Well, one gets a little lazy after drinking around the world all day! Haha
This looks really good..We both had the Spikey Pineapple Cruzan Mango Rum blended with DOLEWhip® Pineapple
Very cute! I love your dress.Here is a picture of us, can you guess who we are? Pretty easy Dis bound outfits! I was Minnie and Andi was Mickey.
Andy looks pretty proud of herself.Galactic Hero once again! Andi, of course, not me!
You really got some great Magic Shots. Fabulous pictures.We did a few more pictures and treat trails before it was time to line up for the parade.
It really was a wonderful party! One of the best parties in awhile!Looks like you made the most of the party night! While you didn't manage the monorail crawl, your drink from the Poly sounds delicious.
I love the music. I would be devastated if they change the parade! I hope it isn’t true! That would be tragic!I can hear the parade music in my head as I look at your pictures. That is my favorite parade at Disney World. I have heard a rumor they are thinking about replacing Boo to You for future parties. I will be VERY sad if that comes about.
Haha It became a running joke with Andi and I, why do they not like me, am I to old for candy, what did I do wrong etc…..What did you do to the poor CMs to make them so angry with you?
We really wanted the fried pickles but never got back to try theseWe did the fry flight and the pickle fries. They were all good but the pickle fries were my favorite.
In the pavilion where you sit to wait for the movie.Where did you sit? Was it in the CS area?
The cheese was yummyThis sounds really good. I'm sorry I missed it.
It was so good and went well with our sangria!Someone in our party got this and it disappeared before I got a photo or a taste. It was hot when we were there and it was melting.
Thank you, it was fun getting more pictures of the world showcase areas with Andi!Love all the photos of you and Andy in the different countries. These will go great with the others you have from over the years.
Thank you! I’m really excited! We will have to do a TR together!So excited for your trip with Susan.
Can't wait to read about it too.
Alcohol and me in the afternoon not the best combo!I can just imagine. I would need a really good nap.
This was such a good drink. Like a boozy slush!This looks really good..
Thank you very much!Very cute! I love your dress.
I wanted some different pictures to add to our collection.You really got some great Magic Shots. Fabulous pictures.
I loved the parade. I think it's my favorite parade at MK. This was our first time so everything was new to us. So much to see and do. We didn't get near as much done as you and Andi.
That was very unfortunate. I have lost hotel rooms keys and almost lost credit cards when pulling my phone out of my pocket.Gideon’s does not take a Disney gift card or magic band. I believe this is where I lost all my cash! I went into my little wallet to pay for the treats and I think my folded twenties fell out and I didn’t even notice! I lost around $140.00. It was my own fault for not taking better care of my cash! I didn’t realize I lost the money until the next day, so nothing I could do about it.
I love sitting at an outside table, watching the boats on the lake.Our plan was to go to Jock Lindsey’s hanger bar for a drink and lunch.
I'm glad that both of your children grew to healthy adults. That must have been a really difficult period of time, especially when you knew what some of the complications were.I was an ICU nurse back then and let me tell you, my anxiety was through the roof, because I always feared the worst.
I think that losing the phone would be the worst thing to happen. I have a habit of leaving my string bag or hat behind. They usually keep it at the ride if I realize it soon enough to retrieve it before it goes to the central lost item locationI did lose my phone on the ride. Thank goodness it didn’t leave the ride vehicle and it was fine.
It flew out of my pocket on my skirt.
This looks really good.Classic French Ham and Swiss served with choice of Side. I had the tomato basil soup with it. This was absolutely delicious and I am so glad we came back to the resort. This was only $12.99
Haha It became a running joke with Andi and I, why do they not like me, am I to old for candy, what did I do wrong etc…..
Wait... you can sleep in at Disney? This is allowed? Possible?After our late night, we slept in until around 9am.
Cookies for breakfast... You know you're on vacation when.We wanted to get to Gideon’s Bake House right when it opened.
We got ready and went to the bus stop and a bus pulled right up! Such service, yay
It's like she doesn't even know you! Don't make suggestions that people won't listen to, Andi!She told me, “mom don’t go crazy buying a ton of cookies”
Was wondering how that would work.The staff at Gideon’s are awesome about wrapping the pistachio one separately and putting it in a separate bag.
Oh, no!I believe this is where I lost all my cash! I went into my little wallet to pay for the treats and I think my folded twenties fell out and I didn’t even notice! I lost around $140.00.
Aren't you supposed to put it in your bra? This seems to be the location of choice for many women.Lesson Learned, Don’t fold up a bunch of twenties and put them in a little wallet with your credit cards!
Um... if they're at Disney, they're probably not overly "less fortunate". I'm surprised you didn't go back at some point to ask. I know if I'd found a stack of cash on the floor, I'd have turned it in. Actually I have done that.I sure hope someone less fortunate than myself found the money
No problem. Fixed.I have no idea what I am doing with my arm in the picture, good golly it looks terrible.
Really like it there. Floats my boat... plane... whatever.Our plan was to go to Jock Lindsey’s hanger bar for a drink and lunch.
I've ordered that. Like it.I got the Reggie's Revenge, it was the happy hour drink $13.00
I saw that at another table. It's huge! Don't tell me you both finished that!?!?Air Pirate's Pretzel
Love the Skyliner.We grabbed a cold brew and headed to the Skyliner. It was a quick ride to DHS.
Look at her long hair!!
Sure... when you mess up, just blame lack of sleep. Good call!Our first ride was TSMM and I did not do as well today, I must have been tired out. I think I had around 120,000 and Andi also didn’t do as good but was still best in vehicle with 185,000. I think our late night was catching up to us.
Was wondering where you were going with this...Both my kids were very premature,
Andi was 8 weeks early and Jack was 12 weeks early! It was such a scary experience for Joe and I. We are very grateful both kids did well and didn’t have any permanent problems related to the prematurity! Jack was only 2#14oz at birth and Andi was 4#4oz. So tiny! Jack and Andi are both miracles! Both kids did have asthma and were sick a lot when they were small. They used to wheeze with the asthma and Wheezy from Toy Story reminded me of them.
You poor thing. I can totally see that.I was an ICU nurse back then and let me tell you, my anxiety was through the roof, because I always feared the worst.
Jack has totally outgrown his asthma, he does have seasonal allergies but no more wheezing! Andi still has a little asthma at times but really never wheezes anymore either. My Miracles!
Phew!I did lose my phone on the ride. Thank goodness it didn’t leave the ride vehicle and it was fine.
It flew out of my pocket on my skirt.
Next up was Smuggler’s Run. We got to be pilots, score! I have to say I am getting better at this ride. It is really fun being a pilot.
Andi directed me, lol she tries her hardest to make sure I don’t crash the Falcon!
Who does that! Do you not have a clue that there are other people nearby???Our Skyliner ride back was with another couple. The lady proceeded to take her shoes and socks off and rub her feet. I thought Andi was going to die! She was freaked out by it. I just thought it was gross and was thankful her feet didn’t stink!
That had the chance of being terrible from a quick serve... and it wasn't! I'm both surprised and impressed!Classic French Ham and Swiss served with choice of Side. I had the tomato basil soup with it. This was absolutely delicious and I am so glad we came back to the resort.
In the pavilion where you sit to wait for the movie.
Thank you! I’m really excited! We will have to do a TR together!
The price to me is such a better deal than the Christmas party. The parade and all the candy is definitely worth the cost!
She told me, “mom don’t go crazy buying a ton of cookies”
Gideon’s does not take a Disney gift card or magic band.
I believe this is where I lost all my cash! I went into my little wallet to pay for the treats and I think my folded twenties fell out and I didn’t even notice! I lost around $140.00.
Our plan was to go to Jock Lindsey’s hanger bar for a drink and lunch. It opened at 12:00pm and we were second in line to enter.
It was gorgeous outside and we went out on the deck to sit.
I got the Reggie's Revenge, it was the happy hour drink $13.00
I really liked my drink and the appetizers were very good and happy hour prices, not bad!
Here are a few pictures of Andi at DHS in years past, look at all her pins! RIP GMR!
Jack and Andi both loved Toy Story when they were little and would always have a special bond with Wheezy! Anyways long story to tell you about our connection with Wheezy!
I did lose my phone on the ride. Thank goodness it didn’t leave the ride vehicle and it was fine.
It flew out of my pocket on my skirt.
This QS is a real winner with many delicious entrees!
Awww!!! They really are two miraclesJack has totally outgrown his asthma, he does have seasonal allergies but no more wheezing! Andi still has a little asthma at times but really never wheezes anymore either. My Miracles!
Love it!No problem. Fixed.
I still haven't tried a Gideons cookie but maybe this trip! I have nut allergies as well but not peanut. I can't eat any nuts except for almonds. Don't worry, I always have my Epi pen with me.We decided on one of the coffee cake cookies, (yum), 2 chocolate chip, 1 pistachio toffee (for me to take home, Andi is allergic to all nuts) poor girl! I feel so bad about that but her peanut allergy is life threatening and the nut one is pretty severe as well. I keep my baby away from all things nuts! The staff at Gideon’s are awesome about wrapping the pistachio one separately and putting it in a separate bag.
Oh no!!!!! That is SO stressful!Gideon’s does not take a Disney gift card or magic band. I believe this is where I lost all my cash! I went into my little wallet to pay for the treats and I think my folded twenties fell out and I didn’t even notice! I lost around $140.00. It was my own fault for not taking better care of my cash! I didn’t realize I lost the money until the next day, so nothing I could do about it.
Love Basin!We also checked out the Christmas store and Basin. I did buy some body lotion and soap at Basin. We washed our hand with the delicious smelling soap I love that store.
Now I want to go to Jock Lindsays! Maybe after our lunch at Boathouse.They do have happy hour drinks and appetizers at this hour.
I got the Reggie's Revenge, it was the happy hour drink $13.00
Florida Cane 'Orlando Orange' Vodka, Midori Melon Liqueur, White Cranberry Juice, and fresh Lime Juice
You are still way out performing me!Our first ride was TSMM and I did not do as well today, I must have been tired out. I think I had around 120,000 and Andi also didn’t do as good but was still best in vehicle with 185,000. I think our late night was catching up to us.
Oh my gosh, they were so little! I knew they were both preeemies but I think I forgot just how early they were. Did they have any lung issues at birth? My Jack was a preemie as well but only 5 weeks early and weighed 6#12oz. He had pneumothorax which was very scary and spent about 8 days in NICU.Andi was 8 weeks early and Jack was 12 weeks early! It was such a scary experience for Joe and I. We are very grateful both kids did well and didn’t have any permanent problems related to the prematurity! Jack was only 2#14oz at birth and Andi was 4#4oz. So tiny! Jack and Andi are both miracles! Both kids did have asthma and were sick a lot when they were small. They used to wheeze with the asthma and Wheezy from Toy Story reminded me of them. Joe, bless his heart was very good with the kids when they were sick. I was an ICU nurse back then and let me tell you, my anxiety was through the roof, because I always feared the worst. Thank goodness for Joe! He kept me and the kids calm when they were sick and wheezing!
They totally are miracles!!Jack has totally outgrown his asthma, he does have seasonal allergies but no more wheezing! Andi still has a little asthma at times but really never wheezes anymore either. My Miracles!
One of my favourite things to do!We walked through One Man’s Dream to cool off before our MMRR. I love this spot. We didn’t watch the film this time and Live action Ariel was done meeting for the day.
Blech!!! That is really disgusting.Our Skyliner ride back was with another couple. The lady proceeded to take her shoes and socks off and rub her feet. I thought Andi was going to die! She was freaked out by it. I just thought it was gross and was thankful her feet didn’t stink!
It was! In the all my trips this has never happened! I usually leave my cash in the safe. I will go back to doing that!That was very unfortunate. I have lost hotel rooms keys and almost lost credit cards when pulling my phone out of my pocket.
Same, nothing better sitting out there enjoying your vacation! A great drink and appetizers helps as well!I love sitting at an outside table, watching the boats on the lake.
It was very hard!I'm glad that both of your children grew to healthy adults. That must have been a really difficult period of time, especially when you knew what some of the complications were.
I know it is. Everything is on the phone nowadays. I didn’t realize until we got off it was gone and luckily the person getting in the vehicle saw and let me know!I think that losing the phone would be the worst thing to happen. I have a habit of leaving my string bag or hat behind. They usually keep it at the ride if I realize it soon enough to retrieve it before it goes to the central lost item location
This sandwich and soup was deliciousThis looks really good.
Haha just a little…Wait... you can sleep in at Disney? This is allowed? Possible?
Perfect breakfastCookies for breakfast... You know you're on vacation when.
I should have!Aren't you supposed to put it in your bra? This seems to be the location of choice for many women.
True! I never even thought to check since it was over 24+ hours later! You are a good citizen to do that! I bet most would not!Um... if they're at Disney, they're probably not overly "less fortunate". I'm surprised you didn't go back at some point to ask. I know if I'd found a stack of cash on the floor, I'd have turned it in. Actually I have done that.
I love it! I look way cooler playing the guitar, thank you!No problem. Fixed.
The pretzel was huge, we did a good job eating it up, left just a small amountsaw that at another table. It's huge! Don't tell me you both finished that!?!?
Ugh even at Disney that would be a bad day!Can you imagine losing all your money and your phone on the same day!
I agree! Both Gunner and Engineer are meh compared to pilot!Engineer... sucks.
Gunner (I've not done that yet) might be okay.
But pilot is where it's at.
It was really gross! I was thinking this is disgusting and if her feet would have smelled, I would have said something! YuckWho does that! Do you not have a clue that there are other people nearby???
The food was deliciousThat had the chance of being terrible from a quick serve... and it wasn't! I'm both surprised and impressed!
Perfect breakfast
Nah. I think most people would.True! I never even thought to check since it was over 24+ hours later! You are a good citizen to do that! I bet most would not!
Guitars make everyone look cool. It’s a truism.I love it! I look way cooler playing the guitar, thank you!
The pretzel was huge, we did a good job eating it up, left just a small amount
Ewwwww.It was really gross! I was thinking this is disgusting and if her feet would have smelled, I would have said something! Yuck
I have this “vintage” Disney backpack and I put my little wallet in there. My mistake is not putting my cash in the safe in the room. I never use my cash really other than for tips! It was a dumb mistake!You lost money and lost (and found) your phone in the same day??? Might mean it's time for a new Disney bag. (Maybe I just look for excuses to get a new bag for the parks.) Also - I LOVE the QS at the Riviera. I mostly stay at Pop these days and I always do at least 1 trip on the skyliner over there for a meal. Yumm!!!!!
It is really nice in the China Pavilion and usually very quiet!I've never done that. I'm going to keep that little secret in mind.
The Christmas party is more expensive than the Halloween party and look at the cost of candy nowadays! Plus I am biased because of the Boo to you Parade!That's a really good point.
Haha I always do this. It is very hard to say no!I'm guilty of this. I got too many cookies last April and had to throw some away. I know now to get them closer to the end of the trip or just get 2.
Tell me about it! I was very sadOh noooo! This makes me sick just reading about it. You handled it really well.
It really is a great spot with good drinks and foodThis has become a must do for Dennis now. We went straight from Gideon's to Jock Lindsey's in April.
You can’t beat Happy Hour!I had this drink too. Happy hour is the best.
I think it would be fine with a little one out on the patio! We saw several kids that afternoon.We were really happy with our drinks and appetizers during happy hour. Dennis want to go back in December but we'll have JP so I don't know.
Makes my heart happy looking back at all our trips. We met so many characters back in the day!Loved all the young Andi photos. So many great memories.
I do! Before Jack was born, all we heard from the doctor was he will probably have this and this wrong! It was very traumatic! Thank goodness they were perfect in every way!Wow you really do have 2 miracles. It's great that they both turned out so good.
OMG I should know better ugh!Now your phone! You need deeper pockets.
This sandwich is now a favorite of mine!Sounds great!
Perfect in every wayAwww!!! They really are two miracles
