We had a super short 4th of July trip to Disney over the weekend! I didn't take a ton of photos on my phone -- we forget the power brick for recharging, so I was trying to save power, especially on Monday when we were at Magic Kingdom all day from 8am to midnight! And Sunday when we did Typhoon Lagoon... but I'll get to all that. Friday I had ...
Chase & I bought our Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party tickets yesterday... ya'll don't understand, I have wanted to go to this for AGES but with it falling right after Dragon Con every year, it was just a no-go, money-wise and vacation-time wise. Since we're severely cutting back on Dcon this year, we are finally going to be able to go !! We've known what costumes we've wanted to do ...
I've gotten my portfolio updated -- I added Disneybound Leia and Edith! And I got Chase's photos uploaded! Brainfreeze: Me & Kev Me and Kev Part 2 Walking thru Hollywood Studios Oddly enough, this is now the 2nd photo we have of Kevin being menaced by a blow-up Stay Puft Marshmellow Man. This Guardian of the Galaxy group was one of my favs: Me and Kev, Part 3 And now a bunch ...
I downloaded our Photopass pictures last night! We used it a lot more this trip than last trip, got a lot of good stuff. On Main Street the first night there... Mine Train... Meeting Cinderella... and Rapunzel... Anna... And Elsa... Also I forgot to say I bought this shirt, I'm wearing it today! Hollywood Studios! Mike! Meeting Olaf... Heading to Tower of Terror! TOT ride photo... there is something going ...
Saturday morning I was up and getting in costume, while Chase got Kevin into his Luke costume. Thankfully, Edith was easy to get into. Like I (think I) mentioned the other day, I decided to forego the wound prosthetics, which made getting ready much faster. We got to the convention center early, and..... parked in the wrong parking lot. We parked at the wrong concourse, but by the time we ...
Wednesday after work, Kev and I started loading the car waiting on Chase to get home. It was raining which didn't make it an easy job! Kevin thought we were just going to the convention. He had noooo clue. Nana & Kristie got him a Stefon shirt for the trip! That night we stopped in Columbus, GA for a quick overnight stop - we got in around 11:30, back up and ...
I am ensconced in Disney On Friday, I pre-ordered our Be Our Guest breakfast for our May trip. Then I booked our hotel for the July trip. Then Chase got our package booked for the September trip! Then I booked our dining for the October trip! And when we got home our May magic bands were in the mailbox a day early: Today I booked the fastpasses for the July ...
It's actually pretty difficult to plan multiple trips at once, but with the way you have to schedule eveeeeeeeryting in advance now it's unavoidable. I was already planning Trip 2 before we even left for Trip 1, and now that we're coming up on Trip 2, I have Trips 3 and 4 in motion. You should see how ridiculously long my Dining Reservations list is! Anyway, Trip 2! Trip 2 is a special trip. We are going ...
Last night I got our Photopass pictures downloaded, as well as what was on our little digital camera. (Turns out there was only like, 6 photos on the digital camera and 4 of them were repeats of our photopass photos... LOL) Me & Jake: Yes, I stood in line by myself, a grown woman who has never even watched this show, to meet Jake from Neverland. I wanted to meet him to ...
This trip was a whirlwind. The shortest trip we've ever done (yet) it was a big experiment for us. This was our first time only doing 3 (technically 2 1/2) days, our first time in a long time NOT doing the dining plan, and our first time driving straight through the first day. Let's see how those experiments turned out... along with my cellphone photos (I'll come back and add photopass photos later). ...
