Meal Invitations and More Decorations

I love adding a little extra magic to our trips.

This year I decided to make invitations for the girls to all of meals, and special events. I had some help from a very creative member of the DISboards, and I am so happy with how they came out!

(I took pictures of each one so I will always remember them! LOL)

(Chef Mickey’s            Ohana Breakfast)

The invitations are now in envelopes, and I will put them out for the girls to find after they have gone to sleep. I used the “Waltograph” font to print the envelopes because Sami is getting too smart for me. If I had hand written them she would of known I made them not her favorite characters.

(Garden Grill)

(Liberty Tree Tavern and Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party)

(50’s Prime Time Café     1900 Park Fare Dinner)

(Crystal Palace)

(Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique        Cinderella’s Royal Table)

These Mickey bubble’s will go on our door…or maybe in our window. I love Matt’s…it turned out so cute!

Crazy and over the top? Perhaps! But that’s what happens when you have a whole year to plan! Hahahahaha!

Disney Family Movie Night- 101 Dalmatians

101 Dalmatians is one of our favorite movies! We had a simple movie night since it is a school night.

We started off with dinner…

On the menu:

-Dog Food (aka sloppy joe in a bowl)

-Dog Bones (aka biscuits shaped like bones)

-Water bowls

Sami tried to eat like a dog, but that was only fun for 2.3 seconds! Then we put our sloppy joe’s on the biscuits! Ha! They were pretty yummy that way!

Our next activity was making Kanine Krunchies (aka Chex Puppy Chow) for dessert. Sami loves to help in the kitchen!

After we cleaned up our cooking mess the girls decorated dog pictures with bingo dotters.

Sami’s puppy….

I asked Skylar to show me her puppy…this is what she showed me at first…

Oops! Ha…here we go….

Up next….Mary Poppins

Disney Family Movie Night- Kim Possible

Here’s the sitch: Kim Possible is a TV series that was on the Disney channel. It no longer airs, however, at Epcot there is a fun electronic scavenger hunt based on the show. We tried to get Sami to do it last year, but she wasn’t sure what it was and she wasn’t interested. After our movie night she is totally into it, and can’t wait to be a secret agent for the day! To learn more about this fun activity go here.
For those who don’t know Kim Possible is a cheerleader by day-and a crime fighter by night!
We started off the afternoon with a mission…

Sami’s first mission (if she chose to accept it) sent her into the laser room to retrieve her next clue….

(Streamers across the dining room)

 She bobbed and weaved and avoided the lasers, and found her next clue….
She had to use the “Kimunicator” to crack the code to see where she should go next!


She was sent to work on cheer jumps on the trampoline, and she stopped on the way outside to put on her KV cheer uniform. Ha!

After some pikes and toe touches she got her next clue. She was to go to Ron Stoppable’s favorite eatery (he is Kim’s sidekick) Buenos Nachos for snacks and a movie!Luckily our library system had two Kim Possible dvds! (Sami said she wished there had been more missions because she was having so much fun. I had planned on Skylar being with us for the missions, and didn’t think she would like it to be super long. Go figure-she slept through the whole thing! Ha!)
Our snacks:
-Buenos Nachos
-Rufus mole rat dogs (mini corndogs)
-Kim’s megaphone cupcakes
-Dr. Drakken’s evil punch



Up next…101 Dalmatians

Disney Family Movie Night- Toy Story

With summer gone, and only FOUR weeks until Disney World I decided we needed to do a few more movie nights before our trip!

Tonight’s movie….Toy Story!!!

I “decorated” the table while Skylar was napping, and Sami was at school.

(Potato Head, Chatter Phone, Blocks, Barrel of Monkeys, and Play-Doh)

The girls started off the fun with the Play-Doh. Skylar isn’t too sure about Play-Doh yet, but she did squish it and flatten it a bit.

Sami made a “Rex”, and I also sat down and enjoyed the fun!

Then they played Barrel of Monkeys….

We had a “Claw” game…a basket of toys with tongs as the claw. They both thought this was really fun! Ha!

Then there was some Potato Head fun….

We also played “Buzz Lightyear’s Rings of Saturn Ring Toss”. A hula hoop on the ground and frisbees as rings.

We also played “Toy Story Mania” on Wii…which is very similar to the ride at Disney’s Hollywood Studios!

On the menu tonight:

-Hamm’s Bacon and Eggs (Sami had hard boiled-Sky and I had scrambled)

-Mr. Potato Head’s Hashbrown Casserole

-Buzz’s Flying Saucer Flapjacks

-Woody’s Rootin Tootin Oranges and OJ

Why I chose this movie:

There are a lot of fun Toy Story themed things to do at Disney World! Last year we stayed at All Star Movies in the Toy Story section…

There are two fun rides- “Buzzlightyear’s Space Ranger Spin” is at Magic Kingdom and “Toy Story Midway Mania” is at Hollywood Studios. And of course it is always fun to meet your favorite characters!

The girls (and I) had a lot of fun tonight! Sami said it would have been more fun if Daddy had been home…and I totally agree!

Up next…..Kim Possible night!
