Ian - DH said to pass on that he will be cheering on your Canadiens for the remainder of the playoffs - as long as you calm those people in Montreal down!!!

Vicki - DH is in awe of your DH!!!

And now both of you have him SOOOO excited about the FE which I had been trying to explain to him for months - but of course he didn't care - well guess what - NOW HE CARES!!!

Happy Birthday to Brooke and Becca!!!
Permit at 14! Here in PA permit was and is currently 16 with a six month waiting period for your license!! They intend to shift it to 18 soon!!!

Marsha - glad to hear other grandparents think that they should have their grandchildren ALL to themselves ALL the time!! We laugh at my MIL and FIL who do not like to attend family functions with my fam because "they do not get enough one on one time with the girls"!!!!! I say TAKE THEM and you can have all the one on one you want!!!!

My youngest is three also and can join in the 3 yr old acting like maniac games - she's faster than lightening and has no fear - is it the age - trying to remember if my older one was like that. I should also say mine has a temper - she is a red head (I have to use that rather than say she got it from me!!)!!!

Ian - I think we will wait until you pirate night and make you walk the plank!!!!!

Hope everyone has a great day!!!

I love our parents. They are so funny. They "fight" over DS. DH's mom was upset because DS got to spend a week with my parents at their house when his daycare was closed. DH's mother was jealous. She wanted him to be able to spend a week with her at her house but she lives in FL. It was funny to us. My parents are just a few hours drive away so we were able to take him up to their house and they were able to drive him back. Of course, DS eats it up for a short whul then he wants to run and play.

I am glad DS will have some playmates. Hopefully, they will have a chance to run around together.

Now, I am not a hockey fan but I do cheer for my hometeam, the Philadelphia Flyers! And, I do believe they are playing your team, Ian.

dopeygirl-would your DH be interested in some press information from Gretsky's retirement game at MSG if my DH has any left?

IM A BIG HABS FAN, IM %% SO I GO WAY BACK TO THE ORIGINAL 6. THE RANGERS AND BRUINS WERE THE DOORMATS BACK IN THE 60s AND 50s. I WATCHED GRETZKY PLAY JUNIOR HOCKEY HERE WHEN HE PLAYED FOR THE SAULT STE. MARIE GREYHOUNDS. ALL MY FRIENDS WERE TORONTO LEAF FANS, MY FAMILY CAME FROM MONTREAL AREA, SO I BECAME HABS FAN.
WHAT THE HABS FANS WERE DOING IN MONTREAL AFTER THEY WON THE LAST SERIES IS NOTHING COMPARED TO WHEN ROCKET RICHARD WAS SUSPENDED BACK BEFORE 1960.BOTH YOUR DH SHOULD WATCH THE MOVIE CALLED ROCKET. INTERESTING TRUE STORY ABOUT ROCKET RICHARD. THERE IS ANOTHER MOVIE JUST PLAYING ON MOVIE NET WORK I THINK ITS CALLED NET WORTH. ABOUT THE ORIGINAL SIX OWNERS AND THE NHL PRESIDENT CLARENCE CAMPBELL CONTROLLING THE PLAYERS BACK BEFORE A UNION. THATS WHEN THE PLAYERS TRIED TO FORM A DECENT UNION. MANY PLAYERS RETIRED BROKE. WELL HOPE I HAVENT BORED ANYONE BUT BEING CANADIAN AND GROWING UP AND LIVING IN THE HOCKEY HOT BED OF SOUTHERN ONTARIO HOCKEY IS IN OUR BLOOD. I GREW UP WITH PLAYERS WHEN I WAS YOUNG. WElL I GUESS IM RaMBLING. I CAN TALK TO YOUR DHs ABOUT HOCKEY AS MUCH AS DISNEY. I HAVE MANY INTERESTING STORIES. OH MY FRIENDS UNCLE PLAYED FOR THE PITTSBURGH PENGUINS IN THE 60s WHEN THEY FIRST STARTED. HIS NAME WAS SCHINKEL.

Vicki - Absolutely!!! Thank you! Thank you!

Ian - Rambling allowed - I read your post to DH and he is a sports freak and stores unbelieveable amounts of info in his brain - things I call USELESS information- so he was awed by your hockey knowledge!!! Beware if he finds you the two of you may never stop yakking between Disney and Hockey!!!!

Marsha - we are so blessed to have all of our grandparents within a 30 minute drive - my parents - both sets - live less than 3 miles. My in laws think that a week is way to long to go without seeing the girls! After our family trip last month I know how special those memories with family vacations are!!! I'm sure your DS will have lots of people wanting to see him do different things. My DGM said that was the best part of her trip - watching the girls have fun in MK!!!!

I better stop procratinating - I start a new schedule today - working more hours - our company is expanding and my duties are growing - don't know if I like it but we will see!!!!

Good Morning Everyone! It's Monday again. Sure do wish we could have one more day to the weekend. They go by so darn fast.

No kidding! But, at least it's a few days closer to the Boat!

 

[BigDogHU75]

Godd Afternoon! I hope your day is going well.

Chris - I am with you. I wish another day was added to this weekend. But, as Redeemed said each day that passes means we are getting close to the boat.

I just checked and didn't see anything.

Ginny,
Thank you & (I believe this is your first post on our thread). Did you make any reservations? Also, I see you are doing a B2B2B. Will you have the same room for all the cruises?

 

[Luckymomoftwo]

So how was everybody's Monday? Mine was crazy hectic...but I like crazy hectic it sure beats slow and boring. I'm glad to be home...even though I have to help DS study for a social studies test. FUN! (NOT!)

MARSHA, MARSHA, MARSHAwhat is a B2B2B? CANT FIGURE IT OUT.

If I remember correctly, there are one or two other families on this thread that are in Indiana, right? We just took a weekend trip to Warsaw, Indiana. DH had meetings there and I drove a little further to spend time with my Aunt in Fort Wayne while he was in his meeting on Saturday. Then on Sunday, I went back to Fort Wayne to this incredibly old Science "museum". (THAT was a waste of money!) But then when I got back to Warsaw, I had about an hour to waste before DH was done in his meeting. So I drove around. I found this BEAUTIFUL lake called "Village at Winona". Now I want to go back there for a weekend again and just hang out there. It was the cutest community!!! Just wondered if anyone else has had the pleasure of visiting there. It kind of reminded me of Indiana's version of Celebration, but a few scales down.

I think it might be my 2nd post....I've been trying to keep up with just reading all of the posts.

We have the same room for the first two legs....but not the member cruise. Does anybody want to trade rooms?

Hope everybody is having a great week!

Ginny - please quit lurking and join in on the Unless, of course, you think we're all a little crazy. You couldn't possibly think that about us! Could you? Not really, right?

Sorry...no go on the trading rooms....unless you're in the Roy or Walt suite. We are in our first veranda room and cannot wait!!!!!

I'm glad you'll be on the ship for a week prior to the DVC cruise...that way you can make sure the ship is all ready for us DVCers!

Ginny, I know keeping up with posts can be challenging, especially, since you are doing three cruises in September and probably are reading three cruise meet threads. But, we would love to get to know you too. We are not too crazy. Just Disney fanatics with some hockey fanatics in the mix (hi Ian! ).

Spent the day in Downtown Disney!

 

[calypso726]
