Hello Wendy, Bob, Lisa, Lorna, Denise, Lynn, and Linda!
hope you all have a

day!
Went out to lunch after church with Bobbi, (our daughter) and bumped into one of her 6th grade teachers! That wouldn't be so odd, except, Bobbi is now 30 and a teacher herself. The teacher actually recognized her! Boy I felt old when updated info was exchanged between the two of them.
Thanks for the b'day wishes. I appreciated them. I had a great day filled with lasting memories!
Lynn, here is my take on
MVMCP: we loved it! We went every year (starting with the first one) up until last year. I even have the first snow buttons! They have soap bubbles falling on main street only, to give you the impression of snow. At one time they took free family photos and sent them to you in the mail. They stopped doing that. You get free hot cocoa and cookies, but in 80 degree weather, who wants the cocoa! They had a hard time giving it away! We never went to any of the extra shows because everyone wanted to do the ride thing. We just thought that it really isn't worth it for us to go anymore. it cost extra even if you're a passholder and we felt that the extra cost just wasn't worth it for us.
When you go in Dec. remember to ask for a My first visit button for the baby! We had to go to city hall on main street to get ours for William.
