Yesterday I got some things at the Thift store for my Tinkerbell gifts. A mickey mouse light up spinner, a Mickey Mouse safira (sp) flashlight, also got some things for in the car, a winnie pooh magnetic 1-2-3 in a tin, andanimal adventure sticker fun book with reuseable stickers and some little disney books, I paid, .35 to .50 cents for each. I love going to the Thrift Store.

Do you know what time the hallowishes will be at? I'm
trying to figure out if our ADR at Narcoresse's is to early to see the fireworks.

Have the grandchildren thought of any more characters that they would
like autograph pages for?

Rosie, who your favorite DisneY character?

I was think ing about the Party in the park Too.
Have a good night
Grace

Grace I like Pooh and friends !! But my heart belongs to TINK!!!
The picnic lunch at AK sounds great I will have to see if the gang want to do it or FTB !! I may decide that day as if the waether is super hot air conditioning is gonna rule !!

Well I learned a couple of thungs today

The Noodle station has a buffet on certain days in August and September AND it also just started A Dessert Party for Wishes !! The desserts look soooo good !! It's not on the ddp and costs about $17 . I want do it this year even if went till Sept as cost wise with 6 of us but if they have it when I am solo OH YEA!!

Jordan this might be a possibility for 2012 !!

Samntha and I wnt Dollar store Disey shopping ! I pickedup 2 more umbrellas ,Chewable pepto, motrin,more glow stickee stuff !! Last but not least a bunch of candy things for the kids treat bags !! I am putting them in individual sammy bags this time and I have 7 for each kid made up already, couple more and I am done !! Then I need in room snax and breakfast items !!Oh yes I also got paper plates sowe can share cs meals ! I checked my TRIAL sizes Jorda and I have an abundanceof toothpastes , mini deodorant,hand sanitizer so obliviously I hav been checking those Target aisles !!

I am still hoping for some input on the PICNIC in the Park at AK!! Now if Disney would only work on DHS!!!

[englishrose47]

I am still looking at CS places !! I am taking into consideration menus indor or at least shady seating !! Which rules out a couple !! So far these are my thoughts
Pop ( obviously)
Backlot Express at DHS
Flame Tree BBQ at AK
Sunshine Seasons a Epcot !!

In choosing these I am loking at what Judy could share,the kids will like and of course coolish seating !! I picked Pop as weare staying there and they hve a large election that is sharable !!Backlot Express due to duouble cheeseburger ( shareable )FlameTree BBQ the girls want some ribs and they have fruit plate , also I hear there are shady eating areas , Sunshine Seasons, the chicken and the DESSERTS!!! So what do you think !!

Other places include ABC and Toy Story Pizza at DHS
Cosmic Rays at MK
Liberty Inn at Epcot
Picnic in the Park at AK
Pepper Market at CSR
When Judy and Sandy go off for their night out I'm gonna suggest either Earlof Sandwich or Wolfgang Puck express !! Those sandwiches are def. shareable !!!

[lazydoxy66]

Doug and I enjoyed eating by the water back behind Flame Tree. The seating is covered with fans. You just need to watch the birds.

Decor under the roof


The view




The uninvited guests

Rosie they all sound great to me. Loved earl of sandwich!

[englishrose47]

The seating behind the FTB looks cool!! I think I'll forget to tell them about the uninvited guests !!!

DHS is the hardest though !!I don't think Judy can have Pizza or salad !!Which is the menu at Toy Story Pizza !!I liked Catalina Eddies last year but seating is not abundant and it is not shady!!!Basically that leaves ABC or Backlot !! Any comments on these and Oh yes the Picnic in the Park at AK?????

I am fine tuning my touring plans still although I know the drill well !! Get there at Rope Drop and FP!!!! Personally I avoid EMH in favor of heading to the ones that don't have it as I get 1 hour more sleep and usually the other parks are not as crowded !!Also if the park you re going to had pm EMH the night before it is a good mojo chance !! (Borrowed from my Peep Jordan the word "Mojo")

[englishrose47]

I have a few things plan to buy/get for the family and this one is for the kids !!!


[IMG][/IMG]

I think they will love getting a pearl !! Also will get them those Build a Cups at Club Cool which is also new to them !! Remember Judy didn't think there was anything to do at Epcot !! She now thinks she made a HUGE mistake !!! Samantha has NOT let her forget that she did not see Germany!!

[englishrose47]

Well I need to bump me up a bit !!

Yesterday I took Steph out to buy a new bikini!! She couldn't fit in the one she had !! These TEENS are sprouting if ya know what I mean Found one she liked FINALLY !!!after several stores ! Target was the one !! They also had cute swimsuit cover ups .. so I got them both one !! Steph LOVES her swim attire !!I also went on line to the Disney semi annual sale and got them each a 3 piece set so they should be OKAY for Sept !! I can't believe how different they are Sam will be wearing a Tshirt over her swimsuit ( Which will not be a bikini) Steph on the other hand is quite comfortable sporting a 'Kini!!

I am also stocking up on the sales for snax !! Got pringles on sale at cvs and have hidden a few containers for Sept ! I'll be shipping down all the park and room food a week before we go !! Am ordering water and other perishables from Garden Grocer !

Well that's about it for now ! Let me know if you have any tips ideas etc !!

[Grace and Mickey]

Grace I have stayed in the 60's and the 50's !! Do you have preferred rooms or not !! We stayed on the 4th floor of the 60's Lakeside and it was super quiet !!The 50's I have also stayed lkesideand it been quiet !!This time I think I will request Poolside inthe 50's standard room asJudy wants poolside !! I think she's gonna regret it when they start power washing early in the am if she's trying to sleep !! but she doesn't want 1 st floor so here'hoping !!
