After every vacation, my DS has always used some part of it in a school report or presentation. He did a wonderful report then presentation on Sting Rays after going to Sting Ray City. He was able to show pictures and share ideas that he couldn't have gotten anywhere else. For these, though...

Well we have officially abandoned the ship. With the school vacation change it is just not feasible to go on Disney. We are now booked on a Princess Cruise with most of the same ports. Have a great time! :sunny:

Got some bad news. Our school district just changed the holiday for Christmas next year so that we don't get out until the 22nd. It is only tenative but it is looking like that is where it is going. If it was only a matter of taking my son out for a week I would definitely consider still...

Nothing has changed here on my screen. Thanks for the joke, it was definitely true. :goodvibes

Just checking in. It was beautiful here so I blew off painting my sons room and worked outside all day. :flower: I need to get the painting done so I can get all our boxes emptied but couldn't stand being inside. Hope everyone else had a wonderful weekend. :sunny:

Can't sleep so I thought I would check in. I finally got the dogs settled and now I am wide awake. :dog: :dog: We are finally settling into our new house and DS is back from his Washington DC trip so now I can concentrate on other things, like visiting all of you. :teeth: I hope that I don't...

One of my favorite's is the chocolate souffle though our waiter at Palo's for brunch brought me an incredible cafe mocha, best I ever had. Now, my DS (10 at the time) has much more sophisticated tastes and loved the baked clams with tomato sauce and the steamed lobster on Captain's Gala night.

Hi all, Haven't been around for awhile because of moving and busy at work but had a few down moments so thought I'd share. We were having a busy day and didn't know what to have for dinner and my DS looked at me and said, "I wish we could just get a All Hands On Deck Platter." I looked at...

Since everyone in our family gets up at different times, we all did what we wanted. Several mornings, on the last cruise we would met another couple who happened to be sitting on deck nine near the coffee and talked, several times over an hour. They had pasteries and stuff so that was pleasant.

Just checking in. We sold our house so I was a bit nervous about the cruise situation. We discussed it at dinner tonight and it is still on. :cool1: I hope everyone has a wonderful Labor Day weekend.

Hey all, it has been a long time since I have been here. I went back to work, started my term as PTA president, continue trying to finish my field work for my administrative credential and we are trying to get the house ready to sell. A bit too much at once. It sounds like everyone is as...

My DS and I are off to a ranch to ride horses for a week. He is hoping to work some cows as well, always the highlight of the trip. A bunch of city folds pretending to be cowhands. :teeth: Tomorrow we go to the King Tut exhibit then pick our Hary Potter book at midnight and then head out...

I usually take two pair of shoes that take me to dinner, a pair of tennis shoes, and as many flip flops as possible. I love flip flops. :teeth:

It is great to hear about what you are doing in DC. My DS will be going for a week in Oct for a leadership program and it sounds like you are hitting many of the same places. I hope he gets out of it as much as it sounds like you are. Denise, I have recently "discovered" Chicos and I love...

Yes we saw the caurosel and it was great. My DS is a too old to enjoy riding it so we didn't go on it. I love each age as he grows up but miss the things that he use to do. Have a great weekend everyone. :cool1:

I would redo the family pool. It needs to be much bigger, like ten times as big with a couple of different slides.

Back again after a fun 4th. Denise , thanks for mentioning the Wild Animal Park, my DS and I had a wonderful time. He was amazed with the new lion exihibit. In a week and a half my DS and I leave for a dude ranch with my mom. We go every year and my son can never decide if he likes the...

I have a DS that is 11 who would love to have a kids thread started.

I got the top! First time!

Thanks for letting me know what time the park opens, we will be there at 9:00. If you see a short, wide, blonde lady with her son who is almost as tall and brown hair and complaining his feet hurt (he gets it from his Dad) stop us to say hi because we will be there on Sunday morning. I can't...
