Laurie and I were at the Precious Moments event yesterday at the Paradise Pier Hotel. We had a pretty descent time. I was a little disappointed in the event but not enough to feel my money was wasted. The key to this event was the merchandise. I was able to get a hold of the latest line of Disney Precious Moments figurines signed by Precious Moments Creator Sam Butcher.
We showed up and we were pretty much the last people in line. Laurie has to use her wheelchair because of her surgery and all of the disabled spaces were taken. We had to park on the second floor of the parking structure and lo and behold there is no elevator.
We then got in the ticket line and received our packets and picked up our merchandise. I dropped off my merchandise in the car.
We got back in the meet and greet line and were greeted by the Disney hostesses. They were very friendly letting us know what was up.
Once we got to meet Sam Butcher, we got our photos taken very quickly. The lady before us had a flat Sammy. We received our photos and we went right to breakfast. The best part of this event was that the seats were reserved. We found our table and immediately got Laurie's picture with Princess Aurora.
We had breakfast which was quiche, not Laurie's favorite. Sam's assistant said a few words and we were done. The event was scheduled to be 2 hours, and wound up being 1 hour.
As I was loading up the wheelchair in the car, Sam's assistant walked by and thanked us for coming to the event. Some of those items will soon be up on our ebay site. You can see it there soon - http://stores.ebay.com/The-Humble-Folks-Themepark-Shopper_W0QQsspagenameZMEQ3aFQ3aSTQQtZkm
