Love the updates! Joe will definitely have to try a Schofferhofer when you guys go next! Best drink in the World Showcase, in my opinion.
I am seriously in awe of the Snow White/7 Dwarfs outfits and the Tiana dresses.. ok and everything else you make.. you are awesome!
The pictures from the Tiana meet are adorable. We met her last time, she is so fun!
*spoiler alert* Joe did not get to try a Schofferhofer and he was super bummed about it. But it definitely gives us reason to get back to Epcot sooner rather than later, right?!
Aww, thanks! I wish that I could take credit for making the girls' dresses, but I can't. I wish that I was that talented with a sewing machine. I'll just take credit for planning them hehe. We loved meeting Tiana too! She sent so much time with the kids. She said that we were her first family of "Tianas" that she has ever met.
Wow, that just seems... wrong.
Tell me about it! 4 days was way too long not to have stepped foot in MK! But the second half of our trip we were within walking distance (whoo hoo!) so it only made sense to plan all of our MK days for then.
I have to hand it to you. That is a gutsy call to change resorts on the same day as a Magic Kingdom morning. Impressive.
For a family who ALWAYS runs late, it was very impressive! And to make it in time for the Welcome Show..... SO worth the early morning alarm clock!!!
Ah the Welcome Show. I will argue until I'm dead (and let's be real, long after that as well) that there is no better way to start any day.
I like your thinking Rachel. Caffeine = priority. I do the exact same thing.
YAY Mine Train. It sure does look like everyone had a ball.
I swear, all the characters must go absolutely nuts with excitement when they see you all coming.
Yeah... Happy. And yet I'm terrified just from the photos.
You always have so many great photos, but I appreciate this one so very much. Love for Roy just makes me smile.
Yes the characters tend to go nuts when the see us. It makes it so much fun!
I absolutely love your outfits and trip report. What special memories you will have to cherish for the rest of your lives.
Aww, thanks SO much!
What a great family pic! The Welcome Show is so magical, glad you all got to see it!!
AWWWW that pic of Bronwyn seeing the castle, SO great!
Great pics with Tiana, I love the outfit change!
Woah at that rainbow grilled cheese!
LOVED the Welcome Show! It was such a great way to start the day. And when Bronwyn spotted the castle, seeing the magic in her eyes gave me such a great feeling. That is why I love Disney so much.
Yeah that rainbow bread was cool, wasn't it?
I am loving your review! I just booked a BLT 1-bedroom villa for our first WDW trip next February. I can't wait to see your pictures and hear about your stay there. We will definitely eat at The Wave!
You are going to absolutely LOVE BLT!! Oh just wait... the lobby smell, the speedy elevators (I swear they are the fastest elevators that I've ever been on) the monorail, the views. And the 1-bedroom villa is SO nice! It's amazing!!
We have a 2-bedroom villa booked in February! What dates will you be there?
Somehow I am not getting the email notifications, but glad I found you have updated your TR!
I think seeing the pure joy on little kid's face is the best thing at Disney... those photos are so cute and precious!
Princess Tiana seems so happy to see the kids... again great outfits! BTW, how was the weather? I see Tiana in her winter cape, but you seem to be fine in summer clothes.
My email notifications don't seem to be working with this new system either!
The weather was actually cooler than I expected. I always think "hot" when I think of Florida. But most mornings and evenings we needed a light cover-up. Most of the time we took those off for pictures though. During the day it got nice and warm. So definitely layers in November if you're going to be going at the time of year.
You got such great pictures in the morning at MK! Definitely worth getting there a little early!
The welcome show is just the best. No better way to start your MK day! Makes me tear up EVERY time.
That picture of Bronwyn pointing at the castle is PRECIOUS!
Looks like you are having an awesome Disney day
Can't wait to hear about BLT!!
Oh we did have such a great morning in MK. The Welcome Show was the perfect way to start the day. And seeing Bronwyn's face when she saw the castle, that made me tear up. Just so magical!
as usual the outfits are AMAZING! I loved the twirling pictures and the pointing at the castle. So adorable.
Looks like you had a great meet with Tiana.
I just love seeing the new outfits. Each time I'm wondering what we will see next. They are so beautiful!
Aww, thank you thank you! And believe me, you won't be disappointed, there are a bunch more outfits to see.
So many great updates!! Isn't it just an incredible experience to see the MK gates soooo empty and then get to enjoy the amazing opening show? My favorite part of any MK day, for sure.
Love Jorie's magic shot & Bronwyn's face at seeing the castle...priceless! As are all the kids' faces on 7DMT! We are so excited to finally get to ride it next trip. Fingers crossed for a FP+! When Joe went to use the Rider swap, did he also have to have a FP+? Just curious. We haven't experience rider swatch yet since FP+ took effect. With paper FP, you didn't also have to have a FP to experience using the rider swap pass. Just wondering if that has changed.
I can only imagine how excited Tiana was to see the girls coming in those adorable Tiana dresses!! It looks like she spent quite a bit of time with them. How sweet!
I had wondered that too...but it looks like it hasn't changed. We found that the second person riding never needed a FP+ when using a Rider swap.
Have a great time!! Sounds like it will be a super fun trip!!
We had the BEST time!!! I hope that you had a great trip as well! I can't believe it's come and gone already!
Here's to planning the next trip, right?
Yay for an adult only getaway!!! We arrive on May 2! I am sad that this is the last Everest Challenge, we wanted to try it one year.
I LOVE your running outfits!!
It was SO different being there without the kids. We definitely need to do it more often, hehe.
I hope you had a fabulous trip as well!
