Disney Day 4 -Disney's Hollywood Studios

Updated: I changed the privacy settings on the online album. It should work for everyone now. Oops, sorry. I thought if I linked to an album it would automatically allow viewers. Sorry! Now you should be able to just click on the picture and see our wonderful day!

Well, can we just say that I have been horrible at getting these vacation pictures up? I am terribly sorry too! There are so many of them, I have been uploading them to online albums as I get a chance. It takes forever. Anyway, all you have to do is click on the picture below and it will take you to the album and you can see all of the pictures from day 4. We spent the day at Hollywood Studios.

We started off with a Playhouse Disney Character Breakfast. Jo Jo, Goliath, Leo, and June were there. We had a great time. Boog loves the Playhouse Disney Characters. We did this breakfast the last time we were there too. My family loves breakfast! We do not go out for breakfast much while at home. I think it is crazy the price you have to pay for a pancake or egg! So, needless to say, this was an awesome treat for daddy and the kids. While we were eating though, Boog snapped the elastic on his cap and popped himself in the chin. Poor guy. He tried so hard not to cry.

After breakfast, we headed to Mommy and Sour Apple's favorite ride, Rock 'n' Rollercoaster with Aerosmith baby! My all time favorite! I feel the need for speed, dark, twists, turns and upside downs! Woo hoo!

After this trilling ride, we headed over to Tower of Terror, Daddy and Lemon Drop's favorite. I skipped because we were wanting to see Beauty and The Beast and head over for the Playhouse Disney show too. After the shows, we went into the Imagination of Disney. (I am sure that is not what it is called but I forget right now) Sour Apple (and Daddy) love to draw and inside we got to take a class and learn to draw Dug from the movie UP. Well, needless to say...I suck at drawing...somehow we managed to not get enough seats so daddy sat with Boog and did not get a chance to show all of his skills. He ended up finishing up for Boog though. I tried to get him to take my place because we all know I cannot even draw a circle! And at Disney, a circle is the beginning of everything! Oh well.

We headed out for a late (really late) lunch and to find a place for the parade, which by the way, we thought we were at the beginning and come to find out we were at the very end. Horrible place to watch from. They were all hot and tired by the time they got to us so they just waved and walked through the gate. Oh well.

After lunch we were off to ride Toy Story Mania, the new 4D ride. It was awesome! After that, we crossed the sidewalk and met with Buzz and Woody.

When we finished, the big kids wanted to go off on their own for a bit. We played in the Honey I shrunk the kids play area then went back to ride Toy Story Mania once again.

We met up with the kids a while later and had dinner at the Sci-Fi drive in. Awesome food.

The sad part of the day, we managed to lose a bag with a Rock 'n' Rollercoaster purse that Lemon Drop had picked out and a Yoda shirt we had gotten for Boog that said, "Judge me by my size, do you?" Oh well...maybe next time.

Enjoy the pictures but please let me know if you are unable to view them. Please excuse the quality and repeats, with there being so many, I did not edit any of them. I just uploaded all of them as they were. Straight out of the camera. Sorry. I hardly ever do that. Just did not have the time! We had a fantastic time. Enjoy!







Disney Day -Disney's Hollywood Studios

Checkin' out the room...Vacation day 2

Well, I looked...and these are the only pictures I have from our first day there. LOL. It was hard work dealing with a baby, a walking boot, a stroller and a wheelchair. And of course the heat. On our first day, we had a late start. We had arrived the night before but had to stay in a different hotel, so when we got up, we had breakfast, went to the new hotel to check in then headed to the park. We hit Magic Kingdom first but only stayed there for a little while. We had dinner reservations at the Coral Reef at Epcot and some friends of ours were at Epcot as well. We hopped on the bus to go by our room first, then it was over to meet our friends and have some dinner. If you ever make it to Disney, you have to eat at the Coral Reef (and everywhere else we ate!) the food there was awesome.

We stayed in Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort in one of their newly redecorated Pirate themed rooms. They were really cool. This was the curtain that separated the bedroom from the bathroom. I thought I got more pictures because there was an engraved Flying Dutchman in the shower, and the TV was sitting on what looked like stacked crates. It was really neat, sorry I missed those pictures.
The headboard had a wheel and that is where Boog loved to hang out.
The comforters looked like gold coins and treasure.


If you are headed to Disney and have a small pirate of your own, we definitely recommend this place! It is really big and stretched out but it is worth the walk. Hopefully I have some pictures of the pool from another day. It was neat too. They also had beaches with hammocks but sadly, we did not get a chance to relax in those. :(

Not me! Monday


Welcome to Not Me! Monday, where we can be brutally honest with each other, and live to tell about it, most of the time anyway. When you are finished here, head on over to MckMama's blog to see a list of more not me's. You will be so glad you did!

Whoa, what a 2 weeks since my last Not me! I was not super happy that we skipped the Not me's! last week. I might have felt more unnecessary pressure to get my post done.

Since you last heard read, I did not break my ankle, nope, not me! I am not so clumsy that I would have fallen...INTO a boat. Nope, never would have happened. Glad it didn't either, because you might have noticed the counter in the top right corner that says something like 6ish days to Disney World! Wheew, glad I am all in one piece. I mean seriously, who wants to be in a stylish walking boot to go to Disney World!

Speaking of the trip we are not taking to Disney in 6 days, I am not so unorganized that my upstairs game room looks like a department store erupted and clothes flew everywhere! Nope, I am on task and ALL of our stuff is packed and sitting by the door waiting to be loaded. I have everything we could possibly need or want, all packed up nicely in matching luggage and color coordinated by person, including any overnight bags we need for the trip.

I am not so excited that I can barely contain myself and my kids are not absolutely busting at the seams wanting to know how many more days we have. Nope, not them. They do not get excited.

Did I mention that I DO NOT ABSOLUTELY HATE THIS WALKING BOOT THAT IS ON MY FOOT? Nope, I love it. I do not know how I have lived my life without it. It is stylish, light, cool, and the most wonderful color of black, it is comfortable and super easy to walk in. I just love how it makes my heel feel too! Yep, I love this thing! I am going to get one for everyone I know. Please let me know ASAP if you too would like to be added to my list to receive one of these beauties! Taking orders through tomorrow at noon CST! Come on, you KNOW you want one!

Well, I am not going to cut this short because I have to hobble run excitedly to Target with 3 kids in tow.

If any of you have any suggestions on how to make this boot more comfortable, please do NOT leave a comment with your suggestion...I do NOT want any help with this! Oh, and I have not purchased 2 different types of gel heel pads along with trying out the heel cup the doctor's office gave me.

That is my Not me! for this week. I will not be taking the next 2 Mondays off, because I will not be at Disney World with my family having the time of my life stuck in this stinkin boot sporting a cool walking boot!

Now, head on over to see the folks at My Charming Kids and see what everyone else has not been doing!
