Friday Sept 21st 2012.. Magic Kingdom Fast Pass + test day!
So this was originally not going to be a MK day,,could have been any park.but we got picked to test FP+ so it became a MK day!
We had 10:30 ADR's for 1900 Park Fare.. we were all excited! We slept in, moved slowly as we were not in a rush.
We headed to the bus stop..mission MK bus!
We got to MK and hopped the Monorail for the GF. We arrived ,checked in and before we could even walk to get our picture taken the buzzer went off..lol
we got our picture done...aren't my oldest and youngest fashion plates?
The food was wonderful.. the waitress was great..
Sadly it took forever to see anyone.. Tigger and Pooh came relatively quickly:
we were done eating and most of our plates cleared before we saw anyone else..
Noah had left by this point...I have no recollection of what he did...he may have gone to MK,..or to the resort..no clue...I'm terrible I know!
Mary Poppins arrived and she def made up for us waiting so long.
Taejan loved her..she was so chatty and personable!
She sat with us..she was in no rush..this is why I wasn't upset we waited so long! She chatted with the kids for a long time!
Sadly the blonde that came next didn't hold a candle to Mary..she was cute but def wasn't as into it as Mary!
We exited the GF and were told the monorail was down...awesome..

MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE! 
u got it!MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE!
So after being told the monorail was down but we could go get a bus or take the boat silly me decides..boat.we walked that way...
So here's my little piece of advice..listen and remember.. when going to breakfast and if you REALLY like the juice..don't take the boat..never take the boat. It's a very long ride and there is no bathroom..lol..
So we got to MK..and once thru the turnstiles we split up.. Eric took Declan and Taejan to do a mission and us girls proceeded down Main St. Now Ziah was in a bad mood because Declan didn't want her with them...I told Declan he didn't get to decide that, but ZIah didn't want him mad at her so she stayed with us. I tried to cheer her up with some mommy/daughter pictures..that didn't work too well @@:
the photographer wanted to do some magic shots with just Ziah but she would have none of that so here I am again! and oh look..the angle makes my head look huge...awesome!
Ziah wanted to ride the People Mover so off we went..happens to be one of my favorite rides..
Up next Ziah picked Buzz..
I love these ride pictures @@
maxed it out again: really wish the score wouldnt blink..really hard to get a picture...lol
At this point we met up with the boys and...

We were inching closer to time to use our FP+ but we still had a little more time so we headed over to get some ice cream!
This is a cute little CS place... we got to stay out of the sun while eating and there is a door CM's go in and out of so the kids interacted with a few more people..lol
We headed on over to Peter Pan because it was time to use these:
I can not wait to come back when this is open!
Oh someone has stickers..off mine go to get some!
and now it was PP+ time!
Ok this was super easy..tap card up to the Mickey Head..watch em light up green.. same thing again at the end of the load line. The CM watching the entry line had an ipad and all our info popped up on that..names, etc..
so that first "test" was done.. nothing to it.I re-collected all the cards until it was time for the next ride.
Next up was The Barnstormer. This was down last year so I was excited to have the kids experience it.. Taejan was NOT happy..I mean not at all happy about it. I knew he could handle it and yes..I am one of those moms..now I don't drag screaming kids on rides..I would NEVER do that to my children. But I do know them and I know what they will like and dislike and I knew he would love this!
Not at all happy with me. I told him if he truely hated it he never ever had to ride again...
Other 4 loving it!
Oh look..we are riding it again ( sans my mother) and all the kids are happy..hum...mama was right! Taejan insisted on riding with me again though....lol...no picture..but he was there and he loved it and wanted to go a 3rd time..mama said not this time buddy!
We went over and let the kids play in the splash pad area..the loved it.. well Declan didn't play.something about being almost 11 and that stuff is for kids not a "man"... ( oh have I forgotten to mention this? Well since Disney declares Declan to be an adult now he was calling himself a "maannn" all trip..now u must say maaann all deep to get it right!)
Next on the agenda was The tea cups..neither Eric nor I can handle that ride so it was all my mom. On the way we saw Tigger have a grand time running thru that part of the park..too funny!
Teacup time..Declan opted to not go on..wuss..um well wait..I opted to not to..so good call Declan
after the tea cups it was time to divide and conquer yet again...

Oh you dunno what these two put me through at Disney. This year they have a contest planned ... "who can get Mom to cry the most??!?!" Gotta hand it to them, they sure are brave, its always dangerous to tick off the cook and CEO of the operation. Paybacks are a *bear* LMAO

I think these two pictures speak words about today's population. Look at all the kids staring and waving as Tigger bounced by and the adults who barely even noticed. Me... I'd be chasing him, bouncing behind him, laughing my rear end off... and I'm 35.On the way we saw Tigger have a grand time running thru that part of the park..too funny!
LMAO.. yeah my kids would def not fair well in the end of that game either..LOL

Right! He was having a blast..it was hysterical!
So after the Tea Cups ZIah wanted to ride Space Mountain..I hate this coaster..so Eric took her and The rest of us headed towards..you guessed it..the People Mover..LOL.. we happened upon Chip and Dale and no line to speak of. Taejan was so happy and my oh my were Chip and Dale in great form.. they picked on my kids and had so much fun with them! Sorry for the picture overload..but..well deal!
After that we rode The People Mover and Buzz then met back up with Eric and Ziah...she loved Space.. crazy child! We headed over to Carousel of Progress..love this... won't lie wish they'd update it but then again I love that it's not!
By now we were starving.. breakfast is not our meal so having breakfast ADR's is really about the characters not the food..lol.. we went an visited this guy:
Up next.. another run thru on Buzz..this time with our FP+ cards..
Declan and my mom..she'd prolly kill me if she knew I posted these pictures on here..so shhh don't tell her ok?
Eric and Ziah:
Taejan and I..I'm shooting his gun because I had already maxed out the score.. notice the look on his face..right then and there I am EVERYTHING and he is amazed by me..oh yeah!
After Buzz we did The Laugh Floor..so cheesy..so fun..I so wanna be on screen..instead my mother was.. she "doesnt even know where she is"..LMAO too funny!
Next we headed across the park..

Next we headed across the park..
So we were heading off to the other side of the park..I noticed all the wrist band spots and the slowly changing costuming and more and more guests in costumes. We originally hadnt planned to be here on a party night..but oh well.
We got some more pictures:
We road Pirates then headed over for this:
We road Haunted Mansion again.. we got stopped for a few in the dinning room and the kid in the buggy next to me was unreal obnoxious.. then we moved 10 feet and stopped again..and the kid was still unreal..sometimes I wish people would at least TRY and control their kids.. I mean I have one that is a but much but no way would he be allowed to be screaming and yelling ( not scared..just nonsense and such.) during a ride! we finally got moving and stayed moving!
We came out and it was very close to party time:
It was also starting to rain.. I was feeling bad for the party goers.. and praying our party in a few days would be drier!!
We headed back to the resort where I can only assume it was arcade for the kids, pool for the kids, adult beverage for mom and dad then bed!
and thus ends park day 5, vacation day 9 and we still haven't bought ponchos!
