Congrats on the TOP OF THE PAGE.

Now we are off to climb Brasstown Bald, the highest mountain in Georgia. You drive over half way up then climb the last part. The kids aren't too exvited but I can't stay in the house all day again.

Good Morning!

The PRESSURE of going on vacation! I do have a lot to do today. Christian is going to games at the library, probably do some errands at that time. I'm trying to get more sewing done before the holiday. People really hit e-bay during that time!

Greg Tell Janel HAPPY BIRTHDAY

I'll check back in later.

I was thinking of doing the Halloween party before the cruise we are doing in October or just going to one of the parks the day we get back. Which would you suggest?

Also will it be crowded during the Halloween party? I think there will be some Halloween stuff on the boat.

Any costume ideas? We have tons of pirate stuff but I was thinking Titanic Survivors (or maybe some who didn't make it)???

I would do the Halloween Party...you'll love it. You can also get in the MK as early as 4:00 even though the party doesn't start until 7:00. They just give you your braclet when you enter. If you like doing rides and seeing the characters the party is the best time to go to the MK. The candy is an extra bonus too

Morning everyone!

Wow this was a busy board yesterday!

We were at dance last night from 5:30 until 11:30...everyone here is sleepy. It was a fablous show...the dancers are very talented. My girls had alot of fun...this is the last show for the year. Lenny Len from the movie Step Up 2 was mc. He really got the crowd going.

Today is Canada Day...so we'll have a barbque a little later and if our girls can stay up we will go to the fireworks.

 

[Jaime]

I would always go for the Halloween party! That's the way to do MK! No, it is NOT crowded. Have you been to a special party? They do special parades and AWESOME fireworks! The last I knew they were still doing them--360 degree fireworks! It is one of those awe-inspiring moments for the first time! I never get sick of MK

You should look to see what they are doing at the Halloween party! If it is still heavily pirate oriented the boys might still want to be pirates!

I agree! It was by far our favorite Fireworks.

I love the AKL pictures Chuck! We looked into buying DVC there on our last cruise...we decided not too because of the cost of airfare The cost of airfare will make it impossible for us to continue our annual trips. It looks very beautiful there! We are hoping to rent points to stay there before our next cruise or we may look into buying a small DVC membership of resale and just bank and borrow for a trip every third year.

I feel your pain on the airfare. Although we have been pretty lucky, even now, with gettting decent airfare. Philly is a main hub for US scare and Air Tran so it is not too bad, but I am sure it's just a matter of time. We can make the drive in about 18 hours if we had to.'

We love the AKL, we were going to buy 3 years ago, but decided to wait for AKV to open up. When we were there last year they were offeringa great incentive and we took the bait.

Melanie, It may be hard but you'll be glad you traveled with them. My boys travel like seasoned adults. (Well, at least I think so.)

Thanks for the encouragement Dawn.

My goal is to teach my boys to do some of it themselves eventually. Their father doesn't pack anything for himself, I have to pack everything.

Last year when we went to Yellowstone I decided to boycott and make him pack his own things. Don't know if you remember this story... but we ended up going to a MALL in Casper Wyoming to find him shirts. Because he hadn't packed ANY shirts for a week's vacation.

I also hope to teach them to pick up behind themselves too...

Good morning Nanaheads.

The smoke seems ot have cleard from the fires in California today. They say it will be back later today . So I had better enjoy looking at the sun now, it spoon will be behind a hazy cloud.

They are having the Olympic trials in Eugene, which isnt too far from me so that is all we hear on the TV all day and night. It seems most of our stations are local Eugene stations. i will be glad when they end this weekend.


Not much happening to write about. I still dont have my photos downloaded but will try later today to do that.

Going to hit 80 today with NO humidity

Hi Guys and Gals,

Hope everyone is doing well.

Its nice and sunny and warm here this evening so I have been to my MILs place who is away and had a BBQ and chilled in her garden just got home.

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Hi Lisa,
boy we are quiet today

We need to get a chatter going here about something, so I will post a question of the day for everyone to answer. That helps to get aquainted.



Who is your favorite Disney character and why?

My answer is Donald Duck.
I love him because he seems more real due to loosing his temper, he makes mistakes but appologises later. I can relate to him and goofy.
Mickey is to much a goody two shoes who never does anything wrong.
Plus Donald make sme laugh so hard I cry, especially whenhe is goofing around with Chip and Dale.


Ok, now its your turn to answer.

Kathy

Favorite Character? There are too many to choose. I guess I would have to say Mickey Mouse. Favorite princess....the Little Mermaid.

We did make out climb up Bald Mtn. this morning. We got there around 8:30, pulled into the parking lot and no one was there! I normally wouldn't have thought anything about it but with craxy hiker I was a little nervous. Took my time getting the kids out of the car and sunscreen/bug spraying them. Then the ranger came by to chit chat and told us that there had bee a lot of rattle snakes on the trail. We finally get away from him and head up the trail only to reach the summit and find out it is closed because they are spraying some toxic sealer on the stones.

So we headed into town and I shopped for Halloween fabric at an awesome quilt shop. They said to come back at the end of the month because they'll have a lot more in stock.

I am now going to make dinner and buy tickets to the Halloween party at MK for the Everest weekend.
