 with money years on her car. Okay, do you want to see? And she is, she almost ran me off the highway. Hi guys, welcome to Valerie's 65th birthday vlog. So exciting. So I will tell you guys the plans, but I think it's more appropriate if she tells you the plans for her weekend. Well, we start off by staying at the cabins in the Disney, I don't even know what they call that. Cabground? It's a cabground, right? I mean, it's not, I mean, it's not Fort Wilderness, it's the, where is it Fort Wilderness? I don't know, but anyway, it's the cabground, sort of. But it's not really the cabground. It's glamorous camping. Cabins, we have cabins. Cabins, it's not really camping. They're beautiful cabins. They're absolutely stunning cabins. So it's not just, you know, some kind of rustic cabin. It's a beautifully appointed cabin. And we are going to stay there for two nights and they have a grill. And of course, you know how I am about grilling, but this one is a charcoal grill. And I'm used to, as you all know, the propane grills. So I'm going to be cooking with the, with the charcoal grill this evening. Then after that, we're going to get in the golf cart because we're renting a golf cart. Guys, I've never driven a golf cart. This will be my first time driving a golf cart. Okay, back to spotlight on Valerie. Yes. And so Alex is going to drive the golf cart. And after dinner, we're going to get in the golf cart and we're going to drive to this bar. Man, this car is close to me. We're going to drive to this little bar that they have in that area. And have a drink, have a birthday drink, a pre-birthday drink. And then tomorrow morning, we're going to get up and I'm going to fix a big, traditional country breakfast in the cabin. And then we're going to go horseback riding at two o'clock. And then we're going to come back, get cleaned up, change clothes. And then we're going to go to dinner over at the Boat House at Disney Springs. What you all know is one of our favorite places to go. That's, camera seems awfully close to me. It's a wide angle lens. So it's not as close as you think. Okay, well anyway. So we are going then to go to the Boat House. And after the Boat House, I have made a special request to have a drink at the Rainforest Cafe Bar at Disney Springs. Because I've always said how cute that was and I've never had a chance to ever go there. It's right on the water. Everything of course is open air because we still are not eating inside restaurants and we're still wearing our masks. And so everything's kind of, everything should be, at least is planned to be safe. We'll hope that it is safe. Then on Tuesday morning, we're going to go and have brunch at that place we go to. I don't even know what the name of it is. Tutorial Alfredo. Okay, there you go. Or a porno. Anyway, that's over at Boardwalk. Yeah. So that's what we're going to do. We're all looking forward to horseback riding. Yeah, I haven't been horseback riding in forever. We did horseback riding at Disney once before for my birthday. That was when I was in my horse girl phase. I think every girl goes through that. How old were you? I don't know. It was... You were in grade school because of the people. It's definitely like fourth grade, maybe? Maybe. I think that sounds fourth or fifth. Yeah. So that's exciting. So we're going to do a bunch of different stuff that we don't normally do. It's a whole different experience, isn't it, Alex? Yep. Made it to the ever famous public. So we're getting our golf cart now. I'm excited to drive it. Here we are. Not like a normal car. All right. Okay, thank you. You need to take me to my car. I know, I know, I know. I'm stopping. I guess. Okay, so this is the cabin we're staying in and it's so crazy that we're staying in 22, 22 because that is Valerie's birthday. So I think that's kind of fun. We have our grill here. I did one of these room tours last year. Last year? I don't know, but I just want to show you guys a little overview of what everything looks like. So just our little outside table coming in. That door is a little crazy. So here's our living room area. We have like the little Disney welcome. We have a table here. We have a mini kitchen. This is where Valerie's going to be cooking some of the meals. We have a fully functional refrigerator which is really convenient just to store stuff and everything. And there's the birthday girl. She's taking photos for Facebook here. That's right. Moving into the bathroom. This is what the bathroom looks like. Pretty small, but it has everything you need. Then we have the toilet here. That was Valerie's keys. The shower here. All nice and clean. This is kind of like what it looks like. That's the front door. And moving on into the bedroom. We have some twin bunks here. Then we have the queen size or full size bed here. And then we have the little closet area. Here, Alex, turn around. And this is just, I don't know, a little place. This is probably where I'm gonna do my makeup. This is kind of cute. I mean, even though it's kind of far away, I don't know if I'm gonna be doing my makeup here or not. But it's a little nook area. I don't know. I might sleep on the sleeper sofa or I might sleep in a bunk. Okay. Just depends. The TV will be on. No one will not be doing that. So that's pretty much what this little area place looks like. I'm so excited to be staying here again. This is definitely my version of camping. I wouldn't do it any other way. This is as far as it's gonna go, pretty much ever. So PSA for all my viewers out there. Oh no, Valerie's taking photos. All right, Valerie, show us what we have here. Well, we're getting the fire started here. How to cook the hot dogs. And I'm gonna have somebody take my picture. Sherry is home. Hello, hello. Yeah, somebody take my picture that's skilled at picture taking. All right, the wieners are almost ready to come off. They look beautiful there. So I brought a plate out. So when they're ready, we just plate them. Sorry, I didn't get a lot of footage out here. It's just super, super dark. Valerie has to use a flashlight to like see the food and stuff. So I'll show you guys more and everything when we get inside. Sherry's got her hands on the buns over there. Valerie is cutting my corn. But here's the food. I'm gonna get a bun probably a little later, but we have chips and Valerie's onion dip here. Then we have some green beans. We have hot dogs. You butter? Yes, I put a butter out. Yeah, put the butter go. It's right here. And Valerie is finishing up the corn over there. I am just ready to dig in. So I just want to show you guys what the food looks like. Full Sherry. I'm very full. I know, so good. I was telling Valerie, sorry the TV's kind of loud, but I was telling Valerie, I haven't eaten that much since Thanksgiving. I don't think, oh my goodness. Right now we are going to head to a little bar that they have somewhere on the campsite. What's it called, Sherry? I'm the Croquettes Tavern. Yes, it's next to the trails and restaurants. Hey, Valerie's birthday fun. Stupid drive golf cart. Okay. Okay. Okay, you can barely see me, but Valerie's over here driving. Okay, hey. Yeah. I'm having some fun now. We're having some fun with the golf cart because... It's like pitch black. I know. I can't see where we're going, so I'm stuck here like all girls. Okay. It's like riding a bicycle go for two only. Now I'm facing the opposite direction. It's true. How I hate that. I know. Okay, so I was telling them that it's really difficult. They'll fall off. I'm not. I'm holding on. No, no, no, no, no. Okay, so I was telling them when I was driving this that it was very difficult because there's like turn signals and I'm a very avid user of the turn signal because that's the correct way to drive and we get to a stop sign and Valerie goes... Where's the turn signal? I don't know. We're on the hottest ahead. Guys, we can't make this stuff up. That is interesting. I don't... Oh, okay. I'll let you know if we get to where we're going. This is our cart because we didn't put the magnet on the back. Valerie, anyway, we found out where we're supposed to go finally. Valerie thought it was a souvenir. Well, it is a souvenir, but I think you're supposed to put it on here. All right, Valerie. What did you get? She got a Long Island ice tea. I got a Long Island ice tea. And Sherry and I both got Merlot's. It's kind of chilly. It's not too bad, but it's still a little chill. We are catching a glimpse of the electric light parade. We just heard the music and announcement come on, so we just started walking over here to see it. Tell them what happened. Well, our golf cart was missing. Oh, man. We got it kind of stolen. Have we had eight or nine drinks or even two or three drinks? But we only had one. We only had one. Our golf cart was missing. Apparently this happens a lot, so it's not uncommon that someone might accidentally take a golf cart. That's why people decorate them. It fits more than one golf cart. Yeah, the key is... So we just jump in and take a golf cart. Yeah, so the key is like work on multiple different like golf carts sometimes. We'll just sit here sadly on the porch. So they're gonna bring us another golf cart, but that is so funny. That is hilarious. And we took pictures like you guys saw the clip and we're like, oh, this is our golf cart. Make sure you know. Well, I thought that was down too far. Yeah. But there weren't that many choices, you know? Yeah. There were like two golf carts left in the parking lot. I know. Because we were partying hard. We went down to watch the light show. Oh, I know. All right guys, new number, new golf cart. Just a really random comment. It is so weird. I'm doing the dishes on a vacation and there's like a dishwasher. I think that is the most strange thing ever. Just wanted to point that out. It's so different for me. But anyway, I love the sink. Very, very cool. Good morning guys. Welcome to day two of Valerie's birthday weekend. Valerie's cooking breakfast. The birthday girl does not want to be on camera in her jammies. So I'm just gonna show you guys the food. Sorry, the TV again is kind of loud, but it's okay. But anyway, I just wanted to open up this little segment of the video and show you guys the breakfast that Valerie has made. This is what is on the menu today. We have some scrambled eggs. We have, yeah, I don't really know why we had jelly and... No, jelly's for the toast. Oh, and I'm taking it, the ketchup is for the potatoes? Yes. Oh, that's weird. Anyway, not everybody thinks that's weird. I know. And then we have some bacon here. Obviously crispy, cause that's how we like it. As you guys know, breakfast is not my favorite meal but this does look really good. And it's, you know, breakfast like this is good, you know, every six years for me. I just feel the grease in my arteries, even though I do already have high cholesterol, so. Anyway, I'm gonna jump in and enjoy. And this is Valerie's meal and Cherries. It's a lot prettier and aesthetic than mine but I just wanted to include it. I'll be in the food because it'll have a splash of purple color with the great jelly. Okay guys, so this is what I'm wearing for horseback riding. It's just my Align tank with black leggings, just keeping it casual. I just drag shampooed the hair, so hopefully it looks pretty good. We are on our way out and the rest of the footage is gonna be on my phone. I don't know how much footage I'm gonna get of the actual like horses cause apparently you can't take literally anything with you, which is really sad but I'll see what I get and everything but for this like a middle portion is gonna be on my phone just cause this is kind of a giant. That's okay. I also forgot makeup remover wipes so we're gonna look at the outpost. It's a store for that and see, hopefully they probably do. But anyway, we're gonna look for that and then at Disney Springs tonight, I'll probably bring this camera cause like it'll just be like normal Disney Springs stuff and we won't be like on the go. But anyway, let's go see what the day brings. Cherie, this is the metal post, right? We're gonna stop in here, the meadow trading post. I think it's like a little gift shop area. So hopefully they have some cool stuff. This is fun, just a normal like Disney gift shop but with some fun, like different things. Ooh, blankets. We made it to the stables with little horsies. I don't know if you can see them. There they are. We're just gonna find out like where we need to check in. So when we went to the trading post or like the meadows outpost, they didn't have face cleansing wipes. So it's okay. I'm probably just gonna end up using like soap and water but that's what I used to use for dance. So it's all good, whatever. But I am kind of surprised that they don't sell makeup remover wipes there, like the basic Neutrogena ones, you know? So we are trying to find where to go. It's been a while since we've done this. Okay, there's the horses. We're at our table, we're on table number two and we're just waiting to ride. Okay, so I don't know how much video footage I'm gonna get because we're not allowed to like take our phones and stuff because if it like falls or whatever, it might get broken because of the horse steps on it. Like there's no getting it back but I will include some pictures. So if I have pictures, obviously I will put them on the screen for you guys but other than that, we are so excited. It's been forever since we've ridden to ride. We've ridden to ride, we've ridden to horse. It has been a long time since we've ridden to ride too, right? Well, we rode that too in September. That's true, that's true. But yeah, the horse got riding on, but not. We did like two years in a row and we haven't done it since then. Yep. All right, so Sherry has her helmet on, Valerie has her helmet on, and I have my helmet on, so we're getting ready to go. Okay, so that's right. Valerie's the one taking one for the team and bringing her phone in her pocket. It's so cool that you bought a book. Yeah, I just told Valerie I bought a book. I'm proud of you buying books. Thank you. So I bought a book, my friend Anna. I wanna have my hair. It's just a little helmet head-ish, but it's not bad. Here, here, here, there's a mirror. Can kind of see. Oh, that's not too bad. No, it's not bad at all. That's not too bad. So did you have fun on the horseback ride? I had a blast. I had a ball and I was able to get on and off without any problems. Okay, tell them your horse's name. My horse's name was Bart. Okay, we'll put a picture right here. We only got one picture because it was just a little difficult, but we got Valerie the birthday girl's picture on her horse, so I'll insert that. I really wanted Roy Rogers to be along the trail singing to me, and so I was disappointed that Roy Rogers wasn't there. Yeah. So I don't know, for your viewers that don't know who Roy Rogers is, Google him. Dale Evans' husband. Okay, my horse's name was Sherman. He was so cute. He loved to eat, let's just say that, but who doesn't want to eat? Like I would probably want to eat too, but I would have to be like, no Sherman, like no eating on the trail, but he kept like good distance and everything. Sherry, tell us about your ride. My horse was great. I had a great ride. Hers was beautiful. Until oh, about 15 minutes left in the ride. Fourth. And I have a little problem with a spot in my thigh that hurts on occasion. That has not hurt me in a very long time, and it numbed my leg, and I could not get off the horse. It was interesting. So I had to have helpers to help me get off the horse. And you know, after only one or two screams, scaring the little children around me, I was able to successfully get off the horse. But overall, it was a really, really good ride. Okay, so we've come back to this little area with the restaurant and the playground. It's like daytime now, but we're going to check out settlement, trading posts, just to see what they have. Right, Belly? All right, I'll take a little picture to you. I made it in. It's like another version of a little gift shop here, and they have cute little plants and stuff. The cups are really cute. The little mugs, super cute. All right, guys, we are getting ready for dinner. I just want to show you my outfit. Look how cute. So I'm wearing this just black shirt with a tie here. You can't really see the tie. But then I'm wearing my jeans with my white tennis shoes. And guys, this area is not good to do makeup in because there's not good lighting. And my parents were like using the bathroom to get ready. So it was actually really difficult, but it came out really, really well. Like I don't know if you guys can tell, but I took a, yeah, here we go. So the makeup turned out a lot better than I expected considering the circumstances. So anyway, looks good. I took like one good selfie and I'm like, I haven't taken a selfie in like forever. So it was kind of cool. Sherry's outfit. She's still recovering from her leg issue. First back riding. So, gray sweater. Gray sweater thing, red turtleneck, black jeans. Cute. I'll take my red jacket. Yep. Valerie's looking better than ever. Yes. Her Disney shirt and jeans. Gray jeans. Gray jeans. Made it to Disney Springs and I think we're gonna head to the boat house now. All right, Valerie, tell us where we're at. We're at the boat house and we're at one of my favorite restaurants. We have Disney. We got our bread rolls ready to eat. All right, so I got a cosmopolitan because they're really good here. I normally get wine just because I really like wine, but these here are just really good. Okay, so we got our lobster vests. We all got bowls just because we're really hungry. We haven't eaten since breakfast because we had such a big breakfast and Valerie just updated her profile pictures and we're just gonna dig in. Okay guys, so I got plain butter pasta with some shrimp because it's so good. They always make it really good here. So I just asked if they could do that and they're like cool with it. Valerie got cedar plank salmon over there. Looking amazing. And then what'd you get, Sherry? Salmon. You got salmon too? I'm sorry, no, I got salmon too. I'm sorry, no, I got salmon too. I got salmon too. I'm sorry, no, I got salmon too. I got salmon too. I got salmon too. I got salmon too. I got salmon too. I got salmon too. Okay, it's already digging in. Happy 38th birthday. Thank you, aww. We're pretty much done with our meal but I got a glass of wine to go because I don't think we're gonna go to the bar that Valerie wanted to go to because it's closed and number two, like we're just tired and stuff so we're gonna go back to the room. So yeah, just wanted to update you guys before like we end up probably back at the cabin. Okay, so I got my wine to go. Look, I already made a mess. So embarrassing. It was like our appetizer and I was like making a mess. What? I said don't cry because you're gonna lose. I know, but I got my wine in to go glass because we're, we've already paid and stuff so just gonna sip on this probably when we head out and everything. Okay, did everyone have fun tonight? We had a great time. Yeah, Sherry's not there. We had a great time. Let's do that again. We had a great time. Yeah. We're gonna head back and I did get the makeup wipes eventually. I got the rose flavor because I don't know, I just wanted to try something new and we just stopped by Sephora to get these before we headed out because it was like really close to the lime garage and stuff. So anyway, I think I'm going to end the video here. I hope you guys enjoyed it. Make sure to wish Valerie a happy birthday in the comments. That's right. Happy birthday to me. Don't forget to subscribe and I'll see you guys in my next video which stay tuned because we are going to to Tatoria, okay, all four now and we've been there a few other times but we're gonna continue on the birthday celebration just for tomorrow morning and then do cake and everything so that'll be in the next video. Give this video a thumbs up and I will see you guys in the next video. Bye. Bye.
