Trip Report **COMPLETED** The 4 M's Go to Disney: a 4th of July Extravaganza

Hello everyone! We are back from the World so I figured I should start my Trip Report :)

Who?
My Mom (Mary) and I (Megan)

ANDDDD (you are not just stuck with the 2 of us)
My sister Elizabeth (we call her Betta) and my nephew Max

Where?
The Contemporary :) This was Betta and Max's first stay at the Contemporary - Max's first Deluxe stay :)

When?
July 4-7, 2019

Why?
We all have off on Fridays so with the 4th being on a Thursday it was a free 4 day weekend!

The title?
Max liked to say that the 4 M's were going to Disney: Max, Mommy (Betta obviously), Megan, Mary :hilarious: My Mom pointed out the 4 M's and he loved it!

T-1 Day July 3, 2019
After work we headed to meet Betta and Max at the hotel we were staying at across the street from the airport. My sister and Max live about an hour away from us so it is much easier for them to stay at a hotel before a trip - especially one where we have to get up pretty early.
We had an incident bringing our suitcases up to the room and my Mom accidentally tripped on this sign so we felt the need to document it :hilarious:

After we got Betta and Max settled into their room we headed to Cracker Barrel to get some dinner with my Dad before he dropped us off for the night.
We could see the airport from our room :)

July 4, 2019 Day 1
We slept decently well and woke up at 4 am - this particular hotel we stayed in was much better than the usual one we stay in across from the airport so that was nice.

My sister drove us over to the Airport so we did not have to take the hotel shuttle. She parked in a lot I was very unfamiliar with and we ended up having to take a shuttle from there to the airport which took more time than I anticipated. Naturally I was stressed out. This parking lot is cheaper which makes sense but I am spoiled by where we usually park when we are with my Dad :joyfull:
Thankfully check-in and security were fast and we made our way to grab some food for breakfast.

After the Peoplemover I marched us over to meet Stich. I don't know why but we never met him before so I guess I just wanted to get the Disney "check."
I had no idea until we were in line that no one else in my family saw Lilo and Stitch so I tried to explain it while we were in line.
One of us had to go to the bathroom...bet you can't guess who from the photos :hilarious:

Anyway...thankfully we did not have a bathroom emergency!
We picked up a FP for Winnie the Pooh so we headed there next

Then we did the teacups. Betta decided not to join us - she doesn't really like spin rides.

At least for us the old dessert was back!

We had a fantastic meal! My sister and Max loved it and we all said it was our favorite meal of the trip! My sister loved the cake so much she is actually making it for us tomorrow :)
After dinner we headed out and into ---pouring rain :rolleyes:
We were making these faces because it was raining and also we had to go home the next day :(

We were already wet so we ended up walking back to the Contemporary in the rain :confused:
Then sadly we had to pack up because we had a very early morning again the next day
We ended up watching fireworks from bed :hilarious:

But December is so far away!

As always, thanks for entertaining us with your great Trip Report!

Well - my Mom and I have several trips between now and then and so do Betta and Max - just not together :hilarious:

Max needs to work on his pout-y face - he clearly is outclassed by the three of you 😉 (though it is an(other) adorable picture of him)

LOL yea he really does!!!
