited that it is supposed to be getting MUCH warmer in florida within a few days!! This means a trip on the bus, waking up the baby and lifting bob into the bus. I wish I were there to help her, but she is resourceful thank goodness!!

Hope you are all having a great day!! I will be working four nights before I leave. I hope you all have plans for a nice Easter!!:goodvibes

Thank you so very much!!!:goodvibes When they got up this morning they had planned on going to the Magic Kingdom (this was supposed to be the best day to go this week according to tour guide Mike), but they just couldn't get the sweetie to get moving! They went to Epcot as they were not open yet. They let everyone in 1 hour early to ride soarin!!:cool1: Well having gone to disneyland so many times we have ridden that gobs of time and Connor is not big enough to ride it, so they bypassed that and started riding other things and got a lot done actually!!:goodvibes They ended up in the first Crush talk of the day even!!:thumbsup2
So, now Connor is starting to feel somewhat better! But.....wait for it.....Grandma couldn't sleep yesterday, I worked all night, tried to sleep today, so I can work tonight and I am sicker than a dog.:scared1::sick: Lol, glad I got it now and not next week!
 
Yumm, being sick is my ONLY excuse for this.;) I know that's not a very good one, but I made my Harry & David corn chowder today!! It was a soup packet that is so NOT good for you, but it is heavenly!!:cloud9:If you haven't had the pleasure of H & D they are famous for their fruit of the month gift club and Moose Munch, which is pure heaven on earth if you want carmel corn that is over the top good!!
Hope you are all having a good planning day!!
 
Oooohhhh I almost forgot!! One of Rachels birthday gifts arrived and I'm picking it up later!! It is a tinker bell watch! (The strap is lime green;))

I also have a friend at work that makes crocheted blankets to sell and she is making one for Rachel that will be ready by the time I leave!!

They just called. They are back at OKW and the highlight of the day for Travis was riding mission space!! He was stoked as he got to be commander or captain or leader of their crew and push all the buttons...lol.:lmao:

They wanted to know about the wolfgang puck express menu, which ended up sounding good to Travis, so they will be heading that way soon!!

Man I am starting to get so excited, in spite of the creeping crud.:rotfl:
 
How did I miss all of this excitement??? So glad that Travis has been reunited with his family and that they are having a good time. I hope that Conner is able to start feeling better. It's no fun being sick when you're on vacation.
Are you guys there for two weeks? How awesome would that be!!!
Your plans look great though! :thumbsup2

Thank you so much!!! Rachel and the boys are there for a bit over two weeks. I fly out next Tuesday to join them, then we leave the 21st. I get one week, they get two!! Yesterday they did really well considering that two parks got closed to any more admissions!:scared1: Their longest wait was only 15 min., when Travis waited for Mission Space. That was in the fast pass line by the way! Rachel said fast passes were gone by 11:30 for all of the major rides and this was one of the quieter parks yesterday!:eek:

I'm not sure where they are going today but I think it is Hollywood studios. There only must do objectives are toy story mania and playhouse disney. Since they were going to get there before rope drop that should be fairly easily accomplishable. lol I don't think that is a word, but I like it anyway!!

Rachels watch is so cute!! It is from avon and was on sale!!:woohoo: It has a small picture of tinker bell and the words "green is the new black"! It has a lime green band, so it really "stands out". I think she will like it, at the least I know she will be happy I thought of her.:goodvibes She is a good daughter!!:love:
 
I almost forgot! Last night I was getting report and my cell phone rang. I NEVER get calls at work, so as soon as I could I checked who it was. I saw that it was Rachel, so I freaked a bit as she knows I was at work already. I called and Travis answered the phone. I asked if everything was ok and what Rachel wanted. He said, "Rachel didn't call, Connor did. He wants to talk to you really bad".:goodvibes:love::hug::woohoo:

He gets on the phone and we have the following conversation:

Connor: Hi gramma, I'm sick!:sick:

Me: I know sweetie!! Gramma has the creeping crud too!

Connor: Gramma I want to come home right now so you can take care of me!!!

Me: Awwww poor thing, but you know what?

Connor: No what?

Me: Grammas at work right now, so if you came home right now you would be all alone.

Connor: But Gramma (He has recently started saying but Mommy , but Gramma in a very serious accentuated way. Very cute as if by saying those words it can make anything happen!) If I came home you wouldn't be alone!:teacher: (sweet isn't it?)

Me: Well Connor guess what? On tuesday gramma is coming to florida too!! We will get to go see Mickey together and we can ride on rides too!!

Connor: I'm going to watch my movie now, I'm done talking!:confused3

lol that cracked me up!!

I asked 2 of our docs last night and they said a horrible virus is going around, cough, very sore throat, horribly sore ears, heavy chest....ahhh yep...except I don't have the cough...lol

So enough whining, I'll shut up now;)
 
Hope you start feeling better soon. :sick: Being sick is no fun. Hopefully you will be feeling better before you leave out on Tuesday. Connor sounds like a real cutie. This week is spring break for most schools around here so maybe next week's crowds will be a bit lighter. Got my fingers crossed for ya!!

You are such a sweetie!! Thank you so much!! I was talking to Travis yesterday and he said "I just can't believe how many people are here."
I told him that I knew what they were facing from disneylands 50th birthday....what a zoo!!!
Rachel and Travis were actually there too. Rachel was almost 8 months pregnant with Connor, but she still managed to spend a bit of time in the parks. She often tells Connor that it was his first trip to disney. lol.
 
Subbin' until I can catch up with your report. I have said it sooooo many times.....trip reports and pictures are what get me through to our next wDW vacation!
 
Sorry you are sick. Love me some Harry and David-my mom always gets me the pears YUM. Connor is a cutie! How old is he again?? Get better fast!!

Thanks so much for joining in!! I know exactly what you mean about trip reports!! I love dining reviews also!!

lol I am very predjudiced, but I agree that he is cute;). He is 3 1/2. I have never had any of the fresh fruit from H&D but on our last trip to the outlets I bought a bag of pear chips. They were really good and the lady working there told me that at the end of pear season they make the chips from the leftover pears. I really enjoyed them.
 
Well in our ever morphing disney trip we had to make another change today!:scared1: Travis is on leave until the 23rd. We didn't think we would be able to change our flights, but we did get them changed!!

We are now staying at Coronado Springs on the 21st and 22nd!!:goodvibes We will bw doing the QS dining plan there. I am hoping beyond hope that those last two days will be a lot less crowded. One can hope right??:rotfl:

I swear, if everything finally works out for this entire trip I will breathe a HUGE sigh of relief!! Rachel and Travis skipped parks today so Connor could rest and apparantly he is feeling MUCH better this evening!!!:goodvibes

I told Rachel about the new picnic packs at Animal kingdom (here are the details http://www.wdwmagic.com/Dining/Animal-Kingdom-Picnic-in-the-Park) and I think we are going to try this next week. I am curious whether or not they will allow children to order from this as there are no children menu options and you can use counter service credits to order this. It says adult CS credits, but everywhere else you can order for children also if there is no childs menu. I would like to be able to use Connors credit to get him extra mac & cheese or something. We definately would have enough of everything else.

Rachel is thinking that since we are staying longer and due to Travis feeling pressured , we should just do QS and Hoop De Doo and skip the rest of the table service meals. She said they will talk it over tonight and let me know their thoughts tomorrow. :confused3:confused::eek: And I was just really getting into the idea of basic dining....lol
 
Two weeks at Disney sounds fantastic!!!
It sounds like it was a good idea that Rachel and Travis just stayed in the resort today. Connor will feel so much better tomorrow. PLUS they get to get out of the crowds for a while. I can't imagine being there when they have to turn people away because they are full to capacity! :eek:
I'm happy that you got two extra days! Sure do hope that you start feeling better before you leave.
 
Woo Hoo, just got off the phone with Jim at SSR. He called me after I left a message at Artists Pallette concerning my cake order. Disney hadn't charged my card yet so I was worried that my order had been lost in the shuffle. Well Jim said they wouldn't charge my card until the cake was picked up from the Grand Floridian bakery.

He also said the cakes from the bakery had been very pretty lately!!:goodvibes I hope that turns out to be the case for this cake also!! Rachel said she will take pictures tomorrow and put them on photobucket on Saturday so I can post some here.;)

Jim said they will give her plate, napkins, forks and a knife so she will have plenty of supplies!!:) I am more excited than Rachel is...lol.

My boss called me and asked me to work tomorrow night as well as my regular two, so I will be really tired Tuesday at 3:00 a.m. lol. That's probably a good thing as it will keep me super busy!!
