Yes, March! Birthday is March 9th to be exact, so somewhere around there. And I wanna be extravagant as possible because it'll be so necessary after all this pandemic craziness!
Isn't it great to get to slow down and enjoy the little stuff? Though there is something to be said for getting as much done as possible...
Major score!
Whatttt joint spies? How cool! Someday I'll be the Rebel Spy!
Noted, Sci-Fi in March
Oooh delicious! my kind of shake.
Such a beautiful outfit! I looooved this movie (even though I thought I wouldn't).
This is one of my favorite pictures of you from the trip. you look totally blissed out!
Yay count me in!!
I loved the live-action Aladdin too!! Aladdin is my favorite animated Disney movie so I was skeptical at first, but it just makes you smile so much!!
Wow, nice!
I've only been there once and can't wait to go back again someday
Ugh, so annoying.
Adorable
In the very best way
We stayed surprisingly dry. Great way to wait our a storm.
Yum…my absolute favorite treat!
I don't really like normal packaged Rice Krispie Treats, so I'm surprised that I love the Disney ones so much!! They are always really fresh and the chocolate is amazing! Ahhh Iove Sci Fi so much! Even though the video loop always stays the same, I never get tired of it
I can totally see why she would be your new best friend!
Oh my gosh, I may have crumbled! You did well coming up with names.
I haven't met Lesley yet but I met Caroline (and Andi) and she is SO sweet!
Same......I was on a solo trip summer of 2017 and watched HEA for the first time. I was very apprehensive as I loved Wishes so much ( even have a Wishes tattoo) and I loved it! By the time "Let go of the pain of the past, you don't have to feel it anymore" came on, I was full on sobbing, lol!
The best way to grow up!
Nothing wrong with that! I wish my boys would go with me as often as I would like them too. My oldest son and I were going to go in July for his 20th but the whole pandemic craziness cancelled that so we will do next summer for his 21st instead!
What a fantastic career! I've been in the early years my whole career as well. I taught preschool, was a centre director, ran a family resource centre and am now teaching kindergarten in the school board. 4-5 year olds are my favourite!
Awesome! I am all about the nostalgia as well.
Ice cream and people watching/chatting is the best!
Putting this on my list!
Same! I could eat that peanut sauce with a spoon!
This is great!
So fun! I love Sci_fi too, it is always a must do on our family trips.
Hi!! So glad you're here
Caroline is just the sweetest lady, I had so much fun with her on our trip and I was so happy that I got to spend some time with her in January too!!
I cried so hard my first time seeing HEA! I used to cry every time I saw Wishes, but I only cry about every few times that I see HEA.
I wanted to go to WDW in July sooo bad as well! The rates were really great over the 4th of July! I just don't see it opening up to any capacity that would make it enjoyable though
Smart of you to reschedule for next year!
Awww, that's so awesome that you work with the little ones too!! I love the 4-5 group too, they are so fun and smart! Although, I have an extra soft-spot for the 2 year olds now
Spending May 4th at DHS sounded so fun! I love your Leia space buns! And I'm glad you got to dine at Sci-Fi!
Sounds like a great time with the group at Epcot!
That stinks about the cruise getting cancelled
But still sounds like you guys turned it into an awesome night!!
Haha I love the pic of you with the pizza!
It was such a bucket-list item to spend May 4th at WDW and I'm so glad that we did! Someday, I will do a fireworks boat cruise, I was so sad that ours got cancelled
It did turn out to be a fabulous night, though!
I'm loving reading all about your trip!! I love the community that the DIS creates, and it seems like you all had a wonderful time! Also super jealous of your stay at the YC--it's on the top of my resort bucket list!
Thank you!!
It has been so amazing to meet people from all over the world that share our love of Disney!! I loooove the YC; more and more I'm being drawn towards the Crescent Lake resorts over the Monorail resorts. The location simply cannot be beat and it's a much more laid-back and adult vibe over there!
I want to try this! I never have and I actually have the recipe for it and keep meaning to post it
I like sweet drinks but for some reason I always thought this would be TOO sweet for me but after actually looking at what's in it lol I think I'll like it.
What?? PASS on TOT? Blasphemy!
Ricky absolutely loves milkshakes which is one reason we always go to the Plaza when we're there. We aren't huge fans of Sci Fi so I never think of it for shakes but now
think I may add it for June or July!
definitely sounds like Joe!
Yup that's where we headed
I don't regret anything we did and we had SO much fun but I wish we'd gotten to spend more time together on the EPIC trip! At least we had January
and now we need to line up another trip that overlaps!
The Glow-Tini was sweet but for me, the sweeter the drink the better!
I've always wanted to try and re-create Disney recipes but I get scared that they won't turn out as good and I'll be disappointed!
Haha! I like ToT but I need to be in the right mood for it
YES you should definitely try Sci-Fi for shakes! Although they don't have malt powder apparently, which is a bummer because I almost always make my shake into a malt!
We definitely need to meet up again!! I had sooo much fun with all of you guys in January! I still think about our night at the Boardwalk all the time- I think I almost peed my pants laughing so hard!!
My neighbors have been attempting to try a new fish fry every Friday for the last year or so. Luckily the safer at home hasn’t stopped their quest. We are just west of Milwaukee and they went all the way out near Madison last week, just to check somewhere new off the list. True dedication.
Hey neighbor! I'm in a city just west of Milwaukee as well!! Too funny
That's such a fun project that your neighbors are doing, definitely something to keep the spirits up!!
Flower and Garden is my favorite Epcot festival too and I'm so bummed to miss it this year
Ahhh, such a bummer
I'm so glad that I didn't have any trips officially planned during this time. I got all of the Disney out of my system with my 4 trips! I'm hoping I can be back for F&G next year!
I got this too and it was so good.
Soo yummy!! I really liked every single thing I tried at F&G!
Love this, that's a really wholesome tradition!
they sound like what we would call fish fingers here in the UK maybe?! We love a fish finger sandwich over here
I didn't know of Brad Mondo but I've just looked him up, I'll definitely watch the ANTM videos!! The make over episodes were so good weren't they
do you remember that super pretty woman who had long dark hair, and Tyra made her cut it all off into a pixie cut and bleach it, so she left the show...but only AFTER she'd gone ahead with the haircut
Oh my goodness these were so good, they look like this! I've only seen them last year and this year, and we didn't come across them very often. They're huge, and there's a bunch of different flavours. Jamie likes the caramel and waffle cone one, and I also like the peanut butter and banana one!
THE DREAM!!!
This is amazing. Not to make light of it in case she wasn't happy about it...... but I lowkey want this to happen to me
This is how I feel going for 2 weeks! It's so nice to take things a bit slower
Uh oh, it says it's a private video so I can't play it, but I think I see Uncle Jesse and therefore I APPROVE.
No wayyyy!! GO YOU!
Jamie and I have NEVER been the rebel spy and we're very upset about it.
Ugh I've been thinking this too, I've always wanted that shirt, but promised myself I'd only get it when I actually was the rebel spy
I feel personally attacked by this quote.
I have so many Disney t-shirts that I've spent a fortune on, and they're all just pyjamas / loungewear now
Never done it!!
Oww mannn that's too bad. But it's still something new to look forward to for another time
Also loved your account / photos of Flower and Garden, I haven't been as an adult but I would love to one day
Thanks for sharing!
YES! I remember that ANTM makeover so well! I remember watching it when it first aired back when I was like 10 or so and being SHOCKED!
Yummm those candy bars look sooo good, I always see them around but I've never thought to pick one up! I will make sure to get a bar or two next time I'm in WDW!
Someday I will go for 2 weeks..... someday!! That would be heaven. Ahh shoot I'll have to change the privacy settings on the video! It's a video from the WDW episode of Full House; Danny talks about making personalized itineraries for everyone! Then everyone groans and he says, "No need to thank me, I actually kind of enjoyed it"
STORY OF MY LIFE.
Haha, as soon as I got the Rebel Spy, I thought, "I must tell Katie, she'll be so jealous!!"
You and Jamie must try Sci-Fi, I feel like you would love the kitsch of it so much! Plus, how can you go wrong with burgers, fries, and shakes?! I feel like you'd also love F&G too! Early May is probably my favorite time of year to go to WDW after September- the crowds aren't too bad, the weather is beautiful, and there's no special ticket events messing with your plans!
I loveeee Sci Fi!!! Such a fun place. When I was there back in March (right before everything happened) the speciality milkshake was Peanut Butter and Oreo combo!....
Ialso love the photo with you and the pizza, so cute!!!
Aw thanks
Oh my gosh that shake sounds like my personal heaven.. it reminds me of The Parent Trap!! Oreos and PB is an amazing combination!
Man you sure did make the most out of May the 4th. You earned that pizza at the end of the night
I'm not a big fan of MGM in general but we do love us some muppets and SciFi. I see a lot of hate for SciFi and I can never figure out why because we've always had good meals there and of course who doesn't want to eat in a drive in?
Oh the rain this day was out of control. Glad it didn't dampen our spirits and we all got to enjoy some flower and garden, even if we couldn't go on the cruise.
Haha for some reason, I was the most tired on this day! We walked around soooo much!
YES I never get the hate on Sci-Fi either?! I've had nothing but great experiences there- staff has always been super nice, and the video reel never gets old no matter how many times I've watched it! The food isn't gourmet per se but it really hits the spot when you're walking in the sun all day
The rain was so bad this day! And the next day too, I felt so bad for people who got caught in the rain after our fancy brunch!!
This is so me now. I won't get another AP until next year probably as I have my big Italy trip this Sept. but next year will be another "Year Of Disney". It truly makes/allows one to slow down and just take it all in.
HOW COULD YOU?!! LOL!! I would NEVER pass up ToT!
Awww!!
Oh man, that's awful! I know that pukey feeling and it sucks!
What an AWESOME group!
I had to LOL because I find it to be the exact OPPOSITE of "crap food". I need a bunch of Miralax after 3 days at Disney.
I hate that. I want to hear the voices of the show.
Look at those beautiful ladies!!!
I know, it was SO sad, BUT we had SUCH a nice time at Ale and Compass!! And Hurricane Hannah's. It truly turned out to be a magical and wonderful evening despite.
You are right!!!
I simply adored that evening and getting to chat and know you better. I'm much better in small groups where I can learn more about people and talk on a deeper level. The time at A&C was just magical.
Haha, I said that this year would be my only year of having an AP, but once Disney re-opens, I'm probably going to renew. I cannot go back, I've been pickled!!! It feels so good just to have the freedom to stop and smell the roses!
Haha, I love ToT, but I definitely have to be in the right mood for it! Even after all of these years, it still scares me a little bit
I wish I needed Miralax at WDW... and that is all I'll have to say about that
I LOVED our night at Ale and Compass! We had such a fun little group! I totally agree; even though I can be super extroverted, I feel much more comfortable in smaller groups. I really loved exploring the Boardwalk area so much on this trip. The Crescent Lake resorts are definitely starting to push the Monorail resorts out of the way for top location for me! I just love the adult, laid-back feel of the BC/YC and BWI so much!
