I'm so glad to hear that your trip went perfectly! I was living vicariously through Jess and your tweets and instagram posts the whole trip, and I can't wait to hear all about it in your next trip report. They best feeling in the world is knowing that you're going back to Disney soon so I hope that work out for you!
Thank you so much! I am thinking it will work out and I AM SO EXCITED!
Welcome home! I loved following all of yours and Jess's pictures from the trip on Instagram, and now I can't wait for the TR! UGH I'm still so bummed about missing Hanson, but I still had a wonderful time so I can't complain too much.
That is really amazing that your Eugene & Rapunzel friends were the same as last year. FATE.
Thank you! If it makes you feel any better, they didn't really play anything out of the ordinary. I mean, I'd hate to miss it anyway so I know how you feel, but it wasn't like they did something you haven't seen. Though, they did play Runaway Run which had me literally running and screaming since at that moment I was actually in Italy. Jess was like "WHAT?!" and I just RAN to the stage. hahaha
Gah! I just took a look at your Instagram pics and your costume was PERFECTION! And you were working it! I'm so glad you had such a wonderful time!!!
Thank you so much! It was truly magical!
Obviously I was following along on Instagram the entire time, and I'm so happy you guys had fun and really have become amazing friends, Disney brings people together so well!!
I LOVED your mnsshp costumes!! HM dancers is on the list of like, 5 costumes for next year for us, we've got lots of parties we'll need to hit up bahah!
Can't wait to hear all about it!! And Ooooo!! WHEN!!?? are you headed back??
Thanks Katt! I'm happy you had a great MNSSHP trip as well. Disney really does bring friends together.
Thank you! I want to go to like, every Halloween party next year.
I have to think of some simpler costumes though because being a ballroom dancer is hard work!
I will let you know!
Welcome back Lia! 
It sounds as though you could not have had a more perfect time - I'm so happy for you! I totally get how you feel about Disney - it's like leaving the real world behind and stepping back into your childhood
I've just had a look at your photos on Instagram and they are wonderful! I can't wait to hear all the stories behind them! And your Halloween costume is AMAZING - I'm really impressed!
Looking forward to reading more!
Best wishes,
S.xx
Thank you so much for all the kind words & for following along!
Welcome back, Lia! Well, I took your advice and am now on Twitter, so that I could follow you during your MNSSHP trip. It was so awesome to get to see/read things in 'real time'. You were right, it is great. Although.....I only follow you and Jess at the moment...And you even responded to me once (@silvermyst22)! (I am so behind on technology!)
Anyhoo, I just cannot agree more with your statement about being lucky and having a place that really gives you that magical feeling. I feel sorry for people that do not have that. It really is just one of the best feelings in the world. 
I have never seen the holiday lights and decorations at WDW, so I am extremely excited that I will get to go for one day in early December. 
We are tacking on one of those silly "90 minute" timeshare presentations to the end of our Turkey Day visit to family and going to the Magic Kingdom for one day. It is driving me crazy to only go one day. And to only see one park in all of its glory, but it's a start! I am grateful that I will finally get to see the castle dripping in lights and Main Street lit for the grand holiday. Yay!
Oh, and your costume? The BOMB!!! You did such an amazing job on it. Is costume designer on your resume too? Phew! You got some crazy talent, girl (ghoul). 
Okay, no more hijacking of your TR.
Carry on. 
Thank you! Glad you joined Twitter and followed along!
I feel sorry for them too. So many people I know do not get it AT ALL and I just have no idea how it can possibly be described without feeling it.
YAY! I am happy you will get to see them. Even though it's only one day, it's better than nothing. You will have an amazing time. Those dream lights are unreal.
Thank you SO much! It was so much fun but a lot of hard work making the costume!
It sounds as though the trip was truly magical. I can't wait to hear all about it.
It really was. Reliving it with you guys will be so great!
Wow, it sounds like the trip was beyond magical!!!
And I am SO excited to hear that you are likely going again... soon!
It was. And yes I think I am. I AM EXCITED TOO.
OK Lia... just so I'm clear... You're saying it was a good trip??
SO glad it was as amazing as it was. I think you make a really good point about naysayers and people who criticize (some of which may be perfectly valid). At this point in time, I truly believe Disney is what
YOU make it to be. The magic is there as long as you open your heart and mind to embrace it. And with each passing year, at least for me, going to Disney is even MORE necessary. It's medicine for the soul.
And
THANK GOD MICKEY TALKED TO YOU!!!!!! I would have hated to be wrong about that.
I already commented about your costumes on Twitter, but again, OMG THEY WERE AWESOME!!!!!!!! Shear PERFECTION!
I'm going to refrain from commenting too much on this trip and just wait until the TR to really let loose but suffice it to say, I'm super delighted this trip was as magical as it was, you gal's friendship is such a beautiful thing, and YAY for another trip "very soon".
Eh... it was okay.
Thanks. You're so right. My need to go just gets more and more pressing as the years go on!
I would have hated that too! I really didn't expect it to actually happen. I'll never forget when Jess and I walked into his room and heard that voice. I think our hearts stopped!
Thank you so much!
Yeah there will definitely be plenty of time for more comments... what with this TR needing to be finished, the next one written, and another trip coming up... Oh lord.
Hi Lia! So glad you and Jess had a great time!! Can't wait to hear all about it in Halloween Perfection TR .
So, selfishly I'm glad there is another trip in the works because that just means yet another wonderful TR!! Your TRs are getting me through to my trip in April which I'm so excited about. My DH are also tentatively planning a Honeymoon Re-do in October 2014...so there is a possibility to we could go twice next year. I haven't done that since I lived in Florida!
Again, so glad your trip was so wonderful and I'm in agreement with everyone else your costume was amazing!
Thank you so much!
I don't know when I am going to have time for all this TR writing but it will get done eventually! How wonderful to maybe get to go twice next year. Sending pixie dust your way and hoping it happens!
Thanks!! It was so hard to make but so fun!
PERFECTION.

I'm new to your TR. I'm on Day 3 (so I have some serious catching up to do) but I was loving it so much I just had to comment. You are such a talented writer, your TR is interesting, informative, and hysterically funny. But best of all, you are so ridiculously good at communicating your love of Disney. Reading your TR makes me happy because you put into words all the things that I feel about Disney. So basically, I can prove to my husband that I'm not crazy! Or maybe I am crazy, but I'm not alone in my Disney obsession!
