Please more....I have things here I dont want to do...I just want to read TRs all day!

missymouse · 06-08-2008

I love the pictures of Alice with Christian! That really touched my heart, so I can imagine how you and your DH felt. They brought tears to my eyes.

**packerbeth** · 06-08-2008

Thanks, everyone, for your kind comments. We're home from church so I will get right on the next installment of PP pics!

**packerbeth** · 06-08-2008

Onto the Animal Kingdom! We saw a lot of characters on this day!

First, a nice shot of our nice, calm family...

...and now what we're normally like!

Even Kate got into the action!

Our first character of the day was Miss Minnie!

Goofy rocks!

What a wonderful photo of Christian with Goofy! He is one of Christian's favorites!

There was absolutely no wait to see Pooh and friends in the Character Landing across from Flame Tree BBQ! Kate had been sleeping, and we debated about waking her up, but decided she definitely wouldn't want to miss her favorite Winnie the Pooh! As you can see, she was very happy even though she was still pretty sleepy!

Rose really surprised me this trip. This was the girl who hung back while her sisters got all the cuddles and hugs from the characters on our last trip. She was so excited to see Piglet, because we hadn't met him yet!

Kate looks like she's not so sure of Tigger here...

but seems to like him better in this photo!

After our character visit and viewing of the Nemo musical (with its requisite potty breaks!) we went to the Tree of Life. I love this icon so much, and we got some nice photos here!

We had the Simba shot taken with all of the kids, but it only worked for the big girls. Apparently, Kate and Christian's arms weren't positioned the correct way for the PP folks to know to put Simba there.

We took two sets of pics in front of Everest: one in the early evening...

And a little later in the evening...

Love how Kate is hamming it up right along with us!

Up next: a couple of solo MK PP shots, then I'll catch back up with the TR.

Ohmygoodness, I just can't get over that wonderful interaction you guys had with Alice! It seems like it's so rare these days that a character will spend so much loving time with one family.

Okay, back to reading now!

dznygrl · 06-08-2008

Okay, you guys got some of the COOLEST and FUNNIEST Photopass pictures ever! I love them!

Hunny · 06-09-2008

We are definitly doing PP more this time. I don't know why but last time we only took like 3 or 4 pics... sad i know
You guys seem like a hoot to be around!

iluvpoohbear · 06-09-2008

Great TR!!!

dixie · 06-09-2008

Fantastic TR and even better were the photographs what a pleasure it's been to read thanks.

**packerbeth** · 06-09-2008

Sorry, everybody, but we had wicked storms come through last night and I've had no internet today. At least we have power; my folks have been without power since last night (and they live around the corner!) Hopefully it should be back soon. I just stopped by the library to get my internet fix!

Disney 4ever · 06-09-2008

Beth, love the pics. Did you have matching shirts for each day of your trip? Did you make them or order them from someplace? They are so cute! And they really add to the pics!

missymouse · 06-09-2008

I just love all of your pictures!! It inspires me to take more on our next trip. I always forget to take them because I am such a go, go, go kind of person. I AM going to slow down this trip and make pictures!!

MickeyEars · 06-10-2008

Beth, I absolutely LOVE the matching shirts - It makes for some awesome photos - would I ever get Rob to wear matching shirts?? - Not in a Million Gazillion years!!! Maybe I can make some up for our no kids trip and surprise them on him - I am the one who does the packing...maybe I could pull it off.

JustaT · 06-13-2008

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your photopass pictures. You really took advantage of the photopass photographers. Next time I am going to pre pay for a photopass and do the same thing. I love the hook pictures....so cool.

mabutler · 06-13-2008

OMGosh! I can't wait until we go. Now I want to stay at the Poly!
