First day we take them to Epcot to ride Test Track and Soarin. Daddy takes them on Test Track and he is measured before entering the line. The man says he is good to go. I walk around with Abby and with in 10 minutes Scott calls me. Surprised to already hear from him I answer and say "did he love it?' and Scott response was "they wouldn't let him on". Apparently they remeasure once you are about to get on the ride and that disney man said no. Scott is pretty upset. How dare them disappoint his little boy. I went back to the original man and asked what the deal was. He measured Dylan again and said there should not be a problem and proceeds to give me 12 fast passes for us to ride all day. So that the line at Soarin would get too long we went over there before trying TT again. No problems at Soarin. Dylan loves it. We take a little Nemo ride and decide to go try TT again. Now there is another lady at the front and she measures D and denies him! We are all for rules but seriously how can one say yes and the other say no. You could barley get your hand between the wood and D's head. Poor Dylan said "but the man said yes". So sad.
Eating lunch and we need to see what time the bus picks us up to get back for naps (Mickey's Christmas party is that night). Wonderful NO BUS til 3:30 and its only 11:00. No way can we stay all day. Scott cabs it back and I take the kids on the Mexico ride (this should be interesting). As we are leaving the Mexico building I see that Abby is missing a shoe. Really!! Seriously!! Me and 3 kids go back to the boats to see if they can find the shoe. After 13 boats roll around finally a shoe! Yea daddy is out front waiting on us.
Now I am a mom on a mission! We will not go back to the parks without Dylan getting on the rides. I venture out to Target and buy him some "timberline" like boots to give him a boost. Those Disney people will not say no to my little boy :). It worked!
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party was fun. Its nice to be there with not so many people. The cookies were delicious and the hot chocolate was perfect on this frigid evening. Nana and Papa were back at the condo with Abby. We rode almost all the rides, saw the firworks, and the parade. We stayed to see the last parade which was 10:00 and poor Colby was so exhausted that he fell asleep in Daddy's lap as we waited on Main St for the parade to come around. No worries he piped right up once all the music, snow and characters came around.
This is a definte party we will go back to!
