Marie & Nick have been together for quite a while. They met when we all lived in Medford. We're thrilled they're finally making it official!!

Shy does love those cars (that aren't moving). When she rode with Mike on Autopia she didn't want to drive.

While reading through your trip report I've been thinking how much in common we have. I'm a few years older than you, been married 32 years, have 3 children (although I have 1 boy and 2 girls). Now I find out something else. My son...also named Nick

All the pictures of the kids are so precious...love them all!!!

DnA2010 · 01-28-2013, 06:05 PM

Lots of great pictures! I just love how happy Michayla is! There are several pictures of her looking at Minnie which are just fantastic!

Ice cream and all the yummy toppings looks great too!
I really think that when we make it make we will be splurging for our first character meal! I think DD will be more into the characters the next time round..she just wasn't that keen the 1st time, too many other things to see and be amazed by..I think she didn't want to let her guard down and just accept who and what they are and just enjoy them...

It sounds like you must have a great time together!! Thank you so much for all of the tips and entertainment. I can't wait to hear how it all ends!

WELCOME!!! We had a good time.....well, most of the time. We did have the occasional issue with the 7 & 11 yr olds but we won't go into details.

I'll get more posted tomorrow. Today the twins had appts all day at the Children's Hospital 2 hrs away.

Isn't it funny how you're drawn to certain PTR & TR's!! I've enjoyed chatting back & forth~~message me if you're a Facebook person & want to become "friends"!

She was definitely more into characters this trip! So really special moments!

So kids like the furries over face characters & some like the opposite. Hopefully this next trip your DD will be more open to the characters & she'll have some of those special moments too!!

Let's catch up.....Ty & Addy and Anthony came back to join Mike & I and the twins to catch the 1pm parade.

Before the parade starts, an announcement about a local marching band that would be making their way down the parade route.

Then another announcement for another band.

Then one more announcement for a band.

Then the familiar music of the Christmas Fantasy Parade!!

The Toy Soldiers, one of my favorite parts!

DizNee Luver · 01-29-2013, 11:19 AM

Next was Daisy & Donald, Pluto & Mrs Claus!

Pluto was so playful!!

Pooh came sledding up the path.

Followed by Tigger.

Winter Wonderland.........

So there was a little breeze today......so the skating snowflakes were NAKED!!

DizNee Luver · 01-29-2013, 11:31 AM

The snowflake covered tree.

The cute little snow people!!

Mickey & Minnie ice skating on their pond.

Poor Eeyore........his sled broke!

DizNee Luver · 01-29-2013, 11:43 AM

Gingerbread Time!

So Cute!

Here comes Chef Goofy & son Max.

Watch out!! It's the evil stepmother & the evil stepsisters!

DizNee Luver · 01-29-2013, 11:55 AM

The Royal Ball.

Ariel~~

Belle & the Beast~~

Next up was Toyland!

Chip & Dale~~

DizNee Luver · 01-29-2013, 12:08 PM

Woody up on the rocking horse.

Santa's Elves~

The Toy Factory with Geppetto, Jiminy Cricket & Pinnochio.

The toy making, painting & wrapping machine.

More of Santa's Elves~

Buzz Lightyear to the rescue!!

DizNee Luver · 01-29-2013, 12:17 PM

Heigh Ho, Heigh Ho.......

The Carolers (no singing but lots of dancing!!)

Santa's Reindeer.

DizNee Luver · 01-29-2013, 12:29 PM

Well if we've seen the reindeer......it must be time for Santa!!

The kids loved seeing the parade again & being so close to the action. Shy was antsy and ready to go do something......so we asked her what she wanted to do and she said "fast train, fast choo choo"!! So we headed to BTMRR.

After the ride, we headed back to Main Street. I wanted to combine the photopass cards we had and put them all onto the one photopass+ card, so I went to the camera shop, while the rest of the family hung out. They got to see the Dapper Dans (I missed them this trip).

DizNee Luver · 01-29-2013, 12:44 PM

After watching the Dapper Dans, Mike headed into the Candy Palace to pick up our Candy Cane!!!

I wanted to make one more stop on Main Street to pick up the Precious Moments Cinderella Doll before heading back to the hotel. It happened to be a special day in the shop because the Doll Artisan that designed these Precious Moments dolls was in the shop & signing them!! BONUS!!!!

For the Snow White lovers out there......check out this collection!!

Linda Rick chatting with me & saying I really needed to add the prince....I mean what's Cinderella with out her Prince Charming?? I declined.....for this trip.....there's always next time!!

So here's the doll~

Here's Linda Rick's autograph on Cinderella's belly!!

We got back to the hotel, so here's the candy cane~~They're good sized & wrapped nicely for traveling. We saved this for when Derek was finally home with us in early January. It was DELICIOUS!!!!!

Oh my gosh Cinderella is beautiful!!
