Hey Heather! - hands off Mimi's dress - I'm first in line ... I'd need to lose about half my body weight first though.

I'm so short, that'll I'll have to shorten it so much, I'd loose half the lovely pattern.

Either you read my answer or went to Wikipedia! LOL

Rick went to Wikipedia. I did say we cheated.

Tony and Stacy are pretty sure they are coming but the newleyweds aren't so sure. It's not that they don't want to, it's all about he money.

Yep...I'm sure there are plenty feeling the same way! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for them.

 

[GOS]

So, now that I've caught up...Rick wants to watch a film, so night all and I'l have to catch up again tomorrow.

Wow, Mimi...you look lovely and that dress is to die for.

Thank you - you too can have one just like it. I think it was Nordstrom on sale - wherever it was, it was on sale!

Excellent..I won't be on my own in Red then.

I actually saw a red dress before Christmas that I stopped and looked at through the window. I mentioned it to Mack and asked what he thought of it for the semi-formal night (it was short). It was nice.

Either you read my answer or went to Wikipedia! LOL

Now, now (says the English teacher in her teacher voice) - Wikipedia is not a reliable source. Anyone can edit it.

I remember seeing a special back in the 80s or 90s about rides at WDW on The Disney Channel that said the monorail was the fastest ride at WDW. At the time, space mountain was the fastest coaster at an incredible speed of 28 mph.

The documentary went onto say that the monorail traveled 40 mph. Now, Rockin Roller Coaster, Test Track, and Everest all go faster than our beloved monorail.

I was surprised that everyone guessed such low speeds. I guess it doesn't really feel like you're going that fast because it's so smooth. I am really excited that we are staying in a 'monorail hotel' this time! Ever since the first time I saw the Contemporary Hotel on TV (I think it was on the Walt Disney Show) I thought it was the coolest thing I had ever seen.

With all this red dress talk, I just remembered that I have a lovely red dress that I bought in Hilo Hatties when we were in Hawaii. It's not formal, just a dress for dinner one night (I like to wear sundresses to dinner), but I'm glad you all reminded me because I really love it. Of course, I will need to lose a few (cough cough) pounds to get into it, but it's worth it!. I have plenty of motivation, between the Hawaiian cruise in Sept and the Bash! But I expect you all to keep me motivated and I will do the same for you!

Me too Heather. It wouldn't be the same without those two.

Ditto.

Hey Mike, Kristin and I are talking about photography. Could you please post the black and white picture of Cassie sitting down up against a wall with her head on her knees? I thought it was the most amazing picture I ever saw.

Thanks dear.

i'd be happy to post a pic of our depressed child.

this was one of my favs also. i think she won an award for this one.

for those of you who dont know (and i havnt bored to tears) our dd cassie and her fiance run their own photog studio down near Dayton, oh.

I know a couple of BOBer's planning for Christmas 2011, I always say the more the merrier!

We did the same thing Mike. We would go to Disney on a wing and a prayer. We'd drive down, stay at Ho-Jo's, eat out of a cooler packed with food from home and our indulgence was a pizza. We would just hang around the hotel pool all day and give the kids a few quarters to play arcade games. If we could afford a day at the Magic Kingdom, we would have to play down the kids ages just to be able to afford it. I remember packing sandwiches and soda in a cooler too. When we got hungry we would go out to the van and eat there. Sometimes the kids would nap out there too.

Ahhhhh, the good old days, eh?

they were the best.

i remember getting arbys on sale on rte 192 and taking them to park one day (to save a few bucks) and some lady giving us the strangest looks.
i think they frowned on people bringing in their own food back in those days.

an older guy who worked at perkins on 192 always called cassie sugar pudding. just one of those memories you never forget.
only about a year ago did michael tell me how much he appreciated all those trips and he hopes to take their kids as often.

 

[Dyerneeds]

I should have shouldn't I! Maybe I'll have to snap a sleeping Dawg next October instead.

you mean like this one robin snapped of me snoozing in 2001?
note the "stash"

 

[Dyerneeds]

I did of course .... Avctually, this may be a good time to boast!


ARE YOU READY FOR THIS?


ARE YOU SURE?

On Buzz lightyear I got the highest score possible - 999999

I knew about the volcano top target, but I managed to hit another one twice and I heard a noise from the console and I looked and I'd got 999999

Theres just one problem.... ....... I cant rememebr which target it was .... I was so shocked it had gone by before I registered what had happened ... It was after the volcano and I wasnt facing forward...it wasnt particualry up high and it was on the side of something.... thats all I know....so from now on instead of Karen mouse / Auzzie you can all address me as Karen Mouse aka Galactic Hero

cassie gets that score every stinking time!!
now she told robin where to hit and wont tell me so robin beats me every time too.
thats ok, i beat her at toy story mania.
