The 13 minute thing is done at times there's little to no wait. At other attractions it will say 10 minutes... I've seen the 13 thing done at ToT and the HM. A little touch I've always liked.

I think Kevin and Lori should take a parenting class. Audrey is the same age as my youngest DD and she would never think about putting her feet up on the table or putting a whole butter ball in her mouth. I think it is all in how you were raised and also how you want your child to be raised. IMHO, you can spoil kids to a degree, but you also have to give them boundaries. I think you also have to choose your battles but you also have to have consistency in how you choose them. My DD's know if they want dessert when we are eating out they have to eat their veggies/fruit. Now, they don't have to eat all of it but they do have to eat a fair amount. I try to have them eat those first and the main part of the meal last. That way I know they got a good mix of healthy food. You can be friends with your kids but you also have to be the boss! Now that I got sidetracked.
Great TR!!! Started to read your new one and it sounds like you guys got the vacation you had hoped for last time!!!

You know it's bad when Andy & Melissa have finally had enough! These are two of the easiest going people you'll ever meet. They're southern after all!!!

I know I'm posting at the very end of it all, but you know I ya!
you had to deal with Lori & her "migraines". I wonder what kind of med she takes that they didn't even want to give her a dose at the Urgent Care center?!? Things that make you go Hmmm..... Audrey seems like a doll, loved her "cheese" shots! Well, Melissa we've both had our "Won't this be wonderful to take our friends to WDW trip" that ended up being not so wonderful, I say we just stick to going with our fellow passporter buds instead!! Oh and T&K ofcourse, for some good beer drinking & bathroom tours! Love ya girl! Now I'm off to your....err....Andy's TR.

My DS, David loves butter:


But if he mis-behaved in a restaurant, he would get restrictions and possibly a 'talking to' by mom's or dad's hand!

Thanks for finishing this up, sorry the trip had to end up like that. I love the shot of Andy and Lori - bad memories, but a great picture, like you said, to sum it all up. It will be interesting to hear about their next trip to WDW. I'm sure Kevin will call you a few times each day to brag about everything that's going on. Please be sure to share with us!

Melissa, I'm no talent agent, but if I were I'd could cast Lori as Lady Tramaine. That look says it all. Sorry Andy, I don't think the glass slipper would fit you, we'll have to let Audrey be Cinderella. With your alls computer skills I wish you could find a way to make Lori's eyes glow.
