Rose, I think the darker hair color makes your eyes(beautiful by the way) pop out more, I like the darker color myself.

 

[Verandah Man]

Gotta go, running late this morning, see y'all later.........

 

[tikimimi]

great pictures of your daughter. She is beautiful. My granddaughter Asiah has cheered 3 years in a row for Midgets. She loves it. Di

I hope your DGD continues to enjoy it!

Well, a ruined Christmas gift for my boy......

While I was at book group, we got a call from one of my neighbors. Rob and Derek (my almost 13 year old) both picked up the phone at the same time, and, almost immediately, my neighbor, who thought she was only talking to Rob, says, "Rob, I know y'all got the kids "Rock Band for Christmas, they just went on sale at Walmart." Derek heard the whole thing.....It is his and Alex's gift from Santa. He has known about Santa for a year or two, but was totally bummed that the surprise was ruined (I think he even shed a few tears over it.) It couldn't be helped, really. My neighbor doesn't know she ruined it, and I am not telling her. She would feel terrible. Rob told him that not to get too upset, there could be other surprises in store.

He and Alex have no idea that we are taking them to WDW.....I think we will just go to school on the 18th and check them all out early and hit the road. They won't know what hit 'em.

I am so sorryt his happened. Your neighbor probably would feel awful, but what a sad thing for your kids. If you can keep a Disney trip a secret, you are great!!! I say go for it - they'll be SOOOO surprised. Heck, maybe htey can go visit Santa and he can give them tickets early.

Good morning. Got back late last night and haven't had time to catch up from the weekend. The party was a success and everyone had a great time. My parents loved their scrapbook. Time well worth spent. Gotta run get ready for work.
Have a great Monday everyone.

So glad the scrapbook was successful! I think it is such a precious way to preserve memories.

Rose, I think the darker hair color makes your eyes(beautiful by the way) pop out more, I like the darker color myself.

My thoughts exactly - the color now makes the eyes pop out at you, and you do have beautiful eyes.

Have a great Monday everyone - off to work.

Rose - Your hair looks very pretty darker!

Yowsa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its always that much! - you lot have it easy over there. Our transatlantic flights are always the expensive part. If they werent so bad we'd cruise more often.

That doesnt include car hire or park passes either

..... if only I lived in Wisconsin and had a money tree

Frost on the pumpkins this morning..........

Time to get ready for work, see ya later..........

Karen, it's fall here. The leaves have fallen off the tree (year-end expenses of Xmas presents, property taxes, home/personal insurance, etc.). Seems to be timed with the seasons.

And you wonder why we're not on the plane that way? Try those airfares combined with a week dollar.

Oh yes Mimi we are just fine . We had a quiet weekend. Pete and I went fishing Saturday and Sunday for a couple of hour's. It was cold but we had fun . When we left yesterday morning at 6:00AM it was 28 degrees.
Nancy went to church yesterday while I stayed home and got an Eye of the Round Roast ready to cook,and yes it came out great. We went for a walk uptown yesterday afternoon to look at the Halloween paintings the kids did on the store front windows. It's an annual event.
Well to all us loyal Red Sox's fans it was another great year. They did get to game 7. of the ALCS Thats more than the Yankees did.
Every body have a great day .Again Nancy is subbing and leaving me the honey do list.

PS
Cassy Nancy and I will send you info to add to our picture in a couple of day's.

Wow....that's insanity!
And here I am mulling over having to pay about $500/person for a one way to Barcelona! I don't feel so bad suddenly!!!!

Yes, it's very cold here this morning, as well. I guess the cold season is finally here.

Now, now Dan. On behalf of all of us loyal Yankee fans, you have to say more than the Yankees did THIS YEAR.

 

[captchris]

Good morning everyone.

I think the cold is finally here for all of us in the Northern US! There was quite a heavy frost outside when I put the dog out, and I am contemplating if I should drive the kids to the bus stop or not. I think I will just suck it up and walk them. How cold can I get in just a few minutes of waiting with them???

We are contemplating if we should take the day off or not. We worked long days all weekend, and this week will be a long week as well. When we do take days off, we usually take Mondays since we often have to work Saturday and Sunday.

Hmmmmm what to do???

Bummer, but he will be ok once he gets to play with it. WDW will still be a great surprise.

How are your parents doing with the storm repair?

You get him!!!!!

They are in morning in my house

 

[GOS]

With our 33rd wedding anniversary coming up this Friday, thought I'd post a pic from that very "special day" in 1975!!!

Wow Andy...I saw this picture and thought "Blue Suede Shoes" Great Picture.

 

[disgrits]

Bummer, but he will be ok once he gets to play with it. WDW will still be a great surprise.

New floors go in today. Now they will have hard floors throughout the house, so when this happens again, the clean up will be much easier. How 'bout down on your end?
