Dollface...CindyC

Lol. Lou I could totally see lil Lou doing that!!!

Yes. Lou is not afraid of anything! He's got a Big attitude. Yep Lou is about 2lbs, Misty is 6lbs, and Jack is 13lbs. Small Medium large. I love it!!! And Lou eats as much as the other 2. He was the last one at the bowl. And I love hat they are all so different.

Progress!! All 3 kitties sharing supper. Love it!!

Yeah. Lil Lou is so cute. And man oh man is he lucky he's adorable! He's so feisty!!! He chews on everything and everybody unless he's asleep. ha ha ha. We took him outside with us this weekend. He loved it!! He used Ken as his "safe place" and explored a bit of our front yard. Misty (our girl cat) even came over to see how he was doing. Our other male cat, Jack is terrified of the little guy... so hopefully that will change with time. But he's settling in and becoming part of our family. :heartsmiley:

I'm waiting on my Photo pass CD to arrive before I continue.....

I think it was called Motion and waves. It was. very educational, yet fun.

I hope she still comes to eat at your place.

Heres a close up. He's cleaning himself and chewing on everything he can get his teeth on. Lol

Yes his tail fur is growing back nicely! He's such a punk. So rambunctious and playful.

Lou is growing every day. He's such a pig!! I can not believe how much he eats. My other two cats are getting used to him. So it's going good. Here is photo of my girl cat, Misty sharing her dinner with Lou (who had already had dinner!!)

Love this!!! so glad you had a good time. Thanks for posting. Your family is just lovely!

Monday morning was Casey's YES class.

So, Casey and I had a quick breakfast of cereal and we headed to the bus stop. We were very lucky and only waited a few minutes for the bus, then made the 8:30 boat to MK. I was nervous about the class as I had nightmares about not finding the people/place. We got off the boat and went right to guest services. Of course NO ONE new what we were talking about! ugh!!!! I asked 3 CM's and no one knew what a YES class was. I finally found a CM who knew what I was talking about, but said a lot of the classes were already in the MK. EEEK!!! I showed them my paper work stating to meet at the MK turnstiles at 9am.... Then this wonderful CM heard us and offered to take us to find the YES class people. He stayed with us till we found some of them way off to the right hand side. Whew. By this time I was shaking! poor Casey was worried that I was so nervous. (I just knew if we didn't register that our tickets for the parks would become invalid... so I wanted to make sure we were all set). Anyway after the Opening show, they separated the kids into small groups and assigned a guide. Casey's group only had 7 kids in it. We headed into the MK and over to a side street. The guide had the kids draw a wave. Then they discussed sound waves, ect. very interesting. Then we headed over to the cafe in Tomorrow land (inside for AC) they did more hands on demonstrations and fun stuff talking about sound and light waves. Next, we went to ride the Stitch ride. Then more inside work for the kids (group questions and such).

Then we headed over to Liberty square to discuss light and refraction/reflection. After that, we headed to ride the Haunted Mansion! and the highlight of the class, we got to go BEHIND the scenes inside the HM!!! it was so cool!!!!!!!!!!! After that we saw Mickey's Philharmagic and the class was over around 12pm. Casey and I headed out back to Main Street to do some pin trading and catch the boat to the Fort, but stopped to see Auroa because her line was empty!

We went back and had some lunch and swam in the Meadow's pool. Ken and Ky had been at the pool since 10am!

Then, we headed over to Epcot around 4pm for dinner and some fun. We went to Innovations, Figment, Club Cool and some of the countries. Yummy pastry in France! Ky was a bit tired and didn't even want to go to Epcot, but she had fun once there. She had a minor meltdown over sharing her dessert... but got over it and enjoyed her choc moouse (We all shared the Choc moose, giant cookies and Apple tart). I don't have any photos since I don't have my PhotoPass CD yet, and was too busy enjoying it to take photos. whoops. Epcot was our favorite park! We went there 4 times during our vacation.

It wouldn't be a good TR without at least one hijack!! LOL!

Just wanted to post a quick update.

Lil Lou is doing great! He's eating regular kitten food now and scampering all over the place! He's really interested in our other 2 cats, who are still playing shy... Hopefully we can introduce them this weekend.

Here's a nice photo of Lou w/ my girls. and of Lil Lou riding in the truck on Casey's lap. Lil Lou was a great traveler!

He's making himself at home and we love him more everyday!

After we got our screen house set up and the bikes off the rack and such.

Then we all took the bus down to the Settlement to catch the boat to Magic Kingdom! The kids were so excited to see the castle.

They loved the boat ride.

First we stopped in the Photo pass place to the right to get my Photo pass, the girls started right in trading pins w/ the CMs. I think that was one of their favorite things to do during the entire trip. I believe they each traded their pins twice over.

Then, since the posted wait time was only 5 min. We stopped in to see Micky & Minnie. Then headed down main street.

Casey was so thrilled to see her name EVERYWHERE!!! (Ky was a bit upset about that, but got over it.)

We rode the train from Fantasy Land back to main street, but had to get off because of Thunder. So we walked down Main st again and did some shopping and pin trading. Then on to Frontier land,

We had wanted to ride Splash & Thunder mts, but they were close because of the weather. So, we rode Pirates. Bad idea for my little one. She really didn't like it. Too dark and scary for her. She only cried during the cannon scene, so she did okay. Since most outdoor rides were still closed, we went to the Tiki room. Ky loved it!! After that we did some more shopping. The kids were tired and it was way after 8pm by then. So we headed out. (Kylie does NOT like fireworks, so we didn't want to push our first day.)

All in all a GOOD day!

Love to see photos from the Fort! We stayed in the 1600 loop too :-)

Yep, C&A come out at 7pm to play games with the kids. so fun!

My 9 year old DD took the YES class at MK in Aug 2012. We both LOVED it!!! It was so worth the 3 hour morning in the park to save the money on the tickets and be able to get more days and the park hopper/water park option! The class was fun, educational, and exciting!

If anyone wants any further details, just PM me. I'd be glad to talk about it.

Lou I'm so happy to hear that you caught Lil Lou's mom and that you'll take her to the vets. I need to make an appt for our little guy too.

My kids loved that Running thing and PIggy Bank adventure in Innovations! we spent quite a bit of time in there. We also like The Land and boat ride. Looking at your photos makes me want to shout "I was JUST there!" ahh... I miss it already. Can't wait for more.

Thanks for joining in!

Stefa70--yep we call her toothless. She lost yet another of her top teeth while at the Fort, but more on that later!

Judy--yes it was a long drive! but worth it.

TCD--yep totally trying to savor these years. But your relationship w/ your teenage daughters gives me hope!

Charity--yep! priceless!!! I loved that they were so excited.

hi Carol!

dellasgirl -- kitten photos in the middle and end of the trip.

TJ!

Monique--glad to have you aboard.

Nicki--thanks for joining in!

We woke up pretty late (8:30 am) on Sunday had breakfast.

And we got on the road.

I wanted to stop at the FL welcome center, but Ken didn't feel like pulling in. So, no free OJ for us. oh well.

I was live chatting with a few of the Fiends (Bob, Doodle, etc) as we were pulling into the area. They "talked" me right into our site! I must say it was very very fun and exciting to share the moment of arrival with them LIVE on chat.

We ARRIVED about 1:30pm.

Drove thru the gates, then on the the MK toll booth.

The Fort!!!! so exciting. The CM on duty was very nice to us and gave us our 1st time buttons.

Gotta go work on more photos. :-)

Preview: we set up our site and headed to Magic Kingdom!

Hi! Well, we had a GREAT time on our first family trip to Disney World. Here's a few photos and some details. Thanks to all the fiends who made this a MAGICAL vacation!

Ken finished up his work around noon and I left work around 2:30pm on Friday Aug 17th. We were pulling out of the driveway at 4pm!

The weather was good and we were making good time. There was a bit of traffic, but it was moving.

The girls (Casey -9, and Kylie -6) were so excited to finally be on our way to Disney!

We drove for about 1 hr before we stopped for gas, then got the kids settled down in their pjs. Other than some construction traffic in PA on rt 81, we made good time and stopped in Harrisburg, PA at a Cracker Barrel for the night at about 12:30am.

We all woke around 8am Sat morning had a good breakfast at CB then headed out.

We stopped at a playground in Virgina for lunch.

The girls ran around and played while I made sandwiches. After about 45min we were back on the road again.

Everyone was in good spirits.

Rest stop in NC

Then another stop for dinner at a playground again.

Ken drove the entire way... he said he'd rather drive than sit in the passenger seat. We didn't hit any traffic and the going was good.

We sang, watched movies, colored and slept our way to bottom of South Carolina. We stopped at about midnight in another Cracker Barrel. Just a few hours more to Disney!

We love the shaved ice outside of Japan in Epcot! Refreshing on a hot day. Turkey Leg!!! a meal in itself. :-)

Since I was just there... I totally LOVED the HDDR! I didn't really plan on going, but my brother bought us tickets. We all loved it. The show was so funny and the food was wonderful! It's worth going to.

We also all loved Epcot. We spent 3 days there this past trip, and could have spent another day! It was my favorite park!

So, I don't think you could go wrong with either option.

Nice pool Lou! I hope our Louie will like his new home and feline siblings.
