More Disney World Pictures

I found some more pictures of Faith at Disney. When you go to the parks there are lots of opportunities to get pictures taken with your favorite character and Faith did just that! There were some that had too long of lines and some that she didn't really want to meet that much but then there were some that were very popular and had photographers with them. These are the pictures taken by the real photographers - I have to buy them but that is ok, I also found a 40% off coupon that is helping me to decide to buy them :)

Faith saw Donald in Mexico at Epcot. I love the ones that show Faith hugging the characters. I think that it looks sweet. She is really good sometimes :)

I think that these princess photos are neat, especially since Faith is not dressed up as a princess in them. It was neat for her to dress up but I wanted some of her just regular too!

Faith decided that Belle and Beast are one of her favorite couples in Disney. Mine are Cinderella and the Prince but everyone has their favorite. I know that she likes Mulan too. When Mary was about Faith's age, I think that her favorite was Esmerelda on the Hunchback of Notredame. But both girls loved the 101 dalmation movies too! When I was a little girl the Aristocats was my favorite movie.

Now the big girls didn't want to get their pictures taken with the real photographers. Not really sure why, they had other areas that they took pictures that was not with characters, like over in France or by the Cinderella Castle but we never did that. I guess that is something we can try next time :)

Disney Vacation

The Potters (6), Bruces (3-4) and Webster (1) all had a glorious week at Disney World! We left on 1-23-10 and had difficulties getting to our plane once we landed in O'hare in Chicago. We ended up having to run around the American Airlines concourse to get to our flight. They kept saying over head that this was the last call for Potter and Webster on the flight to Orlando and that they were final boarding and closing the doors - yes! I even ran! Surprisingly :) I brought up the rear with Mom...anyway Bub, Scott and Dean were already boarded and telling them that we were coming. We called once we landed in Chicago from Wichita so they new we were there but just late arriving due to the plane. I now feel for the fools running in the airport - I was one of those fools and it was totally NOT my fault - believe me there is very little that will make me run! But, Disney would be one of them :)

These first few pictures are of the kids in Downtown Disney. They have tons of shopping there and a ghirdelli ice cream/chocolate shop. Not surprising for me to go there with ice cream, chocolate and shopping involved! Especially if there is Disney merchandise available :)

This picture was when we were at Epcot and we ate at a fish resturant which was pretty good. I think that Katie was sick of me taking pictures by this time so she opted out!

This is the one and only picture that I took at the Animal Kingdom. I went there and went on ride with the kids, I even got myself on the Yeti rollercoaster which I will never do again - dummie me even let Faith go on it and she was not thanking me by the end. The big girls loved it so I took them there again to ride the Yeti ride and the Dinosaur ride (that makes me sick). It is so funny how when you get old those rides no longer appeal to you!

This is a great picture of when I took the big girls to Epcot with me! We were in Morracco in the upper picture and I also wanted to get a picture of the big golf ball and it looks like Katie is holding it :)

Ok this is France at Epcot and this is as close as I will ever get to France - which is fine with me :) I did have a champagne though.

Here we are in the UK, I thought that the red telephones were cool but the flash showed up alot, I am not a good picture taker that is for sure and these are mush less than professional, but I like them.

Ok while in the UK I had to get a Bass Ale. Oh and here is a good time to check out my fanny pack. I found it funny that everyone laughs at the fanny packs but they all want to put their stuff in it. Also Mary and Katie started a count of all the fanny packs they saw and we were up in the hundreds when we left, and even found a place to buy one if we wanted. I threatened to buy each of the big girls one but I didn't do it.

Ok, here is me having another ale again. Mary liked the guy that worked at the pub that sold it to me. She thought that I should ask him for his number - I said that he was way to young. He was British and talked just like Harry Potter. I asked if I should try a Bass Ale or a Stella Draught, he pointed me in the direction of the ale and said that it was 'brilliant'.

Here is Bub, Scott and Dean, Dean is not happy at the moment. But he was really good for most all of the trip. I was pleasantly surprised :) Bub and Scott caught up with us the last night at the World, we were at Epcot and had dinner at the steak place in Canada called Le Celliar. It was really good!

This is another UK photo in the red phone booths - I thought that the kids looked good!

Here is Faith with Mary Poppins! She loves Mary Poppins and this was taken in Epcot in the UK. Notice that I like Epcot the best - I wonder if it has anything to do with alcohol served there... Here is another picture of Faith with Alice in wonder land. She looked cute and we were still in the UK at epcot.

When we were in epcot a different day we saw a ton of characters and even the big girls were talked into getting pictures with them.

Here is one with the girls and Max - Goofy's son and the big girls with Bolt.

This is when we were waiting to get into the Liberty Tavern to eat at the Magic Kingdom. It is a character dinner so we got to see a ton of characters and they are all dressed in colonial clothes.

Here is Faith with Chip and Faith and Caps (dad) with Dale.

Pluto is hugging Faith and Caps is watching and smiling :) And Dean is kissing Pluto on the nose. Dean happened to love the characters and liked it best that they didn't talk and seemed to speak his language of pointing and blowing kisses etc. He really was a good and sweet kid.

Minnie Mouse is giving Faith a hug whie Scott and Caps are happy :) It really is one of the happiest places in the world. And we were all sad to leave.

These are my favorite pictures of Dean - he was so happy at the character dinner he was laughing right out loud and he kissed each character on the nose, it was so cute. I think when I took these pictures he was playing peek a boo with Mary across the table and she was giving him funny faces.

This picture is when Faith dressed up and went to Epcot to Belle's castle for lunch. She got to meet all of the princesses and got her picture taken with each of them. It was located in Norway at Epcot and there was real Norway food. I got some weird stuff that I can't pronounce or say, I couldn't even say it when attempting to repeat it after our waitress who was from Norway. But she was happy to see that I was trying one of the Norway dishes.

This last picture is of Becca and Faith in Norway with a huge troll. Bec even put on one of the viking hats :) I thought that it made a cute picture.
