[Cheryl N. WI]

I barely hear music. Should it be crystal clear or very faint?

Sometimes there is no music, sometimes it's faint and other times pretty clear. Now I can hear people talking and laughing and they must be playing some games on the Boardwalk because every now and then I hear people chearing and clapping. The fireworks were very loud, a little brite to see, but very loud.

 

[Timon]

we miss everyone too.
believe me, you dont want to know all the stuff going on around here.
robins dads back in the hospital. getting violent in the nursing home again.

and that the risk of boring everyone to tears, thats all i'm going to say about that.

Sorry to hear about that You guys need some serious hugs!!

Good afternoon everyone We saw the Indiana Jones movie this morning and we really enjoyed it, another entertaining action packed film The radiologists I work with "rented" the theatre for the employees and their families and gave us money for snacks too, it was very nice!

Wow, that's too cool!

Me too, I had it on earlier while I was surfing, almost like being there

: and prayers that your nephew Nick continues to heal without surgery!!!!

Thanks! He's doing ok, his surgeon told him this morning that he's there until Thursday at least and there's no sports for 3 months and no physical activity for at least a month, so for a sports-minded teenage boy, with summer around the corner, it's gonna suck for him! But he understands it's for his health.

Oh my!! Extra little prayers are being said for a quick recovery. Thanks MG

I would've love it Rose! Doesn't anyone else think ironing is relaxing and fun? Only crazy Mother Goose LOL!



She's always been such a smiley girl. Here she is only one day old.

Awwwww, What a sweeeeeetie!!!


Yes, it is the camera I had on the cruise. I did run in to Best Buy today and spoke with a friend of ours who works in the camera department. I got a few lessons on how to get quicker shots and I'm willing to practice again before I get a new one. I should've listened to Cass when she gave me her digital camera advice. Instead I went with the waterproof one. Aghhh! Tony got one for Christmas from us (in DIS green) and they received a new one for a wedding gift so he might be interested in unloading (ooops, I mean selling) his to Rachel. I'll ask him later.

Sorry about your camera woes MG

How about some party animals? O.K., maybe some "lying around" animals.

OMG, good thing I wasn't drinking when I saw this one!! TOO FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!

I barely hear music. Should it be crystal clear or very faint?:

Should be able to hear it quite well....oh wow, looks like the Boardwalk is on fire HAHAHAHA, maybe they should fix that camera

O.K., here are some of DS baseball game this morning. I missed the two first hits because he actually hit the first pitch each time. Man, what a difference a year made in his hitting.

Wow, has he ever grown!!! He looks so tall and slim!!!

Here is DS's expressions when we told him about the repo. The first one is his first reaction. The second one is him thinking about what we told him and what we're doing. The 3rd one is blurry because he kept jumping up and down quickly with excitement.

Those are awesome!!!! He's gonna have a blast

Please add arielhead and DH's 18th anniversary Oct 27. Thanks!

[Cheryl N. WI]

What theatre did you guys go to Cheryl?

Suz work rented out the Ultra Screen at the new Marcus in Brookfield and we saw a preview of Kung Fu Panda. Funny movie. Not sure if I'd take real little kids though.

We were at the Majestic. We were in a "regular" theatre. More people showed up for this than had signed up for it and they were running out of seats in the theatre we were in so they told people they could move to the Ultra Screen theatre but the movie would start in there half an hour later than in the theatre we were in. Rach wanted us to move but we couldn't because Al had to pick up his aunt's lawn mower from being fixed and get it back to her so we couldn't wait for the later movie.

 

[Cheryl N. WI]

She's always been such a smiley girl. Here she is only one day old.

She is smiling and she looks so alert!

Yes, it is the camera I had on the cruise. I did run in to Best Buy today and spoke with a friend of ours who works in the camera department. I got a few lessons on how to get quicker shots and I'm willing to practice again before I get a new one. I should've listened to Cass when she gave me her digital camera advice.

Cass what is your digital camera advice???? Rachel has a very nice didgital camera, in fact it is newer and nicer than the one Al and I have, but she thinks she needs a new one that is waterproof Al and I keep telling her what she has is fine and that if we have time to stop at Niagara Falls on our way home from our trip east later this month we can use the 35mm waterproof camera we have for pictures there.

 

[Verandah Man]

Lordy, Hazel is having some MAJOR hot flashes tonight, I'm sitting here freezing because I needed to turn the A/C colder for her. I'm in my chair wrapped in a blanket and she is walking around sweating like crazy. You poor women who have to go through this, and us poor men that have to deal with you poor women.

 

[Verandah Man]

I think I am getting frost bite on the end of my nose, my fingers are so cold I can hardly type..........

 

[Cheryl N. WI]

Feel better Rachel.

I think I need to fumigate my house, first Al with the stomach flu now her with this cough I gave her some cough medicine with coedine so that hopefully we will be able to get some sleep tonight. When she gets a cough like this she is able to sleep through it once she falls asleep but I keep waking up from hearing her cough, Al on the otherhand can sleep through anything.

 

[Verandah Man]

That's it, I'm turning off my laptop for the night and going outside to warm up a bit, see y'all tomorrow...........

Hmmm, Mother Goose, what did I tell you again???

Ummm, I honestly don't even remember what I told Nancy I probably mentioned that she should try taking pics with it in the store and maybe have them print one out for her. Some cameras have worse lags than others, so it's best that you try out the one you are going to have. I have had the Canon SD digital elphs since our first one in 1994 and I love them! Rob's parents just bought the newest one and I am in love even more We will be buying that one before our Vegas trip! The flash isn't as bright on that one as it is on ours.

Sounds like me and Rob everyday But I don't have AC He'd be an icicle if we did

For those of you who may have thought about parasailing at Castaway Cay...

Here is a link to my video from last week. Yes, I took my video camera up with me. (At my own risk, they kept reminding me.)

I am flying tandem with DD 8 Sarah. They dipped us in the water three times at the end.

Awesome video Thanks for sharing Matt!!


Off to watch Andromeda Strain on the DVR

 

[JLDSMD]

OMG, good thing I wasn't drinking when I saw this one!! TOO FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, that Polar Bear and the Tiger on its back were the best.

 

[JLDSMD]

Wow, has he ever grown!!! He looks so tall and slim!!!

I think he's grown just under 2 inches since the cruise last October. He has always been slim, usually only in the 10%-35% range for his age.

Nice video. I didn't know the kids could go that young. Your daughter seemed to really enjoy it though. Was she scared before going up?

Wonder if DS would do that?

 

[JLDSMD]

We were at the Majestic. We were in a "regular" theatre. More people showed up for this than had signed up for it and they were running out of seats in the theatre we were in so they told people they could move to the Ultra Screen theatre but the movie would start in there half an hour later than in the theatre we were in. Rach wanted us to move but we couldn't because Al had to pick up his aunt's lawn mower from being fixed and get it back to her so we couldn't wait for the later movie.

Too bad we didn't know you were there. We could have done lunch afterwards. Our movie went from 11:00 to 12:30. What time did you get out?

 

[JLDSMD]

Jeff, this one is my favorite!

Thanks. I was going to delete it, but it shows how fast he was jumping up and down, so I kept it.

 

[Karen Mouse]

10 weeks till Sean goes off to Florida!

Did I mention that a couple of weeks ago he lost his credit/debit card?

I called it in lost and had it cancelled for him ( against Bob telling me to have him do it himself and be responsible, but Sean was really sick for a few days so as the horrible mother I am I did it for him)

Anyway, about a week and a half later he's showing me something in his wallet and guess what I see!

He just looks at me and shrugs his shoulders and giggles

"Sean", I say angrily..." How many times did you even look in this wallet for your
missing card?"

Would you believe he looked in there 3 times!
Yup, my ADHD son.

Off to be all on his own in another state far away from ours!

Guess he's going to have to figure out some way of dealing with life and being responsible really really soon!

Sounds like Neil and Ellis - they cant find anything either

Sean sounds like my Rob...can't find milk in the fridge!!!! Trust me babe, it's in there....keep looking!
:

Must be a man thing

And more ST's...just burning a video for my another one of my nephews, Nick who got himself a broken nose and a lacerated liver playing rugby on Thursday. He is in the hospital and basically can't move from his bed for the next few days. Thankfully the bleeding stopped and so far he doesn't need surgery.

Ouch - hope he recovers quickly

Ha! I guilt tripped Sean into going to the breakfast and picnic today

He was being Mr. Antisocial and didn't care cause he said he'd never see these kids again.

So I went on to tell him how he only joined this school 2 years ago and
how friendly and accepting everyone was to him at the new school and how last night at the baccalaurete (sp?) ceremony many kids came up to him and were friendly and wanted to sign his year book and so he should shut up, suck it all up and go to these events and return everyone's friendliness if only for the next few days!

He went

Good for you. I think everyone needs a push now and then, me included if I'm out of my comfort zone. Ellis doesnt like trying new things, he gets

we miss everyone too.
believe me, you dont want to know all the stuff going on around here.
robins dads back in the hospital. getting violent in the nursing home again.

and that the risk of boring everyone to tears, thats all i'm going to say about that.

Sorry things arent going well

I'd better go now. Tinkerbell.RN may be around and I'm not allowed to talk to drawings like you.

[Karen Mouse]

Sure did. He was excited.

We just got done watching the Panama Canal show we taped back in December on the National Geographic Channel. After watching it and their hyped that it was dangerous, he said he was going to wear his life jacket the whole time we're in the Canal.

Photos???

At least Paige's boys are smiling. I didn't dare turn around to see the looks or gestures I was getting.

We got a taxi back... theres no way we could walk back aswell. None of us were smiling either


She's always been such a smiley girl. Here she is only one day old.

CUTE!

How about some party animals? O.K., maybe some "lying around" animals.

Love this one

I was thinking of Suz sleeping when I took this one.
