Punch or juice with paper umbrellas. Make edible leis with Froot Loops. A dessert with pineapple. Of course, have everyone wear Hawaiian shirts, sun dresses, sandals, sunglasses. Play Beach Boys/surfer songs and teach them how to dance to them. A big sign that says "aloha first grade" that...

I think Burger King had them last year. Every McD's around here was out and I found them there. Tasted pretty similar to me.

Wow, you guys are making me re-think this whole thing! For a little background, we are meeting friends who live on the east coast which is why we chose Kentucky rather than stay in Michigan. (Plus I've never really heard of any houseboat trips here but maybe I'm misssing something). We had...

I was thinking Lake Cumberland but that's just because that's what I've read about. We're open to suggestions.

We're thinking of renting a houseboat in Kentucky this August. There will be four adults and five kids ages 10-14. Any advice? Which companies are best? What size boat? How many days? Day trips off the boat or stay on the boat all day? Any idea of pricing? Have your kids this age enjoyed...

We have fleece sheets which I like even more than flannel (and they don't produce nearly as much lint in the dryer). We got ours at Costco but I think Bed, Bath and Beyond has them too.

You might want to check Craigslist or Freecycle. Or put your own ad on there for a free or cheap one. Lots of people place ads for free ones because they are so expensive to move and they don't want to pay for it. Our local paper has listings for free ones all the time (near the garage sale...

We have stayed at BWV many times and just stayed at BCV over Thanksgiving. Our kids are 11 and 13 so I am comfortable with the BCV pool (they are both strong swimmers). When they were younger though, I much preferred the BWV pool. You can see them go up and down the slide and you can see the...

Books of stamps, boxes of assorted greeting cards so they don't need to go out every time they need a card, subscription to USA Today, NY Times etc., transfer old home movies on to DVD, fleece sheets (love them!).

I just saw some Disney themed houses at Macy's. I didn't look that closely so I'm not sure if they're the ones you're looking for or not though.

Yes, I heard the new one is better than the Vulcan, also. I heard the Vulcan jammed a lot and used lots of batteries. I've seen the new one at Costco (or Sam's) can't remember which. Plus, I think Toys R Us has buy the gun and get some free ammo this week. My DS wants the new one, too.

Any suggestions of what we should request for a studio at BCV? We don't usually stay there so I'm not as familiar with the layout. I'd love to have a view of the fireworks (either MK or Epcot) but also something fairly quiet (after the fireworks are over). I'd also like something that's not...

1. Have Thanksgiving dinner at Liberty Tree Tavern-first year we've been able to get reservations. 2. Finish any Kim Possible Missions we missed last time. 3. See the new Riverboat show for the new Princess/Frog movie. Considering a fourth--one of the Epcot tours (Dolphins, swim in...

Great--thank you!!! :thumbsup2

So you put the Getzs code on the Nordstrom website? (Am I reading that right??) If not, how did you get the discount to work at Nordstrom? Can you use the discount in a Nordstrom store, too? Thanks!

My DS is 13. A few years ago we got him a nice red toolbox with a couple tools. Now every year he gets a new tool or gadget to go with it. He likes to help us with projects and it's something he should learn how to do anyway. I figure he'll have a decent set by the time he finishes college...

Our kids (10 and 12) love it!! One of the first things they ask about when we get to WDW. We are lucky to be able visit Disney World fairly often so we don't mind spending time there. If we were going on a once in a life time trip however, we'd probably skip it. We try to go when they first...

Not that this is one of your choices, but you might want to consider the Boardwalk. Lots of restaurants (including ESPN if your BF is a sports fan) and you can walk to the Yacht/Beach Club and Swan/Dolphin and all of their restaurants. Also, you can walk (or take a boat ride) to Epcot (more...

IMO, that's a lot of bus rides to get to a dinner that you're not 100% sure about. Our kids (10 and 12) love AKL but aren't crazy about the restaurants there. They'd much rather eat at one of the DTD restaurants. Might want to spend the day at DTD, eat and head over to DHS. Just a thought...
