Oliver can’t understand why yall aren’t alarmed that monsters keep coming to the table. He just wants his cornbread 😂
you know they aren't monsters right?
@@verawilliams1208to Oliver they might be
We make our own monsters
The real star of this video is Oliver- he worked through his emotions with the outstanding unconditional love and support of dad, mom and most of all Jackson. The characters did a great job reading situation and taking the clues from you all. Magical - just magical.
Oliver’s progress with the characters was so precious!
Watching Oliver get over his fear (somewhat) of characters in real-time was so heartwarming! He could tell when big brother Jackson is excited, that he was safe and could be excited too! ❤
Chip will always have a special place in Oliver's heart ❤️
Chip was so kind with Oliver ! Loved how Jackson just embrace’s all the characters!
Jackson made me lol with his demonstration of how slow a tree grows 😂😂
Oliver needs a stuffed Chip to mark the moment. ❤️ 🐿️
Tim was cracking me up with all his ride quotes! And i didnt see the hidden mickey either 😅. Oliver was so precious to watch with chip when he was brave enough ❤
Oliver melted my heart! A big step for such a little guy! Such a fun vlog! So much more fun with kids! Hugs to all!
Oliver is really starting to look like his big brother Jackson. His warming reaction to the character was priceless. Love your videos when the boys are included
Oliver looks like he suddenly aged a ton. Growing up goes by so fast!
You gotta get Oliver a stuffy of Chip!! He had the sweetest interaction with him!
Omg My Heart melted with Oliver’s interaction with Chip!!!Chip for the Win!!!
And I love how Jackson is with all the Characters… my heart was melting 😊
I love that tim acts like every time on the ride is his first time
Oliver had a great growth experience with the characters! It was beautiful and heartwarming to watch!! 👶 🐿️ ❤🎉
Good job Oliver you like chip! I bet he will be your buddy forever! He is just so adorable!!!
I was so invested in Oliver and the characters, I was cheering saying yayyy when he gave the first high five 😄🥰 It seemed like he warmed up to Chip the most 💙
Oliver loves Chip so much 😭 That interaction was so adorable!
And Jackson showing you how slow a tree grows 😂 super cute!
Simply delightful ❤
When Oliver was interacting with the chipmunks and just having fun I teared up he's growing up so fast
I got teary too.
Go Oliver! You picked a great character to begin with, dear Chip! 😊
No one even dare argue that the biggest highlight and most adorable moment of this video is Oliver interacting and high fiving with Chip! Took a minute but even those moments are wonderful! I can't get over his smile. Its so heartwarming
Ok, the way Tim always smiles and watches Jenn with admiration is truly the cutest thing ever!! 😍🥰
Hello beautiful family. Being a retired clown I noticed one thing on this video and wanted to share this with you. When 'Chip' got down on his knees then 'Oliver' wasn't scared. If a child looks scared I used to get down to their size and talk soft. I think 'Chip' deserves to huge hug for getting on his knees and going that extra step🩵🫂🩵Keep having fun my friends🪄
Aww this was so cute! Bless Oliver’s little heart with those characters 🥰 It’s funny to me that Jackson didn’t care for the Mac n cheese with goldfish because Story said the same thing about it! And it really surprised me with how much she loves Mac n cheese!
We took my son to WDW when he was 4 and he liked the face characters but wanted nothing to do with the fur characters. We had breakfast at Cinderella’s castle and he told me he would like to dance with Cinderella. I asked Cinderella and she was ready to dance with him - then he chickened out. I was so bummed! He’s 28 now!
Yes! We LOVE the Garden Grill! All the produce is grown in the Living with the Land greenhouses and is (obviously) so fresh! 🌱🥬🥕🌽
LWTL doesn't produce enough produce so it's supplemented by outside sources.
I just love the evolution of your channel as your family is evolving! It’s great to see you two as parents, enjoying life with your babies. 😊
I love it too! So happy for them!
Such a wonderful memory of Oliver meeting the characters
Nothing better than seeing your kids interact with characters.
Oliver and Chip going back and forth booping each others noses 😭😭😭
Those computers with all the flashing lights are left over props from the tv series Buck Rogers in the 25th Century.
One reason I enjoy the family videos- the family interaction reminds me of the days my two daughters were this young- - Jenn with Oliver - Tim talking with Jackson- Jackson’s honest comments- Jenn playing games with boys- the support for each other- it brings me back to those challenging, wonderful days. I was exhausted most days but my heart was always full. Thank you for sharing and giving this person a hug.
That was so much fun to watch! Oliver made me smile as we got more comfortable with the characters! That smile of his was adorable!
GOD BLESS you all!
Oliver warming up to the Characters was so cute! You need to get home a Chip plushie.😎👍🏻✨💫💙
I’d like to add that I suffer from motion sickness and was able to eat at this restaurant without taking anything for my motion sickness. You really don’t notice the movement. I really loved watching Oliver getting used to the characters and Jackson is becoming a lovely young man.
Not going to lie, I literally cheered and teared up when Oliver gave Chip a high five!
Oh gosh the nose booping as well.....
A few videos ago Tim made fun of Jenn when she started with potatoes as her favorite part of a meal. This video Tim started with potatoes. Jenn smiled and looked at the camera. I died 😂💀
Did Oliver bump his face? Jackson is such a good big brother. I love it at this restaurant, it's so much fun xx
The parks on had a photopass person at the front for 1, like Daisy or Minnie or Pluto at the Poly. Oliver did a great job watching his brother and learning it was ok, it was great!
Super fun/adorable watching Oliver's roller coaster of emotions! LOL
My son and Oliver are about the same age (I think they are about a month apart). My mama heart was so excited watching him smile, wave at and then finally high five Chip! 🥰
Tim eating at Garden Grille is like redoing the Eclipse Start daylight then nighttime and back to daylight
The chip nose booping was sooo adorable! Also loved Jackson asking where the cookies came from😂
Loved seeing Oliver make new friends! I think he has chosen his favorite character! Team Chip!
I think when we did the character dining in Norway many MANY years ago...I'm thinking about 15 years ago, we did have a photographer there. I remember the princesses signing the autograph books and then taking a posed picture.
"that's what overalls are good for, Pocketing" 🤔🤪 lol
Jackson sticking his tongue out while taking a pic with mickey & showing how fast a tree grows made me LOL!!
Omg Oliver finally building up the courage to interact with the characters, especially Chip was sooo heart melting, it actually made me tear up... ❤❤❤
I am very sensitive to motion and get sick easily but I was fine at Garden Grill. It’s so subtle that the only time I noticed it was stepping onto and off the dining floor. Good food and the characters were awesome.
Chip understood the assignment on that nose game with Oliver!! We dined as a family at Garden Grill a few years ago and had a fantastic experience! Each character spent so much time at our table and stopped by so many times!
Awww Oliver playing with Chip at the end is so sweet!
Don’t worry Tim, I appreciate your mighty buffalo bit
When my sister went with her family for the first time, my oldest nephew chose German. As a gag gift that Christmas, I gave my brother-in-law a German English dictionary.
Omg, I finally saw the hidden Mickey!!! It ´s not the usual three circles. It ´s his face in profile 🙃 Btw, Oliver wailing at the site of Pluto was just heart wrenching ☹️ and Jackson and the slow growing tree 😂
We ate at Garden Grill once and the restaurant didn’t rotate because it was broken! My grandma used to be one of those telephone operators in the 1940s in Atlanta City,NJ. She got to talk to a few celebrities of that time. 😊
I remember a Photopass photographer at Ohana back in 2016. We didn't have one at 1900 Park Fare when we were there last week.
It was SO much fan seeing Oliver get excited about Chip and Dale and interact more with characters for the first time. Thank you!
We did garden grill for breakfast once, and it was pretty good. The extra large cinnamon roll was the best thing, although it was so sweet that it made my friend a little queasy. I don’t remember there being a photographer there, but there was one at Tusker House in Animal Kingdom.
That was Character magic at its best. Great Character interaction :)
I enjoyed you explaining how switchboards worked to Jackson, and his facial expression. Next time I'm on the ride I'll try to explain to my kids and I'm sure they'll make the same face! 👀
We took our little one to Garden grill when she was a little older than Oliver and had a similar experience. Now she is 3 and loves them so this has me tempted to go back our next trip!
Adorable! Oliver being led to trust the characters bc of big brothers bravery is so sweet.
Thanks for posting this video. My three kids are all grown, but our meal when they were little is one of my favorite memories. It was so nice to be all-you-can-eat brought to the table. It sometimes can be hard to juggle three kids and plates at a buffet. The characters were amazing when we were there, and at that time they brought out cupcakes with the sprinkles in a separate container…so the kids could “decorate” their own cupcakes. My kids loved that! It was the first time they had seen Mickey sprinkles. Thanks for sharing your time there creating memories and giving me the opportunity to remember some treasured ones of mine!
Loved this! We enjoy Garden Grill, but agree the green beans are not a hit! As a Grandmother, I was fixed on the boys and their reactions. So heartwarming, and I was cheering Oliver on! All in all, another fun video & you put a smile back on my face.
Oliver is so cute, both my kids were the same way they didn’t do Santa.
The garden grill is my favorite character meal. It’s really chill and love the food there
Yess just did breakfast as garden grill for my birthday. Definitely recommend and the steak with ranchero Sauce was the best!!
I have watched this Video several times love it...I can't believe the changes in Oliver and Jackson.Oliver facing his fears with the Characters, doing good Sweetie....Thank you for sharing this ❤❤
Photopass sometimes is offered BEFORE the dinner. We've had it in the past at Tusker House and Chef Mickey's and I'm sure Artist Point and Cinderella's Table offers it. I've never seen it available at Garden Grill or Crystal Palace, though.
Yes…we’ve had it at Chef Mickey’s before the meal and with the Beast at Be Our Guest after dinner.
So cute. And then Jackson popped in your pocket.🎉
One day we will put him down and let him walk in the parks and my mind flashed to Jen carrying Oliver and he is 35 years old saying can I get down and walk today mom? My mind does so strange sometimes. 😂
Hold them while you can, they grow too fast ❤
The hidden Mickey gave me Friends vibes. The episode where Rachel can't see her Baby during the scan 😅. I also couldn't see it Tim!
Hahaha I love that episode and yeah I couldn’t see it either 😮
I used to work with characters for kids' story times and the guidance we were told was this: the youngest kids are scared of the characters, the next oldest want to pet or hug the characters, and the next oldest want to be friends with and talk to the characters. Then they hit the questioning phase where they say things like, "I know there is a person in there! I can see their eyes through the mouth!"
All this to say that both kids are having age-appropriate reactions to characters and you guys handled it perfectly by letting them take the lead 😊
Way to go Oliver! You have Chip a high five 🖐🏻
Oh my heart. I almost cried when Oliver high fived Chip.
This video is adorable, love seeing Jackson hug all the characters and it was so cute when Oliver warmed up to chip :) excited when Oliver gets older and he just goes crazy for characters
You guys are always so wonderful with respecting the kids' boundaries in the parks! My parents constantly pressured me at a young age to do things in the parks i wasnt comfortable with, this heals part of my soul. The boys are lucky to have you
The food is so good there and it’s such a fun experience.
I work there!!!! So sad you guys went on my day off :( but so glad you had fun!!!
Oliver has grown so fast.
Omg when Oliver and Chip bonded I was so excited !!!! Melted my heart
Did "Even the mighty buffalo..." become the new "Did you know we're EXACTLY as far from haunt season..."? XD
Love y’all’s little family ♥️ still can’t believe the boys are growing up! How special to have all of these memories to look back on 🥹🫶
Oh, this place brings back memories! I haven't eaten there in years, but back during my CM days, it was one of my favorites because you got the best interactions. I even went there for my birthday a few times. I'm a former entertainment CM and was "friends with" the chipmunks- working this location was a lot of fun because you didn't have to rush. There was plenty of time to play with everyone. There used to be a roll of paper towels and a little watering can filled with crayons at every table, and sometimes the characters would just sit and draw with the kids for a while.
It was so wonderful to watch Oliver's progress!! Your boys just melt my heart!!! It was hilarious that one minute you are saying you don't like the green beans and the next minute Mickey is taking credit for them. I was thinking "you don't want to do that, Mickey" LOL
I loved the cold open! Great job making that flow so well ❤
Garden Grill is our favorite character meal. This year will be our sixth trip and we’ve gone to Garden Grill each trip. The characters spend so much time with each table and the food is great. Plus nothing beats hitting up Soarin and LWTL on a full stomach!
Thoroughly enjoyed this!☺️
I wore overalls as a teen SO MUCH. I was obsessed. So now I'm gonna need these
You guys can always give the food service crew some comments how food taste. Thank you Tim,Jen Oliver and Jackson for sharing the vlog!
Looks like a great time.
I’m curious if you told your server, they could have taken care of the problem with the over salted green beans. They definitely looked good
When Farmer Mickey said he was responsible for the green beans I was like "uhh ohh" !!! You guys didn't have the heart to tell him to ease up on the salt 😆✌️❤️
I love that fact that Jackson forgets that he has been doing character meals since he was able to be carried into the parks!
This was a fun one to watch.
The World is your Garden Grill! Breakfast is wonderful too.
I love your outfit Jenn!!! 💜
Pluto can be a frightening character for young kids. One of my first childhood memories is Pluto scaring the ding dang doodle gosh out of me at 2 years old.
Awwwww Oliver loves chipmunks, so cute! ❤️🐿
