Happy Birthday Mark & Mary !!!!

 

[danandnan]

Glad Nancy is better! Sounds like that grandson is doing great! And the others?

Mary and Mark - Happy Birthday!

I brought home lots of work, so I don't how much I'll be on tonight. It sure seems like the cruise is getting closer when we can call to change ressies!!!

We did ours today Mimi. From Saratoga to Old Key West. In a few weeks we will be able to make our ressies for Animal Kingdom Lodge for when we return from the cruise. You are staying there also when we return arn't you?
Everybody else in the family is doing great. Hockey has ended for another year.

Right now, our ressie for coming back is at Saratoga. We planned to call at the 7 month mark to move it. I hope we can get it moved! We still aren't sure where we want to stay. We think we want to be closer to MK for the MMNSSHP - we'll see!

If im not correct MiMi along with Nancy and I Joanne and Roger are staying a AKL would have to check with Kathy but I think she and Frank are also and also Leisha and Tom. The plan is we all eat breakfast together at Boma's then all do the parks and do MMNSSHP together
at night.

 

[danandnan]

Mimi I thought you knew that. You and Mack have to be with us. If you won't be staying at AKL we will have to meet up with you.
Come on girl you can't break up our group. Just joking you and Mack stay where you want

Yepper, we will be pooped. Some of you are staying Sunday as well? We can stay until about 3. Then we have to hit the road.

Oh Leisha tell Tom is is lifting for Football. He is now bench pressing 485 LBS and lift and squart 300.
His body at his 308 lbs is like a rock.

Dan

I am glad Nancy is feeling better. Tommy said it sounds like they have him in a great program. He was glad that he was majoring in sports management. You know him anything to do with sports. Megan has changed her major to education which surprised us. She wants to teach high school and coach. I guess it really should not surprise us since Ryan is coaching wrestling and Tommy is an assistant coach for baseball. They think they may have found a permanent baseball coach so he may be stepping down. The players will be glad because he and the head coach are really hard on the kids. He wants to start on a new press box for the football field. It never ends.

I am looking forward to after the cruise as much as the cruise.

Right now our thinking is to come home on Mon because it looks like Jet Blue only has a direct flight to Portland on certain days. Dan would like to stay longer but I want to avoid a flight with layover if at all possible. Personally I think by Monday we'll be ready to get home anyway. And very likely our pocketbook will be ready too!!!!

Our plans are to leave very early on Monday to drive back. Megan has to be at work at midnight on Monday.

So you will be there all day Sunday as well. I think the Jet Blue direct flight leaves ORL late Mon AM but they haven't actually posted flights beyond Oct 31. That's one thing I've noticed about JB - no consistancy in flight times. During the winter it goes at noon but in Oct it's almost 2:00. Go figure!

Hey Everyone! No Joanne - I have to agree with you - not soon enough!!! Especially after the week I am having and it is only Tuesday!

We will be leaving Sunday - must drive back for work on Monday.

Hey Everyone

We are trying for BLT(currently on the waitlist) before the cruise and we are staying at BCV after the cruise. If we can't get into BLT, we might consider VWL. That is the only older DVC resort we haven't stayed at. We will be arriving Thursday before and we will being staying until Tuesday. It is less expensive to fly Tue, Wed and Thu. We are doing MNSSHP before the cruise rather than after. I really don't want to deal with the crowds on Halloween at MK.

I wish we could do it that way, but I can't take more than 5 days off from school - I'm pushing it to do that! That will be 2 football games I'll miss too and with coaching cheerleading, it isn't good to miss them. I do wish we could though!

Here too Roger only has so many vacation days so far this year. So with the friday before it will be six days off. I can't wait to tell a new employer sorry I am taking a week off!!!

I did that with ADP. I just told them up front and they were ok with that. They even paid me for it which I did not expect. I did have to bring rum back for my manager. Which I have done every year.

That I could do!!! One for me-one for you!!

Joanne - I told my employer (new for me this year) before I signed my contract that I was taking the week off for the SSMC08. I figured if there was a problem, it was better to know before I signed my contract. IT worked out fine. I bet something similar to one of these two solutions or bribes will work fine!
