I want to show you guys the deck out here It is so beautiful, and I love just being surrounded by nature Right here are the steps to actually come up and then take a look at this nice deck. Isn't it nice? Got a nice patio set with trees on them, and then you just got this beautiful like scenery It is absolutely amazing. Oh, I can hear the boats Here we are Look at this. I Love it in here, and I can't wait to actually decorate it for Christmas We're gonna hang up Christmas lights. Look at the high high ceilings up there This is three bedrooms.

Then we've got a washer and dryer right here. Oh Yeah, another bathroom. I think there's two bathrooms. So three bedrooms two bathrooms nice little kitchen area here The TV the living room look at all of the furniture. It is so nice I love it here, and then the main bedroom might be a little bit dark. Let's see if we can flip the light on There we go. I Love it. It is so amazing in here. Like I said, look how high those ceilings are and I love waking up and just looking out. Oh Wow, you can actually see one of the buses for Disney Springs right there not buses the boats. Yeah, can you see it actually going? I? Love it. Oh, look at little Mickey and then we've got the bathroom a very very nice bathroom This is this is nice Hello, of course with all staycations. We have to check out the fridge to make sure we got all the necessities Perfect some Bud Light and French vanilla creamer. I think that's all we need I'm gonna dive into the other rooms and show you a lot of other things that I like But now I want to go grab the Christmas stuff out of the car in the tree And we're gonna do some decorating. I can't wait to turn this all festive and holiday-ish and there we go There's all my Christmas stuff. We got the good old tree right here I've got some lights and I've got all of your Christmas cards and Ornaments that you guys have sent me so if you sent me a Christmas card or an ornament as long as I got it Before I checked in today I brought it along with me and we're gonna decorate the whole entire tree house with it So it's kind of like you guys are here with me, too And I did this last time at the Polynesian bungalow and I made sure to save everything So I'm so excited if you guys see something you sent me like an ornament or a card let me know in the comments and I think we have to put some Christmas music on Well, here it is another Christmas time and I must agree with my grandchildren. It's just about the neatest time of the year One of the nicest things about the holiday season is exchanging greetings with our many friends For these messages from all over the world represent the true spirit of Christmas in many different ways and once again we put together another Christmas show for you So let's turn back the calendar to the days when it all started During the Christmas holidays or any other season here at Disneyland Main Street USA is the happiest busiest Main Street in the world Everything ready for a big Christmas for everything but the weather Personally, I feel right at home in this snow that it's not so good for a parade And just like that. I think we are all done Tons of cards and lights. I really like what I did with the place It is really beautiful and thank you guys if any of you have sent me these cards or any ornaments on the tree I know I'm not great at responding back like through messages and mail Know that I really do care and I keep and cherish every single one of them and look at They're all here with me. I mean, there's a lot of cards here Like I haven't one the other side too, but we'll give a quick pan through so in case you guys see any of yours First let's take a look at the Christmas tree. I think I did a good job this year I mean it looks really well and there's a lot of great ornaments on it I think the lights mess with the camera a little bit so you might see like a blue tint in there See now it's right here, but I love it take a look at some of these look at this one right here Somebody made me that and it's so beautiful. We got lots of Dalmatians and graces on here. You know, I love my Gracie tree It's like 101 Dalmatian tree actually and there are so many great ornaments. Look at this one right here How cool is that? It's like I got my own 50. It's statue right there. I love it. Thank you again guys These are all so amazing and let me know in the comments if you see like your ornament on there You know, I mean it'd be nice to see a lot of it like acknowledge there. Look at this one. So beautiful Oh, I dropped the big one Have to put that back Now let's take a look at some of the cards we have here And I kind of put them down here and there and all along here I also bought two stockings one from me and one for Gracie girl and speaking of Gracie girl Look at this card right here. That is so awesome. Seriously. Some of these are just so amazing and I love it I love it so much. I tried putting some more on this side and then we got some more over here. I Love it. I even use the barstools too So I'm definitely trying to get as much as I could in there and then we'll come along and I kept it going See I put them on the backside so you can see them here Just so many amazing cards and it makes me so happy and then a couple over here I'm gonna have to move these though when I make coffee in the morning. Maybe I'll put this right here I like that. Oh, look at little down. He's a little greasy. So awesome Also, I do want to say a big. Thank you to Kirsten Jessica John and Fidgett for actually giving me this day They're the family that actually had a bunch of points left over that we're gonna expire December 31st like they actually expire and then they go like they just disappear Disney just gets rid of them And I think that's such a sad thing I feel bad for the families that lose all these these points and everything like that because they can't make it down due to the circumstances that were in and I feel like Disney should let you hang on to them, but You know, this is what was available and they booked it for me and asked if I would like to go stay and I was like Yeah, I would love to so I'm very honored that you guys thought of me and all of my Stacations that people have given me DVC points that were about to expire. I'm very honored I know that you know, they could just go to waste and nobody could actually stay there Or they could give them to maybe family members But if the you guys chose to actually give them to me, I feel like super special like very grateful and very special and Thank you so much Also, those are icicle lights up there But I couldn't really get them to like attach only because I didn't want to use any glue or tape or any Like nails or anything like that because this is in my house So everything is kind of just put there so it can be taken away and I want to destroy like I don't want to destroy Or damage any of this fine woodwork here. I mean it is very beautiful in here Now I'm all switched out into my Christmas sweater got a little comfy, but we have to figure out what we're gonna do for dinner I love that we got to just kind of hang out or lack here And I'm thinking maybe we can just grab a boat over to Disney Springs The boat dock is right outside my house like right outside my tree house Speaking of fine woodwork, would you guys consider that a hidden Mickey? I love it I think it's really cool and also all the lamps are actually wood too I'm gonna show you a couple of the other ones that are in the rooms. I just like the Furniture in here. It's like my favorite thing about staying here, but over in this side in this bunk bed room right here This is the stuff I really like Let's take a look at this lamp right here Isn't that so nifty? It's beautiful, isn't it? It's turning on. Oh, look at that And then the bunk bed itself is like all wood such a beautiful resort If you guys want to see like a full full tour I actually stayed here before and I'll put the link for that video in that's a little more in-depth look today It's just kind of about the holiday season decorating and getting all warm and cozy You know, that's what today is all about But now I shut all the lights off and like I said, we're gonna go explore the resort a little bit It got super dark out. I mean it's getting dark at night here, Florida actually earlier and earlier I think it's 6 30 now I mean it took a while to actually decorate and I was really comfy in there and stuff like that But now it's like dark dark out So let's go Mander down here. Look we can look into our tree house from here. There's the bunk beds I should have shut those lights off, but we're gonna come over here We also have a little barbecue grill where you can cook out and I've cooked out here in my last video And it was so much fun. I made some Italian sausages and I loved it and I think the Boat ramp is over here like right next to us. Oh, here comes a bus They also have bus transportation your own private bus transportation like this is like I think only for the tree house villas really and Saratoga Springs So takes you right to the parks or to Disney Springs Right here is the Disney Springs launch right there. Oh, I think we missed the boat There she goes Goodbye. Oh, it's all decorated over here, too. Look at that. It's got some garland and lights. I Think we just wait here The last time that I stayed here the boats weren't operating in fact most of these resorts weren't even open And I remember I came and I watched the sunset from this boat dock right here because it was just open and During that time it was like major shutdown time and everything was like a ghost town I remember just sitting out here and just being in awe. It was really amazing They're playing Christmas music out here, too Well, here comes a boat this one might be ours. I like how dark it is out there and it's kind of just creeping in I feel like we're going on a jungle cruise. It's kind of eerie out here. A little bit We made it to Disney Springs. Look at the boat house right there. I love seeing all the lights on the water Usually they have two boat docks open at Disney Springs, but for tonight they only have the marketplace So we're gonna try to find something to eat over on the marketplace side The other one's usually down by the hangar bar and I don't know I don't know many places that I actually usually eat over here and look how close you are to Saratoga Springs So if you wanted to actually walk from Disney Springs to Saratoga Springs at your room, it's literally right there. I Think I know where I want to go eat Earl of sandwich the world's greatest hot sandwich I've never actually eaten there. I don't think and it's been something I want to do for a while And it's over here on the marketplace side. Oh Look at this. Oh Wow take a look at that the carousel actually has Santa hats on all the horses That is so priceless Merry Christmas, I like your outfit super bright. Yeah, thank you. Whoa. I want to ride the carousel now As I was admiring the carousel and the horses with their Santa hats I realized I didn't bring a mask with me because you don't need a mask on the boat and I left my mask at the Treehouse, so I'm gonna have to figure out how to get a mask so I can get some food and ride the carousel There we go. Looks like they sell the mask for $1.49 at all the stores So I grabbed a mask right here at the pin trading store $1.49 There we go. I don't normally wear disposable masks But you got to do what you got to do only because I like having that fancy design on the front But these are definitely a little bit more breathable I mean plus you get that little strip right here where you can pinch down and you know stop your glasses from getting foggy To ride the carousel you actually have to get a token from this token machine It's $3 for one token $5 for two tokens and then one token per rider So yeah, we're gonna grab a token and we're gonna go for a little ride on the Disney Springs carousel And it actually has pictures of Pleasure Island on there and that's always my favorite But I've never seen them with the Santa hats on the horses, so I really like that There's all the tokens Look at that So I bought four tokens and then I gave away the other three tokens to the family behind me So I bought their ride on the carousel for them Let's see which horse we're gonna pick like we're gonna take This guy right here. Oh, yes. He looks very mighty. This one is like a rocking horse. No, I wonder if I can do that one Oh, I like it. I think I'm going on this one I like how he's kind of looking back at me and look at how cute the little Santa hats are. Oh, I should have wore mine I love how it's like kind of two rides in one because I feel like it reminds me of one of those rides that used to be Outside of like a supermarket because it just kind of rocks back and forth and then once the carousel starts It's gonna be even flutter and they're playing Christmas music as well Also, I'm pretty sure I see a hidden Mickey right there along with it looks like the Emperor's new groove I mean that's what it looks like doesn't it? I don't know But up here you can see these are all Disney Springs like old shops Right over there is a marketplace and some of it says Pleasure Island. So it makes it really really cool. I Didn't know there was a mirror right there, but you can kind of see me now Oh, I could feel yeah, I could feel that fire too, right you just feel the fire from here. Holy moly Oh, we're taking off now There we go, that's the one. Oh, wow, they're playing Angela's favorite song I don't know why but I just can't unsee Emperor's new groove I don't know what that is, but I just can't unsee it Seriously, that was such a great carousel ride. I really love it I love how would like the horses rock and then also just seeing all Disney Springs and the volcano going off That was a real like an awesome treat Now I think we're gonna hop over here to Earl of sandwich and get get ourselves a sandwich But look at the line. It's going out the door. Maybe this is why I've never eaten here before like I don't know How long this goes like is it just like you order and then you get it immediately? I guess we'll wait I mean, we've already kind of decided that we were gonna try the world's greatest hot sandwich Also, I wanted to talk about how long it takes for you to get with the from the boat to Disney Springs From the treehouse and only took about 10 minutes actually maybe like in between five and ten minutes I didn't actually like count the minutes, but that's pretty fast. You know what I mean? I bet she's probably faster than the boat. I mean the bus transportation Wow, I have never seen anything this busy before it gives me high hopes that it's actually really delicious like sandwich I mean it does advertise as the world's greatest sandwich, so it's got my interest so we're waiting it out Also each Disney dining plan includes one entree one side of dessert and one beverage I wonder if I can get that now or if that was only with like the Disney dining plan, but that's interesting That's that that like that's there right now As busy as they are in there. It actually went pretty fast and here it is My oralist sandwich. I got a French dip and I'm so excited comes with a little la jus a little French dip and We're gonna try it. We're gonna dive in I like the way that it's wrapped It's like wrap very nice, so quick break this off a little bit Oh Yeah, I'm gonna like this bread a lot look at that Oh, and then we've got the ah jus for the different I'm all about the ah jus and this bread looks perfect look how hot it is like the ah jus I could see the steam just pouring out of there, but let's get dip in here But yeah, look at those onions too first bite Okay, that is good I'm a fan. I'm a fan of Earl's sandwich now Wow the bread is what's the best part about it though the roast beef, and I like the thick cut onions too This is a good sandwich. I don't know if it's a world hot like great at hot sandwich, but this is a good French dip it also cost I think 899 and I wouldn't say this is even a six inch like sandwich or a hoagie I would say was probably like like five inches. Maybe it's not like a foot long a five dollar foot long You can see the Christmas lights in my ah jus. I don't want to disturb them, but every bite every bite gets a dip Let me know when the comments what you're go to like sandwiches here at Earl's sandwich I can't wait to try some different ones, but this French dip though It did good Now that we finished up our sandwiches over at Earl's sandwich We're gonna go see what the crowds are like at world of Disney It's only three more days till Christmas and wow it is busy down here at Disney Springs Very congestive got a bobbin weave bobbin weave But I want to go in here because I want to see if they have the castle spirit jersey for my sister I've been on the hunt for that castle spirit jersey for a while now every time I find out that it's here at Disney Springs I come down and it's gone within a day and it's actually gotten like put back out on the like shelves Like I think twice already, so we'll see if it's here chances are probably no they've got plenty of these spirit jerseys the Iridescent 50th anniversary ones, but these spirit jerseys are not the spirit jerseys we're looking for Well, no jersey today, and I think we're gonna get out of here because it is like I said very very busy in here Definitely got to be going in between the crowds here. Oh Boy, but there's a party happening on the water side stage Whoa, I think we're gonna start making our way back over to the tree house But first I want to walk through days of Christmas This is one of my favorite stores mainly because there's a bunch of Dalmatians actually inside as soon as you walk in the door Look at that Look at all those Dalmatians there. I wish I can bring Gracie in here to have a little photo session She'd love it. I'd have her sit right there next to the fireplace. I Love it. It's so cute though Trying to look at the faces and see if any of them look like her this one kind of does a little bit That one does a lot Let's see right here. I Could see it. Oh Yeah, definitely this one looks identical to Gracie could definitely see it in her face. Don't you think oh? Yeah, 100% Right next to the days of Christmas store They have the art of Disney and I want to show you something that I would love to have one day But probably is a little bit out of my price range. Oh the fire. Oh I can feel it Just like that little girl on the carousel. She's like I can feel I said I can feel it, too Right here is the art of Disney store like I was talking about and they have like I said pretty amazing pieces in here Take a look at this amazing piece right here. This is a letter from Walt Disney and it says dear mr. Hodgins, thank you very much for your letter of welcome I appreciate hearing from you and the other members of the National Cartoonist Society in the Orlando area Thanks to all of you for your thoughtfulness Sincerely Walt Disney. Isn't that so cool? Guess how much this is going for right now? $14,000 no annual past discounts allowed But I would love to get that just because it's a signed document from Walt Disney about Orlando technically and I think that's just so Amazing. They also have another one down here. That's for $14,000, too And this actually has a lot of amazing signatures on it Actually, I would want this one instead. Look at this Walter E. Disney They have a Royal Clark They have the Irvine Diane Miller. This is amazing right here Honestly, this is a really cool one. I think I would take this one instead for $14,000. Yep. That's the one This is something else that I really love and it's a poison apple figurine here and take a look at this $80 I love it and what I would love to do It's only $80 when they I would absolutely love to own the apple that's down at the Lakeland antique mall That was in snow white scary adventures and actually replace that apple with this that would be amazing But out of all of these amazing things including Walt Disney's autograph on two different documents You'd be shocked at what the most expensive item is in this store and I'm gonna show you it Right here in a second. I'm gonna give you a couple more seconds It's kind of in the general view here. So you can guess maybe what's the most expensive item. It's this Lion King picture right here You wouldn't be so shocked wait. I tell you how much this is. We'll get you a little scroll down here $35,000 dollars $35,000 for this I Mean it is gorgeous, but you can buy three Walt Disney autographs for that price I mean the frame alone is probably worth a couple thousand I feel like I mean this is really beautiful, but I think I would take Walt Disney's autograph Okay back to the boat though Looks like we got a boat right here right now. So we're gonna have to hurry up. I don't know which way we're going though this says Disney's Saratoga Springs and this one says Port Orleans and French Quarter District that we're going this way Yeah Saratoga Springs right here blue flag boat got to find the blue flag boat. I really do love the Christmas music on the boat So really it really makes me feel a little bit more happier. I also appreciate the Mickey light vest instructions Mickey knows the way safety first. Oh Looks like we're going under a bridge. This is really fancy Now we made it back to the tree houses and I was thinking about actually going around and maybe checking out the pool area But it's 50 degrees out. So I don't think we're gonna be going swimming anytime soon Especially in the cold weather. I don't know why I feel that way because like back in Pennsylvania I remember I used to go swimming in like 50s and 60 degree weather But for some reason the cold hits different in Florida I think it has to do with the humidity or just the air in general and Yeah, now I guess we're just gonna go back into the tree house, but look all the lights are lit up Isn't that kind of cute? They're on the lamp post You can see another one right there and right here is our tree house literally right next to the boat dock too So it's very very convenient. I Had to immediately plug in all the lights because they're just so pretty when I shut off all the lights and then see what it looks like what they just the Christmas lights on kind of make it nice and homey, you know, oh I love it so much. I love multi-color lights. They're just so beautiful and look at it. I love it. I Kind of want to keep my house decorated all year around I say that every year and I haven't even decorated my house yet I just kind of brought all this stuff here and I'm gonna just take it out of here and then start decorating my house The reason I haven't started decorating my own house is because I wanted to wait for my mom and sister They're coming down the first week of January So I was like, well, we're gonna celebrate Christmas when we get down there I thought about going home to see them like on Christmas day But it's driving 16 hours and if they're coming down like next week after Christmas I figured I would just wait and I got all their presents. I'm gonna wrap them I'm gonna set up the Christmas tree and we're just gonna celebrate Christmas in January I think that'll be fun. It'll be my mom's birthday, too So then it will be celebrating her birthday and Christmas and then we'll be celebrating my birthday because it was before Christmas And it'll just be fun. So I figured instead of, you know, decorating everything at the house I'd wait decorate here and then once I get it home. I'm gonna set it all up for when they come down Now I'm gonna try to figure out which room I'm gonna actually sleep in tonight Like I'm half-tentate to actually sleep in one of the bunk beds because I think it would be so fun I mean like seriously, I mean the mattresses probably aren't as comfortable though. Let's see what the bottom bunk's like here. Oh Yeah, they're not comfortable at all really. Oh I'm gonna nice little nightlight here. Oh I like that. I Am not too sure. I would like sleeping on the bunk bed like this mattress is like very very tight Well, it's for kids, you know, but I think it'd be fun. I don't know. I like the woodpost Something funny. I just realized about the bunk bed You can actually maybe order this exact bunk bed from the company because it's actually old hickory furniture company and Shelbyville Indianapolis and actually has a mad manufacturing date and a model number So I bet you you can actually just buy one of these if you ever wanted to I mean, it's a nice bunk bed Look at this. This is the ladder get up very sturdy, too. Oh, it's got a little squeak to it. Can you hear it? Who am I kidding? No, I'm probably just gonna stay in the master bedroom I mean the bed is huge and I love the ceilings and you kind of have that beautiful like Window display where you're not seeing anything but the woods this one on the other side You actually see like all the cars and stuff like this this the view from the master or from the main Bedroom is like just all nature And trust me when you wake up in the morning, you definitely want to have like a beautiful view It always puts you in a good mood. You know what I mean? You're laying down right here and the Sun starts coming in and it's just so miraculous Now I think I'm gonna actually just go to bed lay down Maybe watch some TV before I hit the sack and just enjoy Sitting out here with the Christmas tree and the Christmas lights. I don't know. I'm just very happy Makes me feel nice and cozy being here And I just love it and getting to see all these cards and all the ornaments and it just makes me feel so thankful and Grateful for all of you guys because honestly you guys set all this I remember there's a time in my life where I never even got a Christmas card I don't think anyone ever sent me a Christmas card now I get a Christmas card and like I really do cherish them I even have last year's Christmas cards still and I just kind of like I don't know Well, I do like to keep things around and stuff like that So I do hold things. Yeah, you know inanimate objects like very close to my you know heart and Yeah, I'm just so grateful, you know And with that, I think we are done here for the night time to go to bed I'm so excited to sleep in this comfy bed because it is a very nice bed and Yeah, I think that's gonna be doing it for us. I'm not gonna be able to do a morning vlog for tomorrow So we're probably just gonna call it a night here, but I'm so happy I'm so grateful to be here. It was so nice to decorate the room go around to Disney Springs Tri-url a sandwich I wish it was a little bit warmer out because I would have definitely went swimming It would have been nice. They have a nice very good quiet pool over on the Same area here in the loop of the tree houses And like I said, if you want to see like a full tour of all of the tree house amenities Then I'm gonna put the link from my video when I first stayed here in the description I basically spent the whole entire time just going here showing you all the cool rooms and all the different spots around the resort and of course a beautiful sunset sunset and Yeah, so once again, thank you to Kirsten, John, Jessica and Fidget for the points to stay here, and I hope you all have a merry Christmas and Hope you enjoyed the video. I enjoyed making it. We'll see you later. Good night
