I'm going to whip my iPad out in Gettysburg and block stuff just so everyone feels like they are in Disney :) I may bring Adam's stroller and ram it into people too!

Aaron, remind me when we meet in person someday to whack you over the head with an iPad.

I was going to ask the same question! LOL. Looking forward to Date Night Pood Forn. As much as I agree with you on the Boneyard...Anna says we are both wrong and that the place rocks.

OK....so we are headed to Magic Kingdom this evening 2-12-13.

 

First though.  I noticed Lou stopped "following" this TR.

 

The weird thing was he was following it in the first place.

 

Is this like being "unfriended" on Facebook?

 

I am not part of the Facebook revolution so I am just trying to figure out if I should be offended or not?

 

Lou? 

 

Oh Louuuuuuuu.

 

Where did you go?

 

OK.

 

Enough of that.

 

We are heading to the MK for another great evening.

 

A few pics on the monorail loop on the way:

When we got inside DW and DD went to hang out in the hub area for a few minutes while DS and I went to the fire station for Sorceror cards:

I still don't understand it.  It's February 12th now.  The dreamlights are not down yet?

 

The next thing on the agenda is a family favorite.

 

The Hall of Presidents:

We absolutely love this show and the American Adventure show at Epcot. 

 

If you have never taken the time to see those shows, you should.

 

Next we decided to celebrate our unbirthday.......again:

I don't know why you think that.

If I read TRs, I would be reading this one.

Your wife is a smart woman.  Those damn teacups SMB.

 

 

I concur.

 

TCD

 

 

You have never spun with the TCD twins.

 

It's the spin.

 

I look forward to the sudden stop.

 

TCD

 

 

I would enjoy the spin with the twins.  For me it's about the control.  As long as I am an active spinner I am good.

 

 

I am with your wife, the really spinny rides get me sick.  Love the roller coasters, though!

 

 

You only have 364 un-birthdays a year.  You all and DW should learn to let loose and celebrate them more by spinning until you hurl on the teacups.

When we finished the last update, we had just finished our un-birthday party and were headed for a cruise.

 

No, we were not lucky enough to hit the exits and head for Port Canaveral.

 

We just moved next door to the Speedway:

After finishing our race we headed to Storybook Circus:

Next we got in line to see Belle and were treated to what I like to call "Wishes over Beast Castle."

In the wardrobe room:

IMG_3376_zps40b1310d.jpg

 

You'll notice thee will be a Fiend guard again.

 

But you will also notice that DS has been picked to play the Beast!

 

IMG_3382_zps9ec15caf.jpg

 

DD has been tabbed to be a dancing plate:

 

IMG_3384_zps24210189.jpg

 

And now its time for the show:

IMG_3397_zps2f89898f.jpg

 

IMG_3398_zps84af344b.jpg

 

DS did a great (and loud) job scaring Belle with his Beast roar and then got to dance with her at the end.

 

DD thought it was pretty cool too that her big brother got to do all that.

 

They both thought it was funny that I was picked to be a guard again.

 

DW thought I was picked to be a guard again bc it was the same CM giving out parts as the last time and DW thinks he had a bit of a crush on me.

 

She thinks she is funny.

 

And she is.

 

It's good to know I have universal appeal.

 

Next we would move on to the other New Fantasyland lady.....

Next we went on the Under the Sea ride:

Afterward I took a few pics on the way out:

We stopped at the Confectionary and got some rice krispy treat balls with chocolate drizzle.  We took those back to our room to eat.

 

A couple pics from the monorail platform:

Tommorrow we planned to hit the MK again in the morning and hop to the Poly to swim at the Volcano pool in the early afternoon.

Aaron, please forgive me for not commenting on your TR before now.  You started it when Dad was really sick, and for the next many days I had a hard time keeping up with TRs.  Heck, I couldn't even focus on what day it was for a long time.

 

Anyway, your kids are adorable.  I'm finally caught up with your TR.  Love the pics.  You're doing a great job.  Making me homesick for the fort!
