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!

New Ticker!!!

I realized this morning that I never updated our ticker when I added a day to our upcoming Disney World trip. I didn’t want to change it because poor little Minnie would have to start her journey to the end over…but I really wanted it to reflect the right date! So Minnie is back at the beginning, but she should move quickly!

And she isn’t lonely…there is a new ticker to reflect our very first cruise next year!!!! Eeeeek!!!!!!

Wreath for the Door

I love staying on property at Walt Disney World. I like using their transportation, and feeling totally immersed in Disney magic for our entire stay.

One down fall to staying on property- the resorts are HUGE! After a long day of fun when you come “home” it is easy to feel like all of the doors look the same. I like to add a little more magic to our room by decorating the window, and door.

I made this wreath for our door:

I made it with Disney paint samples! Since I have a Cricut I could have easily cut out the Mickey’s myself, but these are thicker than cardstock…so I think it will hold up a lot better.

The doors are magnetic, so I just attached random magnets you get from company’s advertising to the back! So this project was totally free!!! Minus the little bit of glue I used!
